Yes, it is homecoming and the crowd will be large. But the Eagles will have to put on blinders for about three hours and play their game against Central State. They can enjoy the rest of the festivities after the final play.
WELCOME BACK SCOTT
Quarterback Michael Johnson had one of his best games two weeks ago, and it was without wide receiver Will Scott. But now that he's back in the lineup, Johnson needs to find Scott so he can tear up the Mauraders' secondary.
RACE TO THE BALL
NCCU smothered Central Methodist in its most recent game. The Eagles need to have the same type of effort today against Central State in order to eliminate any hope by the Marauders. Central State has struggled with putting points on the scoreboard, and NCCU needs to send a message that those struggles will continue.
-- JOE JOHNSON
