HOUSTON — HBCU Football in Week 11 will deliver two conference championship games in the CIAA and SIAC. However, pay close attention to the SWAC and MEAC, as divisional wins and losses will be critical for postseason positioning.

SIAC CHAMPIONSHIP

The heavily favored Benedict Tigers (10-0, 8-0 SIAC) and Albany State Golden Rams (6-4, 6-2 SIAC) will square off in the 2023 SIAC Football Championship Game. Chennis Berry's team is going for its second straight conference title against a Quinn Gray squad that's hot after winning four in a row. Kickoff will be at 1 PM ET inside Lakewood Stadium in Atlanta, GA.

Should Benedict win or lose, HBCU Legends still has them as the top HBCU football team in Division II for a second-straight season. Albany State is hoping for the upset...we shall see!

The Panthers score 39.1 points per game and chew up yardage at a rate of 398 yards per contest. Saturday's contest will be a battle of wills in the CIAA.
