Reason number one why I am a bandwagon fan: the Ivy League football teams are not playing at their best nationally.

That's really cool. I know that some of the HBCU "classics" are tradition out east and in the south, but we haven't seen much of them in the Midwest right? I don't think I'd heard about this one or the one in Chicago before last year. Am I just way out of the loop, or are they relatively new?

The Chicago Classic has been going since 1997. For the last 4 seasons there hasn't been any FCS HBCUs in the game it's been SIAC and CIAA HBCUs playing in it until this season where Grambling is a participant. The Circle City Classic has ben going since 1983 but like the Chicago Classic since 2013 its been Central D2 HBCUs from SIAC/CIAA participating. Both the Chicago Classic and Circle City Classic attendance have fallen since the FCS HBCUs haven't been playing in them. Attendance for these two were usually over the 50,000 mark with the FCS HBCUs have now fallen around the 30,000 mark with the D2s. The Circle City Classic is usually one of the most attended Classics but the matchups lately haven't gotten the buz like they once did when it was the larger HBCUs playing.

The Citadel at Alabama - 17 Nov 2018, for a cool $500K. First time meeting. We do have three wins over SEC teams, but probably not this time.
Also got Ga Tech in 2019 and Ole Miss in 2025.
