“We are excited about the opportunity to travel to Las Vegas,” VP/Director of Athletics Ashley Robinson said. “This trip will give us an opportunity to bring the Jackson State experience out West. Our student-athletes will get the chance to play in a first-class venue in front of a national audience and showcase our university.”
According to organizers, the event will celebrate the rich legacy and culture of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), showcasing one of college football’s most storied rivalries. The matchup will mark the 73rd all-time meeting between the two Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) programs. Grambling earned a 41-20 victory in the last meeting on September 21, 2024.
“We are excited about the opportunity to play in Las Vegas,” head coach T.C. Taylor said. “This is a chance for our players to play in a world class stadium in front of a national audience. I can’t wait to see Tiger Nation show up in Vegas for the game.”
