Montgomery is hosting one of the oldest HBCU football rivalries in the country in October.
The 86th Tuskegee-Morehouse Classic will be held at the Cramton Bowl, which seats 21,000, in Alabama’s capital city.
“We are proud to partner with my Morehouse brother, Mayor Steven Reed, to uphold the legacy of this historic rivalry,” Morehouse athletics director Harold Ellis said in a news release April 18.
Tuskegee’s Golden Tigers and Morehouse’s Maroon Tigers began playing in Columbus, Georgia, in 1936. The game was played there for most of its history, except for a three-year run in Birmingham 2020-23.
