Texas Southern Football Faces Alabama A&M in SWAC Road Finale
Texas Southern travels to Alabama A&M for a 2 p.m. Saturday matchup at Lewis Crews Stadium, with live coverage on SWAC TV and KTSU 90.9 FM. The Bulldogs are chasing the SWAC East title, while the Tigers are looking to close their road schedule on a strong note after last week’s loss ended their hopes for a second straight winning season.
By the Numbers- Alabama A&M ranks No. 2 in the SWAC in total offense (453.3 yards per game) and defense (301.7 yards allowed per game).
- Bulldogs quarterback Cornelious Brown has thrown for 2,498 yards, second-most in the conference.
- Texas Southern running back Athean Renfro averages 112 yards per game and needs 24 more yards to reach 1,000 for the first time.
- The teams’ last three of four meetings were decided by 14 points or fewer.
Alabama A&M is tied with Jackson State atop the SWAC East but has lost the head-to-head tiebreaker. The Bulldogs need to win out and have Jackson State lose to clinch the division; Texas Southern, meanwhile, can no longer finish with consecutive winning seasons.
State of Play- Texas Southern’s first road game since Oct. 3 is also its final road game of the season.
- The Tigers beat Alabama A&M last year, ending the Bulldogs’ five-game winning streak.
- Texas Southern receiver Davion Walker played for Alabama A&M in 2025.
Texas Southern will try to disrupt Alabama A&M’s division-title push and build momentum for its final stretch, with five of its last six games scheduled in Houston.
Bottom LineAlabama A&M has more at stake in the standings, but Texas Southern has recent success against the Bulldogs—and a chance to make the SWAC East race harder to resolve.
