The MEAC champions North Carolina Central Eagles come into the Celebration Bowl with an overall record of 9-2, while the SWAC champion Jackson State comes into the game undefeated. The game will kick off tomorrow at noon in Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium and will be broadcasted on ABC.
It's a second straight Celebration Bowl for Jack State under head coach Deion Sanders, who will coach his final game for the Tigers before he takes over as head coach at the University of Colorado. For NCCU, it's their first bowl game since 2016 when lost by a single point, and are looking to redeem themselves under head coach Trei Oliver.
