Bowie State and Tennessee State Top This Week's ADD'S HBCU SPORTS REPORT TOP TEN FCS/D2 POLLS

By ADD SEYMOUR JR.

The undefeated, offensive show that is Bowie State continues to lead the Division II ADD'S HBCU SPORTS REPORT Top Ten Poll this week, while Tennessee State remains unbeaten as the HBCU portion of their schedule ends.

Only three games in, Bowie State (3-0) has scored 145 points and averaged 48 points a game. They are led by quarterback Amir Hall, this week's CIAA Quarterback of the Week after he threw six touchdown passes and ran for two more in their big win over St. Augustine's Saturday.

Albany State (2-1) dropped from the top spot to No. 2 after losing to North Greenville Saturday, while Winston-Salem State (2-1) and Tuskegee (2-1) got important wins this past weekend.

In FCS football, Tennessee State (3-0) defeated our 10th ranked team, Florida A&M (1-2) to remain in the top spot in that poll.  They don't play anymore HBCU teams this season as they head into the teeth of a tough Ohio Valley Conference schedule, starting at tough Tennessee-Martin Saturday.

North Carolina A&T (3-0) creeps closer to the top spot after they defeated FBS Charlotte Saturday on the road while Grambling (2-1) looks more like the team that won last year's HBCU FCS national title.
