I love the first team ALL-MEAC squad from 1972.   NCCU dominated the offense.

I completely agree with Sloping Hills. That outstanding Team played at (Duke's) Wallace Wade Stadium, for the first annual Pelican Bowl against Grambling, in an event that was tagged as the National Black Football Championship game.

Take Care!
