The Braves are coming off of a SWAC Championship with high expectations in 2015.
The Alcorn State Braves will be heading into Atlanta in week one looking to build off of a fantastic season in 2014. The Braves were 10-3 (7-2) on the season and defeated Southern in the SWAC Championship game to capture their first conference title since 1993. Georgia Tech has scheduled some rather tough opponents in the "cupcake game" slots recently, and Alcorn State could potentially fill that role once again to open the year.
What to watch for:
The Braves were one of the most dangerous teams offensively in the FCS last season, and they'll be returning most of their weapons in 2015.
