ATLANTA — From Jackson State's victory over Alcorn State in its final regular-season matchup to its win over Prairie View A&M in the SWAC Championship game on Dec. 4, Deion Sanders's message to his players remained the same: We not done yet, we got one more.
The Tigers (11–1, 8–0) will play in their first Celebration Bowl in program history when they take the field Saturday against South Carolina State at noon E. In a clash between champions of the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) and the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC), Sanders and Jackson State have another opportunity to add more history to an unprecedented 2021 season.
