Shaw Defeats Kentucky State; will face Fayetteville State in CIAA Championship
The talk coming into the Shaw vs. Kentucky State match-up was that the CIAA conference could not defeat the SIAC.  After all the CIAA had lost all of its match-ups to the SIAC this season.

The Eastern Division champion Bears did not believe the hype as they amassed 455 yards of total offense on their way to a 34-28 victory over the Thorobreds in the first-ever meeting between the two schools at John Baker Stadium.  More importantly, the win enhances the national playoff chances of the Bears, ranked 10th in the southeast region poll, and gives the Bears five-straight victories for the first time since they started the 1958 season 5-0.  It also gives them momentum going into the CIAA Championship game against Fayetteville State, who defeated Livingstone 63-19, next week at 1:00 p.m. in Durham, NC.  Read more

Prior to the season, I said that playing Kentucky State would be the toughest opponent that Shaw has played in the three years of football.  While the Thorobreds gave a valiant effort and only lost 34-28, the game was not that close.  To me it speaks volumes and shows where this football program really is.  Entry 4

Bears win Pivotal Match-up against Bulldogs
For Shaw, it was either risk going two games down in the CIAA's Eastern Division or win versus Bowie State.  The Bears chose the latter.

Shaw racked up 455 yards of total offense, including 362 on the ground in route to a 27-14 win over Bowie State at John Baker Stadium.  The Bears are now in a tie for first place in the division as Virginia State fell to Elizabeth City State 15-14.  Read more
