NCCU must beat Norfolk State on the road to earn a spot in Atlanta for the MEAC championship and a chance to play in the Celebration Bowl.“I guarantee you that we’re not running around talking about ring sizes and Celebration Bowl and all that. We’re not,” Oliver says. “We’re talking about what do we have to do to come up with a game plan to beat these folks by one point. That’s it.”
Coach Trei Oliver is focused on the task at hand and not looking ahead to what could be. QB Davius Richard has been having an impressive season, accounting for 31 scores. Norfolk State has struggled all season, ranking last in rushing defense among other things. Despite this, Oliver is not underestimating them nor taking them lightly.
