North Carolina A&T (1-2, 0-0 MEAC)@Morgan State (2-2, 1-0 MEAC)

Time: Saturday, 1 p.m.

Site: Hughes Stadium

Radio: 88.9 FM

Series: Morgan leads 40-33-3.

What's at stake: After starting the season on a two-game skid, the Bears have a chance to win their third straight game, against a North Carolina A&T program they've had success against in the past. Morgan coach Donald Hill-Eley has a 7-2 record against the Aggies since 2002 and has won the past five meetings between the teams.

Key matchup: The Bears' defense held Howard scoreless in the first half last week and gave up just three field goals in the second half. Both of Morgan's wins this season have been spearheaded by stout defensive efforts. They'll need an answer for North Carolina A&T WR Wallace Miles, who has 390 yards receiving and three touchdowns.

Players to watch: Morgan redshirt freshman LB Michael Dallas II collected MEAC Defensive Player of the Week honors for an impressive performance against Howard last week. Dallas made nine tackles, forced two fumbles and returned one for a touchdown. The Aggies also have a quality linebacker in D'Vonte Grant, who recorded 12 tackles against Coastal Carolina last week.
