ABOUT TUSKEGEE (2-6, 1-5 SIAC)
Tuskegee returns home for Homecoming looking to snap a six-game skid. Despite the record, the Golden Tigers have been competitive in several close contests, including a 27-20 loss at Fort Valley State and a narrow 7-3 defensive battle at Albany State.
 
Redshirt freshman wide receiver EJ Hall has emerged as one of the SIAC's most dynamic playmakers, leading the team with 595 receiving yards and five touchdowns, while running backs Johnny Morris and Ja'Khael Rowser have provided a balanced rushing attack.
 
Defensively, Tuskegee has been consistent, holding opponents to under 300 passing yards in six of nine games and forcing eight total takeaways. Linebacker Kaquan Kimber leads the team with 56 tackles and 9.5 tackles for loss, while Devon Irving Jr. has added 43 stops and 5.5 tackles for loss.
 
Special teams remain a strength, with kicker Lorcan Ryans ranking fourth nationally in Division II in field goals per game (1.5) and punter Callum Brent averaging 41.8 yards per punt. Return specialists Devon Cooper and Hall add explosive potential, while the coverage unit has limited opponents to under 20 yards per kickoff return in four straight games.
 
ABOUT LANE (0-8, 0-6 SIAC)
Lane travels to Tuskegee in search of its first win of the season under head coach Stanley Conner. Despite the record, the Dragons have shown flashes of potential on both sides of the ball, averaging 244.9 total yards per game while improving in red-zone efficiency over recent weeks.
 
Quarterback Nick Billoups leads the offense with 883 passing yards and six touchdowns in the air, along with 318 yards and two scores on the ground. Defensively, Lane has been tested against some of the SIAC's top teams but has forced nine turnovers and recorded 16 sacks through eight games, led by defensive back Jeremiah Malbroue (44 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss) and linebacker Jersey Chubb, who has 40 stops and 3.5 tackles for loss.
