Both teams are in the 2nd division and are HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) and have way less talent than the big 1st division teams.

Cool rivalry and fanfare down there, but I think few people without connections to the school want to watch something where they know it's on the lower end of the sport.
You mean like the Panda Game?
