Alabama A&M has changed its opponent for their home game on Saturday, September 14. The Bulldogs will now play the NAIA’s Georgetown (Kentucky) Tigers out of the Mid-South Conference in the first matchup between the two schools.

The Bulldogs will take on Kentucky State from the Division II Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) a week prior to Georgetown’s visit. The Bulldogs’ other two non-conference games are on the road against Auburn on Saturday, August 31 and Austin Peay on Saturday, September 21.
Alabama A&M is one of 42 FCS programs scheduled to play non-Division I opponents in 2024. At the time of posting, 51 such games have been scheduled for the upcoming 2024 season.
