North Carolina A&T celebrated their centennial homecoming victory over Elon with a thrilling 13-10 win, but their celebration was marred by an unfortunate brawl. Shortly after securing the win, Elon players crossed the field to confront a North Carolina A&T player at their sideline. A brawl erupted before members of both coaching staffs intervened.
Neither team initiated the melee, with commentators clarifying that Elon players sought out a North Carolina A&T player. North Carolina A&T head coach Shawn Gibbs expressed his displeasure with the situation, stating, "I don’t know what really happened, so I don’t want to speculate too much, but I know that their players ran on our sideline.
You can’t do that. That was an ugly ending to our moment, and that’s what really made me mad." The Aggies' victory was powered by a strong rushing attack led by quarterback Kevin White. White rushed for 95 yards, including a 39-yard run, and threw for 98 yards with one touchdown and one interception. J.T. Smith and Shimique Blizzard also contributed significant yardage.
Elon scored its first touchdown in the third quarter, but North Carolina A&T secured the win with a game-winning field goal by Asher Holland in the fourth quarter.
