Historic Howard-Hampton Showdown Shifts to Audi Field: What’s Behind the Move?
One of HBCU football’s premier rivalries is returning to the nation’s capital. The Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference announced in a statement on Wednesday that Howard University and Hampton University will once again meet at Audi Field for the annual “Battle of the Real HU” on Oct. 3 at 3 PM EST, with the game being broadcast on HBCU Go.
The matchup returns to the home of D.C. United, where the rivalry has become one of the marquee events on the HBCU football calendar.
“Audi Field exists to give this city’s biggest moments a stage and this rivalry has become one of them,” said Danita Johnson, President of Business Operations for D.C. United. “Hampton and Howard bring generations of pride into this building every time they meet here. Students, alumni, families, bands, all of it. We are honored to host it again and our job is to make sure the game gets the setting it deserves.”
