Alabama A&M will be a mystery to onlookers this year on offense due to new coaching staff. The defense has 17 returning players and should be the strongest part of the team. New Head Coach Anthony Jones comes over from Morehouse College to rebuild the program. He improved the Morehouse program in just three seasons and hopes to do the same at  Alabama A&M.  

Spectators should look for an improvement, but expect much from the Bulldogs as they most likely struggle on offense.  The tentative schedule doesn’t improve winning odds much, looking to be (1-4) mid way in the season. The win may come against Prairie View A&M and that can be a difficult task with PV's increasing developments. 

Arkansas Pine- Bluff gave the key ingredient in 2000 on how to win in the passing dominant SWAC. Slow the game down, run the clock and stay consistent. Alabama needs to do this in order to win. 

Prediction 3-7  Overall season

(Predicted wins: Prairie View, Miss. Valley, Arkansas Pine-Bluff)
