The college football season is over for all but two HBCUs, but three dozen players outside of North Carolina A&T and Grambling still have another game to play.
Nearly 40 student-athletes who have exhausted their eligibility at HBCUs will perform in front of fans, agents and scouts at the 2017 FCS Bowl in hopes of securing pro football attention. The showcase will take place in Daytona Beach, Florida on Dec. 10 at Daytona Beach Stadium.
