The 2022 college football season is right around the corner, which means HBCU homecoming season will be here before you know it, so we compiled a 2022 HBCU Homecoming Schedule to help you keep track.
The majority of HBCU homecomings will take place in the month of October, with the bulk of them coming in a three-week span in the middle of the month.
October 22 will be the biggest HBCU homecoming day of the year with 11 HBCUs having homecoming games. It will be a particularly big day in the Magnolia State. All three SWAC HBCU schools – Alcorn State, Jackson State and Mississippi Valley State – will host their homecoming on that day.
Bethune-Cookman has the distinction of being the program booked for most HBCU homecoming games. B-CU will play in four homecomings besides its own, playing at Prairie View, Mississippi Valley State, Tennessee State and Alabama A&M – in addition to hosting its own homecoming on Nov. 5, against Alabama State.
