Deion Sanders and Jackson State won their game against Alabama A&M on Saturday, 27-13, but lost quarterback Shedeur Sanders in the third quarter of the SWAC matchup.

The victory earned the Tigers a second straight trip to the SWAC Championship Game. This is the first time in program history Jackson State is 10-0.

The Tigers finish their regular season on Saturday against Alcorn State.

Heralded recruit Travis Hunter had a huge game, with the first TD of his college career and an interception.
