Savannah State meets Hampton on homecoming Saturday

Savannah, Georgia -- There are still four games to go in the football season for the Savannah State Tigers. After losing six of the first seven, you might think first-year coach Steve Davenport would be looking at younger players.

But Davenport isn’t using the final part of the season as an audition for next year. Particularly today on the Tigers’ homecoming.

We’re going to play the best players. The guys we have playing are the older guys and they’re the best players.
