Grambling State AD Trayvean Scott’s Messages for Fans Ahead of Tigers’ Matchup Against Jackson State

Grambling State athletic director Trayvean Scott is gearing up for a highly anticipated matchup against Jackson State this Saturday at Eddie Robinson G. Stadium, and he has a few messages for fans. Scott is urging supporters to wear gold to match the team’s gameday uniform colors and to bring their loudest cheers to the game. But perhaps most importantly, he is advising everyone to arrive early to beat the expected traffic and crowd, as a rare sell-out crowd is anticipated.

With Grambling State coming off consecutive wins, including a thrilling overtime victory last weekend, there is a renewed sense of enthusiasm surrounding the team. The Tigers’ promising 2-1 start to the season has fans buzzing, and the prospect of hosting a “vibrant and rabid” Jackson State fanbase only adds to the excitement.

“The Hole,” as Eddie Robinson G. Stadium is affectionately known, has a capacity of 19,600, and Scott believes that Saturday’s game could potentially see a record-breaking turnout. The largest crowd to ever attend a Grambling home game was back in 1994, with 25,347 fans in attendance.

Jackson State’s last visit to Grambling resulted in a dramatic win for the Tigers, and Scott is confident that his team is ready to showcase their talent once again. “Our guys embrace it. Our staff embraces it,” he said. “It will be an opportunity to show why we are Grambling.”

As the stage is set for what promises to be a memorable night of college football, fans are eagerly anticipating the showdown between these two historic programs. The energy is high, the stakes are even higher, and all eyes will be on Grambling State as they look to defend their turf against a formidable opponent.
