And on Saturday, that was the case.

Alcorn State quarterback Aaron Allen led Team Godfather a 21-15 win over Team Gaither in what was an offensive MVP performance.

Miles College defensive back was named the Defensive MVP.

HBCU football players were selected and invited to the event by the Pigskin Showdown scouting staff with overall ratings and grades of each player involved.

Players participated in four pro-style practice sessions and game while being evaluated by professional football league scouts. Scouts, coaches, and executives from the NFL, CFL, XFL, and USFL were invited to attend the HBCU Pigskin Showdown.
