Keep trying, What is your point!
Dude, TSU has been playing PWC since the late 60's early 70's maybe the recent "P5"
But those teams are not The Fighting Irish! , the Icon or College Football!, the home of the "Gipper, Horning, Knute Rockne and (Rudy)",
Notre Dame will play Tennessee State in football in 2023 — the Irish’s 1st game against an HBCU or an FCS team
SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Notre Dame will make history in its 2023 home opener by playing Tennessee State on Sept. 2, marking the first time the Irish have faced a Historically Black College or University.
It also will be Notre Dame’s first game against a team that competes in the Football Championship Subdivision.
School officials made the announcement Tuesday and credited second-year Tigers coach Eddie George, the 1995 Heisman Trophy winner at Ohio State, and Tennessee State athletic director Mikki Allen with creating the vision to schedule the game that NBC will televise nationally.
“We’re excited to bring a pair of great academic institutions that are steeped in tradition together in 2023,” Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick said in a statement. “I’m thrilled we’re able to bring the Tigers and the Irish together for a weekend that will feature programs with over 20 combined national titles, the Aristocrat of Bands and the Band of the Fighting Irish.”
Tennessee State has won more than 550 games and lists former NFL stars Richard Dent, Ed “Too Tall” Jones, Claude Humphrey and Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie among its alumni.
The Tigers won the 1973 Division II national championship and 12 Black College national championships since 1946 but haven’t reached the FCS playoffs since 2013.
“TSU and Notre Dame are two iconic programs that have helped shape today’s college athletics landscape,” Allen said. “We are setting the foundation for long-term success under Coach George’s leadership. The goal is that TSU will be a destination program for the next generation of student-athletes to come.”
Notre Dame opens the 2023 season against Navy on Aug. 26 in Dublin, Ireland.

The point is, one of you came up with the excuse of your administration not playing these games because of being locked into classics games. All that other foolishness about how long TnSU have been playing who and its different because it's the fighting Irish is illrelevant to the thread. Having said that, TnSU check isn't going to be any different than any other P5 game. You don't get extra credit because they're Norte Dame. So save that foolishness for your alum and fan folklore. Lol..
Oh and FYI, the only Power five school TnSU has ever played was Vanderbilt. Since you went there. As I've said before, you guys have a very distorted view of who you really are and where you actually stand in hbcu and college football. There's nothing that TnSU has accomplished that hasn't already been done by a SWAC school. So stop taking it there because you will get educated every time by anybody who actually follows "hbcu" sports.

If TSU - ND is irrelevant, so is this "nonsense about" the SWAC, as is the subject playing P5 Schools.
Question: and its true TSU played VANDY, part of the SEC (P5) as is Mississippi State last Season and they are part of the SEC, the same P5-Conference as VANDY and it does not take a "Rocket Scientist" to knot that!
FYI, I said TSU has played PWC and the P5 schools, "language, title terminology" as it is used is a "Johnny Come Lately" and does not date back to the 60's. According to the internet,
The term Power Five is not defined by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), and the origin of the term is unknown. It has been used in its current meaning since at least 2006.
Therefore, the term is "Null and Void" and only is a figment of one's imagination. That's like one of Grambling players said "Grambling is the ND of Black College Football" If there is such a thing, it's should be TSU, if I am not mistaken TSU has had more undefeated seasons and won the most of the "Mythical Black College Championships and have the best W-L record against HCBU, except Grambling.
Besides, ND is not part of the P5, they are Independent

Here we go again, getting all in your Jada Pinkett-Smith. Ok you played two. So what? Nobody asked. Again the thread is poking fun at yet again some of you going out of your way to always blame being associated with hbcus for your administration being stuck in the past and failing to schedule these types of games. While the SWAC has been doing so for a couple of decades now. |

No exactly what is your point, by attaching the games between other SWAC schools, what "P5" has SU played.
Fact: the NCAA does not recognize the Mythical P5 Programs. The (NCAA) recognize only Conference's and to prove that you were incorrect that VANDY was the only P5 Conference TSU played. Is Mississippi State part of the SEC (P5) or not.
I forgot to mention, in the past TSU played University of Louisville.
If my memory is correct, the series is 1-1
