After a spring football season of working and waiting, coach Connell Maynor finally got what he wanted, and it was what he’s gotten throughout the season.

Maynor’s Alabama A&M Bulldogs were to take on Mississippi Valley State for a chance to host the Spring 2021 Cricket Wireless SWAC Football Championship Game Presented By Pepsi Zero Sugar.

But just like five prior weeks, A&M didn’t get on the field because its game with the Delta Devils was called off. That was fine with Maynor, whose squad (4-0, 3-0 SWAC) will square off Saturday against No. 25 Arkansas-Pine Bluff (4-0, 4-0 SWAC) for the championship of the Southwestern Athletic Conference.
