North Carolina Central

[edit]

The main rivalry of the Aggies is against its in-state rival, North Carolina University. Commonly referred to as the also known as the "Aggie–Eagle rivalry", This particular rivalry dates back to the first Aggie Football game in 1924; in which the game ended in a 13-13 tie. Fans of Both Universities tend to place great emphasis on this rivalry and the intensity of it causes splits among many families, marriages, and other groups over their respective teams.

The intensity of the rivalry is driven by the proximity of the two schools, as both are only 55 miles apart via U.S. Interstate 85, the size of the two schools, as North Carolina A&T is the largest Historically Black College and University in the state with North Carolina Central being the second, and the fact that both schools are competing for many of the same students and athletes.

The most prominent sport in the rivalry is football. The two teams have been competing against each other since 1924. The series between the two schools began with the inaugural game ending in a 13-13 tie. Since 1924, the rivalry game has shifted from North Carolina Central and North Carolina A&T's respective campuses. Under the leadership of coach Lonnie P. Byarm, the Aggies began a 4 game winning streak that lasted from 1925–28. The 1930s saw a balance of power in the series as the Eagles, led by head coaches Bryd D. Crudup (1929–31) and Leo Townsend (1932–35), would even out the series at 4 wins, 4 losses, and 1 tie, by the end of the 1933 season.

A fight during the 1950s compelled the game to be moved to Wallace Wade Stadium on the campus of Duke University. It was at Wallace Wade, that a man drove his car onto the field during the game and parked at the 50-yard line.[1] The series record stands right now with the Aggies of North Carolina A&T leading with a record of 46-32-5.

The North Carolina A&T – Winston-Salem State rivalry, also known as the Aggie–Ram rivalry, the I-40 Rivalry, and other similar variations is an ongoing series of athletic competitions between North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University and Winston-Salem State University, both of which are located in North Carolina.

The intensity of the rivalry is driven by the proximity of the two schools, as both are only 30 miles apart via U.S. Interstate 40, the size of the two schools, as North Carolina A&T is the largest Historically Black College and University in the state and Winston-Salem State is the third largest, and the fact that both schools are competing for many of the same students and athletes. Although a less intense and bitter rivalry than that shared with North Carolina A&T – North Carolina Central rivalry, Fans of both Universities tend to place great emphasis on this rivalry.

Other Rivals

[edit]

Winston-Salem State

[edit]

Arguabily, the second most important rival of the Aggies is Winston-Salem State University. This particular rivalry dates back to the first meeting between the two in 1952, where the Aggies defeated the Rams 44-0. Although a less intense and bitter rivalry than that shared with North Carolina A&T – North Carolina Central rivalry, Fans of both Universities tend to place great emphasis on this rivalry.

The intensity of this rivalry is driven by the close proximity of the two schools, as both are aproximately 30 miles apart via U.S. Interstate 40, Conference affiliations, coaching personel and the fact that both schools are competing for many of the same students and athletes.
