York Trophy in each of its first two years of existence (2007 and 2008). The trophy is contested between the four OVC schools from the state of Tennessee and named for Sgt. Alvin C. York, a war hero and native Tennes- sean. In 2007 the Tigers finished Sgt. York competition with a 2-1 record (losing its final game against UT Martin) and finished in a tie with Austin Peay (but took home the trophy due to a head-to-head win). Last season the Tigers were 3-0 in Sgt. York games. • The Tigers are fielding their 94th varsity football team this season and are playing in the Ohio Valley Conference for the 22nd season. The Tigers have won 14 Black College National Championships over the years - 1946, 1947, 1954, 1956, 1965, 1966, 1970, 1971, 1973, 1979, 1982. • Tennessee State plays its home games in one of the finest facilities in all the country - LP Field, home of the NFL’s Tennessee Titans. With a capacity of 67,500, it is the largest home facility used by a Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) team. The 2009 season marks the 11th year of play at LP Field (formerly The Coliseum) for TSU. The program was winless there in 2005, but posted a 4-1 mark at home in 2006 and 5- 0 mark there a season ago; TSU is 30-17 all-time in the facility. • Tennessee State has a long history of producing NFL talent, including former All-Pro players Richard Dent (Chicago Bears) and Ed “Too Tall” Jones (Dallas Cowboys). More recent NFL players include Randy Fuller - who played in Super Bowl XXX with Pittsburgh and Super Bowl XXXII with Atlanta - and Anthony Pleasant, who played with New England in both Super Bowl XXXV and XXXVII. In 2008, Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie was taken by Arizona with the 16th pick of the first round and went on to be a starter at cornerback in Super Bowl XLIII.
