2025 SWAC Football Championship Game: Date, time, location, TV channel, history
Prairie View A&M Clinches 2025 SWAC Championship
On December 6, 2025, Prairie View A&M triumphed over Jackson State to secure the SWAC Football Championship, edging them out with a close score of 23-21. The electrifying game took place at Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium, a venue chosen due to Jackson State’s tiebreaker advantage over Alabama State. This championship game not only featured the top teams from the East and West divisions but also aired live on ESPN2.
The 2025 matchup saw Jackson State emerge as the East division champion, while Prairie View A&M claimed victory for the West. Historically, the SWAC West leads with 13 championships to the East’s 12 since the championship’s inception in 1999. However, the East has dominated in recent years, winning the last seven titles prior to this event.
The SWAC utilizes a set of tiebreaker rules to determine home-game hosting rights, including head-to-head competition and conference records. These measures ensure a fair process in determining playoff positions among teams with similar performance records.
With this win, Prairie View A&M joins a list of prominent champions, contributing to a storied history that includes Grambling State’s significant total of 25 overall titles. Following the championship, Prairie View A&M will advance to the prestigious Celebration Bowl, where they will face the MEAC champion, enhancing the stakes for their next matchup.
