Which Norfolk State Spartans games are worth watching in 2026?
Michael Vick's second season opens with a sharp early test: back-to-back FBS road trips to Old Dominion and Virginia, the latter marking the first-ever meeting between the two programs. The September 19 home date against Hampton for the 67th "Battle of the Bay" carries extra personal weight for Vick, whose wife Kijafa is a Hampton alumna.
The Homecoming matchup against Virginia University of Lynchburg on October 10 looks to build on last year's record crowd of over 47,000 fans, before Norfolk State enters a critical five-week stretch of MEAC play to close the season, capped by Senior Day against Howard on November 21.
