The Panthers are looking to get some revenge on the Trojans and win a conference title on Saturday afternoon.
They had won six games in a row and were coming off a dominating 91-0 win over Bluefield State University the week before.
Their offense had been clicking as they had scored at least 31 points in each of their six straight wins and had scored at least 56 in their last three.
They were slowed down at times in their loss last week, but will look to get their offense back on track and get the win.
