Hardnosed defense by Prairie View denies the Aggies a late field goal. Prairie View blocked three punt kicks in the second quarter and returned two for touchdowns by defensive back Val Ford.
For the first Los Angeles Angel City Classic, the Farmers Insurance Group made the Los Angeles Coliseum a showcase. North Carolina A & T of Greensboro, North Carolina and Prairie View A & M of Texas, both Historically Black Colleges, made it worth the trip for its fans. The celebrities and all who attended can be proud of the accomplishment. Prairie View's victory over the Aggies by the score of 22-7 gave the Panthers a place in the classic's history.

Supporting A&T Aggie Bulldogs were Jeff Gordon of L.A. and Clint Browne of Greensboro, N.C.
Their tough defense kept the Aggies from producing points. By blocking three punt kicks in the second quarter the Aggies were kept off the scoreboard but put the Panthers on the score board  with two of the blocks returned for touchdowns by defensive back Val Ford. The Aggies only score came in the third quarter.
