The Bears have been named the FCS National Team of the Week.
Morgan upset No. 16 Richmond in Saturday's season opener.
Congrats to @MorganStBears and @MorganStCoach!
This MEAC team, which finished 4-7 in coach Damon Wilson's first season last year, limited Richmond to 264 yards of offense, forced four turnovers and had five sacks.
Morgan State looks to keep the momentum building as they take on Akron next.
