The Indiana Black Expo announced on this week that Circle City Classic® will now make the long-term rivalry between the Central State (Ohio) University Marauders and Kentucky State University Thorobreds a new tradition in Indianapolis. Both teams have signed a 3-year agreement with 2 additional 1 year options to host their legendary game in Indianapolis. This year's game will take place on Saturday, September 26, 2015.
Tanya Bell, IBE president & Chief Executive Officer said,
"This is an exciting day for Circle City Classic®; Classics across the country are evolving which requires unique approaches. The multi-year agreement with Midwest rival teams will help us better plan, avoid our traditional date bumping up against college homecomings and increase our chances for warmer weather."

2015: Saturday, September 26, 2015
2016: Saturday, September 24, 2016
2017: Saturday, September 23, 2017
