The 2019 South Carolina State Bulldogs football team represented South Carolina State University in the 2019 NCAA Division I FCS football season.
S.C. State was awarded the MEAC Co-Championship together with the North Carolina A&T Aggies.
[2] Both teams finished with 8–3 overall records and 6–2 within the MEAC, however due to Florida A&M being ineligible for postseason play, and by virtue of North Carolina A&T's victory over South Carolina State, the Aggies received the MEAC's bid to the Celebration Bowl.
As a “bubble team” in consideration for the 2019 FCS Playoffs S.C. State was not chosen, thus ending their season.
[3] In the MEAC preseason poll released on July 26, 2019, the Bulldogs were predicted to finish in sixth place.
