Grambling State University G-Men Are The Number One Team In the SWAC
|
Posted By: Reginald Culpepper on October 21, 2014 By: E’Vonne Gipson - GSU What a difference a year makes, the G-Men have improved tremendously, reigning over several teams weekend after weekend, and earning a record of 5-0 in the SWAC! The current record is double the G-Men’s total record for the two previous football seasons combined, after they started last year’s season 0-3.The winning streak began for the G-Men and first year Head Coach, Broderick Fobbs (former Grambling running back), when getting their first win against Jackson State. The G-Men continued snatching victories over Prairie View A&M, Alabama A&M, Alcorn State University and UAPB. All wins are wins to be proud of, but the win against Alcorn State University was special to the G-Men and the GSU fans because Alcorn was previously named the top-ranked team in the SWAC. The G-Men led the Braves the entire game, with the final score being 28-21 leaving the Tigers with a (4-3, 4-0) record. The G-Men confirmed that their comeback is mighty last Saturday at the Eddie Robinson Stadium during their Homecoming Game as they defeated UAPB 63-39. Grambling is on its longest winning streak since winning seven games in a row to capture the SWAC title in 2011.The Tiger spirit continues as the universities students, faculty, staff, and alumni are extremely proud of the marvelous turnaround from the athletic team, and hope to see the G-Men and Coach Fobbs become the 2014 SWAC Champions. The G-Men are the only undefeated team left in the SWAC. Alcorn State, which cracked the FCS Top 24 last week, fell to 5-2 (3-1) with the loss to the Tigers. The G-Men return to the field Saturday, November 1 at Texas Southern. If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
