🗣️ “I could definitely tell as a football team last week we were kind of tired of practicing against each other and want to spend some time preparing for a game and playing someone else.” - Head coach Zach Arnett

Coach Arnett has filled the summer with as much preparation as the Bulldog football team could have, and now, it will be displayed in their first game of the season against Southeastern Louisiana. Facing the defending Southland Conference champs, Coach Arnett has emphasized, will be a win the team will have to earn.
