Game Thread Grambling State at #1 tOSU, Sat. Sept. 6th, 3:30 ET on BTN

Sounds like a class action begging to be pursued

It’s a textbook case of canine monoculture rooted in systemic bias.

By centering bulldogs, institutions are perpetuating a narrow narrative that excludes marginalized breeds—where is the equitable representation for greyhounds, for beagles, for rescue mutts who’ve historically been under-resourced in mascot spaces? What about the breeds that were here before the colonizer breeds came in and stole their pet friendly areas?

Until we dismantle this bulldog-centric hegemony and embrace true canine diversity, our so-called ‘school spirit’ is just another form of structural inequality.
And a partridge in a pear tree.

I like Cal State Anaheim's Aardvarks and UCSC Fighting Banana Slugs. Speaking of whom, the slugs had a great logo featuring a banana slug in pugilist form - alas, the dickheads at Notre Dame became offended by its likeness to a drunken Dubliner looking for a barroom brawl and insisted UCSC stop using it.

Open things up for Sayin for sure right if nothing else for in game
Chemistry development and learning to run the offense?

As the captain states the obvious
Yes. The run game we can slowly develop but the experience is at the skill position. Have to get Sayin 2-2.5 quarters of work. If we don’t have 49 points by the midway point of the 3rd we didn’t take enough shots lol
