Prairie View A&M football: Q&A with RB Donald Babers

Babers enters this season atop the depth chart at running back after rushing for a team-leading 482 yards with five touchdowns in 2007. Unfortunately for the Panthers, Babers was mostly sidelined with a ankle injury down the the stretch last season.

Here's a transcript of the interview:

RT: Donald, you were a part of the group that brought Prairie View its first winning season since 1976, but heading into this year, expectations are much different. You're expected to be good. How does it feel now knowing that you have those kinds of expectations placed on you?

DB: Well, you know a lot of people thought it was a fluke that we had a winning season. We know that we have a good team now because we believe in ourselves. We believe that nobody but Prairie View can beat us. I believe that we can actually compete against anybody in the country, even a Division I-A school.
