GSU hosts Arkansas-Pine Bluff for homecoming

GRAMBLING, Louisiana – The shiny 4-0 Southwestern Athletic Conference record next to Grambling's name means a lot more to the Tigers' fans than it does to head coach Broderick Fobbs.

To him, it's just another number and another step toward the ultimate goal of a SWAC championship.

"I've said from the beginning it doesn't matter where you're picked," Fobbs said. "You all start at the starting line at the same place. Our deal is to be objective driven, if you put enough good days together and put together a good week. We try to stay in the moment and make the most of that moment."

Fobbs, of course, is referring to last weekend's emotional win over Alcorn State, which was the program's biggest win since the 2011 SWAC title. Now the Tigers (4-3) move on to their next task —taking that same approach with them against Arkansas-Pine Bluff (1-4, 0-3) on Saturday for their annual homecoming.
