Fewer penalties, more big plays are focus for SCSU Bulldogs

ORANGEBURG, South Carolina -- Having lost two straight games in which his team held the opponents to 17 points apiece didn’t put a smile on South Carolina State head football coach Buddy Pough’s face during his weekly press conference on Monday.

But the mention of his team having no more Sunday or Thursday games, but having six Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference games remaining on upcoming Saturdays, did produce a grin. And it doesn't hurt that three of those games will be at home, inside Oliver C. Dawson Bulldog Stadium.

The Bulldogs, now 2-3 on the season, are 1-1 in MEAC play after falling 17-14 at conference foe Bethune-Cookman this past Thursday night.

Next up is this Saturday’s home game against the winless Howard Bison (0-5 overall, 0-3 in MEAC play).
