After playing two pseudo-conference games, Grambling officially opens SWAC play against Prairie View A&M at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas. Grambling beat SWAC foes Jackson State and Alcorn State in games that won’t count in the conference standings. Last week Grambling topped Langston 13-2, while Prairie View beat Morehouse, 28-17.

KEYS TO VICTORY
Grambling’s offense must find a way to put some points on the board and take the pressure off its defense. Grambling’s scoring output has decreased in each of the last four games. There’s only so much the Tigers’ defense can do. Sooner or later, Grambling will run into a team that can’t be beat with defense alone.
