GSU quarterback promising

SHREVEPORT, LA — Grambling might be lacking experience at quarterback, but if Saturday night's game against Louisiana Tech is any indication, the Tigers are not lacking talent. Tech defeated GSU 20-6, but even in defeat Grambling's Anthony Carrothers, making the start as a true freshman, showed flashes of being an explosive playmaker.

He completed 9-of-16 pass attempts for 86 yards and was intercepted once. He was also an elusive threat on the ground, gaining 39 yards (he ended the game with 14 net yards, having lost 25 yards on sacks).



Opening survivor: Bulldogs start fast, struggle but beat Tigers

SHREVEPORT — The question heading into Saturday night's Louisiana Tech-Grambling State game wasn't "Who is going to win?" The questions were "How good is Tech going to feel about its win, and how bad is Grambling going to feel about its loss?"

No disrespect to the Tigers, but they're probably the weakest team Tech will face this year. In turn, the Bulldogs are nowhere close to being...

Grambling loses 3 to injuries

The pomp and pageantry of college football was in full display on Saturday night in Shreveport's Independence Stadium with Grambling State University and Louisiana Tech University meeting for a historic first time.

Located just five miles, in the piney woods of Lincoln Parish, the schools have met in other sports but avoided the gridiron, where emotions can run to a fever pitch, for oh these many years. Fortunately for both schools, they picked a perfect fall night for the meeting that attracted one of the largest crowds either school will draw this season.
