WINSTON SALEM, North Carolina -- Everybody loves a winner. So it's no surprise that Winston-Salem State's 12-0 football team has received extra love and attention."I was in the store the other day, and I was wearing a Winston-Salem State sweatshirt, and three people told me 'Go Rams,' " said punter Landen Thayer, who is from Clemmons and played at West Forsyth High School. "That's pretty cool when you hear stuff like that."
No. 3-ranked WSSU, which defeated California (Pa.) 35-28 in last week's second round of the Division II playoffs, will be at home again Saturday, against No. 5 New Haven in the quarterfinals. Kickoff is set for noon. Even though WSSU's first playoff game came over Thanksgiving weekend, it drew a crowd of nearly 8,000 — the third largest crowd of the season at Bowman Gray Stadium.
