GRAMBLING, Louisiana -- Broderick Fobbs graded his Grambling Tigers out at a "B-/C+" performance following a 63-39 homecoming win over Arkansas-Pine Bluff.
It's hard to believe a 5-0 start in the SWAC would warrant such an evaluation given where the Tigers (5-3, 5-0) were this time last year, but Fobbs shut the door on 2013 from the moment he left McNeese State to be the head coach at his alma mater.
"Maybe my bar is a little too high but sometimes people look at the score and think, 'they're really clicking,' but I think we can play better than that," Fobbs said. "(Pine Bluff) did a good job keeping the ball away from us so we had to make sure we possessed the football and kept our defense off the field in the second half."
Grambling came into the game planning to run anywhere from 90-100 plays, but a combination of offensive big plays and third down defensive woes allowed Pine Bluff to dictate a slower tempo.
