SCSU Pough's worries include ‘tough game, quarterback shortage

ORANGEBURG, South Carolina -- Despite an undefeated record in Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference play, it’s far from a relaxing mood with the South Carolina State football team.

In fact, head coach Buddy Pough acknowledged Monday being worried about Saturday’s opponent, North Carolina Central, at Oliver C. Dawson Stadium.

“They’ve got a real good way about doing things,” he said. “So this game Saturday, we’re expecting maybe as tough a game as what we had this past week.”

S.C. State (4-2, 2-0) posted a 13-0 shutout win over North Carolina A&T at the Atlanta Football Classic. In the Eagles (2-3, 1-0), the Bulldogs face a team with its third head coach (Jerry Mack) in three years but whose approach towards building the program is similar to S.C. State.
