The Prairie View Panthers are focusing not only on repeating as SWAC West Champs, but winning the Celebration Bowl in December.
— Bubba McDowell is optimistic about his Prairie View Panthers football team contending for the SWAC Football Championship. On the steamy Saturday afternoon, the Panthers scrimmaged in preparation for their upcoming season opener against the Texas Southern Tigers in the Labor Day Classic.Since the previous starting quarterback, Trazon Connley, left the program after his senior year, McDowell has been waiting for one of his signal-callers to emerge as the offensive leader this offseason.
Peters tossed a gorgeous fade for a score in the scrimmage's fourth quarter and handled the RPO plays well. Coley commanded the offense with poise and properly aligned his offensive players. He evaded rushers to extend drives in the third period of action.Although the Panthers coach will have to make a difficult call on his starter, he points to the offensive improvements. "The offense won today. They came out and did what they were supposed to do.
The old football saying is true: "A defense can't have fun, unless they it can stop the run." Prairie View enhanced the defensive line this offseason. "Coach Rock and his staff went out defensively and, you know, beat up that d line. So we're relying a lot on the D-line to come out and do what they're supposed to do. This is the first time since I've been here that we have been that big across the board from the 1st group, 2nd group, to 3rd group.
