The beauty of the game of football is that no matter what the size of the opposition, the discrepancies on paper or the predictions of sports personalities are, the outcome is still decided between the hash marks. In all scenarios, rain or shine, the team who can navigate their way through four quarters while reaching the scoreboard the most and turnover chart the least, wins the game.

In a society that increasingly values individual merit, it’s the team-first mentality that Ouachita Baptist players have invested in that has changed the course of program history from just working to compete with teams, to rising into championship conversation.
