Nothing like a 65 year losing streak to bring celebration to campus. I wonder if anyone even knows that their team won yet. Do their games even draw any attendance?

Anyway, congrats.

Congratulations. But no time to rest on laurels, as you have to go to Muskogee to take on Bacone.

Congratulations to the Scots!

This is the first year that Morthland has had a team. It’s a tiny school in West Frankfort IL.

“Bring celebration to campus?” I’d be on my way, if I knew where this place is located. Because I assure you, there’s a celebration going on.

Just to set the record straight, they hadn’t competed in football since 1951. They started up again last year...

So it’s true this is the first win since 1951, but only because they haven’t played.

Even better! Despite their faults, Southerners know how to celebrate!

I think UVM (University of Vermont) is still without a win, so they have a long losing streak...

Or you could say they haven't lost in Football since '72...
