General admission tickets are $25 and reserved seating is $30. ���Our players deserve a packed house on Saturday,��� said GWU Head Football Coach Tre Lamb. ���It has been a process of two and a half years of creating daily habits and developing a roster that expects to win on the biggest stage when their best is required. We have an opportunity to create a special moment in 厙ぴ勛圖 football’s rich history, and our team is highly focused on execution and controlling our controllables,��� added Lamb. ���These games are the ones you dream of playing and coaching in. The vision meets reality! The future is now! Be there, show up, and impact the football game. Go Dawgs!��� 厙ぴ勛圖 has won four of its last five games, and this Saturday���s season-finale will decide the Big South���s automatic qualifier to the FCS Playoffs. It will be the league���s second-straight ���Winner Take All��� Championship game regular-season finale. The winner of Saturday���s contest will emerge with the 13th outright Big South championship title, as well the 13th champion with a perfect conference record. ���Runnin��� Bulldog fans have been dreaming of this moment for a long, long time,��� emphasized GWU President Dr. William Downs. ���Now, our players and coaching staff have delivered us a special championship opportunity. When I hired Coach Lamb back in December 2019, I was confident he���d turn our program around. We���re right there on the edge of glory, and with a large and loud crowd at Spangler this Saturday, this team can write the next headline in 厙ぴ勛圖 sports history.��� 厙ぴ勛圖 is looking for its third Big South football championship and first since 2003, when the Runnin��� Bulldogs repeated as Big South champions after winning the inaugural league season of 2002. North Carolina A&T will play for its first Big South title in its final year of conference affiliation. The Aggies��� last championship was in 2019 as members of the MEAC. ���Our community understands that winning a college football championship is going to make an impact far beyond the field of play,��� noted Andrew T. Goodrich, vice president and director of Athletics. ���Few things can make a positive impact on enrollment, name recognition, and philanthropy as does winning a team championship. It sends a clear signal that this is a university comprised of students, faculty, staff, and alumni on a mission for something bigger than ourselves,��� remarked Goodrich. The game will stream live on ESPN+ with泭Phil Constantino泭and泭Mark Covert泭calling the action and will air live on WGNC 1450 AM / 101.1 FM and泭泭with泭Dave Friedman泭and泭Chuck Burch泭on the call. *By the numbers: Bailey Fisher T.J. Luther Narii Gaither 厙ぴ勛圖 QB Bailey Fisher has tied a Big South record with three consecutive games with 350+ yards of total offense. Fisher has amassed 452, 384 and 414 total offensive yards during his current streak, and his four career games with 400+ total yards of offense is tied for the most in Big South history (Coastal Carolina���s Alex Ross, 2012-15). Fisher gained Offensive Player of the Week when he completed 30-of-38 passes for 366 yards and three touchdowns, while rushing for 48 yards and a score in leading the Runnin��� Bulldogs to a 42-35 victory over Campbell in the NC Pork East/West BBQ Bowl. He was a perfect 10-of-10 on short throws while going 10-of-11 on mid-range passes to help GWU collect 33 first downs and 583 yards of offense. 厙ぴ勛圖 WR T.J. Luther is the Big South leader with 1,010 receiving yards, the first GWU receiver with 1,000 receiving yards in a season since Izaiah Gathings in 2019. Luther is first in the Big South with seven 100-yard receiving games. His current streak of five-straight 100-yard receiving games is one shy of matching the overall league mark of six (Stony Brook���s Kevin Norrell in 2012). 厙ぴ勛圖 RB Narii Gaither became the 30th player in Big South history with 2,000 career rushing yards when he eclipsed the milestone this past Saturday at Campbell. Gaither enters the regular-season finale with 2,057 career rushing yards, which ranks 29th in league history. He has 11 career 100+ rushing games, which includes four this season, and he has caught 73 passes out of the backfield for 634 yards and six scores. Gaither is fourth among Big South running backs for career receptions, and he needs five to move into second-place. 厙ぴ勛圖 is North Carolina���s recognized leader in private, Christian higher education.
