Houston - Named after Sam Houston. A great American Patriot. Key figure in the Texas Revolution. Houston represented everything that we do at the PEOPLE'S University. In Arkansas he lived among the Cherokee Tribe and was accepted as a citizen. Something many do not know about Houston is that he REFUSED to swear an oath of loyalty to the Confederacy when Texas seceded. He was a true Bulldog.

As we begin this season it is fitting that we begin in the city named for Sam Houston. His spirit will embody our great football this season. We will honor his legacy by defeating Oklahoma State in his city.

As Houston was accepted by the Native Americans, so shall we accept the Braves of Alcorn into our venue. When have our evil rivals ever hosted a team from the SWAC?

As Houston fought in Texas for Independence, so shall we. A date with the Aggies will finally give us our independence from the whiny screeches hailing from the north about who Mullen the Great can and cannot beat.

Finally, as Houston refused to accept the morally evil Confederacy, we shall take his spirit upon us to vanquish their namesake and return the Golden Egg to it's home.

Yes, my friends, Sam Houston will be with us throughout this glorious season. Beginning in his city we shall prevail, and fittingly end our year in victory against a common enemy, the evil confederate!
