The North Georgia Bulldogs minor league football team did something this past weekend that they have done for the past six seasons, win their season opener.

The Bulldogs traveled to Gadsden, Ala. Saturday to take on the Alabama Trojans. The Bulldogs won 33-27 to start their season on a wining note.

Running back Patrick Dupree led the offense as he had two touchdowns on the ground, and Clarance Goins also scored from the back field.

The defense got some excitement from defensive back Chris Warner as he took an interception back 60 yards for a touchdown just moments after stepping on the field. Linebacker Corey Boykin pulled down an interception as well. The entire defensive line provided great pressure all night.

Saturday the Bulldogs will head down to Decatur to take on the Georgia Falcons. The following week the Bulldogs return to Calhoun for their home opener at the Calhoun Rec Department at 7 p.m. The Bulldogs schedule will be posted at NorthGeorgiaBulldogs.com.
