The Butler football team has only one direction to go this season: Up. The Bulldogs ended a disappointing 2016 season at 4-7 overall and 2-6 in Pioneer Football League play. They lost three of their last four games.
Now in his twelfth season as head coach, Jeff Voris will begin his quest to capture Butler’s first outright PFL title since 2009.
The Bulldogs have a strong core of returning starters including junior wide receiver Pace Temple and redshirt senior running back DuVante Lane.
