INDIANAPOLIS – The Butler football team is no stranger to playing the underdog role.
Butler is a non-scholarship program, meaning its roster is made up of players paying their own way through school with the help of academic scholarships and other forms of financial aid.
Last season, the Bulldogs were picked to finish fourth in the Pioneer Football League. Their Week 1 opponent, Youngstown State, started the season ranked 24th — in the entire Football Championship Subdivision.
