sports. Conferences like the Southland Football Conference are part of the reason behind this success. The Northwestern
State Demons football team is a part of the Southland, which means they go up against other Southland teams like McNeese State,
Texas State, Central Arkansas and many others.

State Demons have earned many accolades in the Southland
Football Conference. Many players have gone on from Northwestern State to make an impact on the pros, like Bobby Hebert,
Terrence McGee, Jackie Smith and others.
