The  Warhawks  football  team  has  historically  been  neck-Âand- neck  with  the  UW-ÂOshkosh  Titans  football  team,  and  Saturday’s  Homecoming  Game  was  no  different. After  blowing  out  opponent  after  opponent  and  posting  two  shutouts,  the  ’Hawks  won  their  closest  battle  of  the  season  against  the  Titans,  24-Â7,  in  front  of  a  record-Âbreaking  13,627  fans. “It  was  a  physical  football  game,â€?  head  coach  Lance  Leipold  said.  “It  got  off  to  a  good  start,  but  you  can  see  the  effects  of  a  veteran  defense  that  Oshkosh  has.  There  are  a  lot  of  seniors  in  that  defensive  front  seven  that  I  won’t  miss  next  year.â€?
