Interesting game at home. Drake went 0-3 non con. Pounded Davidson appears to be very bad. And beat Dayton who appeared to be very good.

Only one coach last 25 years could beat Drake. Tall tale for Waddle & Co but a win here and we are looking at a winning season

Bulldogs: 21

Beacs: 10

Think our defense can play well and we can keep it relatively close but I would be shocked if the final score is in that 21-10 range. Drake brought over River Falls' Top Gun offense and are gonna score a lot. Super fast paced offense, wear down the defense type of thing. 51 points and 621 total yards against Davidson, 30 and 468 against Dayton. Keeping them under 30 would be incredible.

Drake 34, Valpo 20

I like the way they worked Ehrlich into the game plan.  Helps us now and in the future.

Looking for revenge as we defeated them in basketball at the Knapp Center last year. Without a doubt this is the second best team we have played this year. Will need to score 31 or more to come away with the win. Our pass defense is in for a track meet. Drake doesnt exactly have a good defense. A win here would be huge for the program.
