Oct. 18 marked the 50th all-time meeting between rivals Butler and Dayton, with the Bulldogs coming away with a 23-17 victory. This game gets the Dawgs back on the winning track and ends Dayton’s five-game winning streak in the process.
The Bulldogs received the ball to start the game, but that drive quickly ended with a sack from redshirt sophomore defensive tackle Mirko Jaksic on redshirt junior quarterback Reagan Andrew to force a three-and-out. The Flyers could not move the ball on their opening drive either, turning it over on downs around midfield.
