Drake pulled away from Butler 24-19 in a battle of the Bulldogs on Nov. 1.

In a game with big Pioneer League championship implications, Drake set the tone on the opening play with a 66-yard touchdown by first-year running back Nick Herman. They kept the momentum going by forcing Butler to go three-and-out.

On their second possession, Drake had a 10-play drive but ended up missing a 26-yard field goal from the right hash to keep the score at 7-0.
