The Bulldogs were unable to continue their win streak on the road this past week. Drake fell 35-10 against Dayton last Saturday. The loss puts the Bulldogs at 2-3 overall and 1-1 in the Pioneer Football League.
At the beginning of the game the Bulldogs chose to defer and start with their defense. Drake managed to hold Dayton to a four play possession and the ball was turned over with Dayton having less than two minutes of possession time.
However, the Bulldogs defense faltered after the first possession and they were unable to continue that momentum from the starting minutes of the first quarter for the rest of the game.
