THE BASICS
The Drake University football team is on the road again for the first round of FCS playoff action. The Bulldogs are set for a rematch in Vermillion against the Coyotes of South Dakota with kickoff slated for noon in The DakotaDome.
LAST TIME OUT
Drake secured its third straight outright Pioneer Football League title with a come-from-behind 17-10 win over Morehead State last week. The Bulldogs leaned on their PFL-leading rushing attack to overpower the Eagles in the second half on their way to a win.
BACK IN THE BRACKET
This Saturday will mark the third FCS Playoff game in Drake football history.
