mitchell hands it miner with plenty of space tyler miner with a major gain for ferris state [Applause] stays on his feet down inside the 15-yard line mitchell on the keeper pressure comes and mitchell has to fire it toward the end zone pretty much threw it blindly angle to blow that play up durham is blasted in the backfield it's a live football picked up by the bulldogs saying that valdosta state moved prematurely but at the end of the day it works out incredibly well for them with the pressure by oladipo to spring that ball loose i just want to know where you can get four months of vacation [Applause] [Music] and barnett is true the wide out at heart might have been good from 50 there by lake mitchell running the show for ferris state with jared bernhardt on the sideline mitchell deep throat down the sideline is caught xavier wade still running [Applause] wade inside the 10. number 24 is the number that could happen cummins on the keeper he's coming into the end zone touchdown ferris state ivory durham back to throw for the blazers connects with brian saunders over the middle to a physical quarterback centric run game on the run side of it and that's where he differs durham

with trayvon roberts it's near the first down sticks you're about a yard short and he sent his favorite book children's book peanut butter angelic have you heard of that book chris have you heard of

and corey roberts and then it's the loose ball handling which we haven't seen obviously much of that out of ferris state cj jefferson is used to carrying the football there's fans out there they'd appreciate that he hasn't been out there tonight because the bulldogs haven't had to punt durham's pass picked off [Applause] sydney macleod on the int for ferris state anees himself is a flatliner
