THE LAST MEETINGINDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – The Drake University football team used a strong start to earn a 27-16 victory at Butler, Sept. 30, 2017

After missing his first attempt, Grant Kraemer went to complete his next 11 passes for 172 yards, including two touchdowns in Drake’s first three drives. With the help of solid protection up front, Kraemer was able to push the ball down field with 10 of his 11 completions going for 10 or more yards.

Tyler Updegraff plunged into the endzone to cap off Drake’s first drive, giving the Bulldogs a 7-3.

Drake’s defense then held Butler to another field goal to hold on to a 7-6 lead.

Then it took less than two minutes for Drake to extend its lead, 14-6 as Krae-mer found Steven Doran streaking down the middle of the field for a 28-yard touchdown pass.

Kraemer then extended Drake’s lead 21-6 with a 15-yard touchdown pass to Connor Ostrander, who ended his day with five catches for 80 yards, midway through second-quarter.

Drake went into the half with a 21-13 lead after Butler managed to score near the end of the second-quarter.

For the second-straight game, the Bulldog defense was lights out in the second-half. Drake limited Butler to just 67 yards of total offense, five first downs and three points.

Drake’s offense opened the second-half with its fourth scoring drive of the game when Danny Donley drilled a 19-yard field goal to put the Bulldogs ahead 24-13.

Donley then put the game out of reach with a 38-yard field goal, 27-16, with 4:35 left in the game.

Kraemer finished the game with 329 yards passing and went 27-for-40. Mitch MacFarlane, Devin Cates and Doran each recorded six receptions. McFarlane totaled a team-best 87 yards receiving, while Doran and Cates registered 73 and 71 yards, respectively.

Senior Tyler Updegraff led the Bulldog ground game with 69 yards and a touchdown.

Defensively, Sean Lynch racked up a team-high nine tackles and recorded a pass break-up.

MISSOULA, Mont. – The Drake University football team fell to No. 14 Montana, 48-16, Saturday afternoon at Washington-Grizzly Stadium. “We played a great opponent. We need to learn and grow from this to be the kind of team we want to be moving forward in the season,” said Drake head coach Rick Fox.

In front more 23,000 rowdy Montana fans in one of the Football Championship Subdivi-sion’s toughest atmospheres, the Grizzlies made it even more difficult for the Bulldogs to get comfortable offensively as they brought the pressure on nearly every play, which produced seven sacks, 11 tackles for a loss and four Bulldog turnovers. “Montana’s blitz was getting to us all day. We knew that and were prepared for the blitz, but we didn’t pick it up and handle it as well as we needed. They also have a lot of defensive speed and we saw that on the field,” said Fox

Dalton Sneed paced Montana’s offense with a game-high 65 rushing yards, 278 passing yards and a combined three touchdowns. He completed 31-of-47 passes. Jerry Louie-McGee was Sneed’s top target as he caught 14 passes for 133 yards and a touchdown. “I thought our defense played a great game but eventually they just wore out with the athletes that they have and their quarter-back is a great player. He can do so many different things to you and you think a play is done and he makes thing happen,” said Fox.

Despite getting blitzed on nearly every play, Drake’s Grant Kraemer completed 23-of-42 passes for 281 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions that turned into 14 UM points. Kraemers’ top target was Devin Cates, who caught nine passes for 80 yards. Steven Doran hauled in four Kraemer passes for 64 yards. Sean Lynch and Will Warner led Drake’s defense with seven tackles apiece. Drake surrendered just 10 first-half points to the No. 14 Grizzlies and a Danny Donley 45-yard field goal to start the second quarter accounted for the 10-7 halftime score. The Grizzlies scored to open the third quarter, but Drake countered with a well-executed fake punt that turned in a 49-yard touchdown run by Will Warner to make the score 17-10

Montana with 4:46 left in the third quarter. However, turnovers began to mount for the Bulldogs with Montana capitalizing for a pair of touchdowns in the final 44 seconds of the third quarter to take a 31-10 lead. The Bulldogs converted on a 7-play, 63-yard drive to open the fourth quarter capped by a 3-yard strike from Kraemer to Will Purdom to pull within two scores at 31-16. However, that would be the final time the Bulldogs found the endzone as Montana scored three more times to end the game with the 48-16 advantage.

DES MOINES, Iowa - Senior quarterback Grant Kraemer threw for 359 yards and matched a school record he already held claim to with six touchdown passes in the Drake University football team’s dominat-ing 52-12 win over Missouri S&T Saturday, Sept. 15, at Drake Stadium. Kraemer’s afternoon came on 14-of-16 passing as the Bulldogs threw for 452 total yards, just three yards shy of the school record for passing yards in a game. Krae-mer’s six touchdowns tied his previous best against Southwestern last year and Ira Vandever’s six touchdowns against San Diego in 2002. “Offensively, Grant and the receivers were just connecting today,” said Drake head coach Rick Fox. “That’s a mature group. They’ve played a lot of plays together and you saw that pay off today.” Drake’s (1-1) defense held Missouri S&T (2-1) to just 175 total yards and forced a pair of turnovers, including an interception return for a touchdown by Will Warner. Zac Rujawitz and Kieran Severa had eight and seven tackles, respectively. “I was really pleased with our defense and they kept it rolling,” Fox said. “We’re going to need that heading into conference play and it was good to see so many guys step up and make plays.” Kraemer wasted little time in getting the Bull-dogs’ offense into gear as he found Drew Lauer wide open on the near sideline on the game’s fourth play from scrimmage. With no one near him after the short completion, Lauer sprinted 58 yards to the endzone to begin an afternoon that saw him catch three passes for 134 yards. Drake pulled out a nearly identical play on its next possession with Kraemer hitting Mitch McFarlane with nothing but daylight in front of him for a 65-yard touchdown to cap the opening quarter’s scoring. “I’m proud of how we got started and that’s big on a day like this with the heat,” Fox said. “The heat was a big factor in the game. Getting those two scores and getting up early was really significant.” The defense created excellent field position all day and helped set up a 6-yard Kraemer to Devin Cates touchdown to open the sec-

ond half. Missouri S&T answered with a 33-yard gain on 3rd-and-5 that set up a 3-yard Aaron Moya touchdown run to account for the Miners only offensive score of the day. Kraemer and Cates connected again to end the second half on a 5-yard touchdown pass following a 72-yard gain as Lauer’s gritty running broke countless attempted tackles. Drake scored on its first drive of the second half on a 50-yard touchdown pass from Kraemer to Stephen Doran. Doran finished the day with 112 yards on five receptions. After seeing the offense rack up points, the defense got in on the act when Warner intercepted a Miner pass and returned it 26 yards for the touchdown to put an exclama-tion mark on Drake’s dominance on both sides of the ball.

Attendance: 1,738

The Drake University football team’s de-fense shut down a dangerous option offense in a dominant 41-9 win at Jacksonville to open Pioneer Football League play Satur-day, Sept. 29.

Drake (2-1, 1-0 PFL) allowed just 218 total yards. A third of Jacksonville’s (1-2, 0-1 PFL) offense came on a single 73-yard run that was one of the defense’s few missteps of the day.

Kieran Severa (Lawrence, Kan.) led the de-fense with eight tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks and a fumble recovery. Severa led a charge of Bulldogs that snuffed out Jacksonville’s option offense and registered a total of 11 tackles for loss. Connor Willis (Glen Ellyn, Ill.) added nine total tackles as well.

That pressure provided the offense with stellar field position all afternoon and the Bulldogs capitalized on that with quarterback Grant Kraemer (Northridge, Calif.) complet-ing 16-of-24 passes for 205 yards with four touchdowns. Three of those touchdown strikes were to Steven Doran (Germantown, Wis.) who finished with five catches for 132 yards in addition to his three touchdowns.

Last season against Jacksonville, Doran had 104 yards receiving and a pair of touch-downs. He now has five 100-yard games in his last six games dating back to last season.

Drake jumped out to an early 14-0 lead in the first quarter on its first eight plays from scrimmage as Drake converted on great field position early.

After running the ball on four of its first five plays, Kramer dropped back and found Doran between the hash marks. Doran shed a pair of defenders to complete the 25-yard touchdown strike and give the Bulldogs an early lead.

Kraemer and Doran connected for a third time to end the first half with a play action pass from the 1-yard line that Doran el-evated above a defender to haul in and give the Bulldogs a 31-0 halftime lead.

Jacksonville got on the board in the third quarter by blocking a Drake punt in the end-zone for a safety with just under six minutes left in the third quarter. However, Drake ended the quarter with a leaping interception

by Jeran Proctor (Johnston, Iowa). Moments later, Kraemer found Mitch McFarlane (Fond du Lac, Wis.) in the endzone for an 11-yard touchdown to go up 38-2.

Jacksonville had its lone offensive bright spot on the ensuing drive when the danger-ous running quarterback Calvin Turner, Jr. got loose for a 73-yard touchdown scamper to account for the Dolphins lone offensive score of the day.

Drake closed the game with a 31-yard Don-ley field goal as the offense shifted gears to burn time late in the fourth quarter and account for the final 41-9 score. Donley was also perfect on all five of his PAT attempts.
