The Ferris State Bulldogs are set to continue their impressive run as they host the Bentley Falcons in their home opener on Friday. Following a dominant performance in their season opener, the Bulldogs aim to maintain their momentum in this NCAA Division II matchup.
Ferris State, coming off a perfect 16-0 season that culminated in their fourth national title in five years, showcased their prowess last week by defeating No. 4 Pittsburg State with a resounding score of 42-14. This victory not only reaffirmed their status as the top team in the nation but also set a high bar for the rest of the season.
On the other side, Bentley is looking to bounce back after a challenging postseason experience. The Falcons made their first appearance in the Division II playoffs since 2021, but their journey ended abruptly with a 52-0 loss to Kutztown. Despite this setback, Bentley is eager to build on their Northeast-10 (NE10) championship from the previous year as they kick off their 2026 campaign.
