Final Score: Ashland 3 - 43 Ferris State

And that is a wrap on Ferris State's second home game of the 2024 season. Next week is a bye week for the Bulldogs before they head to American International College on September 28.

Despite a penalty-filled journey throughout this game against the Eagles, the Ferris State Bulldogs showed they were the better team as their offense's fast pace kept the defense on their toes and often left in their dust. 

Young quarterback Trinidad Chambliss showed huge growth as he stepped in for Carson Gulker after his injury last week. Chambliss led the Ferris State offense to 530 yards with 28 completions on 38 attempts. He played a critical piece in each touchdown scored today, except for the first during the opening kickoff.

The Bulldogs defense also showed up tonight, holding the Eagles to just 127 yards. The Eagles were unable to overcome the suffocating defense in Big Rapids, Michigan.
