After the 2023-24 season, the Drake football team was ready to come back from their Pioneer League championship for a repeat title, and as of week five of the 2024-25 season, the Bulldog pack is starting to do just that.
Although the team has had ups and downs, their record is solid for a non-scholarship team. powered by a genuine love of football and grit. No one is getting paid to be there, and that means every win counts when it’s against some of the best in the league. From taking down the Butler Bulldogs away in Indiana last year to beating Stetson University on their home turf, the Bulldogs never fail to prove how much they want the win, and the team especially showed off how they match up as a team of students just wanting to continue their football experience.
