Saturday kicked off the 2019 football season for the Drake Bulldogs. Head Coach Todd Stepsis, the Bulldogs former Defensive Coordinator, began his inaugural year in the role traveling with his team to North Dakota to open the season against the North Dakota Fighting Hawks.
Last season the Bulldogs went 7-4 overall with a 6-3 conference record in the Pioneer Football League (PFL). This year Scott Stepsis stepped in as head coach after Rick Fox resigned after six seasons in the role. More fresh faces come to the football team in the form of a new quarterback.
