NORMAL – Senior quarterback Brady Davis and the Illinois State football team were supposed to be in Fargo, N.D., on Saturday.
But with the rematch of last season’s FCS quarterfinal playoff game matching ISU and North Dakota State postponed until March 13 because of the pandemic, Davis was granted permission to miss the Redbirds’ practice at Hancock Stadium to attend a family wedding.
That left the signal-calling to ISU’s younger quarterbacks, and Coach Brock Spack was pleased with the efforts of Bryce Jefferson, Jack Baltz, Britton Morris and Jackson Waring in ISU’s first full contact action since last December.
