It was no secret going into Saturday that Fordham boasted one of the scariest offenses in the FCS. Quarterback Tim DeMorat has put up more yards (4,561 yards) and touchdowns (53) than any other passer in the country for a group that averages 417.4 yards per contest. In spite of all those staggering numbers, however, it will be New Hampshire that’s moving on in the FCS playoffs thanks to a gutsy performance against the high-octane Rams in the opening round.
The Rams came out swinging on their first series but with their backs against the wall early, UNH’s defense forced a fumble to get off the field unharmed.
