Drake savors huge win at Eastern Washington

Drake coach Todd Stepsis has allowed his players a few more days to savor the program’s biggest victory in several years after a 35-32 overtime win at Eastern Washington. It was the Bulldog’s first win over an FCS scholarship program since a 2007 victory at Illinois State.

Drake is off this week. Stepsis says the win erased the dissapointment of having the season opener against Quincy cancelled with the Bulldogs leading 10-0 at halftime.

Drake quarterback Luke Bailey passed for 393 yards in that game as the offense showed the ability to strike with the big play.

With no game Stepsis will give his team Friday and Saturday off and says the focus this week in practice has been the young players.

Drake returns to action on the 21st by visiting sixth ranked South Dakota.
