The Bulldogs go into the second quarter with a winning mentality and score the first touchdown once again to show the Vikings what the Bulldogs are made of. Johnny McCormick completed a six-yard touchdown at the 14:21 minute mark. With less than five Minutes left in the second quarter, Garrett Olson rushed a huge 51-yard run to get the first down into field goal range.

To end off the one-sided game, Joe Kordus intercepted a massive pass to score a 75 yard touchdown and bring the Bulldogs even further ahead of the Vikings. After a long fight in the fourth quarter, the Bulldogs took a huge win against a good competitor. Leaving the field with a strong 41-15 win, it’s easy to say it was a good weekend for the Bulldogs

 With a steady 8-2 record, UMD plans on keeping the winning streak alive going into next weekend  for senior day against Northern State University on Nov. 13.
