BIG RAPIDS, Mich -- The Ferris State football made the deepest run in school history last year getting to the division 2 national semifinal before falling to eventual national champion Northwest Missouri State.

"We know that we were really close I think it just made us hungrier" Ferris State head coach Tony Annese said. "I keep on telling people our expectation is, the best is yet to come."

The Bulldogs return 8 starters on offense and 5 of their top 6 leading tacklers and begin the season ranked 3rd in the nation in division 2.

Ferris State begins the season September 9th at Findlay.
