OT: Ferris State in D2 title game

Submitted by Chaz_Smash on December 15th, 2018 at 5:30 PM

Interesting that Jayru Campbell, the former MSU commit who body-slammed a security guard (on video) at Cass Tech is QB for Ferris, and won D2 player of the year award.

Ferris is playing Harbaugh's buddy Kerwin Bell and Valdosta State. More proof hosting a Harbaugh satellite camp will improve a coach's life.

Valdosta was perhaps the favorite going into the playoffs; Ferris knocked off Minnesota State, ranked #1 all year, in Mankato last week to get here. 

My local team, UMD, wilted in the first round of the playoffs. Not dissimilar to a certain November game the rest of us watched. 

Slippery Rock made a nice run to the regional final, so there’s that.

Valdosta is a little more athletic. Ferris's corners are having a little trouble sticking on the Valdosta WR's. Not really too stiff of defense on either side. Could be just typical D2 ball.

They score the TD. Need the 2-pointer to tie. And... run a trick play where Jayru Campbell isn't the one throwing or running the ball. Ugh.

A simple QB draw, given Valdosta's coverage, probably scores.
