Series: EWU leads 2-0
Last Meeting: 2013 - EWU won 35-14 in Grand Forks, ND.
The Eagles enter the game 7-2 on the season and fell to sixth in The Sports Network NCAA Football Championship Subdivision Top 25 Poll after a 28-27 last-minute loss at Northern Arizona on Oct. 25. Eastern is 4-1 in the Big Sky Conference – currently one of six one-loss teams in the league -- as it defends the league title it won with an 8-0 record last season. Like the Eagles, the Lumberjacks played in the FCS Playoffs a year ago and were 9-3 overall and 7-1 in the league.

"We need to grow as a team and get better regardless of what our record is," said Baldwin, whose team has held a fourth-quarter lead in its two losses this season. "Even if we were 9-0 right now, we would continue to work hard and improve fundamentally throughout the year. We will continue to stay disciplined in the weight room and with the process of the season. That always bodes well for us as we head into November, and is the attitude we need to have to finish the season strong."

North Dakota is 3-5 overall and 1-3 in the league after falling 35-17 last Saturday at Southern Utah. Eastern is 2-0 all-time versus UND, including a 35-14 triumph last year in Grand Forks and a 55-17 Eagle win in Cheney in 2012.

Well, apparently this was EWU's biggest MOV ever over a Big Sky opponent and UND's worst loss since 1926. Wasn't much of a game.

Not to take away from how EWU played today, but it takes a special kind of suck (offensively) to make this year's defense look so good; 4 turnovers, 3 points, 2 sacks and only 163 total yards.
