I'm a Valdosta State fan. Congratulations to Ferris State on a a winning the National Championship! God bless both universities, teams , students, players, and fans!
Pretty much a nail biter in the first quarter. Then the Ferris OLine started to take control of the show. The curtain is up on this offense Ferris uses. Grand Valley is already in transition going to this system to try to stay competitive. But it is still Tony Annese's offensive scheme that many teams will copy. CMU interviewed him but did not hire, wonder how they are thinking now. Depending on how many more years Tony stays, he has a chance to add more Championships at Ferris.
I rewatched the video to pay attention to the scheme, man that is crazy! Three Tight Ends sometimes? 327 rush yards and 0 pass yards late in the second quarter? These are some wild numbers and that's a sick way to win, just dominate up front to bring the DBs forward and then take whatever the defense gives
@@gfusportsnetwork6321 Isolation reads are also important. Depending on how wide they can entice the linebackers out in the flats with receivers in motion the QB has the option of going to the run. Valdosta fell for the trap and Bernhardt made them pay on play 1 for a TD.
If he wanted to leave Ferris State, he's had opportunities to before. He's 61 now, i think and not getting any younger. If he wants to go higher, he may have missed his chance, imo.
I was about to comment the same thing. It definitely won't be that score, but hopefully Michigan can pull it off. Georgia beat everyone pretty badly outside of their loss to Bama.
@@terrellemeryscoolvideos6741 I like to think of it as a good sign I obviously know it's not gonna affect the outcome just nice to see the northern team best a southern one in any division
Never happen under current rules. EVERY team would have to switch to FCS (unlike hockey which can be solo D1 like Michigan Tech, Northern Michigan, etc), read a great Q&A with GVSU AD on same subject, even at 17k capacity (this years attendance for Ferrris@GV) their stadium would be inadequate, $80 million alone plus all other venues. Too costly. McKinney was like $70 million and only 12k seats.
I'm so proud of them. Glad I transferred there and got to meet some of them. Didn't know football was that big in Michigan. Can say I got to see them win their first championship
Didn’t know football was big in Michigan? Michigan and Ohio are big football states and always have been. Midwest football is actually goated. This year #1 Ferris state #2 grand valley in D2 and in D1 you have #4 Michigan also msu even tho they’re doing bad but wmu cmu are all relevant teams that do good once in a while
Nobody was able to stop Jared Bernhardt, the former Tewaaraton Award winner, all season. Best lacrosse player and best D2 football player, what an athlete!
When we played them the first time (2018) we couldn’t stop their run game. They tightened up their backend tremendously since. Good game but games are won in the trenches
Well it would appear Jimmy H needs to drive up to Big Rapids talk to Tony Anesse about going to the multi option spread offense. Michigan needs to revamp their QB play and develop a more long term strategic vision.
The D2 game had been played for years , until couple years back, at Florence ,AL..the home of D2 team,North Alabama ..Maybe its been more like six, seven years ago ,they tried it at Bonner Springs Live Strong stadium , the home of Sporting Kansas City..That venue seemed pretty nice but that experiment was short-lived ..This stadium in McKinney TX is really nice...As one comment to you asserted, they do football right in Texas...You aren't going to ever need more seats than what they have..A D2 school isn't going to travel all that many people , and local interest is limited ,even though it's great football and it is Texas..They used to play an annual game in KC ,the Fall Classic they called it , at Arrowhead between NW MO St and Pitt State Gorillas , my college , and it drew about 18 to 22,000 but not much more . This venue is very suitable for hosting the game and for the first time, they had it in prime time .
They can. Earlier in the season, Mylik Mitchell (the 2nd string qb) broke the single game record for pass yards with 508. Running the ball has just been the bread n butter since Annesse took over.
The D2 championship game used to be played in Alabama. Why the NCAA moved this game is beyond comprehension, but then, whatever the NCAA does is beyond comprehension.
That is because North Alabama used it as home field advantage in the 1990's. Playing at Florence was okay playing field wise, they did not have a major airport in the area an it was tight getting our aircraft into that short landing strip. The game was moved to KC for a year I think, then the NCAA decided to take bids on who could host it.
Ferris State might be known for their D1 hockey program-- but congrats to their D2 football team for making program history!
Congrats to Ferris State on their first Division 2 National Championship!! 👏🏆The whole state of Michigan is so proud of you guys!!
That was the first time in one hundred years that we went completely undefeated for the whole season
@@superduperbooper3987 There was no doubt who the better team was!!
Shepherd should have won
Us Michiganders are sooo proud of you guys !!!!!!
@@shanewetzel9892 here hold this. L
There was an obvious winner, but I can see why these two teams were here. --- Thanks for the great coverage. ---
Congrats to the D2 Champs!! Game was fairly even but theirs a reason Ferris ST is #1 this season!! Domination!! Great game

Yeah watching the first quarter you would never guess it would end it a blowout

Cmu wanted to hire him but he doesn't want to leave ferris and I see his reasoning
If he wanted to leave Ferris State, he's had opportunities to before. He's 61 now, i think and not getting any younger. If he wants to go higher, he may have missed his chance, imo.
I just realized a Michigan team beat a Georgia team in this game hopefully a sign of good things to come in the Georgia Michigan game
But they’re also the “Bulldogs”. Hope the same as you tho 🙏🏻
Its only adding some real pressure on Harbaugh and Smart.
I was about to comment the same thing. It definitely won't be that score, but hopefully Michigan can pull it off. Georgia beat everyone pretty badly outside of their loss to Bama.
This means nothing buddy
@@terrellemeryscoolvideos6741 I like to think of it as a good sign I obviously know it's not gonna affect the outcome just nice to see the northern team best a southern one in any division
I know this is D2 but do they really have to play in a high school stadium? Even the D3 championship is at Canton where NFL holds the HOF game.
Have you seen that stadium. We different down here man
Romi- this puts the HOF stadium to shame. Also much better venue for weather, amenities near Dallas.
I played a juco bowl game in a dome
I played D2 football and this stadium is far big than our home stadium. Its probably bigger than 90% of D2 football stadiums.
@@sjdss they were amazing all season but I don't know what the heck happened last night. Acted like we never saw a run team before
Excellent commentary, congratulations to both schools!! Fun game to watch
Yeah it's D2, nvm VV thanks for this upload. What a great game! Well deserved first national title Bulldogs.
I'm proud of Ferris State for winning the championship. Good Job!
Way to go Bulldogs! Congrats as well to Valdosta State on a great season!
As a Valdosta State student who was there...pain.
Here you go. L
Great Win For Ferris State putting Big Rapids on the Map again Hopefully one day you guys can make the jump to FCS real soon

It looks like the Ferris State backs and receivers were getting tired they had so many long plays.
I'm so proud of them. Glad I transferred there and got to meet some of them. Didn't know football was that big in Michigan. Can say I got to see them win their first championship

Let's gooo ferris, bringing the D2 title to Michigan. Michigan going to bring the natty home. What a great year for cfb in Michigan.
Nobody was able to stop Jared Bernhardt, the former Tewaaraton Award winner, all season. Best lacrosse player and best D2 football player, what an athlete!
What a great game, I was there! Go Dawgs
Imagine Michigan can have Two 🏈 national championships in a few weeks.
Championship seasons in both D1 and D2 for Michigan this year. Nice.
When we played them the first time (2018) we couldn’t stop their run game. They tightened up their backend tremendously since. Good game but games are won in the trenches
2:45 guy gets so excited he hits himself in the crotch, I think they got blew out because they got them bishop sycamore looking uniforms
D2 brother
That's a butt whoopin. Congrats ferris state.
Congrats Bulldogs....uh, how many good RBs do you guys have????????
I'm trying to figure out who's better Ferris State D2 champs or Mary Hardin-Baylor D3 champs it's close
"327 rush yards, zero pass yards. If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
😮
@0:52 that ref has “think fast” reflexes
Love option football.service academies in fbs and nd state fcs and ferris in d2 prove you can dominate with it.
Well it would appear Jimmy H needs to drive up to Big Rapids talk to Tony Anesse about going to the multi option spread offense.
Michigan needs to revamp their QB play and develop a more long term strategic vision.
Ayyy my team won the championship let’s go Bulldogs
9:08 commentator did dirty on that qb 😅😅
Hopefully this is foreshadowing for the UM Georgia game
Ferris state qb was the best player in ncaa div 1 lacrosse and won the equivalent of the Heisman this year
That wouldbe the Harlon Hill trophy, for the best player in D2 football.
D1 or d2
Welcome to Atlanta
2:43 that was unnecessary
3:07 🤦♂️ bruh
Congrats to the winner.
Goff had a good season with Kerwin bell players...
A solid D2 team could definitely beat a sub par D1 team anyday of the week.
isnt this the D2 championship😂
yea
Yes it is
They deserve to play at a better stadium not a crappy soccer field
McKinney ISD stadium is a very nice stadium
I thought north central won d3
This is D2
He just accidentally put D3
And this team (as well as GVSU) is why my alma mater is jumping ship from the GLIAC
Cuz y’all can’t play with them?
@@josiahfrazier5197 nope, and I totally think they're bitching out (even though Ferris is 6x larger in attendance)
@@ProgressOnly ferris isn’t even that big, I think gvsu should move up to D1 cuz they have something like 21k, ferris only has 13k, where did you go?
@@josiahfrazier5197 Northwood. Undergrad enrollment of about 2k
Jared bernhardt lacrosse legend
Go Dawgs! Way to make me proud!

Never have seen Valdosta get beaten like this. Wow.
Y'all have no idea just how filthy Bernhardt is on a lacrosse field. Guy makes EVERYONE look silly
I wrote a letter and my class did as-well for these guys at Valdosta
Lowkey robbed em on that fumble mans knee was down
I wanna see ferris vs a power 5
Until they move to FCS never going to happen.
Ferris State won their first title ever, yet the trophy is coming back to Big Rapids? What?
its actually D2
Fixed it, was 5am when I uploaded lol so wasn't all there. Thanks for letting me know
Watching the highlights not knowing what happens makes it look like it's gonna be an exciting game... yeah no
LETS GO FERRIS
269 boy🤘🏽
A Georgia team vs a Michigan team hope the college football playoffs go this well for the Wolverine over the Bulldogs.
34-11
You serious jarred Bernhardt left d1 lacrosse to play d2 football
D2
9:11
9:10 🤨
Ferris St.- Just find the QB and you win literally lmfao all they do is run the Option
Blazers former coach let them down left them high and dry. Kids got hit where it hurts before the game and them coach wasn't in it mentally.
It appears he already had accepted the Nichols job before the final. The ink was dry long before Sunday arrived.
Put him at RB
D2 bud
Geez does Ferris state pass at all
No need to, if they can’t stop the run at all, why change
In the words of Woody Hayes, "when you pass, 3 things can happen and 2 of them are bad"
They can. Earlier in the season, Mylik Mitchell (the 2nd string qb) broke the single game record for pass yards with 508. Running the ball has just been the bread n butter since Annesse took over.

Looks like both these teams would get rocked in d1
Go Bulldogs!
Chowan winning the whole thing next year‼️
👍👍👍

Who came here to watch that Tik Toker #38
LAAAAAAAAAAXXX
Looks like two high school teams. Yikes.
Why on earth are they playing in a highschool stadium.
Larger than most D2 and FCS
Texas hs football stadium. Not just any stadium.
I think my high school football team could give these guys a good game . Amazing how undisciplined the teams are and how small they are
Jeff Watkins Your High School Team Would Not Even Stand A Chance Against These Guys Scout Team
Jeff Watkins you guys would get your Butts kicked. I’m sure Ferris St could beat some D1 teams no problem
@@deweyengelsma3054 they'd be top 15 FCS no question and doubt.
