The Game

Honoring a campus tradition that dates back to 1921, the Missouri State Bears (1-5, 1-2 MVFC) will entertain the No. 11 UNI Panthers (4-3, 2-1 MVFC) Saturday (Oct. 26) afternoon at Robert W. Plaster Stadium. The contest will mark the sixth time the Bears and Panthers have met on Missouri State’s Homecoming, with UNI claiming each of the previous five games. Saturday’s 2:05 p.m. (CT) contest will be streamed live via ESPN+, with Don West and Corey Riggs describing the action. The game will also be carried on the Missouri State Radio Network, as Art Hains and Dennis Heim will once again have the call.

2019 Missouri State Football Game Notes


Last time out

Missouri State suffered its second straight defeat with a 22-0 decision at No. 1 North Dakota State last weekend.• Led by McNeece Egbim’s game-high 14 tackles,

MSU’s defense enjoyed one of its best performances of the season, holding the top-ranked Bison to a sea-son-low point total, while forcing a season-high seven punts by the two-time defending national champions.

• A pair of early NDSU touchdowns and a stout defen-sive showing was enough for the Bison to extend the second-longest winning streak in FCS history.

• Quarterback Trey Lance completed 21-of-31 passes for 225 yards, while rushing for 79 yards and the go-ahead touchdown in the first quarter.

• Paced by Adam Cofield’s 93 yards and two rushing touchdowns, NDSU gained 222 ground yards, while the Bison defense held the Bears’ running game to just 21 yards on 20 carries for the game.

• Peyton Huslig completed 20-of-37 passes for 164 yards, marking his fourth straight game with at least 20 completions — the longest such streak of his MSU career; Damoriea Vick reeled in six of those comple-tions for 72 yards to lead all receivers.

• Missouri State fell to 0-8 all-time gainst top-ranked teams, five of which have come against the Bison.

welcome home

The Bears continue a campus tradition that dates back to 1921 on Saturday when they entertain Northern Iowa on Homecoming at Plaster Stadium. The Bears are 26-22 on homecoming since 1971 and are hosting the Panthers on homecoming for the sixth time. Even though the Bears are 0-5 against UNI on homecoming, four of the contests have been decided by six points or less, and three games have been decided by a field goal or less. It is Northern Iowa’s first trip to Springfield for homecoming since 2003.

MSU will be looking to claim its fifth homecoming victory in the last eight years. MSU is 26-22 in homecoming games since 1971. In their last 12 homecoming games, the Bears have averaged 33.7 points and over 430 yards of total offense per outing.

captain consistency

Bears linebacker McNeece Egbim notched a game-high 14 tackles at North Dakota State last week, marking his 13th career double-figure tackle game — and third in three conference games this season. The senior from Rowlett, Texas posted seven solo stops and 3.5 tackles for loss against the top-ranked Bison with five stops on third-down plays.

Egbim is averaging 13.7 tackles per game in Valley play with back-to-back double-digit stops in the Bears’ first three league contests. At Western Illinois in MSU’s MVFC opener, he recorded a season-high 15 tackles to lead a resurgent Bears defense. The All-MVFC performer also set a personal best with 13 solo stops in the contest and broke up a pair of WIU passes, before recording 12 tackles against South Dakota (Oct. 12). The senior has recorded at least five tackles in 18 of MSU’s last 19 games.

don't worry with currie

Senior receiver Tyler Currie snagged a career-high nine passes against South Dakota in week two of Valley play.With four more catches Saturday at NDSU, Currie hiked his MVFC-leading reception total to 33 for the season.

In two home games this season, Currie has 15 catches (7.5 per game) for 154 yards (77.0). The All-MVFC stand-out has multiple receptions in all six games this season.

former bear holliman taken in xfl draft

Former Bears standout Deion Holliman was one of 85 players selected from FCS programs in last week’s XFL Draft. UNI’s Elijah Campbell -- taken fourth among DBs by the DC Defenders — headlined a list of 12 former MVFC players drafted by teams in the upstart league.

Holliman, a three-time All-MVFC selection, was taken by the Defenders in the open round portion of the draft. He finished his MSU career in 2017 as the MVFC’s all-time leader in kickoff return yardage (2,445) after totaling 493 yards on 22 returns as a senior. The Camden, Ark., product averaged 109.4 all-purpose yards per outing and rated among the top 10 punt returners in the country with a Valley-best average of 12.4 yards on his 16 returns.

COMEBACK CUBS

In last week’s triple-overtime win at Western Illinois, Missouri State erased an early 14-point deficit to the Leathernecks in the longest game in program history.

The Bears’ comeback represented their biggest since erasing a two-touchdown margin on Oct. 29, 2016, when they trailed SIU 28-14 at Plaster Stadium, before rallying late in a 38-35 victory over the Salukis. The last time Missouri State earned a road victory after trailing by 14 or more points was Aug. 28, 2014, when MSU overcame a 24-7 deficit at Northwestern nState en route to a 20-point fourth quarter and 34-27 victory.

Seven bears Earn preseason honors

Missouri State standouts Tyler Currie, Angelo Garbutt, McNeece Egbim and Matt McClellan were all recog-nized by the Missouri Valley Football Conference with Preseason All-MVFC honors, as selected by a panel of league coaches, media and communications personnel.

Currie, a native of Cordova, Tenn., earned All-MVFC honorable mention honors as a junior after starting 9-of-11 games for the Bears in 2018. He shared the team lead with 35 receptions and led MSU with 548 yards and five receiving touchdowns.

Garbutt was a Preseason All-MVFC standout last season as well, ultimately earning All-MVFC honorable mention laurels at season’s end in 2018. He was also named by Phil Steele as an all-conference second team selection as a junior after ranking 31st nationally and fifth in the MVFC with team-best 99 total tackles.

Egbim, a senior from Rowlett, Texas, was a team co-captain as a junior and earned All-MVFC honorable mention honors at linebacker. He ranked 44th nationally and sixth in MVFC in total tackles per game (8.7) after bringing down 96 ball carriers with 9.0 tackles for loss, both of which ranked second on the club.

McClellan, a senior from Ferguson, Mo., earned a spot on the 2018 MVFC All-Newcomer Team. He led the Bears with 10.5 tackles for loss and shared the team lead with 6.0 sacks. He ranked 67th nationally with 0.55 sacks per game which was eighth in the MVFC.

Three more Bears earned preseason All-MVFC laurels from Phil Steele’s annual preview. Long snapper Chan-dler Collins joined Currie, Egbim, Garbutt and defensive lineman Claudio Martin on the publication’s list of second-team honorees, while offensive lineman Casey O’Brien picked up third-team recognition.

Additonally, Collins was one of 16 MVFC players — the most by any FCS league — to be honored by STATS with 2019 FCS Preseason All-America Football Team laurels. A senior from Springfield, Mo., Collins has been MSU’s starting long snapper the last three seasons.

huslig leaving his mark

Peyton Huslig eclipsed several statistical milestones in 2018, including topping 4,000 career passing yards, 5,000 career yards of total offense and 2,000 passing yards for the season. The dual-threat signal caller ranked seventh on the single-season total offense list (2,479) and sixth on the Bears’ passing yards list (2,113).

MSU’s senior signal-caller matched career highs with 28 completions and four passing touchdowns to help lead the Bears to a triple-overtime road win over Western Illinois (Oct. 5) in their Valley opener. Huslig finished 28-of-44 with no interceptions and 315 passing yards — his third-best single-game passing output of his career. He accounted for 231 passing yards in the second half and overtime alone. Huslig also eclipsed 5,000 career pass-ing yards in the victory to become just the third player in MSU history to reach that milestone while securing his 11th career 200-yard passing effort. His 41-yard TD strike to Tyler Currie midway through the fourth quarter capped a 21-0 run and gave the Bears their first lead of the game after trailing by 14 points early, while his 25-yard scoring pass to Lorenzo Thomas on the first play of overtime set a blistering pace in the extra time.

maroon and white special

MSU special teams have been a consistent force during the Dave Steckel era, with the Bears ranking among the top five among all MVFC units in both punt average and punt return average three of the last four seasons.

The Bears have been one of the best punting units in the FCS ranks so far this fall. With a net punting average of 39.57, Missouri State ranks 16th nationally — and leads in the MVFC in that key category. Senior punter Brendan Withrow has a 42.9 punting average, which ranks 21st nationally, including 13 (of 42) punts over 50 yards and 11 downed inside the 20. Last fall, Withrow ranked 40th nationally in punting average with 41.0 yards per attempt, including 22 of his 62 attempts downed inside the 20. Withrow’s career punt average of 41.4 yards per kick rates third on the Bears’ career chart as well.

withrow picks up mvfc, national honors

Missouri State punter Brendan Withrow was named Missouri Valley Football Conference Special Teams Play-er of the Week and STATS FCS National Special Teams Player of the Week (Oct. 7) for his efforts in helping the Bears to their first win of the season at Western Illinois.

The senior from Imperial, Mo., set a Missouri State single-game punting average record with an impressive 51.6 average on seven attempts in Macomb. He matched his career-long punt with a 70-yarder in the second quarter and notched four kicks of 50 yards or more with two downed inside the 20.

Withrow’s 56-yard punt in the final minute of regulation was downed at the WIU one-yard line in a tie game, giv-ing WIU no attempt at a desperation play and ultimately pushing the game into overtime.

honoring No. 20

For the third straight season, Missouri State’s players will be honoring former teammate Richard Nelson with his number “20” on their helmets. The team also has a stand-ing memorial to Nelson in the MSU Football facility with the words “Always A Bear” over a large photo of Nelson.

Nelson was shot and killed in his hometown of Las Ve-gas, Nev., on Jan. 14, 2017, while attempting to intervene in an attack on his sister. Nelson, who was just 18 years old, was a tailback on the team and redshirted during his first and only with the Bears in 2016.

COLE train rolls along for texans

Former Bear linebacker Dylan Cole became the most-recent Missouri State product to earn a spot on a National Football League roster in September 2017, when the Houston Texans announced the free agent signee as a member of the club’s initial 53-man roster. Now entering his third pro season with Houston, Cole appeared in 12 games for the Texans as a rookie, logging 32 tackles, 1.0 sack and a pair of interceptions, before an injury-riddled fall abbreviated his sophomore NFL campaign last fall.

A consensus first-team FCS All-America selection for the Bears as a senior, Cole averaged 12.9 tackles per game in 2016 to lead all FCS players. The Rogersville, Mo., product recorded at least 13 tackles in nine different games as a senior, including 19 in the Bears’ win over Southern Illinois.

The All-MVFC first-team selection racked up 85 solo tackles, eight tackles for loss, two interceptions, four pass breakups and three forced fumbles. Cole finished third in the 2016 Buck Buchanan Award voting as the top defensive player in the FCS ranks, played in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl and earned CoSIDA Academic All-District honors as well as MVFC Scholar-Athlete Team laurels.

BEARS IN THE NFL

MSU’s history of producing pro football talent dates back to 1945 and extends to the present day with two NFL Draft selections in recent years — Clay Harbor to the Philadelphia Eagles in 2010 and David Arkin to the Cowboys in 2011.

Ten additional Bears have earned undrafted free agent contracts over the last eight years with Malik Earl joining the Cowboys in 2018; Dylan Cole signing with the Hous-ton Texans and Riley Shantz signing with Green Bay im-mediately after the 2017 Draft; Gannon Sinclair signing with the Arizona Cardinals in 2015; 2014 signee Anthony Grady (Jets); 2013 addition Randy Richards (Chargers); 2011 professionals Jermaine Saffold (Browns) and Chris Douglas (Bills); and 2010 rookies Kolby Hurt (Saints) and Jake Duron (Jets).

Likewise, many Bears in recent years have enjoyed ex-tended careers in the Arena Football League and Indoor Football League (IFL), including Duron, Cody Kirby and Tevan Ferguson. Steve Watson appeared in Arena Bowl XXII in 2008 for the San Jose SaberCats. A two-time All-MVFC standout (2003-04), Watson posted 238 tackles in 31 games at MSU and also played for the Columbus Destroyers and Tulsa Talons. Brad St. Louis played 10 seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals from 2000-09. He starred for MSU at tight end from 1996-99 and played in both the East-West Shrine Game and Hula Bowl after his senior season prior to be-

ing drafted by the Bengals. He operated as the Bengals’ regular long snapper seven seasons with additional work at tight end. Former Bear Jason Whittle played 11 NFL seasons from 1998-2008. He signed a free agent contract in the 2003 off-season with then-Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay after five years with the New York Giants. He returned to the Giants in 2004 and moved to the Minnesota Vikings for the 2006 campaign before joining the Bills in 2007. A standout lineman at MSU from 1994-97, Whittle signed a free agent contract with the Giants in 1998. He became the first MSU Bear to appear in the NFL title game when he saw action in the 2001 Super Bowl with the Giants.

BEARS honored for academics

A total of 28 Missouri State University football players were honored by the Missouri Valley Football Conference for academic excellence during the 2018 academic term. MSU senior safety Jared Beshore earned the league’s highest academic honor in the President’s Council Academic Excellence Award, which requires a minimum 3.5 cumulative GPA (through the fall 2018 semester) and participation in athletics a minimum of two years. The student-athletes receiving this award must also be within 18 hours of graduation. A total of 34 players throughout the 10-team league received the honor in 2018.

Beshore also headlined a group of Missouri State players honored with the Commissioner’s Academic Excellence Award, which requires a minimum GPA of 3.2 for the previous two semesters (freshmen are not eligible.). Including MSU honorees Beshore, Charles Carter, Alex Coffin, JT Granato, Brock Hughes, Peyton Huslig, Ty McDuffey, Brad Pryor, Jordan Turner, and Jordan Wil-kes, a total of 173 players league-wide earned this honor. Both Beshore and Huslig were named to the MVFC All-Academic Team at the conclusion of the 2018 season.

bears strong in Non-Con

The Bears saw their six-game home win streak versus non-conference opponents come to an end with their 35-24 setback to Kennesaw State (Sept. 21). MSU outscored its six home victims by a combined 236-66 margin since kicking off the streak with a 38-0 victory over North Da-kota on Sept. 13, 2014.

Missouri State’s win over Northern Arizona last Septem-ber saw the Bears continue their recent non-conference surge. MSU has enjoyed a history of success in non-conference play at home since joining the Division I ranks in 1982, going 58-21 overall against non-league foes at Plaster Stadium, including a 5-1 mark in such contests under Dave Steckel.

LEADING THE SLEUTH

A pair of repeat selections as team captains in senior quarterback Peyton Huslig and senior linebacker McNeece Egbim will help steer the Bears during the 2019 season. Huslig and Egbim filled the same roles last fall for MSU. Additionally, junior safety Titus Wall was chosen by his teammates for a team captain role and will help lead the Bears defense this fall.

Packing Them In

The newly-renovated Robert W. Plaster Stadium has hosted three of the top nine home crowds in Missouri State football history, as well as an overall average of nearly 10,000 fans per home contest over the last five seasons. In 2016, MSU registered its third-consecutive season drawing at least 50,000 spectators at home and ranked among the nation’s top 30 FCS programs in average home attendance for the third consecutive year after the facility opened to rave reviews in 2014. The Bears drew 58,324 fans through the turnstiles in their five home games that season, an average of 11,665 per contest — good for 18th nationally. The club’s net total attendance in 2014 marked its best in five-game home schedule since 1996 and the top season figure overall since 2007.

A record-drawing crowd of 18,386 witnessed Missouri State’s 38-0 victory over North Dakota (Sept. 13) in its 2014 home opener. The standing-room-only crowd translated to 105 percent of the stadium’s new capacity and represented the top home crowd in Bears’ history, surpassing the previous 17-year-old record of 16,672, established Aug. 28, 1997 vs. Pittsburg State. The opening-night attendance also equaled the 26th-largest crowd — home or away — to see a Missouri State football game.

STRENGTH OF SCHEDULE

Missouri State can once again make a valid claim as having one of the toughest schedules in the Division I FCS ranks this fall. Based on STATS’ Preseason FCS Poll, the Bears are slated to meet 10 teams ranked among the top 25 or receiving votes in the poll.

Seven of the Bears’ eight MVFC foes entered the sea-son either ranked in the top 25 or receiving votes from the STATS voters. Over the last five seasons, MSU has squared off against a total of 30 ranked opponents. In fact, the Bears have played no fewer than three ranked opponents in any of the last 14 seasons. MSU has taken on a total of 50 top 25 clubs in the last nine seasons alone and brings a record of 24-97 against ranked foes into the 2017 campaign. The Bears posted a pair of top 25 wins last fall, defeating No. 20 NAU (40-8) and No. 9 Illinois State (24-21) at Plaster Stadium.

clearing 100k

The Bears played before a total of 127,289 fans last fall, marking the 15th consecutive season MSU topped the 125K annual attendance mark. MSU drew 44,432 fans in its five home dates at Plaster Stadium last season, after ranking 34th nationally in per-game average in the FCS ranks last year. The Bears have finished among the top 50 FCS schools in average home attendance in each of the last 24 seasons dating back to 1995.

MSU played in front of a total of 165,806 spectators in 2015, marking the fifth-highest combined home and road season attendance figure in program history. The Bears have played before more than 100,000 fans in each of the last 30 seasons, including a school-record 234,314 spectators in 2011.
