The Bellingham Bulldogs look to bounce
back after suffering a 12-38 loss last week to the Seattle Stations.
Cody Oakes continues to take snaps under center in relief of the
injured Eric Taylor as injuries to key players have left the Bulldogs
roster thin and fresh faces were called upon to setup their game. The
Roseburg Rampage made the 7 hour, 440 mile trip to Civic Field and
prove their worth in the Pacific Northwest football arena.
The Bellingham offense did not take
long to find their rhythm. Scoring quickly and often the Bulldogs
used their air attack to put a 21-point lead on the board in the
first quarter. Oakes found 3 different receivers for touchdowns.
Bellingham's defense dominated the line of scrimmage, not allowing a
sustained Rampage drive the entire first half. By halftime the
Bulldogs lead 28-0 and as the third quarter began Bellingham had
their confidence back.
Oakes again showed his talents by
scrambling for a 60-yard touchdown and throwing three more touchdowns
to his receivers. Including three touchdowns to wide receiver Douglas
Miller. The Bulldogs defense shut Roseburg out of the endzone. Not
allowing a single point to be scored. The game was in hand. The
Rampage were out-manned, over-powered and out-coached.
The Bellingham fans were also treated
to a rare on-field cameo appearance by the Bulldogs coaching staff
who decided to suit-up for a few plays. Coaches Brian Young, James
Darling, Addison Perrin and General Manager Don Oneida made their way
onto the field. The proud Bellingham Bulldogs have their swagger and
look to making a run at the playoffs. Final score: 55-0. Click here
