Bloomsburg has had a winning record every year since 1999. - The Huskies have not lost to Millersville since 1999 (31-21 at home), winning 14 straight games over the Marauders. - Eddie Mateo leads the PSAC with 11 rushing touchdowns and has scored at least one touchdown in every game this year.

THE GAME

The Huskies welcome PSAC East rival Millersville to Danny Hale Field at Robert B. Redman Stadium this Saturday as part of Homecoming Weekend, the second year in a row Bloomsburg has faced Millersville on Homecoming. The Marauders have struggled this season, being outscored 263-91 including 217-47 since squandering a 30-13 third quarter lead in a season-opening 46-44 loss at home to Livingstone on Sept. 4. In particular, Millersville has had trouble stopping the run – opponents are averaging 288.4 yards per game on the ground and have totaled 20 rushing touchdowns on the year against the Marauders defense. Bloomsburg, meanwhile, has scored 16 of its 17 offensive touchdowns on the ground and averages 180.2 yards rushing.
