History
A LOOK AT THE BLUE DEVILS: Complete 2021 Blue Devil preview |
2019 Statistics
THE PASSING GAME: Sean Borgerding has been very efficient this season, completing 53 of 72 passes (73.6 percent) for 767 yards and nine TDs, completing passes to eight receivers and throwing TD passes to five different receivers.
Levy Hamer has hauled in three TD passes, catching 14 passes for 247 yards.
Parker Fossum has grabbed 15 passes so far this season, with one TD and 174 yours.
Arthur Cox and
Robvon Jackson have both pulled in two TD catches. Fullback
Camron LeMay has the other reception for a score, scampering 16 yards to paydirt. Jackson has an eye-popping 30.7 yards per catch, scoring TDs of 52 and 45 yards.
THE RUNNING GAME: Rayshawn Graham has taken the running game off quarterback
Sean Borgerding, who was the team's leading rusher in 2019. Graham, who before this year hadn't played since the 2018 season, certainly remembers where the end zone is, scoring seven TDs over the first three game. Graham is the first Stout player to score seven TDs over the first three games of the season since at least 1997. (Ryan Englebert scored six TDs over the first three games of the 2004 season.) Graham has netted 408 yards, has only lost 10 yards rushing and is averaging 7.0 yards per carry and 136.0 yards per game. While Borgerding has been sacked 12 times this season, he is still a force to be reckoned with when he gets loose, picking up 29 yards on one running play against St. Norbert. Borgerding has netted 39 yards and is averaging 4.3 yards per carry.
TOTAL OFFENSE: Stout is averaging 453.0 yards of total offense, 255.7 passing, 197.3 rushing.
DEFENSE: Cannon Griner has provided the Blue Devils a spark on defense, picking off the St. Norbert quarterback on the first play of the second half and giving Stout excellent field position by returning the interception 35 yards to the 8-yard line. Griner had another interception in the season opener against Presentation.
Mason Priebe also has two interceptions.
Ethan Olson has two and a half sacks, while
Riley Crotteau and
Rex Meikle each have one and a half. The Blue Devils are allowing 116.0 yards rushing, 173.7 yards passing.
CLIMBING THE LADDER: Into their third seasons, both
Levy Hamer and
Sean Borgerding continue their climbs up UW-Stout all-time lists. WR Hamer is currently third on the Stout all-time receiving list with 2098 yards on 132 receptions and jumped over Jesse Diaz (1885) and former teammate Kevion McDonald (1909). Hall of Famer Mark Rothwell is second on the list with 2255 yards. QB Borgerding currently has 5299 passing yards and moved up to fifth on the all-time passing list, surpassing Forrest Schneider (4992). Borgerding has completed 389 of 704 passes for 5299 yards with 47 TDs thrown, placing him fourth on the all-time TD thrown list ahead of Gale Woelffer (1948-51). Borgerding will have his sites set on Hank Kujak (2011-15), who has 5367 yards passing.
Rayshawn Graham is currently 16th on the UW-Stout all-time rushing list and if he keeps up his pace, he will climb a long ways up.
THE KICKING GAME: Freshman kicker/punter
Jack Meyer has played well in his first three games, and was selected at the WIAC special teams player of the week after kicking field goals of 46- and 52-yards, making all four extra points and averaging 37.3 yards per punt with no returns against St. Norbert. Meyer has made all four field goal attempts, including a long of 52 yards, and has made 11 of 14 extra points for 23 points.
PRESEASON POLLS: The Blue Devils
finished in a fifth in the competitive WIAC in 2019 and according to a preseason poll by WIAC football coaches and sports information directors, the Blue Devils are picked to finish fifth in 2021
. UW-Whitewater is picked to finish first, UW-Oshkosh second, UW-Platteville third, UW-La Crosse fourth, UW-Stout fifth, UW-Stevens Point sixth, UW-Eau Claire seventh and UW-River Falls eighth.
WHO'S WHO: WHITEWATER: Quarterback Max Meylor leads Whitewater in scoring with nine touchdowns on the season. Meylor is the only starting quarterback in the WIAC to not throw a interception yet this season. Whitewater's receiving corp is led by Tyler Holte and Ryan Wisniewski. Holte has 216 yards, which lands him the third spot in the WIAC. Wisniewski also leads the WIAC with an average of 91 yards per game with 11 receptions. On the ground, Whitewater's Alex Peete has scored six touchdowns with 195 yards. On the defensive end, the Warhawks have kept teams to less than 15 points, only allowing four touchdowns in their first three games. The Warhawk's defense has only allowed an average of 116 total offensive yards from opponents, leading the WIAC in defensive efficiency. Whitewater's defensive line is anchored by Mackenzie Balanganayi and Reed Farington both have three sacks each. Balanganayi holds the top spot in the WIAC for forced fumbles with two in the first three games. | Statistics

STOUT FOOTBALL HISTORY: Stout Institute played their first game on Nov. 4, 1911, when they lost to River Falls Normal School, 13-11. Walter Anderson scored Stout's first touchdown, an 85 yard kickoff return. A week later, Stout won their first game, 30-2, against LaCrosse Business School as Harvey Tice scored four touchdowns. The predecessor to the WIAC began in 1913 and Stout has won five conference titles - 1921, 1941, 1949, 1965 and 2000. Stout became the Blue Devils during the late 1920s or early 1930s. Football was not played during the war years of 1918, 1943, and 1944. Along the way, the school has gone through a number of name changes - Stout Institute, Stout State College, Stout State University and the University of Wisconsin-Stout. Stout celebrated 100 years of football with a season-long celebration and alumni reunion during the 2011 season. | A 10-week series on Stout football is available.
DON & NONA WILLIAMS STADIUM: UW-Stout's Don and Nona Williams Stadium got a facelift in 2018 with the installation of an updated surface. FieldTurf installed the FieldTurf Revolution 360. FieldTurf promotes this surface as having "optimal durability, resilience, and feel." A padding/drainage mat will be added, as well as flushing the current drainage system to make sure the field sheds water as designed. The field's layout will be similar to the previous markings and will again include markings for high school hash marks. The S logo at midfield has been replaced by the new Blaze head logo. The stadium, which was opened during the 2001 season, last had the stadium turf replaced during the summer of 2008 when the original Astroturf-type surface was replaced with ProGrass, a surface that more closely resembled natural grass. Don & Nona Williams Stadium was only the second artificial playing surface in the state of Wisconsin when it opened in 2001. At the time, the Wisconsin Badgers were the only Wisconsin college team that played their games on artificial turf. The Green Bay Packers had an artificial surface in their practice facility. Now, every WIAC school has an artificial surface, and many high schools in the state have followed suit.
UP NEXT: The Blue Devils will travel to UW-Eau Claire for the annual "War on 94" contest, Saturday, Oct. 9 at 6:10 p.m. at Carson Park.
