LAST TIME OUT: UW-STOUT: UW-Stout's strong defense helped pave the way to a huge 55-0 win over WIAC opponent UW-Stevens Point. Stout held the Pointers to only 131 yards while recording 594 of their own. Stevens Point (1-5, 0-3 WIAC) was unable to get past the Blue Devil's defense and was unable to stop the Blue Devil's offense. Stout improves to 4-2 on the season and 2-1 in the WIAC. Stout didn't allow a single score from the Pointers offense, recording their first shut out since the opening game of the 2017 season where Stout won 17-0 against Simpson College.

LAST TIME OUT: UW-OSHKOSH:  It was a defensive battle under the lights as the No. 19/21 UW-Oshkosh Titans (3-3, 1-2 WIAC) dropped their second conference game to the No. 3/3 UW-Whitewater Warhawks (5-1, 3-0 WIAC), 17-3. Nolan Mobley made a 39-yard field goal in the fourth quarter for the Titans lone scoring drive of the game.

WHEN STOUT AND OSHKOSH LAST MET: In a game that had eight different lead changes, UW-Oshkosh scored a 68-yard touchdown on a fourth and three with only 14 seconds left to top UW-Stout 43-36 Saturday at Williams Stadium. Sean Borgerding finished the game with 295 passing yards to go along with four touchdowns. Kobe Berghammer had 240 yards passing and four touchdowns. Berghammer also led the Titans rushing attack with 189 rushing yards and a touchdown. Blue Devil's Matt Pomietlo led the team with 116 yards including a touchdown. Levy Hamer led Stout in receiving yards with 11 receptions on 161 yards and two touchdowns. Titan's Trae Tony Steger led in receiving with 92 yards and a touchdown. Stout's Cannon Griner finished the game with 16 total tackles. Haydon Miller had seven tackles including a sack. 

THE SERIES: Oshkosh leads the all time series 42-22-1 since 1947. Oshkosh has bested the Blue Devils in the past 11 games.

A LOOK AT THE BLUE DEVILS: Stout is currently receiving seven votes in the most recent DIII Top 25 poll. The Stout offensive is putting up impressive numbers, averaging 470.0 yards per game (238.0 passing, 232.0 rushing) and scoring around 40.5 points per game. The defense is holding teams to only 348.3 yards per game (209.7 passing, 138.7 rushing) and has taken the ball away 11 times.

THE PASSING GAME: Sean Borgerding leads the team at QB, inching closer to the all-time record for passing yards. Borgerding has thrown 100 completions with 1335 yards and 14 touchdowns. On the receiving end of those passes has been Levy Hamer, Arthur Cox, Parker Fossum, and Will Knutson. Hamer leads the corps with 409 yards and five touchdowns on 22receptions. Cox has 328 yards and three touchdowns on 26 receptions. Fossum has three touchdowns with 243 yards and Knutson has 144 yards. Others catching TD passes are Ben Tolkein, Caleb Timm, and Bradley Sarauer. Cox and Hamer are tied on the leader board for scoring in the WIAC. They sit at fifth with five touchdowns each. Cox has three receiving, one rushing, and one kick off return. 

THE RUNNING GAME: Carter Fonger is leading the team in yards gained, despite having one of the fewest carries. Fonger has taken the ball 274 yards and has reached the end zone five times in only 14 carries. Fonger is averaging 17.5 yards a carry. Three of Fonger's four touchdowns have been from over 50 yards out (51, 55, 67). QB Mitch Waetcher is averaging 14.5 yards per carry, recording 160 yards in 11 carries. Waetcher has also ran for two touchdowns. Ben Tolkinen has 26 carries and Arthur Cox has 21 carries, Tolkinen has 197 yards and Cox has 164. Chase Hughes has made it to the end zone three times while Cox and Tolkinen have made it twice. Jacob Kopacz and Josh Schlangen have all made it to the end zone once.

TOTAL OFFENSE: Stout has recorded 2820 total yards, throwing for 1428 yards and rushing for 1392 yards.

DEFENSE: Cannon Griner and Mack Klafter lead Stout in tackles, recording 47.0 and 33.0 respectively. Griner also has an interception and a forced fumble, both against Gustavus Adolphus earlier in the season. Klafter has made 4.5 tackles for a loss including a sack. Nick Arguedas and Scott Gustafson each have 29.0 tackles. Gustafson has 2.0 sacks for a total loss of 11 yards. Wyatt Beyerl and Quinton Williams each have recorded two sacks. Gervase Thomspon has also recorded two sacks that have resulted in a loss of 32 yards. Andrew Thompson and Dylan Larrabee each have 3.0 tackles for a loss. Q. Williams and Nathan Williamson each have a fumble recovery, and Williamson also recorded a blocked field goal. Carter Johnson has picked the ball off twice, six other Blue Devils have also recorded an interception.

THE KICKING GAME: Luck Cool has made 29 of 32 extra point attempts and even when he had a PAT blocked, Cool scooped up the ball and ran it in for a two-point conversion against UW-Eau Claire. Cool was 2 for 3 in extra points against Gustavus Adolphus, 9 for 9 against Crown, 8 for 10 against UW-Eau Claire, and 7 for 7 against UW-Stevens Point. It is safe to say Cool is one of very few Blue Devil kickers - possibly the only Stout kicker - to ever run for a 2-point conversion. Looking back through 1996, no Stout kicker has run for a 2-point conversion. College football instituted the 2-point conversion in 1958. Cool is second for scoring in the WIAC with 43 points.

CLIMBING THE LADDER: QB Sean Borgerding and WR Levy Hamer are both within striking distance of securing a place in their respective categories on Stout's all-time list.

Borgerding, a three-time WIAC honorable mention selection, has completed 641 of 1136 passes for 8748 yards, with 81 touchdowns. Borgerding passed Matt Bunyan (8562/1986-1989) with his 295 yards against UW-Eau Claire. Now, he only needs 133 yards to tie Tim Peterson (8881 yards/1986-89) at the top of all-time passing yards. His 81 touchdowns only trail Bunyan, who had 85 in his time as a Blue Devil. Last season, Borgerding completed 205 of 327 passes for 2872 with 29 touchdowns and eight interceptions. Only Bunyan (3230 yds, 1998/3221 yds, 1997) and Peterson (2956, 1989) have thrown more yards in a single season and only Bunyan (38 TDs, 1998/33 TDs, 1997) has thrown more touchdowns in a single season. 

Borgerding will need 133 more yards and four touchdowns to tie the top spot in all-time passing yards and all-time passing touchdowns.

Hamer, a second team all-region pick in 2021, has been a recipient of many of Borgerding's passes. Hamer is currently second on the Blue Devils' all-time receiving list, pulling in 200 passes for 3222 yards and 31 touchdowns. Hamer trails only Scott Frederickson (1986-89) in receptions and yards. Frederickson has 233 receptions for 3390 yards. Hamer currently holds the record for most career receiving touchdowns with 31, ahead of Frederickson with 26. Hamer is currently fourth on the all-time scoring list with 190 points, right behind Drew Pearson who has 202. Running back Luke Bundgaard (2000-03) is the all-time scoring leader with 240 points. Hamer led the WIAC in receiving yards per game last year, averaging 96.2 yards over 10 games. Hamer was fourth in the WIAC in scoring with 74 points. 

Hamer only needs 168 yards to tie for the most receiving yards all time.

BIG KICKOFF RETURNS: Arthur Cox's 95 yard kickoff return for a touchdown was the longest kickoff return since Noel Gonzalez returned a kickoff 96 yards for a touchdown against UW-Stevens Point, Nov. 5, 2016 at Stevens Point. Mike Bechtel returned a 98-yard kickoff return against UW-Whitewater, Oct. 14, 1995 on the Blue Devils' homecoming. Carlos Concepcion returned a kick 90 yards for a score against UW-Eau Claire, Oct. 23, 2010. Jesse Wendt, who holds the school single season record for kickoff return average, returned a kickoff 90 yards in 2004. Tony Beckham did not have any 90-plus yard returns, but in back-to-back seasons, the future NFL draftee returned an 88-yard kickoff and an 89-yard return in 2000 and 2001, respectively. The school record for kickoff return is 102 yards for a score by Glen Harke in 1959 against Winona State.

FIELD GOAL BLOCK & RETURN: During the 2015 season, Travis Shackleton blocked a 29-yard field goal attempt by UW-La Crosse in La Crosse, Oct. 10, 2015, and Enzo Rosani scooped up the ball on the La Crosse 14, returning it 86 yards for a score. The blocked kick was Shackleton's first career block and the touchdown was Rosani's first collegiate TD. There was no mention in the UW-Stout, the WIAC or the NCAA record books for returning blocked field goal attempts. There is now a category in the Stout record book. After sending out a request to NCAA Division III sports information directors, the following list of blocked field goals was compiled.

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. 

EUROPEAN FLAVOR: UW-Stout coach Clayt Birmingham has been active in raising the popularity of American football in Europe and has made several trips to Europe to participate in workshops and coaching clinics. Quentin Danès, a football coach from France, spent two weeks in the Blue Devils' 2019 training camp. During the 2018 season, the Blue Devils had a coach from Germany into preseason camp for a couple of days. Enzo Rosani began his career as a Blue Devil, joining Stout as a cornerback from France on the 2014 roster. In all likelihood, Rosani is the only international student to have played football for UW-Stout for four seasons. Rosani earned All-WIAC second team honors. For the 2019 season, Quentin Danes spent two weeks during the preseason working with the coaching staff. Danes was a teammate of Rosani on the French national team...The Blue Devils have consistently welcomed European coaches to their training camp. In 2011 it was Nico Teichert and Johannes Fiebig from Germany getting an up close look at American football. The Blue Devils also had Antti Kurenniemi, a native of Finland, on their roster in 2011.
