The Thunderbirds did the majority of their damage on the ground. Jay Green Jr. rushed for 134 yards and three touchdowns during the contest, and SUU quarterback Patrick Tyler scored two touchdowns on the ground as well. Tyler also threw for 238 yards during the course of the game. Landen Measom was the leading receiver for the Thunderbirds in the contest, catching eight passes from Tyler. Jarmaine Doubs led the Thunderbirds with seven tackles in the contest. All-Conference Honors The Thunderbirds were well represented when the Big Sky Conference released their All-Conference teams last week, with 22 different T-Birds being recognized by the conference for their play during the season. SUU had four players make the All-Conference First Team list, with Zach Larsen, Anu Pole’o, Mike Needham and Jarmaine Doubs Jr. all earning the recognition. Named to the Big Sky All-Conference Second Team was Marquez Tucker, James Felila, Robert Torgerson and Chinedu Ahanonu. Third Team members included PJ Nu’usa, Sefesi Vaa’ivaka, Taylor Pili and Taylor Nelson. 10 more Thunderbirds were named Honorable Mentions to the All-Conference Teams. Our Coach of the Year SUU head coach Demario Warren was awarded the title of Big Sky Conference Coach of the Year in recognition of what the team was able to accomplish this season. He shared the honor with Jody Sears from Sacramento State. In just his second year in charge of the Thunderbird program, Warren led his team to a 9-2 overall record and a 7-1 record in Big Sky Conference play. Warren has also been very solid at home, sitting with a 9-1 record over two years at Eccles Coliseum. SOUTHERN UTAH FOOTBALL 2017 SOUTHERN UTAH UNIVERSITY THUNDERBIRDS Going into the season the Thunderbirds were picked to finish seventh in the league. It’s fair to say that they proved plenty of people wrong this season. Warren led the Thunderbirds to their second Big Sky Conference title in three seasons, when the Thunderbirds knocked off Northern Arizona 48-20 in their final game of the season. He also led the team back to the FCS Playoffs for the third time in five years. Southern Utah also won nine Division I games in a single season for the first time in the history of the program. Overall, Warren now sits with a 15-7 overall record. Rank ‘Em The Thunderbirds might have earned the No. 8 seed in the FCS Playoffs, but they also reached their highest ranking ever in both the FCS Coaches’ Poll and the STATS FCS Poll following their performance against Northern Arizona. The T-Birds were No. 12 in the final STATS FCS Poll moving up two spots from their previous ranking in that poll. In the FCS Coaches Poll they moved up from No. 18 to No. 13. Coming into the season the highest ranking the Thunderbirds reached was No. 15 during the 2015 campaign. Home Field Advantage Losing at home over the last three seasons has been a rare occurrence for the Thunderbirds. This season they finished 5-0 at Eccles Coliseum. In 2016 they finished 4-1, with the lone loss coming against Weber State. And in 2015 they were again undefeated, finishing with a perfect 5-0 record at home. This season the Thunderbirds also broke the attendance record on two separate occasions. Most recently, 10,842 fans packed Eccles Coliseum to watch the Thunderbirds knock off the Lumberjacks. SOUTHERN UTAH FOOTBALL 2017 SOUTHERN UTAH UNIVERSITY THUNDERBIRDS Opponent Preview: Weber State Wildcats After finishing the regular season 9-2 and claiming a share of the Big Sky Conference championship, the Wildcats of Weber State knocked off Western Illinois 21-19 in the opening round of the FCS Playoffs. The victory was Weber State’s third playoff win in the history of the program. Weber State quarterback Stefan Cantwell threw for 186 yards and three touchdowns during the contest. His top receiver was Andrew Vollert, who caught eight passes for 112 yards and a touchdown. He also hit Drew Batchelor four times for 52 yards and two touchdowns. Cantwell also led the team in rushing with 43 yards on the ground. The Wildcats caused a lot of damage in the oppositions pocket, as they finished the day with four sacks. Xequille Harry had an interception for the Wildcats and Jordan Preator led the team with 11 tackles. Recent Series History vs. Weber State In the regular season edition of the Beehive Bowl, the Thunderbirds were able to knock off the Wildcats in Ogden with a 32-16 victory. Patrick Tyler had a big game through the air against Weber State, throwing for 281 yards and three touchdowns. He found Logan Parker six times for 118 yards and two touchdowns, including a long touchdown on the opening play of the game that went for six. Chinedu Ahanonu and Mike Needham both had big defensive outings. Ahanonu had 13 tackles and 1.5 tackles for loss, while Needham finished the game with 11 tackles and two tackles for loss. Both Chance Bearnson and Jalen Russell had an interception in the contest for the T-Bird defense. Big Sky At a Glance Southern Utah and Weber State are the only two teams that remain in the FCS Playoffs from the Big Sky Conference, meaning that only one will remain when the weekend is over. The Big Sky initially had three teams in the field, but the Lumberjacks of Northern Arizona fell to the University of San Diego in the opening round 41-10. NAU ended the season with a 7-5 overall record. SOUTHERN UTAH FOOTBALL 2017 SOUTHERN UTAH UNIVERSITY THUNDERBIRDS Words From Coach Warren On what the Big Sky Conference title means to him….. “It’s another step in the right direction,” Warren said. “We’ve been working on a program that could gain both Big Sky respect and National respect, and having two conference championships in the last three years I think we’re starting to gain that. Hopefully now were expected to be in the conference title race every single year.” On what differences, if any, he’s seen from Weber State since the teams last played….. “They’re moving some guys around a little bit more than they did earlier in the season,” Warren said. “Cantwell is obviously playing at a high level

  • Because We Can
    Southern Utah University Presidential Ambassadors 2013-2014 because we can Page 1 Campus Tour Information “Catch on fire with Enthusiasm and people will come for miles to watch you burn.” John Wesley Page 2 HERE’S thE DEAL Campus tours are essential to effective recruiting. As an Ambassador you are the initial contact for future students. You become the face and voice of Southern Utah University. “For despite all the money that colleges and universities spend on brochures, Web sites and other marketing efforts, high school students and their parents often base their impressions of an institution on the young man or woman who has led them around campus for 45 minutes (Lombardi, 2006).” So here’s the deal: “Nobody cares how much you know, until they know how much you care!” The purpose of a campus tour at Southern Utah University is to make a personal connection with future T-birds! Long after they’ve forgotten the date the Business Building was built, they will remember how you made them feel. Your job is to help them see how they can belong at SUU. To help with this objective, each Ambassador should make it their goal to learn at least four new things about the future student that can be addressed on the follow-up postcard. For example, you might ask, “What are your high school colors?” or “What extra-curricular activities are you involved with?” or “How many people are in your family?” and “How many have gone to college?” Make sure to remember their answers and then you can personalize their follow-up postcard with comments like: “Good luck in next week’s volleyball game,” or “I hope everything works out with your AP exam.” Proper conduct as a tour guide is also essential.

  • Big Sky Announces Additions of North Dakota, Southern Utah
    BIG SKY ANNOUNCES ADDITIONS OF NORTH DAKOTA, SOUTHERN UTAH OGDEN, UTAH (November 1, 2010) - The Big Sky Conference is privileged to announce that the University of North Dakota and Southern Utah University have accepted invitations to become core members of the Division I conference. Both institutions received formal invitations from the league Friday, Oct. 29, advancing a process that began when the presidents of the nine current Big Sky Conference core universities approved expansion plans at their annual fall meeting on Oct. 20. Both institutions will officially join the Big Sky on July 1, 2012. However, representatives from both institutions will begin working immediately with the currently membership on scheduling, marketing, and other conference matters. “The presidents wanted to position the Big Sky Conference as a major player in football in the West,’’ said Big Sky Conference Commissioner Doug Fullerton. “But most importantly, we wanted the right kinds of schools. Our presidents have always been driven by adding institutions that fit with the schools we currently have. We’ve added two institutions that meet the criteria, and we’ve positioned ourselves to meet the visions of the presidents. We’re building a new kind of FCS confer- ence.” Monday’s additions bring the future Big Sky to 11 core members and 13 football playing members. The Big Sky Confer- ence is also on the verge of announcing the addition of the University of South Dakota as a 12th core member. The Big Sky will become a 14-team football league and split into two seven-team divisions. The Big Sky does not anticipate losing any of its current nine core members.
