Motown Bound: Hounds Battle Wayne State Saturday Night

WEEK 3
at Wayne State Warriors (0-2)
Saturday // September 21
6 p.m. ET // Detroit

The 16th-ranked UIndy football team returns to non-conference play this weekend, as they travel to Detroit to face the Warriors of Wayne State University. The Greyhounds are 2-0 on the young season after coming off a 41-34 victory against Truman in last week's GLVC opener.

The Hounds own a 14-10 advantage in the all-time series versus Wayne State. The former GLIAC rivals have met just three times since since UIndy jumped to the GLVC in 2012—all UIndy wins. Last season, UIndy earned a 28-7 victory at Key Stadium, holding the visiting Warriors scoreless for all but the final four-plus minutes with an impressive defensive effort.

The teams' last battle in Detroit came in the fall of 2017, ending in a 31-28 UIndy win. With the game tied at 28-28, UIndy started its final possession at its own 22-yard line and just 57 seconds showing on the clock before driving down for the game-winning score—a 30-yard field goal from Brad Schickel as time expired.
