In DeSanti’s first season, the Bison averaged 14.1 points and 283.9 yards per game including 204.2 through the air. Against No. 8 nationally ranked Grove City in Week 4, the Bison air attack totaled 380 yards to score 22 points which is the second-most the Wolverines would allow all season. The offense’s biggest run-game came against Waynesburg in Week 6 as Bison rushers combined for 155 yards.
