2019 Bobcat Football Schedule Released

The Peru State football team will be faced with a solid slate of opponents in 2019. Their list of foes includes four teams in the NAIA Coaches’ Preseason Top 25 Poll which was released on August 5 with another team which is receiving votes to begin the season. With fall practice getting under way, the team knows what is ahead of them as they look to improve upon a 3-8 2018 season.

The schedule changes a little for each Heart of America Athletic Conference (Heart) team this fall as Clarke (Iowa) will be in their first full year as a football program. With the addition of the Pride, the 2019 schedule is completely against Heart opponents. The first six games will be against south division opponents while the last five games will be against north division teams.

The Bobcats open their season against Missouri Valley at home on August 31 at 1 p.m. in the historic Oak Bowl. At halftime, the annual Swenson Award will be presented to the top male and female student-athletes from 2018-19.
