The Bengals will enter the game with the reigning Special Teams Player of the Week in the Big Sky in punter/kickoff specialist Dan Zeidman.
The Bengals, who have not won in Flagstaff since the 1984 season, will be taking on a team that is 3-3 overall and 2-1 in the conference after a harrowing 44-43 win over the Portland State Vikings, a game in which PSU misfired on a two-point conversion with six seconds left. The Lumberjacks are headed up by the dean of Big Sky Coaches in Jerome Sauers.
