Bronx, N.Y. - The Fordham University Rams continue their 2018 season, Fordham's 118th varsity season, by hosting the Bryant University Bulldogs in their final nonconference game of the season on Jack Coffey Field on Saturday, October 20, at 1:00 p.m.
 
The game will be streamed live on Stadium and on Facebook watch with Matt Martucci (p-b-p), Dave Owens (color), and Meghan Kluth (sidelines) announcing and broadcast live on WFUVsports.org with Raffaele Elia (p-b-p), Emmanuel Berbari (color) and Chris Boccia (sidelines) handling the announcing chores.
 
Fordham enters the game with a 1-5 record, 1-1 in the Patriot League, coming off a 43-14 league win at Lehigh last week, while Bryant enters the game with a 4-2 overall mark, 2-1 in the Northeast Conference, and is coming off a 48-14 loss to Central Connecticut State in Smithfield, R.I., last Saturday.
 
This will be the fourth meeting between Fordham and Bryant on the gridiron with the Bulldogs leading the all-time series, 2-1. Bryant took last year's meeting, 45-40, in Smithfield on September 23 as Price Wilson completed 26 of 44 passes for 393 yards and two scores for the Bulldogs.
