Tiffin University continued its climb of the NCAA Division II national rankings, rising to 21st in the latest AFCA poll.
Tiffin benefited from an impressive 35-24 win over Hillsdale on Senior Day, a victory that also figures to help their NCAA regional ranking. They travel to Findlay for their regular season finale unbeaten in GMAC play and looking to secure the conference title with a victory.
Losses by West Florida and Truman State helped the Dragons move up four spots from last week. They are the lone GMAC school represented in the poll.
The Dragon offense continues too roll in 2019, leading the conference by wide margins in both points per game (43.6) and total yards per game (517.2). Those marks are also 10th and 5th in the nation, respectively. Tiffin does it both on the ground and through the air, ranking 24th nationally in passing offense at 270.2 yards per game and 17th in rushing offense at 247.0 yards per game.
Tiffin also leads the GMAC in scoring defense (18.1 points allowed per game) and total defense (312.2 yards allowed per game). TU is 1st in the conference and is 19th nationally with 14 interceptions on the year.
