This past Saturday Indiana State held their second scrimmage of fall camp. This particular event gathered my attention because of the quarterback situation in Terre Haute.

The first team offense was led by Mike Perish who led the squad efficiently (7-9, 82 yards, 1 TD). I was hard on Indiana State on my predictions for this season. However if Mike Perish proves to be a viable replacement for Ronnie Fouch then Indiana State could easily contend for the MVFC this season. I mean, really, the only thing he has to do is hand the ball to Shakir Bell and complete a few passes here and there. The anticipated 2nd string QB is Robert Tonyan, Jr. He also performed well in the scrimmage (9-17, 145 yards, 1 TD). Shakir Bell apparently saw limited action; Richie Dyer handled most of the carries for the first-team offense according to gosycamores.com.
The Sycamores weren't the only team scrimmaging on Saturday. Youngstown State, Missouri State, and Southern Illinois all held official scrimmages. Western Illinois practiced and finished up fall camp with a pep rally.
