The Bluffton University football team hosted Rose-Hulman on a cool Saturday, Oct. 12, afternoon. The balanced run/pass attack by the Engineers was all too much for the Beavers as RHIT spolied Bluffton's Homecoming with a 28-14 victory over the Beavers.

After a scoreless first quarter, Rose-Hulman would get on the board first in the second period when Garrett Wright shoved it in for a 3-yard touchdown run to make it 7-0 Engineers with 3:04 left in the first half.
