The Ferris State University football team began training camp for the 2022 season in early August.

The Ferris State University football team has not lost a regular season game in its last three seasons. Last year, the program won its first ever NCAA Division II national championship. Rick Brewer recently went to a football practice in Big Rapids to see how the team is preparing to defend its title as the regular season begins this evening versus Central Washington.
