Week 4 Stats: 7 total tackles (2 solo), PBU, QB hurry

 
Saddler’s A-plus instincts and ability were on full display for the second week in a row. Following a career-high 12 stops at FBS member Akron, the defensive difference-maker was the Bulldogs’ leading tackler in a 34-17 non-conference road win over Marist. Saddler accounted for seven stops to lead an effort that blanked Marist during the first and fourth quarters while limited the opponent to fewer than 300 yards of offense for the game. The 6-foot-2 linebacker was also credited with a pass break-up and a quarterback hurry. Saddler made six tackles on run plays with four of those stops limiting the ball carrier to two yards or less.
