The Bulldogs secured a 34:29 victory over the Bears in regular-season NFL action on Saturday, 3 October 2026. The result extends a positive run for the hosts, who have now won two of their last three outings.
The Bears came into the fixture on the back of consecutive wins, having edged past the Blue Bears 28:27 on 26 September before overcoming the Panthers 34:28 on 12 September. By then the momentum was clearly on their side, but the visitors could not sustain their recent form.
The Bulldogs' recent record tells a different story. After a heavy defeat to the Hornets 6:21 and a loss to the Trojans 13:42, they have clawed their way back with victories over the Vikings 34:23 on 26 September and now the Bears.
The final scoreline suggests a match decided in the closing stages rather than a comfortable home performance. The visitors took the lead at times and held on grimly to put pressure on the hosts, but the extra five points proved decisive.
The result leaves the Bulldogs with renewed confidence ahead of their next fixture. The Bears' three-game winning streak comes to an end, and they will need to regroup quickly given the tight margins involved in their recent victories.
