    Re: Illinois State

    I have my press credentials... going to be a little odd watching the game from the press box.

      Re: Illinois State

      Should have a good size crew from Yankton in Brookings this Saturday. I've got to work that morning and Sunday as well but I will get up there for the game. Weather looks reasonable.

      Saturday: Partly sunny, with a high near 63.

      Saturday Night: Mostly cloudy, with a low around 47.

          Me too...I thought maybe this would be the year that Brandon Gant was the 'deep' guy, but he has completely fallen off the depth chart since a promising freshman year.

            A few thoughts from a very unintelligent man (me).......

            1) We lost to Delaware, a very good team, now 11-1 against very good MVC teams. I'm not sure any team from the MVC would have beat UD in Newark. We should have played a better game, but it's not a catastrophic loss.

            2) This game against ISU is a "must win", with our difficult schedule we can't start 0-2this year, and we can't lose at home.

            3) Attendance will not suffer because of this loss, no one outside of the "educated" fan even understands. Casual fans will show up to see the first home games, and the "eduacated" fans will show up to see a good game. I expect around 13K to 14K.

            4) and perhaps the most contreversial: We have lost a lot of games in the Coach Stig era that make you think the team is under prepared and incapable of competing at this level; yet, we have recovered. We need to win seven games, and we will make the playoffs.

            Let's see what happens Saturday.

                        The game now, I think we win by 2 TDs at home against a reeling Illinois Team. 31-17. Go Jacks!

                            My uncle graduated from SDSU in '68. Has been a plant manager for a few different processors. Apparently the meat processing industry is like some gigantic SDSU alumni association.

                            BTW: Never really like beef jerky.


                            BTW2: It's stuff like this that makes SDSU so much more interesting than an oversized teacher's school (yes, I'm looking at *you* Illinois State)

                                Maybe before the game Stig will get the team jacked up by cranking a little "Holy Diver"...Ride the Tiger!....in the lockerroom.

                                But that may be stretch (sarcasm)......
