Re: Jacks at USD
This email was forwarded to me yesterday. I'm going to post it here because these guys are good people and would welcome any fun loving Jackrabbit fans that want to stop by.....
You may have heard that there is a little ball game coming up on Saturday. I would assume you and a few of your Yankton Jackrabbit friends maybe attending. The Yankton Howling Pack Chapter would like to extend an invitation to stop by and join our tailgate festivities. The tailgate spot just east of the main north entrance to the Dome (X marks the spot). New Harvest Land Brokers will be cooking 50 lbs of pork loins, Conkling Distributing with be providing beverages, and there will be the usual tailgate goodies. So stop by to visit, have sandwich, a beer and trade Red/Blue insultsL I’d appreciate it if you could pass this on thru the rabbitnet. The forecast is 60° and sunny, hope to see you there. Dare I say, FearRed…….

I'm getting annoyed by all this talk of how improved USD is. I hope the Jacks come out and boat race them. I originally guessed a 24-10 game, but I'm leaning more towards JackJD's guess as the week goes on.

Seriously though, I see the jacks winning by 13 or 14. USD will try to make a late surge, but our defense will hold out like it has all year.

Re: Jacks at USD
Just scored a pair of free tickets. I'm pumped. Should be a close game IMHO.

Originally posted by JackJD View PostI found my notes. What got me curious about the series-record discrepancy was a comment made by Mick Garry in the 11/23/14 Sunday Argus Leader. He pointed out that the two schools reported difference series records.
If you compare the all-time series records published by each school in their media guides, you will see that the information matches except for three years: 1900, 1901 and 1922.
1900: SDSU's records do not show a game with USD in 1900. USD shows a 17-0 win over SDSU that year.
1901: USD's records show two games against SDSU, a 22-0 USD win and a 6-0 USD win. SDSU's records show just one game that year, the 22-0 USD win.
1922: SDSU's records show two games against USD, a USD win of 15-7 and a 7-7 tie. USD's records show only the 7-7 tie.
USD's records show all-time ties at 7 while SDSU has reported ties at 6. My review of the records showed there were seven ties. The media-guide info from each school shows the following seven ties: 1889, 6-6; 1904, 6-6; 1922, 7-7; 1926, 0-0; 1932, 0-0; 1952, 21-21; and 1976, 17-17.
Looking at media guides does not resolve the actual fact of wins and losses. I would argue that since there is agreement in the media guides about ties (except for SDSU's statement of total ties), that we can all agree there were seven ties. (And, since ties can't happen any more, who cares?) There are stories/legends/claims -- call them what you will and who knows if some or all or true or false -- that, if true, may explain the discrepancy depending on the accuracy of the stories/legends/claims. For example, in a year in which the teams played twice, was one game an exhibition game and was agreed in advance to not be counted?
Was it possible that one team could count a game while the other called it exhibition? We do that today in basketball (e.g. SDSU hosts DWU but SDSU lists it as exhibition while DWU lists it as a counter.
I think the discrepancy can only be resolved with some certainty by resorting to outside sources, the most obvious being a daily newspaper's reports of the games played in 1900, 1901 and 1922. I know the Watertown Public Opinion is available on microfilm for public searching at the Watertown Regional Library. Likely the Argus Leader is available too.

Originally posted by HoboJack View PostI could have sworn Terry V had an article about this in the past (maybe when we first played them again), and the issue was rooted in a single game played where the outcome was disputed. The other game in question was counted as a scrimmage for SDSU (i.e. not a real game) and a counter for USD due to the number of games they could have in a season.

Originally posted by RabbitObsessed View PostThat doesn't make sense. He didn't say they have defeated heavyweights. If that's what was written, then your argument makes sense. Since they beat NDSU it shows that they are cap or beating the best teams in the league. They only have beaten one, but they have shown that it is a possibility that it happens.
