Re: Game Week: Duquesne

Man reading Matt Zimmers comments he s awful worried about our DTs and OLB, about make me nervous going up against a good run game. But the experience will be priceless for our young guys.

I'm happy this game is Thursday. 2 less days to wait!

That is the silver lining, although if this goes into OT, I am going to want to find a stuffed Duke mascot (or even an actual one) to pulverize.

Taking off work at 11:30 am Thursday to make the five and a half hour drive to Estelline. Get there in time to drop off my things at my sisters and pick up the brother-in-law for the game and head back in to Brookings to pick up the tickets.

You may get the trophy for longest drive to game! Go Jacks!!

Re: Game Week: Duquesne

FYI ALL: the northbound exit for 6th St is CLOSED. All traffic coming from the south will have to use the bypass exit or the Elkton exit. This was very short-sighted by the SD DOT as they could have easily done there bridges in a different order. It would be nice if they got like 14 thousand complaints.

P.S. it looked as though it could be open for the next home game

Thanks for this information. It helped me finalize my plan to use the Elkton exit when venturing from SF.

Re: Game Week: Duquesne

I'm feeling 45-17. I really didn't like the late scores we gave up to Drake last year and I hope it doesn't happen in this one or the upcoming Drake game. I want to see some killer mentality (which I know isn't Stig's strength, but it would be nice to see). No mercy.

What a whiner! Driving a he'll of a lot further than Sioux Falls for the game. It's not like we didn't know it was going to be a Thursday game for some time now.

I hated it when I was announced it was a Thursday game.

I am glad you and others will be going on a Thursday.

Re: Game Week: Duquesne

Your just not gonna weaken on the Thursday deal are ya?

nope, taking a 3 and 6 year old on Thursday and its late getting back to SF and have to work the next morning and kids cant sleep in. And no way I am taking PTO either day for a football game that should be on Saturday. Saturday game we have 4 or 6 people there. Thursday, and I am just glad midco does a good job with their coverage.

I am going 45-10 and 12k and I still hate Thursday games.

Re: Game Week: Duquesne

Im going to go with 41-21 Jacks, 13K attendance. Im skeptical of the Jacks defense, and I remember a couple garbage scores by Drake last year to make that game look a lot tighter than it really was. I would love for the Jacks to make a statement but I wouldn't be surprised if they win by less than 20.

Re: Game Week: Duquesne

I don't see this as anything but a warm-up and will predict a final score of 49-10. I am not sure on the attendance as it is a Thursday, but will say anywhere from 9,000 to 15,000. Hopefully the students stay for the second half if it is a blowout early.

Re: Game Week: Duquesne

I predict a 44-13 Jackrabbit victory in front of 15,000 fans. I'm not too excited about a Thursday game, but a Saturday game over Labor Day weekend would have been a disaster attendancewise. I hope the Dykhouse is filled with drunk, rowdy college kids. Go Jacks!
