Game Week: Duquesne

Re: Game Week: Duquesne

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.

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.

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

Re: Game Week: Duquesne

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.

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.

Re: Game Week: Duquesne

Any key injuries to worry about? (ie Rumor started on bisonville that Goedert was seen in a boot with a calf injury, weird how no media knows about this).

Zimmer from the Argus is/was at practice today and tweeted a picture of Goedert in uniform.

I'd take the bypass exit and then turn straight into the backyard. The Elkton exit will force you to drive thru town...and that is a nightmare.

Re: Game Week: Duquesne

I really like this match up for us to start the season. They are far from a pushover, so they'll challenge us. Yet, there is a large enough talent gap where the chances of losing the game is minimal.

Hope we get some young guys some PT and Duquesne gives us some good tape to work with for the following week against Montana State.

This is what I'm worried about. If they're dominant, then SDSU is a contender. I'm really worried about this group.

Anyways, looking forward to the game!

That'd likely be my preference on a Sat., but I normally park on the south side of campus to avoid post-game traffic. I'm just hoping to get there early enough to get the "swagnets" they're handing out to the early fans.

Or 22nd (1st RH Turn) to Hy-Vee then to Medary or various other options.

I would use the bypass exit when coming to the game. But I would suggest the Elkton exit for departure and head out of town using Main St. They have installed temporary lights at the bypass exit and when busy, it gets really backed up. Move in weekend...the bypass intersection was really backed up and slow as there is a lack of turning lanes. Slow lights with no turning lanes means traffic can hardly move. Now I hope they realize this and put cops out there to control this traffic but I wouldn't bet on that.

Me too. I need one for my garage fridge.
