    WIU RB Gavin reportedly "appears" to be ruled out for today's game, and QB Sampson and other 'necks may be nursing injuries sustained last week (Sampson's was apparently a late injury).

    In other words, not the time to be visiting Tolu, Krockett, Logan, and the boys at an inhospitable Rabbit Den

      One thing I'm hoping for, regardless of how fast or slow we start, that we have a strong 2nd half. Even if we're up big, I'd especially like to see Gronowski get a bunch of throws in during the 3rd quarter so he can get some practice dealing with halftime adjustments and making different reads from the first half.

        I'm wondering if this might be a game that isn't as illuminating for us regarding Gronowski. I think PSJ might run rampant, and the Jacks defense will have at least one score.

          Hopefully goes better then the womens game. Hope its not a sign of things to come.

            After last week's horrible showing in Grand Forks, I don't have a lot of faith in this team.

            We used to be so sound in special teams and not many mistakes. Now it's dumb penalties, turnovers, undisciplined play that started last year. This team misses Eidsness badly as OC.

              I liked Eidsness as OC, but let's not forget that Jacks had Wieneke, Christion, Zenner, and Goedert during his tenure, and some of the issues you mentioned are at least somewhat a function of a younger team.

                If Jacks lose, we can blame the "Heinert jinx"

                  Sorry but i was happy to see hienert calling the game. Hes good, calls a fair game and no homer or bias.

                  didnt see the low hit on the qb but great blitz. Is that our first defensive take away this year?

                      So far the footbLl game is making me feel better.

                      I also like the umpire in the middle he is freakishly tall it seems. Hard to realize but watch when he is standing next to lineman eith helmet and pads on and he is just as big or taller.

                        I don't have an issue with Heinert either. No, Tetzlaff had INT of Schuster at UND

                          Special teams play still less than special.

                            Oh yeah. Isnt 4th down stops a TO technically.

                            Ugh another fake punt and then we struggle. Who ever is special teams coach is going to be on the hot seat soon.

                              yeah wow! the special teams play is really disappointing((! this is an area that we have been consistently excellent for basically the entire tenure of stig as HC. generally we even outperform the bison in this part of the game.

                              guessing as someone who basically made his name as a special teams guy that stig will take whatever steps needed to put an end to this
