Thanks, filbert. As a word nerd, that was bugging me, too.

To keep the two separate & distinct, you can think of the two rivers " the mighty miss(mississippi)" and the "mighty Mo (missouri)"

No problem, I figured you guys would like to see some photos.

Beat the crap out of NDSU for everyone in the MVFC.

Oops, 3-0 indeed!

Another stat that TV threw out, Minnett is the 1st to get 100 yards on MSU. That includes UNI and Arkansas.

Thanks MSUBear. Pics were great and I did enjoy them. The announced crowd was 10,000 + but in the pics there appears to a bunch of open seats. It 10+ and accurate number?

Good luck to the bears the rest of the season.

I believe the 10k was tix sold... Probably closer to 8500.

I'll post some of the pics I took at the game after I get a chance to really go through them.

Re: Missouri State GDT

I recorded the game as the wife and I were in SF, and watched it last night.

MAN, I couldn't believe some of the throws TOB made. Talk about threading a needle between 2 (or 3) defenders.

Also, again wasn't real impressed with the defensive play. Gave up way to many yards for a unit that has been so highly touted.

Also, great pics, MSU, but man, the Mo. St. field is kind of a double whammy in my eyes...a track AND soccer lines?! Bleh. But the field did look nice, other than the soccer lines, as did the stadium in general.

They also had field hockey (I think it was field hockey) lines

Re: Missouri State GDT

If they didn't decide to use "penalty flag"-yellow for the soccer and (stupid freakin title-9) field hockey lines, it would be fine, but they stand out and ruin the field.

It's one of the best surfaces I've ever ran on (list includes OK State, Mizzou, and the Edward Jones Dome), but the lines are just nasty.

I thought the stadium looked nice. And the campus around it looked very good, too. Must be a nice setting for football.

Re: Missouri State GDT

From one of the stories (thanks for the links, LakeJack):

Allowing a short South Dakota State kickoff to fall untouched allowed the Jackrabbits to recover at the MSU 32. That set up a short-field touchdown drive and gave the Jackrabbits a 14-3 lead. Ironically, SDSU coach John Stiegelmeier said the kick was intended to go deep.

While listening to the game on WNAX, I was interrupted and didn't hear what happened on that kick. Did anyone see it? Can you describe what happened? Thanks.
