IT'S DAKOTA DAY! Western Illionis Visits The Danger Dome

[SD4ever]

Well, the Redbirds mangaged to escape with their lives last week. Now let's see how WI makes out. I doubt it will be very well.

USD 42 WI 13

Go South Dakota! Go Coyotes! Forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111

USD Truly, The Princeton of The Prairiexlolx

[SD4ever]

Leathernecks go 3 and out and then punt badly.

SD starts @ the WI45.

[SD4ever]

Yotes complete a pass to the 9 but it is called back on question.

49 yarder makes it 3 to zip SD.

Go Coyotes! LOL!

[SD4ever]

Then 'necks" fumble the kick off but recover @ their 11.

[SD4ever]

WI gets their first 1st down with a completion to the 29.

Defense Yotes! Defense!!!!!!!!!!

[SD4ever]

Big gain to the 45 by their bruiser back. Whoa? 32 yard gain.

[mmiller_34]

Whats the deal with Mick Garry being 20 minutes late on his Live Chat? Also, why is there no gamecast?

[SD4ever]

USD holds @ their 35. WI punts to the Coyote 10. 6:06 left in Q1.

90 yards of total offense and a TD coming up for SD.

Go Yotes!

[SD4ever]

Whats the deal with Mick Garry being 20 minutes late on his Live Chat? Also, why is there no gamecast?

I have no idea about Garry. It's on CoyoteVision.

[SD4ever]

Marcus Simms has big gain to the SD48. 52 yards to go.

Go SD!

[mmiller_34]

I have no idea about Garry. It's on CoyoteVision.

Is coyote vision free? Also, Garry isn't even doing anything in his chat, now that he is live.

[SD4ever]

SD fumbles at their 48. 'necks' have it.

Crap!

[SD4ever]

Is coyote vision free? Also, Garry isn't even doing anything in his chat, now that he is live.

$9.95 for a month. He is probably not doing his chat because of me. Ha Ha

[SD4ever]

WI gets a 3rd down pass to the SD 30.

Defense!

[slostang]

$9.95 for a month. He is probably not doing his chat because of me. Ha Ha

Hey Yote fans Big Sky TV is free. One more reason you should have come west. :)

[mmiller_34]

$9.95 for a month. He is probably not doing his chat because of me. Ha Ha

Argus needs someone else besides Garry to be the USD beatwriter. The difference between TV and Mick is night and day.

[SD4ever]

WI goes for it on 4th and 1. Big gain to the SD 4. End of Q1. USD 3 WI 0 but threatening.

Yotes made a lot of mistakes. Should really be up by 7 or 10.

Let's GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SD4ever]

My mistake. WI at the 8.

[SD4ever]

Time out WI.

3rd and goal from the 8.

DEFENSE! DEFENSE!

[SD4ever]

4th and goal from the 4 as the Yote "D" holds. FG coming up

It's good from the 20.

A WIN for the Coyotes.

[SD4ever]

Argus needs someone else besides Garry to be the USD beatwriter. The difference between TV and Mick is night and day.

Not really a big surprise. The Argus favors sdsc all the time.

[SD4ever]

Hey Yote fans Big Sky TV is free. One more reason you should have come west. :)

The day will come that und regrets it.

[SD4ever]

USD starts at their 20 after a Simms return out of the end zone.

[mmiller_34]

Not really a big surprise. The Argus favors sdsc all the time.

I sure seems like that way, maybe because Garry's coverage is bare minimum.

[SD4ever]

WI holds at the SD 37. Hugh punt to the 'neck' 12.

Let's go Defense again!

[mmiller_34]

How does Josh Hudson look?

[SD4ever]

TO WI. They have a 3rd and 11 from their 24. About 9 mins. left to the half.

Big "D" now Yotes!

[SD4ever]

Pass incomplete. WI punts

Great punt. USD starts @ their 32. The ball left the kicker's foot @ the 7. 62 yards in the air.

Come on Yotes!

[SD4ever]

USD goes 3 and out. WI now at their 30.

Quite the defensive game so far.

[SD4ever]

"necks' running game is testing the Yotes so far. WI @ the SD 41 but big sack by SD sets them back.

Defense!

[SD4ever]

TO WI. 3rd and 20 coming up from the 50.

[Jacked_Rabbit]

The "Danger Dome"?!? Are you serious? hahahaha

I REALLY hope lowly WIU wins this game. That would make me laugh.

[SD4ever]

Another sack to the 43. WI punts to the SD 30. Getting late in the half. SD has all 3 TO's.

[SD4ever]

SD gets a 1st down at the WI 49.

VanderMaten runs it to the 14.

Simms to the 8.

TD Simms with 23 ticks left.

10 to 3 USD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SD4ever]

Great clock management by the Yotes. They did not have to use a time out.

WI won't have much time

DEFENSE!

[SD4ever]

No gain for WI and it is halftime.

SD 10 WI 3

[SD4ever]

How does Josh Hudson look?

Don't know who he is. I don't really pay attention to their player's names. Their 'backs' look pretty good though on occasion. The Yote "D" is holding them pretty well.

[SD4ever]

The "Danger Dome"?!? Are you serious? hahahaha

I REALLY hope lowly WIU wins this game. That would make me laugh.

The 'jackies' will be finding out all about it next season.

[SD4ever]

I have to say that the Yote mistakes are getting a little old. It is game #5 right?

Come on!

Let's go Coyotes right now!

[Jacked_Rabbit]

The 'jackies' will be finding out all about it next season.

Ha! Good one.

[SD4ever]

Ha! Good one.

I figured you would get a kick out of that. You might not be too happy with this year's result either. We'll know soon enough.

[SD4ever]

I hope the Yotes get 'chewed out' good by the coaches. Too many mistakes. This game should be 17 or 24 to zip Coyotes.

I should be right 'on' for my prediction at this point.

Come on!

[SD4ever]

SD starts @ their 25.

Holding against the Yotes on a 2nd and 1.

Here we go again.

[SD4ever]

Thanks to a 'mistake' SD has to punt and then they get it blocked.

WI deep in USD territory at the 22.

Need "D" again.

[SD4ever]

On a 3rd and 13 "necks' get a 25 yard TD pass.

Crap!

10 to 10. 11:42 left.

[SD4ever]

Well, that's what happens when you make two mistakes on one possession and then get beat over the top.

Let's go Coyotes! Let's get going here!

[SD4ever]

SD has to punt again. WI starts at their own 25.

This game is turning out to be way too much of a struggle.

It is D-Day for pete's sake!

I'm getting upset!

[SD4ever]

The very good D-Day crowd is pretty quiet.

[SD4ever]

Yotes get an 'int' and return it to the WI 11. A block in the back sends it back to the WI 49.

Let's go now dang it!

[SD4ever]

Yotes going on 4th and 1 @ the 41. TO WI.

We need to get this 1st down.

Go Yotes!

[SD4ever]

Yotes take an 11 yard loss and WI takes over. No confidence in the offensive line on that one. You got to be kidding me!

[SD4ever]

3rd and 8 coming up from the Yote 35 for WI.

Hold 'em. Hold 'em.

[SD4ever]

"That" they do. WI punts into the end zone. SD starts @ their 20..

3:58 left in Q3.

Come on offense, come on!

[SD4ever]

Interception on the first play and 'necks' have it again at the USD 38.

You are not serious.

[SD4ever]

Blown coverage by the Yotes and it is 1st and goal from the 1.

Easy run by WI and it is going to be 17 to 10 Leathernecks.

This is very upsetting now!

[SD4ever]

Well, this is not making for a very good D-Day at this point.

Yotes don't seem to be with it right now.

[SD4ever]

55 yard return for the Yotes.

WI 41 yard line.

[SD4ever]

SD loses yardage on D1, get it back on D2

41 yarder to Williams on D3 for the TD.

17 to 17

That was quick!

[SD4ever]

Well, that ought to get the crowd back into the game.

Let's go Coyotes! Let's go!

[SD4ever]

PF on D1. 15 yard penalty.

WI @ their 16.

Incomplete on D1 replay. Incomplete on D2. 3rd and 25.

Defense!

[SD4ever]

The "D" holds again. WI punts to the Yote 21.

36 ticks left.

[SD4ever]

VanderMaten gets a good run to the SD 41.

Powell makes a catch at mid-field as Q3 comes to an end.

All tied up folks, all tied up.

[SD4ever]

Terry drops a pass @ the 25.

Probably should have had it.

Crap!

[SD4ever]

SD has to punt again.

'necks' start @ their 10.

Lot's of defense in this game. Lot's of mistakes too by the Yotes.

Terry catches that pass and who knows. It looked like he should have had it.

[SD4ever]

SD holds on a 3rd and 4.

WI punts to the SD 21.

11:29 to go. Still all tied up.

[SD4ever]

SD gets a 1st down @ the 35 with a 3rd down pass.

Gotta keep moving it now!

[SD4ever]

Yotes can't convert and punt it away.

WI now from their own 20.

8:56 left.

Whose defense will give it up?

[SD4ever]

2 yds. on D1.

Razz a ma tazz play for a TD.

24 to 17 WI.

The Yotes got caught with their pants down on that one.

CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SD4ever]

Well, this is now very disturbing.

Coyotes need to come back and get this tied up with this possession for sure.

[Jacked_Rabbit]

Wow, this would be a tough loss for USD. Missouri St. vs USD for the Battle of the Cellar Dwellers in the MVFC.

[SD4ever]

JVM gets a 1st down at the 34.

He runs pretty well.

Come on!

[SD4ever]

Pass is over thrown to Powell on D3 and the Yotes punt again.

5:33 left.

Really need defense now.

[SD4ever]

2 running 1st downs for WI in a row.

Now the Yotes really need a stop.

[SD4ever]

3rd and short coming up with 3:48 left. TO Coyotes.

Gotta have the stop!

[SD4ever]

Big gain and another 1st down.

Yotes are getting it run down their throats right now.

3:00 left and not looking good.

[SD4ever]

3rd and 10 coming up. Another TO for SD.

Yotes very desperate now.

This is very disturbing to say the least.

[mmiller_34]

Yikes. I thought USD would get this win.

[SD4ever]

Yotes hold on 3rd and 15.

WI to punt.

2:22 left.

[SD4ever]

Yotes start @ the 20.

80 big ones to go.

Go Coyotes, Go!

[bisonguy]

score?

[mmiller_34]

score?

Yotes down by a TD 24-17

[SD4ever]

Long incompletion on D1. Bad screen pass on D2. Short gain on D3. JVM fumble on D4.

Victory formation for The Leathernecks who deserved it more than the Yotes.

Congratulations to Western Illinois University.

[Da Coach]

No Danger in that dome - Looks like Illinois Days there today.

[Jacked_Rabbit]

... And USD lays an egg. Shocker...

[SD4ever]

Wow, this would be a tough loss for USD. Missouri St. vs USD for the Battle of the Cellar Dwellers in the MVFC.

Real funny but then what would I expect from a jack fan.

Be sure to have your fun now. I would be doing the same thing.

Things will turn around and The Coyotes will have their day.

And rest assured, SD4ever will have his day too.

Go South Dakota! Go Coyotes! Forever!!!!!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, I agree, you will eventually have your day in the sun. I can just assure you that it won't be on November 17th of this year. xnodx

[SD4ever]

... And USD lays an egg. Shocker...

Like I said jack fans, have your fun. The One and Only can handle anything you can throw out there.

Oh by the way, this season is not over.

Plenty of time for a young Coyote team to improve before November 17th on your frozen cow pasture.

sdsc will be expected to win. You better hope you do.

[SD4ever]

Well, I guess I learned something about the MVFC today. It's a pretty tough conference. und will have it easier in the small sky.

Please keep in mind that this season is basically a 'building' one for the very young Yotes with a new coach. Everything this year is pointed toward 13 and 14. USD will probably take it's share of lumps but in the long run it will be worth it.

But I suppose none of your teams have ever been through that.

Go SOUTH DAKOTA!

[Kegerator]

I checked the scoreboards and was sorely disappointed over the Bison winning, but thankfully the Yotes got whacked in their own tent, which makes it a fine Saturday after all.

I really hope it didn't take you until today to realize the MVFC is a tough conference... SIU shut Illinois St. out. Missouri St. gave Indiana St. all they could handle, just as they did to us last week. Tought from top to bottom, including USD.

Yea, I know it is. I just misstated myself a little bit. Thanks for including USD. I State had their hands full last week and so will some other teams.

It will be interesting to see which game the jackies manage to choke off this season. It will happen you know and I will be watching.

Were you completely oblivious to the differences between the Great West and the MVFC?

BTW, one of those teams going through a rebuilding stage is.. Western Illinois.

[darell1976]

For a minute I was like what is WIU doing in Fargo today? The thread does say Danger Dome. Its going to be a long year for the Yotes. Lots of rebuilding to do under Glenn.

[ST_Lawson]

Were you completely oblivious to the differences between the Great West and the MVFC?

BTW, one of those teams going through a rebuilding stage is.. Western Illinois.

Yea, last year and this are are about as "rebuilding" as it gets for us. That defense that got a few turnovers and key plays, VERY young defense learning a brand new scheme this year. Should get even better over the next couple of years.

[Jacked_Rabbit]

I checked the scoreboards and was sorely disappointed over the Bison winning, but thankfully the Yotes got whacked in their own tent, which makes it a fine Saturday after all.

Welcome to AGS, Kegerator. Good to have ya - and nice name. Go Rabbits!

You can't really be this dilusional can you? Holy ****ing ****!

This was just WIU'S SECOND D1 SCHOLARSHIP WIN SINCE THE END OF THE 2010 SEASON!

WIU isn't good (no offense to the WIU fans here).

USD will be lucky to beat MSU. I don't see USD getting an MVFC win this year, and maybe 1 or 2 next year....going to be a VERY long time before USD even sniffs top half of the MVFC - maybe NDSU, UNI, YSU, and IlSU will move on and give you a chance....

I would hate to see what NDSU is going to do to them in Sioux Falls. Outside their "danger dome" and against the #1 team in the land. 60 point victory? Maybe more.

[clenz]

I would hate to see what NDSU is going to do to them in Sioux Falls. Outside their "danger dome" and against the #1 team in the land. 60 point victory? Maybe more.The rest of their games could get very ugly - MSU excluded.

They don't have a bye the rest of the season and their schedule reads
@ MSU
V. NDSU
@ ISU
@ YSU
V UNI
@ SDSU

NDSU, Indiana St, YSU, UNI, and SDSU are all top 25 teams at the end of the year I believe. I'd set the average score of those games at something like USD 10 Opp 38

[Jacked_Rabbit]

They will be selling beer at the game, so atleast USD fans will have that going for them. If they drink enough, maybe they won't be able to read the scoreboard by the time it is over.

Missouri State really isn't a bad team. They've now played SIU, SDSU & ILL ST. closely. I fully expect the Bears to beat USD on their home turf.

[clenz]

I do too...I just don't expect it to be as bad as the rest of the games.

[mmiller_34]

I do too...I just don't expect it to be as bad as the rest of the games.

Once Missouri State put in Kierra Harris at QB instead of Glaser, they had a pretty big burst on offense against Indiana State today and actually took the lead... then Missouri State's defense stopped playing.

[Jacked_Rabbit]

I do too...I just don't expect it to be as bad as the rest of the games.

Couldn't agree more. I went back and reread your post and it is the SPOT ON truth. Amen!

[Laker]

4ever,

"You might want to keep in mind that the Yote 2nd and 3rd stringers would probably wipe out any team in the NSIC at this point.

Enjoy your little game losing to USF."

You may have missed a final score. Winona State 10, Sioux Falls 9. Heck of a game. Are you still bringing your third string over to womp on the NSIC teams like you said or are they taking exams next week?

[mmiller_34]

Of course UND will have it easier in the BSC. UND is a better team than USD. USD would have every bit as tough a time in the BSC though. Hell look waht Montana did to ya and it was loaded with inexperience, had a new coaching staff, and was maybe, maybe a middle of the road BSC team when you played them if not lower.

[Laker]

Lol. That was good.

Oh, that was the actual quote from the youngster on the D2 board. He started out there before migrating over here. He makes a lot of statements like that- I like to remind him. xsmiley_wix

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Well, the Redbirds mangaged to escape with their lives last week. Now let's see how WI makes out. I doubt it will be very well.

USD 42 WI 13

Go South Dakota! Go Coyotes! Forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111

USD Truly, The Princeton of The Prairiexlolx



You actually thought USD was going to win 42-13. WIU is down but they can always run the ball.

USD will go winless in the conference this year and I thought that at the beginning of the season. Next year might be the same.

Look for more Bison fans in SF for that game. Thank you to USD for giving us a 7th home game this year....xlolx

[Ted]

Argue all day about USD/UND. You will never know which is better. USD has an FBS/BCS win and had a much more successful transition. UND has a terrific head coach. Many Nd fans claim he is a better coach than Coach Bohl, sure, but Glenn is better. UND was run out of the Dakotas too, the other three schools circled the wagons and showed them the door.

It might be safe to say your perception is that one team is better but it's not true. They are equally as good.

[UNIFanSince1983]

Why is the NDSU game going to be in Sioux Falls? It's not like that stadium is bigger than the DakotaDome is it or can they fit more because of standing room?

[Laker]

Why is the NDSU game going to be in Sioux Falls? It's not like that stadium is bigger than the DakotaDome is it or can they fit more because of standing room?

Good question. I assume that it will be in Howard Wood, but I don't know why. Someone associated with USD, maybe the Boy Wonder, will chime in.

Promotion for their fans in the SFs area.

[Coyote Fan]

Congradulations to Western Illinois on the win. The Coyotes at this point in time would be lucky to finish at the top of the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference let alone be a competitor in the MVFC. The Coyotes have had all the emenities and advantages of being at home for their first two games in the conference and just lost their most winnable game in the league. 0-8 in the inagural year is certainly not out of the questions if things don't improve. The Yotes haven't even hit the road where in those 4 upcoming games things could get ugly in a hurry. I would supposed that the Yotes might compete with Missouri State but considering the game is a road game I am considering the home team as a 2 touchdown favorite.

MSU and SIU both have better defenses than you would think, given their records.

Coyote Fan, why is your avatar a Big Sky logo? Wrong conference, dude...

And MSU will not be a 2 TD favorite next week, although they may end up winning the game by that much. I'd be shocked if MSU is favored by more than 6.5 or 7.

[ursus arctos horribilis]

This year? I was pretty sure SD4 was talking aobut this year. Joe Glenn is one of my favorite people in the profession. SD4 is trying to be an *** instead of trying to have a discussion so he will probably take a little heat when USD loses. You want to jump in on that action then feel free.

Much more?? USD went 21-22 during their transition. No conference titles.... UND went 23-20 during their transition with 1 conference title. The only thing USD has over UND is a FBS win. Thats it. In fact that 2010 win over Minnesota on Sept. 11th was their last road win. I (as a UND fan) wouldn't call Mussman terrific and he is NOT better than Bohl. Saying Glenn is better...is debateable. How was UND run out of the Dakota's? UND joined an AQ conference for all their sports. USD could have joined them but already commited to the Summit League (which is in very bad shape if Oakland joins the Horizon). Enjoy the long season in the MVFC.

[bisonguy]

Neither UND nor USD has more than 5 DI wins in a season during transition, so I'd call both of their transitions equally mediocre at best.

USD has a FBS win, UND has a conference co-championship. Both are decent single accomplishments, but provide a rather short list of achievements.

I don't see either team making it into the top of their respective conferences without some major rebuilding.

Defense would be #1 on the list for UND thats for sure.

Am I the only one on here who thinks of the show Archer when I see Danger Dome? And it would seem that watching USD play is just as comical.

Archer is a great show, but it's "Danger Zone" not Danger Dome." Get it right Kenny Loggins! xnonono2x

Of course, but the opportunity for a Kenny Loggins reference doesn't come along often enough, so it must be taken advantage of when it presents itself!

Archer- the writers for that are something else!

Thumper- anyone who has a Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday for their picture can't be all bad.
