YSU @ SIU

[centennial]

Game at 14-13 in the 3rd with 13:23 left.
Watch on ESPN 3.

[centennial]

YSU ball after pick 6. Both teams look average.

[centennial]

YSU doesn't look as good as advertised. Maybe Pelini isn't that good.

He still has his cat. Maybe he needs to feed his players some Casey's breakfast pizza on Saturdays before gameday?

Some coaches just don't understand what it takes to win in the MVFC.

If he wants a G5 job in a year, he will need to get better.

Yep. Caseys breakfast pizza with the proper amount of bacon.

Ummm.

[TheKingpin28]

I wish they'd have an annual (AGS) MVFC get together where it's beer and breakfast pizza. Would be well worth it

[centennial]

I was wrong YSU 28 SIU 20

[centennial]

3 missed FG and 1 XP missed. At this point I would just go for it on 4th.

We got together once in the Twin Cities. It was a few UNI fans and 1 or 2 Bison.

Tough to pick a location. Where I live is 2 hours from UNI, WIU, and Illinois State.

It would be a matter of who is active and what they are willing to do.

the geographic midpoint of the conference is just west of Muscatine, IA. There are at least 5 Caseys General Stores within 10 miles of that spot.

[centennial]

31-20. I feel bad for SIU, they aren't bad. Comedy of errors, blocked FG turns into a 1st down, which turns in to a FG.

[centennial]

SIU scores will go for 2.

[centennial]

31-28 we have a game ladies and gentlemen

I'd show up. :D

[centennial]

3 and out. SIU can win this.

Edit: Partially blocked. SIU at YSU 47

[centennial]

Big 4 down conversion.

[TheKingpin28]

Well my family has been Iowa fans/boosters since Nile's days and I know I will be there for that game. I could easily head over to Muscatine during that weekend next year. I know Bison fans would come and would "root" for NDSU against the Hawkeyes. It would be a lot of fun and I feel like with enough planning, we could get enough commits

[centennial]

0:47 in the game. 3rd and 2 from the 6.

[JayJ79]

why didn't the clock stop on that play? didn't he step/land out of bounds?

He did, no idea. MVFC refs.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Tied?

[centennial]

Going to OT if they get field goal.
Edit: Tied

[PantherRob82]

So a ton of Casey's Breakfast pizza to tailgate for the NDSU-Iowa game next year?!

I'm serious about this. It would be a blast

[centennial]

4th and 2

[JayJ79]

4th and 2

Farley would elect for the FG

[centennial]

YSU loses. They should have run it. SIU finally wins a close one.

[Kemo]

That's the 2nd atrocious 4th and short call I've seen today...

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Holy crap I can't believe YSU lost again. They really don't want me to come out for the NDSU game....xembarrassedx

[skinny_uncle]

They just ain't used to having the close ones in Carbondale.

[centennial]

That's the 2nd atrocious 4th and short call I've seen today...
YSU's was worst. What were they thinking- roll to the right, hope they find someone? A short throw to the 3 yard line or a run would have been better.

[underdawg]

Hey, we're finally a wiener! Yahoo--win a close one FINALLY

[PantherRob82]

Me too. Unless it's the week we are at EWU or have Montana at home....and it's probably one of those weeks.

[JayJ79]

I think NDSU is at Iowa on 9/17/16, which is the same day that UNI is at EWU.
at least tentatively. things could change between now and then

[BisonFan02]

SIU with their offense is going to give all NDSU can handle next week.....

[centennial]

They feel like our Kryptonite

We will do our best, sir.

[underdawg]

Let's just put it this way--YSU was leading the nation (91 ypg given up) in pass defense--we had 284 yards and three TDs through the air-- also YSU held SIU to seven points in the first half but the Salukis ended up scoring 31 in the second half/OT. I don't know what that means but it certainly means something.

[penguinpower]

YSU is done.

here was a pick6 in there too of all the points scored

I pointed this out a couple weeks ago

YSUs passing defense number was completely skewed and not inductive of their actual skill level

This. Great pass defense stats can be the result of lousy run defense stats.

[penguinpower]

Keep in mind SIU has one of the best offenses in the FCS a.d they were held to about half their earned point total on offense. The turnovers, and especially the pick 6 were impactful on those numbers. YSU held SIU out of the endzone on 7 drives and YSU's special teams were just horrible with 19 yard punts and kick-offs out of bounds and an offense that basically telegraphed everything. YSU's offense was just horrible. Sometimes offense is the best defense and YSU's offense put the defense in bad spots all night with poor drives and turnovers. The stat line is not that straight forward.

[Professor Chaos]

You gotta give Pelini credit. He's gettin' **** done in October that Wolford usually couldn't get done until November.

[underdawg]

This is very strange--when we beat nationally ranked teams they go down in ratings/ when we lose to un-ranked teams they get put into the top twenty---looks like we've become the measuring stick--ha-ha

[ysubigred]

Great game SIU!! You all wanted it worse that YSU. Rule of thumb playing YSU, don't let up because YSU will xrolleyesx

This does worry me with our final four opponents all being defense heavy.

Did YSU win TOP. They like that stat in Youngstown. If they win TOP, then the game was within reach.xpeacex

Just busting your chops penguinpower. You guys earned my respect in the Ice Castle. Bo just has to teach the boys of Youngstown how to close out the game. They almost did against ISUr, so don't take it serious.

Patience!

Well, to be fair, YSU probably doesn't have a player that can seal the deal quite like your boy Coprich can. ;)
