SDSU by a boat load.

[Drblankstare]

As much was I love the fact that SDSU absolutely ****s the bed in the playoffs, I really don’t seeing them losing this game. SDSU is the most complete team in the playoffs.

I want to agree, but playing a rematch against a team you beat 44-3 probably won’t help SDSU’s focus this week. Jacks win but I think it’ll be a struggle for them.

The Saints destroyed Tampa Bay twice in the regular season, then the playoffs happened. SDSU isn’t 44-3 better than how SIU playing right now.

SIU has Tom Brady?

Give me the team with a runningback and a great defense.

Jacks by 90.

That wasn’t my point, but since you brought it up, Brady played in all three games. Each game takes on a life of its own. I expect a competitive rematch.

It should be a walkover, with your starters getting plenty of rest

SDSU should absolutely win without much struggle, however this is SDSU and they struggle at this sort of thing. Still picking them though.

They already beat us like a kodo drum at our place and we're the last team in. The NC is theirs to lose.

Our head coach yells “Holy nutmeg” at the players when he is frustrated. There is no need to be intimidated.

[RabidRabbit]

Our best chance is if it turns into a track meet like with SELATrue dat. While Dawgs are very offensive, Rabbits are very defensive. Imho, Jacks will get more turnovers, and control of LOS from both sides. It will be closer than in Carbondale, but Jacks prevail.

Stone Labanowitz. His name sounds like a Wall Street firm.




I call it the Joe Montana factor: he wants the ball when the game is on the line and big plays need to be made. He isn't going anywhere past SIU, and he's been everywhere from starter to third string but the little rascal loves to play and the limelight doesn't scare him. I think he's from Florida. I don't know him but in general Nick Hills kids seem to be a good bunch, don't see their names in the paper, and Nick was/is more or less mentored by Jerry Kill - who benched Brandon Jacobs until his attitude changed

The Salukis have a corps of receivers that can make an average QB look good. I just hope Labanowitz throws the ball to the right team this time round. The grin was because he was having fun. This is supposed to be a game.

Strange scheduling. I guess SDSU didn't realize there might be a conflict. They don't usually get this far.

This will be the 4th time in the last 5 playoffs that SDSU will have made it to the quarterfinals or deeper. This would be the first time they'll be in line to host a semifinal but I doubt they're caught completely off guard. I would guess that plenty of schools plan commencement without worrying too much about hosting a potential playoff game... it happens all the time for fall commencement in early December during a normal playoff year.

I'd be pretty surprised if SDSU doesn't figure out a way to move commencement to a different venue so they can host a semifinal if they win on Sunday.... they might piss some people off but more people (with more $$$$) would be pissed off if they turned down the opportunity to host a semi.

[BigGoosie13]

SDSU has already sent out an email to students and staff informing us that Graduation Commencement will find a new outdoor venue if necessary, won't be much drama to next weekend if SDSU wins this week.

It has the potential to be an exciting game, depending on which SIU team shows. Last time we had 3 pics and a fumble that turned into scoring drives of 17, 50, 24, and 4 yards and 24 points, so we need to change that - which we didn't do against Weber, spotting them two TDs before deciding to play football.

Prior to last Saturday, Holy Cross was undefeated in all sports in NCAA playoff games held in the Dakotas against the #1 team in the country. But you guys turned that precedent on its head.

Game 2 vs SIU will be a lot closer than Game 1 but I have the Jacks advancing.

SDSU is a well-rounded, fundamentally sound team but I don't see them as an completely overpowering team. Despite the lopsided score and stat sheet, Holy Cross was by no means completely dominated last weekend. You guys have a great team just not at the level of some of the NDSU and JMU teams we've seen in recent years.

Well, in this year I don't think you can compare power levels as no one is really in post season form due to the limited season. It's obvious that NDSU and James Madison don't have the same type of teams either. I'm not sure how one defines dominated, but total yards of 439 to 198 isn't exactly close. And lets be real, you didn't face our offense as we would run it against most playoff caliber teams. Gronowski has been a major weapon on the ground for us all year and he had 2 carries against HC, and one of those was a scramble on a pass play with good coverage. Overall the offensive game plan appeared to be designed to 1) be vanilla and 2) make sure Gronowski didn't get injured.

On the flip side, sat next to a group of HC guys and had a great time talking with them. They were very complimentary of the facilities and loved the Daktronics scoreboard. They were hoping HC was scoring one similar from Dak, but I don't think they had high expectations of that...

There was no reason for Gronowski to run outside against us. You guys stuck to your comparative advantage against a Patriot League team which was the rely on your O-Line and two all-conference tailbacks. The Janke twins made the plays that they needed to when called upon. But to our credit, we forced you guys to punt 5 times. And despite the difference in yardage you pointed out, there was never a series where you didn't think our D at least had a shot to get your offense off the field. We were actually more "overmatched" from an overall athletic standpoint last year against Monmouth than we were Saturday. And that's more of a feather in the cap to Holy Cross than it is a slight to #1 SDSU this year.

Will be rooting for you guys to go all the way! Was great meeting a number of loyal Jacks' fans who have been there through thick and thin since the DII days. I admire the program you guys have developed. While overshadowed by your neighbors to the North, you guys have qualified for the postseason 9 straight times now (saw the engravings in your end zone) which out of the meat grinder Missouri Valley is a real accomplishment.

The Rabbits and the Bison jumped to D1 together as they needed each other in order to find a conference to join. We could not get any other NCC teams to join us at that time. They are our best and biggest rival. IMHO Bison would not be the team they are with out SDSU next door. SDSU would not be the team they are with out the Bison next door.

I always viewed NDSU and SDSU as the head-and-shoulder leaders among the Dakota schools, as you guys were the first 2 to move up together.

IMO, if NDSU and SDSU could find a way to get around in-state politics, they would be great additions to the Missouri Valley Conference as all-sports members.

Interesting factoid. But NDSU vs SHSU is the most marketable matchup they could hope for in the Quarter Finals to broadcast on the ESPN flagship channel - except for NDSU vs JMU which is still a possibility for the Championship.

If NDSU and JMU meet it'll be next week in the semis... it just so happens that there's an ABC time slot for one of the semis. I'd say JMU/NDSU would be a lock for that TV slot if that's the semifinal matchup.

That may turn out to be the case but not necessarily because SIU traveled first round and Delaware hosted. Of course, SIU may not have even bid considering they weren't even sure they would get in. But they could have but were outbid by Weber and Delaware outbid Sacred Heart.

Beyond lucky. Dodging bullets left and right. Next extra point

Remember when SIU scored on that swing pass but didn't somehow? [emoji848]

For sure they’ll call targeting here. Amazing clean hit, but will be rewarded for the magician

No it's targeting. Helmet right to the chin will get called every time.

Edit: wow, no targeting. Jacks fortunate there

It was targeting. Lowered the helmet.

I knew these guys would choke. You can’t leave that many points on the table and WTF is with this play calling. JFC

Wrong. SIU still have a good chance to win.

One time, SDSU was up 31 points on Montana with 8 min left in the 4th and lost. That was 2008.

Yeah, should have been a TD 4 plays before that apparently....

[POD Knows]

That is a mating call at SDSU. Their alpha males are the ones with the smelliest feet.

[lionsrking2]

Even if Salukis score they wont get ball back

[mmiller_34]

Look how quickly the Salukis back in it!

They should have. Would have been a make up call for the previous ****ups in the half. xlolx

[Chalupa Batman]

Well done Jacks. A lot of SDSU teams wouldn't have found a way to come back, should give them a TON of confidence going forward.

[skinny_uncle]

Go represent the Valley, Bunnies.

[atthewbon]

Great Game! Hopefully the comeback bring some momentum into next week. Props to SIU and Stone Labanowitz, he’s dangerous.

[Laker]

Super exciting ball game. Easily could have gone the other way. SIU was really tough.

I don't think that the officials had nearly as good a game as either team.

Same spot on the field I think - wonder if it was the same guy. That was the turning point given the fubar that followed, which doesn't mean the Jacks wouldn't have won anyway, and the better team is moving on to the semis. Best of luck to the Jacks and lets keep the NC in the MVFC where it belongs.

Were they MVFC refs, since both teams are in the same league?

Thanks. It's my cross to bear.

I'm a Twins fan and a Vikings fan so I've had lots of practice.

[Hammerhead]

Other than the Lynx, all of the pro sports in Minnesota seem to struggle. It's nice for me to have a Bison win most weekends to offset the disappointment with the Vikings on Sundays.
