[skinny_uncle]

I agree. I hope the Bison fans are not reading this thread.
:D

[unigriff]

Talk about a ball hog....in the Florida-Arkansas game (which Ark leasd 20-13) Tebow has 20 rushes for 38 yds. Good lord.

[UNI Pike]

UNI gets the ball for the 2nd half

[unigriff]

Well Pikey...you are here!

[UNI Pike]

MO ST beats WIU 17-16

[UNI Pike]

I am "working" - at least trying to - the game is to close to do much else other than yell at my computer

[unigriff]

2nd half about to start!!!! 10-6 UNI leads. Time for some fireworks!

[unigriff]

Ive had chills since they came out of the garage!

[unigriff]

Hey a call that is legit....personal foul after the 40yd kickoff return...:) UNI starts in SIU territory to start the 2nd half!

[unigriff]

Panthers going for it on 4th and 2 from the saluki 37.

[unigriff]

Overthrows the TE in the endzone...SIU takes over on downs. 3rd squandered opportunity today.

[unigriff]

Kick good. 9:19 left in the 3rd...SIU 13 UNI 10

[89 Panther]

Why would we throw to the endzone 2x with two yards to go? 1x I understand but on 4th down it was wasteful! Solomon needs to keep drives going.

[unigriff]

Umass beat UNH as well just a bit ago 23-17.

[unigriff]

we've had 3 drives starting with great field position and have come away with nothing. Bad playcalls so far this half.

[skinny_uncle]

Finally a TD for the Dawgs. Those have been hard to come by for both teams today. Two high powered offenses are really being frustrated so far.

[unigriff]

UNI starts their drive on the 28.

[unigriff]

Grace still has some nerves flowing too i think. He's not been great today.

[appstate38]

Any TV or internet on this one?

[unigriff]

4th and 5 on the SIU 35...UNI going for it.

[unigriff]

UNI switches and UNI to punt

[unigriff]

OMG...instead of taking a delay of game penalty to help the punting cause, UNI (like usual in its dumbness) calls timeout. 4th and 5.

Our punter is a freshman, but he was an all state QB in high school and played all his home games in the UNI-Dome...I could see a fake punt maybe;)

[unigriff]

beautiful punt!!!! Downed at the 4!!!

[unigriff]

Need another big defensive stop again!

[CDT_Wilson]

There have been some terrible spots by the officials.

[soccerguy315]

[unigriff]

[unigriff]

[skinny_uncle]

Karim finally gets into the end zone. Maybe his shortest TD run of the year.

[unigriff]

UNI takes over on their own 32

[unigriff]

SIU interception but derailed by a pass interference call. UNI first down at the UNI 47.

3rd and 6 at the Saluki 49. 4 minutes to go

[unigriff]

incomplete pass. 4th down and 6 3:59 to go. UNI 1 timeout left. UNI going for it.

2nd and 9 SIU

[siuham]

This has been a pretty damn good football game. Wow.

[unigriff]

SIU goes deep but incomplete pass. stops the clock 3rd and 9

[unigriff]

Dieker runs up the middle for 2. 4th down and 7, UNI calls final timeout.

[unigriff]

PAT makes it 27-13 2:48 to go

[seattlespider]

Wow.

[siuham]

<----

this guy

giddy

[unigriff]

Whole second half I had a bad feeling. Grace kept going for the bomb and not just doing what they did in the first half. Very disappointing. Props to SIU. They came to play and played well. The defense played well for UNI in the 2nd half but just too lil too late. 1 for 6 when we started at the UNI 40 or better....6 times we started at the 40 or better! and we only get 3 pts out of it. That sucks

[SoCalAg]

ouch....thought UNI was gonna pull this one out

[CDT_Wilson]

Gonna lose on two stupid plays. Oh well, lost two last year and look how well the playoffs went.

[unigriff]

UNI ball at the 31 of UNI. No timeouts for UNI.

[unigriff]

SIU offsides on the kickoff (SIU was already kicking off at their own 15...now at their own 10).

[mtgrizfan4life]

score?

[siuham]

27-13 SIU. 2:39 left.

[unigriff]

UNI gets the ball in SIU territory on the kickoff to the 37, but UNI has an illegal block in the back and now UNI has it at the UNI 45. 2:40 to go

[SIUallDay]

score?

27-13 SIU with 2:39 left in the 4th

[mtgrizfan4life]

thanks

[unigriff]

The game is/has been a lot closer than the score indicates.

[unigriff]

UNI big pass from their own 45 down to the SIU 6. and out of bounds!!!!

[unigriff]

Eyman wide open, overthrown. 3rd and goal from the 3 1:53 to go

[unigriff]

TOUCHDOWN UNI!!! 27-20 1:50 to go.

[skinny_uncle]

The game is/has been a lot closer than the score indicates.

It always is.

[Dblue]

Gonna lose on two stupid plays. Oh well, lost two last year and look how well the playoffs went.

You guys won it all last year?!? xsmiley_wix

[unigriff]

Onside kick coming.

[unigriff]

SIU won 27-24 on a field goal at the buzzer last year

[unigriff]

oooo UNI almost got the onside kick...ball was loose...scramble for the ball SIU ends up with it.

[unigriff]

victory formation for SIU

[unigriff]

SIU will win 27-20 to break the UNI-Dome curse :)

[unigriff]

#5 SIU 27
#2 UNI 20
FINAL

[paward]

Boy this weeks poll is going to require a lot of work.

[CDT_Wilson]

You guys won last year?!? xsmiley_wix

closer then you

[siuham]

This. Is. Football.

[skinny_uncle]

Heckuva game, but I expected no less.
xnodx

[unigriff]

on the bright side. Karim other than his one run in the 2nd half and his big 48 yd catch to end the first half was really a no factor in the 2nd half. He had a one millimeter TD run to put SIU up 20-13 but really was held at bay in the 2nd half. Good job by the UNI D to adjust.

[SIUallDay]

[UNI Pike]

SIU earns the win, made fewer mistakes. Congrats.

[UNIFanSince1983]

Great game by the Salukis. They are a very very good team. Pat Grace didn't have his best game, but gotta give credit to the defense of the Salukis.

I certainly don't want to play that team again. Deji Karim was just as advertised. He is an amazing player, and if the Walter Payton is supposed to go to the best player in FCS I have a hard time believing there is a better player.

Congrats. Good luck the rest of the way! (Well kinda I actually hope you lose so we could still win the conference xsmiley_wix)

[Gil Dobie]

Congrats SIU xthumbsupx

Sounded like a great game in a packed UNI Dome xthumbsupx

[Dblue]

closer then you

I will not reply again until you to learn to spell correctly.

Go UNI, I hope Devlin can make a visit to the dome this year.

Good game Dawgs and Panthers.

Karim is more like Mr. Payton than all those QBs that usually get the award. That's just my personal beef with how that award is handled.
Right now I just wanna Celebrate! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZsppOw2Mxk)

[MSUBear42]

Congrats on the win, SIU! See you in 4 weeks

[01pantherfan]

Good game by SIU , UNI just keeps shooting itself in the foot, had way to many chances with great field position, made way to many stupid mistakes to win but nothing against SIU they out played UNI and looked closer to a number 2 team then UNI did by far

[Ivytalk]

Congrats, SIU! Cap'n Cat, ring up the white flag!:p

[igo4uni]

Just got back from the fabulous UNI-Dome. Tough loss, but give SIU credit....it's tough to come into the Dome and get a win and they did it. Their RB was tough and a very impressive runner.

Good game.

[Houndawg]

The pisser, from a Saluki point of view, anyway, is that there is is pretty good chance that we'll play again. As I mentioned in another thread, this could be the year both teams win on the road.

[skinny_uncle]

His name is Deji Karim. Remember it well.

[Bison_Kent]

Great Game!!

Here are some photos from it.

Yeah you can't let a punt touch you inside your own 10 yard line. And running a halfback pass on the 10 yard line wasn't the best call, and DP should have just tucked it and gotten as many yards as he could instead of throwing it.

That one stings a little, but gotta give credit to SIU for out playing UNI tonight. Dale Lennon just has Mark Farley's number. It helps he has good players executing his game plans too.

[igo4uni]

It helps he has good players executing his game plans too.

Funny how that works.xcoolx

[strike00]

Great game Salukis. A few of the dumbest plays I have seen in awhile by a few Panther players tonight. On a positive for that, I'm sure those decisions will never be made by those players again.

I think the biggest part of the game, other than the two turnovers deep in Panther territory, was the lack of execution by UNI/ great defensive effort by the salukis inside the 10.

These two teams could very easily meet in the second round of the playoffs and it could go either way.

I'm actually not that upset about this game. I still really like this UNI team.

[Griz0383]

Awesome pic’s from the sideline! I would love to watch a game in the UNI Dome and would pay much money to see it from the sidelines! That wish is on my FCS bucket list. Tough loss UNI, and congrats to SIU. This Griz fan hopes to avoid both UNI and SIU in the playoffs! (If the Griz gets in) If Montana is sent packing to play UNI then I will drive down and it would be awesome to party with the UNI fans (if they will have me). I hope someone would show me what makes UNI special on game day! I was in Missoula for the Griz vs. EWU! EWU is awesome and they have the best running back I have seen in a long time! I hope EWU's appeal to the NCAA is approve so they are allowed to participate in the playoffs. They will do some damage if they get in!

[Saluki_man]

Wow, what a great game.

First win in the Dome since 1983. I am hoping this season ends the same way that one did. :D

[VT Wildcat Fan53]

Congratulations to the Salukis. Wow! Signature win!

[4N6]

Congrats to Southern Illinois. I said it last week, and I'll say it again. This is turning into one GREAT rivalry. I chatted w/a few Southern fans at the Dome. So sorry I won't be able to remember names. Anyway, hope the Saluki fans had or will have a great trip back.

I'm not going to make excuses for the loss. Rather, I'll elect to admit that the Saluki's kicked some Panther ass yesterday. A well deserved win.

[Houndawg]

I'm not going to make excuses for the loss. Rather, I'll elect to admit that the Saluki's kicked some Panther ass yesterday. A well deserved win.

xthumbsupx Happens to us all sooner or later. Some of your fans are acting like the lost to Illinois State or something, hell, you may get a rematch this year.

[PantherRob82]

xthumbsupx Happens to us all sooner or later. Some of your fans are acting like the lost to Illinois State or something, hell, you may get a rematch this year.

Not if you guys lose in the first round again. ;)

Congrats on the win. Karim looked good. Great punting.

[Houndawg]

Congrats on the win. Karim looked good. Great punting.

True dat. I noticed that the kick off coverage that cost us the unh game wasn't greatly improved.

[Native]

To Houndawg and Skinny Uncle and all the Saluki fans:

Congratulations for a fantastic signature win. xthumbsupx

[Big Al]

There are two ways to beat an opponent:

1. Dominate them, beat them down and take them apart.
2. Hang tough, don't give up and capitalize on your opponent's mistakes.

SIU went #2, so they deserve respect for a quality win.

Boy, am I glad I was at a wedding and not watching that game! I woulda been a wreck.

#2 kind of implies to me an overmatched opponent playing smart and hanging with a better team. It wasn't like that at all.


Besides, you don't want to enter the playoffs undefeated. At the end of the season it's entirely possible that UNI will look back and think that the loss to SIU was the turning point.

[Big Al]

No, I wouldn't call SIU overmatched at all. However, this series has never been about #1 -- when you've got two well-matched teams like UNI & SIU it isn't about domination, it's about hanging tough and being prepared to capitalize when your opponent trips up. That is how this game always is.

I see what you mean.xthumbsupx

How was the wedding?

[DOME]

I'll agree that this may be a turning point. They may have gotten kind of soft/sloppy with the success in the second through fifth games.

Hopefully we can clean up some of the mistakes, especially on special teams.

High Five dogs!

I fon't think anyone is going to dominate the Panthers this year. Winning there was enough.
xthumbsupx

How was the wedding?

Better than the game.

[RabidRabbit]

I fon't think anyone is going to dominate the Panthers this year. Winning there was enough.
xthumbsupx

Thanks Dawgs! xmadx Now Jacks get the PO'ed kitties. xsmhx

Congrats Dawgs for winning a tough game. Jacks hope that we can keep that losing feeling going for the Panthers. xwhistlex

[UNIFanSince1983]

The loss at SIU last year was the turning point on the season. Lets see if it can happen again. I hope the guys are pissed about losing a game at home, where they made some mistakes that should normally be avoided.

Wreck the Rabbits Hobo Day boys!!

[Big Al]

Hobo Week in Brookings? Bah. Everyone knows the real Hobo Days are held in Britt, IA in August. Anything else is just a poor imitation.
