No, he was not. He was on the sideline in street clothes with crutches. Knee injury. Don't know how serious.

Re: Up Next: Southern Illinois

Ugly, ugly win for UNI. But we just found a way to get it done. This was a game that we definitely lose last year. I'd say that is the #1 positive that you can take out of this game. We just found a way to win the game.

Tirrell played great again today. Thought the receivers let him down a few times again.

SIU pretty much dominated our running game all day long, and they played well on D overall. Our offense and running game is a concern going in to Fargo to play another great defense, with how we struggled today.

Thought our defense played fantastic. Continued to bail out the offense, who gave SIU great field position all day long, and had 3 turnovers.

Excellent job by the defense today. Jewel Hampton was hurting us bad in the first half, but nice job in the second half of keeping him more in check. Rennie did a nice job throwing the ball again, although the stats won't show it due to the drops.

Need to hold on to the ball a lot better as that was ugly today. Receivers struggled early although nice TD catch on the 3rd and 18. That last fumble on the slip screen was terrible as they were draped all over him before he had the ball, not a lot he could of done there.

Thought I heard that he did it on himself in his kitchen as his Master's Thesis/project.

Cant have so many fumbles (probably 1 at the most) next week.

Cant have so many dropped passes for HUGE plays next week.

Re: Up Next: Southern Illinois

That last fumble by uni was no fumble. He was sitting on his butt and then the ball game out. I was sitting just a few rows up and it was right in front of us. I thought the refs were bad both ways today. The waited forever to blow plays dead so i figured there would be some stripping of the ball. Uni should have passed more. Obviously southern wasnt going to let uni beat them on the ground. The passing game was there for the taking all day. Uni needed to pass more i hope next week they take what the defense gives them.

We would pass more, but Coach Farley reads Panthernation and he has learned from you that Rennie cannot throw the ball, as you have told everyone so many times. So, he refrains from doing so as much as possible.

Re: Up Next: Southern Illinois

I made the mistake of swapping tickets with someone, so I wasn't in my usual spot. Which I wouldn't have had a problem with, but I ended up sitting near some drunk idiot uni fan, yelling stupid stuff to the nearby SIU fans, as well as dumb suggestions to Farley.

Ugh, I very much dislike people like that, as they give our fanbase a bad rep.

I thought he was down, but I was on the other side of the field and couldnt really see it. Good to know the refs still dont know what they're doing
