Other Games of Interest - 10/2

[panther-state]

Haven't seen one of these threads yet this season but figured we'd follow some of the other interesting games in FCS and MVFC:

#16 Missouri St wins big at Ill. St. 41-20

#7 Southern Ill is already up 21-0 on Western Ill with 9 mins left in the 2nd Qtr.

#11 North Dakota was able to hold off the #5 Bizon for nearly 3 qtrs but are trailing 16-7 with 1:13 left in the game. Have to say that the decision by UND to go for it on 4th and short from their own 25-30 yd line in the 3rd was questionable at best. They failed, gave momentum back to NDSU and while they held them to a FG it was a consequential call nonetheless that probably was ill-advised.

South Dakota currently up 31-10 on Ind. St with 7 mins remaining.

#3 South Dakota St. will play Dixie St. later today in what feels like their 2nd or 3rd "extended scrimmage" game of the year. Jacks staying very fresh for the MVFC season.


And in non-MVFC news:

#1 Sam Houston St is down 10-0 to Stephen F Austin in the 2nd qtr

#2 James Madison currently losing to New Hampshire 21-17 with just under 13 mins left

#14 E Tenn St is down 21-20 to 1-3 Wofford at the end of 3 qtrs

St. Thomas is tied with San Diego at 24

Drake defeated Butler in an absolute barn-burner, 6-3...I'm guessing both fans bases spent some time on their phones looking up how soon basketball starts.

Sam Houston pulled it out by 1, E Tenn pulled it out by 6, James Madison pulled it out by 2, Southern Illinois then blew their lead, went to overtime, and won by 1. Very unsatisfying if you want the underdogs to win (and/or for us to move up).

well one of those was at Indiana State, and they don't really have any control over who they play in conference. And another was against an FBS opponent in Colorado State.

St Thomas buried Butler last week, 36-0.

Was referring Lindenwood, but as far as FBS opponents and conference openers go, CSU and ISUb make for ideal matchups compared to some of the gauntlets we've scheduled for ourselves in the past.

Wasn't criticizing SDSU so much as pointing out that they should be fresh for the MVFC season. Considering they have a new transfer QB it's been a great situation for them
