    Default Illinois St

    Figured we needed a pre-gameday thread for this one. Illinois St comes in at 5-1 (2-1) with their only loss being a head scratcher to Missouri St. They have a dominating win over FBS Colorado St (who aren't that bad - they're 3-4 overall and 2-1 in the Mountain West) under their belt as well.

    Some injury updates for the Bison from Klieman's press conference this afternoon: both Bruce Anderson and Robbie Grimsley sustained hamstring injuries that "weren't as severe as originally expected" (source: Jeff Culhane's twitter) so Klieman says both may play against the Redbirds. He also said Seth Wilson is "not available" and that Tanner Volson and Caleb Butler should be good to go this week.

    Another big one in the Fargodome this week! Since we're fans we can look ahead and if the Bison can win this one 11-0 becomes pretty likely.

    We're a hotdogging bunch of shitbirds who can't tackle and have only one good WR.

    Gonna lose by 3 TD's and their 7 foot tall 400 lb RBs who all run 3.7 40's are going to get 1000 yds rushing.


    Did I cover everything?

    We are doomed.

    Is this going to be a standard length game? Or has Spack requested more time so they don't run out?

    Good question.

    On a related note he apparently made a bet with his players that if they beat SIU by more than 5 TDs last Saturday he'd shave the stache. He's going to look 20 years younger in this trip to the Fargo! Don't know what's going to happen to his mustache's twitter feed now though (looks like it's been pretty dead lately anyway): https://twitter.com/TheSpackStache
