Not since 2012, has there been a Senior Day game that was remotely close. I don't expect that to change today.

I've seen three of SIU's games (Ole Miss, Missouri State and SDSU) so far this year and without a doubt, they have one of the worse defenses I've seen in the MVFC since NDSU joined. Offensively, they put up a lot points, but in an extremely sloppy way.

With that said, NDSU beats SIU all kinds of bad today.

My prediction, Bison over the Salukis by a score of 55-17 and tally over 700 yards on offense.

Stay healthy, hungry and focused. Playoffs are near and I have a feeling the bracket is going to be top-heavy.

My hopes for today.......Easton gets the 32 yards he needs to become the all time MVFC career rushing leader and there are no injuries.

Welcome back to the Fargodome, buttsniffers.

Bison run all day. 45-10. Defense lights out. Menard get sack record today.

This one will be a rough one for Klieman I'm thinking. His group of kids that he got to stay after Coach Bohl left is one of the greatest to come through this program. It really does seem like only yesterday that Stick made his first start. So many outstanding, selfless players who play together as a team in the truest form.

Bison 48
Salukis 17
