SIU in a romp over the Sycs
YSU handles the Bears
WKU squeaks by the Leathnecks in the upset
Iowa State's Cyclones storm over UNI...I'm rooting for the Panthers, but...

Let the Gateway wars begin!! :fear:

I'm not a very good predictor, but I do think that the Sycs no-huddle offense will give Southern some trouble.

It can disrupt substitution patterns for the D. The Trees can put up some points, but they don't seem to be able to stop anyone. They rank last in the league in pass D, rushing D, total D and scoring D. They also lead the league in turnovers (12) and have the least sacks(1). This could be a shootout, but the Dawgs just have more weapons.

The quest for the fourth straight title starts today.
:salukis:

Salukis lead Indiana State 24-3 at the half.
WIU leading WKU 21-7 with 4:25 left in the first half
UNI leading Iowa State 21-7 with a little over 2 minutes left in the first half
Misery State just took a 10-9 lead on Youngstown.

Missouri State's defense is giving YSU all kinds of trouble.

UNI could help the Gateway out big time, as the conference already has a win over Indiana.

Dang. I got them all right. Wish I had been wrong on the Panther game.

After the first drive, I guess our guys did a pretty good job of figuring it out. :salukis:

The Dawgs figured it out a lot better than Murray or Purdue did.
:grin:

Wow, how good is SIU? The Sycs score 35 at Purdue but only 3 on the Dogs.:ermm:

[salukibob]

Pretty good, but still could end up around 4th in the league. I mean that's how balanced the Gateway is this year. We're getting better and better; but so are some of the other Gateway opponents.

The D was supposed to be one of our question marks for this year with only 2 starters returning. If anything, it looks like it has improved.
