StLRedbird said:I said SDSU@UNI earlier, but it's the other way around. Jacks cannot afford to lose two in a row at home. UNI is going to attack them the same way they did against us. Then they have to play at instate rival USD a week later. USD is suddenly looking pretty good.Chi-bird said:UNI vs SDSU will answer a lot of questions this week.
We currently sit #8 in the coaches poll:

Out of curiosity, what's SIU gotta do before we can start calling that a quality win?
If SIU beats WIU, but get throttled to NDSU, then it's an average win at best, I'm afraid. SIU didn't have to play UNI this year, so they lucked out in that sense. But going 5-3 in the Valley this year, when those wins are against some teams that aren't doing so hot, is just meh. It would be one thing if they took care of business in the non-con, but they beat a bad UMASS team and an average UT Martin team, while losing 2 others to decent teams. Just not enough noise. .
