Enough talk about the YSU game. Over and done. Now on to USD.

Last regular season home game and the senior's last regular season home game.

USD has been a surprise this year IMO. After last year's train wreck, Joe Glenn has improved the Coyote team with their first 3 conference wins coming this year. USD has had some close losses this year that has taken them out of playoff contention. YSU and Montana were games that they could have won but didn't make the plays when they needed to.

USD has a stud LB in Tyler Starr. He is the real deal and NDSU will need to account for him on every play. USD's defense has been playing better this year and will need to bring their A-game to have a chance against the Bison. On offense they replaced their QB with 2nd stringer Kevin Earl and he has done some good things for the Coyotes. Sounds like their two RBs are banged up so it will be interesting to see if they play on Saturday.

NDSU's seniors are:

#1 Marcus Williams
#2 Brendin Pierre
#4 Ryan Smith
#5 Derrick Lang
#12 Cooper Wahlo Jr
#16 Brock Jensen
#22 Sam Ojuri
#24 Bryan Shepherd
#29 A J Van Voorhis
#34 Grant Olson
#40 Andrew Grothmann
#44 Antonio Rodgers
#50 Michael Murphy
#60 Ryan Drevlow
#63 Anthony LaVoy
#69 Leevon Perry
#71 Tyler Gimmestad
#74 Andrew Nack
#77 Billy Turner
#85 Kevin Vaadeland
#86 Taylor Nelson
#93 Cole Jirik
#94 Danny Luecke
#95 Jeremy Gordon

It has been a great ride with this senior class. They are 47-7 in their 4 years so far.

Looking forward to Saturday and the playoff games to come.


Oh ya, the Bison win this game 38-10
