Too Early? I think not.
Game day for the SIU vs. South Dakota State is still three days away but already the anticipation and excitement is building. Sure, two more regular season games remain but this one has a lot of post-season implications.
SIU, third-ranked and sporting a 7-1 (6-0 Missouri Valley Football Conference) record and a seven game win streak will meet No. 9 ranked South Dakota State, with an identical 7-1 and 6-0 mark.
While the season is approached one game at a time the fact that SIU plays against Missouri State (5-4)in the 'Last Hurrah' at McAndrew Stadium on Nov. 14 and then finishes the regular season on Nov. 21 against Southeast Missouri State (1-7 and 0-6 in Ohio Valley Conference play) adds more to the importance of this road game.
This is a battle of heavyweights so it's certainly not too early to get your game face on. So, as I post this (about 77 hours until game time) let's all join together with a mid-week battle cry. Are your ready, OK ... one ... two ... three ...
GO DAWGS!
