Re: 9/16/23 - vs Lindenwood

Lindenwood has 13 Sports teams for Men and 15 Sports teams for Women.   Just curious - Western was (I believe) D2 when I went there, and there seemed to be a lot more sports available at that time. Granted, the campus population was likely triple what it is now, but still. I was just wondering if L...

Re: 9/16/23 - vs Lindenwood

This is the first night game we've had at home since 2018 (non Covid).  Be interesting to see what the game atmosphere will be like.  Attendance, lighting, etc.

Re: Illinois State

One thing I am very worried about is our kicking game.  I think we are really going to miss Mason this year.  We've been spoiled with a pretty solid stream of kickers the last 6 years at least.

Re: Illinois State

I like our chances tomorrow.  Not calling for a W just yet, but I saw some very promising things last week.   1) I know we had a lot of missed tackles.  But our scheme had players in the right place, they just didn't finish.  That happens sometimes when you are playing a level up.  Opposing players ...

Re: Illinois State

Also, I wish we would stop running a 3-4.  It's been ok for us once in the last 20 years and that was because we had Khalen Saunders.  We get destroyed up the middle and rarely see the fruits of have 2 OLB's getting pressure off the edge on passing downs (Swenson 17' - 18' and large part because of...

Re: 2023 Season

Pretty much every school does this nothing new    Never seen at a school this size two weeks before the first game     Walkons can't be with the team before classes start.  This really is a non issue man.  They aren't looking for players that are going to contribute.  At best, practice players.

Ya, there must be a reason, otherwise this is a confusing decision.

Re: Game Day Atmosphere for ISU

If anyone reading this thread is active in the planning/hosting of the Mega reunion, it would be awesome if we could ask the folks attending, that know they want to go to the game, to purchase advanced tickets.  That would really help the athletic dept be prepared.  We don't want to discourage walk ...
