EDIT - also Martin Ruiz, one of their top RBs was held out of most of last weekend's game, only in on one play, and is facing firearm charges also: http://wkbn.com/2016/12/13/youngstown-s ... um=twitter

Maybe he just figured that since Illinois State's star RB got arrested for selling pot to a police informant and didn't miss any games, that this would be fine too ;)

JMU got into Fargo Wednesday night. They should be fully acclimatized to the Fargo cold by now. However, the noise in the Dome will be a different matter.
Embrace the pace of the race.

Abdullah is a stud. Consistent improvement from year to year. Game changer in every sense of the word.

Looking like tickets to Frisco are going to be much easier to come by than people thought.

StubHub price is around $180 right now. Soon as I see one on StubHub under $100, I'm all in.
