Damn...I always forget to post Northwestern. They're local, and they have a Leatherneck punter.

Yup, I'm well aware of Luke. Pretty sure he tweets more about Leatherneck football than he does about Northwestern football. Great opportunity for him at NU, but he's a Leatherneck at heart.

I woke up this AM and said to myself that there should be 3 or 4 close games today. Average margin of victory is around 30 and the Yotes are not done with the Dawgs yet.
Embrace the pace of the race.

The South Dakota Coyote football team announced Saturday that three players, including a team captain, have been suspended for unspecified violations of team rules.

Not playing vs. Southern Illinois at the Dakota Dome were Adam Harris, a senior from Clearwater, Fla., who is a three-year starter at cornerback and a team co-captain who has started every game this season and has 29 tackles.

Others not playing were Danny Rambo, a junior from Donalsville, Fla., who was an honorable mention all-conference pick in 2016 and has 40 tackles this year, including one interception. Also suspended was sophomore reserve cornerback Dale Williamson, a native of Texarkana, Texas.

The suspensions are indefinite.
