The YO Show:
Penguins have another home game! Also another must win for playoff hopes. Penguins should be favored, but that doesn't mean a thing in this league. Need to be tough and get the win.

guinpen:
agreed!

YsuPride:
They have won 2 league games this year.  Our defense stinks so i expect a game from them.  All games are going to be tough because our defense is so poor.   One game we shined and it got everyone's hopes up.  In league play we are giving up well over 30 pts a game.  We need to outscore opponents rest of season because the defense will not get fixed this far into season for sure.  I predict a 45-31 score this Saturday against Missouri state in favor of us.  My predictions only.

IAA Fan:
I am getting sick of everyone thinking we can lose to SDSU and still make the play-off. You can tell the announcers and media think the same. We have a poor schedule strength. We have 2 good teams and two medium teams on our schedule. Good teams will be in strong consideration for the post-season. Medium teams are nothing but spoilers. We have lost to both of our medium teams this year, with none remaining. We have beat one good team, with one more on our schedule. WE CANNOT LOSE A SINGLE GAME. THIS INCLUDES SDSU. I mean just how many play-off teams do you think are coming from one conference?

South Dakota State    7-0
South Dakota           6-1
Northern Iowa    4-3
North Dakota State 5-2
Southern Illinois    5-2
-------------------------------------
Illinois State           4-3
North Dakota          4-3
YSU                         4-3

If the play-off was now, the MVFC MAY go 5-deep, but not likely. However, everyone on the top goes. Those below do not. If they go 4-deep from the MVFC, then UNI drops down to play spoiler, which they did against YSU. I suspect UNI and SIU will each lose a minimum of one remaining game. If that happens UNI is out, but SIU is still in. That gives us a strong chance if we win out. Not go 3-1, but 4-0 beginning last Saturday. We have one game down and 3 more to go. So let's go Guins. Just concentrate on the task at hand!!!

45-31 sounds about right for this weeks game. They average around 33 so I am thinking 45-35 unless by some miracle there are some positive changes in our defense. We better aim for 45+ against SDSU because they might hang 50 on our D.
