This weeks game is the Yotes homecoming, known as Dakota Days (D-Days) so it should be a full house in the Dome. Any Penguin fans making the trip to Vermillion should be sure to order their tickets online ahead of time. There are still tickets available, but it will likely sellout from the walk-up crowd on gameday.
In addition to the D-Days excitement, there is also a lot of buzz about Bo Pelini. Vermillion is about 3 hours from Lincoln and a lot of Yote fans are also fans of the Huskers.
As far as the game itself, really don't know what to expect. I think the Yotes are an improved team over last year, but how that translates to wins and losses is hard to tell. We are pretty much injury free so far this year (with the exception of our starting QB, Kevin Earl. But he has been out since spring ball and his backup, Ryan Saeger, played some last year and has been doing a good job so far. This game will be a good measuring stick of what sort of year the Yotes will have.
The following link is to the Yotes weekly TV report. Not as much coverage this week as normal, since coming off a bye week, but starting at about the 12:30 mark is a discussion of the season to date and expectations for the game this weekend.

I believe the game is being carried in the Youngstown area and I assume they will be picking up the Midco feed. The Midco feed is also available on ESPN3
