Line opened at SEMO -19 total 64. Line down to SEMO -16 1/2 now. What does everyone think?

Should be a good test for the Redhawks

Northwestern is #8 in passing offense in FCS, so the SEMO secondary will have to have a strong day.

They pulled out a narrow victory vs Nicholls St. and lost to Eastern Illinois, so the Redhawks should be able to win by a couple touchdowns. Hope the week off gave SEMO some worthwhile rest and recovery and come out strong and determined. There's some great leaders on this year's team, so the team should be focused to keep the win streak alive.

The early turnovers by Northwestern and the onside kid really blew this game open quickly. This offense is lethal

The first half was about as good as it gets. The backups still need some work but it's hard to find much that was negative in this one.

Has there been an update on DeLaurent? I know he went down late in the 3rd, it looked like he was just landed on really hard and maybe either got the wind knocked out of him or hurt his ribs, he didn't come back in.

They said during the game it was his ribs but not how bad. We should find out more tomorrow during the coaches show at wings etc.

He shouldn't have been in the game at that point, and definitely shouldn't have been in an empty backfield situation in field goal range either. And it was a dirty play., the guy literally jumped on him and tried to make it look like he was falling, but that kid didn't go to acting school. Dirty play, but we put our star QB in that position when we knew they were playing dirty all game.

Not sure I agree that he should have been pulled at that point, it was still the 3rd quarter against the 1st place Southland team. But I do agree that there was no need to be in an empty backfield pass play at that time of the game in that field position on that specific series.

And LOL at the Southland. The OVC is now 5-1 against them this year, with the only OVC loss coming from Murray.
