 When the BSU football team in Northern State hit the turf this weekend, there will be a little less on the line than the last time the Beavers and Wolves met. The two teams met in the final week of the season last year to decide the NSIC North. BSU pulled out a 41-24 victory in that game to claim a share of the NSIC North title, and this weekend the Beavers will look to ride the momentum of a 52-3 blowout of you, Mary, into their game against the Wolves. They're battle-tested, they're a veteran group as well, so they're just going to see a physical football team coming in here that plays all three phases really well. We're just going to keep playing our game, you know. We had a great game against Mary, but we still had a lot of things to clean up. We felt like it wasn't as clean in the first half as we usually do. It's just another week for us. We try to, our big thing on the team is go 1-0 on the week and it doesn't matter what opponent we're playing. If we can play our game, or execute our game plan and try to take care of our business, we have a good chance of winning the football game. And the team may still be without kicker slash punter Isaac Honorud, who was injured last week during pre-game warm-ups. But with more time to prepare, Coach Bolte says they have a better backup plan in place if Honorud is unable to go. We're just trying to give him as much rehab time for his injury as much as we can. So we've got plan B, a little bit better situated than we did last weekend. So if you can't go, we've got a freshman that we were trying to redshirt that he'll be able to do the kicking game and kind of settle in on some other kids that we feel a little bit more comfortable in last week than haven't been getting thrown back there.
