Word out of Helena is that ISU is getting rid of the Saints game and replacing it with a game vs. San Diego State. Big payday for ISU.

Not real sure how big a payday that one will be. EWU played them last year (lost 19-9) and I think after expenses they neted $60,000. There was only like 24,000 at QualComm but I must say San Diego was nice. In comparison the year before when EWU played Arizona State they neted around $150,000. Oh, by the way I'm looking foward to the trip on 11/20, for the Big Sky Championship...

Post here closer to game-time and we can tailgate before the game if you want! Should be a good one. Hopefully we can redeem ourselves after you beat us last year! :(

I agree this saves ISU embarassement, but it says something when we consider ISU to be ducking an NAIA opponent.
