As the purple-clad Demons (white pants) and the all white (reminscent of Penn State) Southeastern Oklahoma Savage Storm begin their pregame routines, the Spirit of Northwestern marching band is beginning its procession down to Tuprin Stadium.
The skies are a soft blue and the weather is absolutely ideal.
Demon Sports Network play by play man Patrick Netherton reports that tailgating is at a gourmet-level. He hung out with David and Stuart Wright for a while, sampling their grilled fare, then went to interview Demon coach Scott Stoker for the pregame show. Afterwards, it was off to join the Lady Demon basketball team with chef extraordinare Layne Miller.
If you've never had Layne's "pastalaya" it is imperitive for your taste buds to correct that this fall.
Interesting scores across the FCS nation so far -- Montana is tied with Division II Central Washington 35-35 with under four minutes left to play. Across the country, in Boston, Northeastern surrendered 10 first quarter points and then rallied to whip UC Davis 27-10 in a game that had a very familiar tone -- it was raining at Parsons Field, there were dozens of fans there and the home team played tremendous defense and displayed a physical running game.
All of the SLC action is at night.
Tonight on the Demon Sports Network, look forward to a halftime interview with Demon legend Walter Ledet. It's been 70 years since his senior sesaon wearing No. 61 for NSU.
