While Schultzie hits the road the next couple of weeks, I'll be taking over the play by play duties for BSU Football which is now 4-1 on the season. It's Homecoming this weekend so it's only appropriate that I'll be joined in the booth by the former voice of the Beavers and BSU alum Shaun Michaels. Shaun moved back to the area with his family a couple of years ago and is kind enough to help us out when we have broadcast conflicts between sports. The game is against Concordia St. Paul, who has struggled a bit this year but last year defeated BSU to essentially knock them out of playoff contention. I expect a different result on Sunday with a BSU team that has played very well. The loss to UMD was a missed opportunity, but this team has a great chance of making the D2 playoffs for the first time in their history. It sure has been fun to see the great crowds at the Chet and Saturday should be no different. My predication, BSU 31-10.
Lastly, don't forget our Sports in the Round broadcasts every Wednesday night from 6-8 live from the Ground Round in Bemidji. It's our 11th consecutive season and we'd love to see you there. Eugene and Sue have been great hosts to the show through our eleven years and you can't go wrong with the food/drinks! Stop by and join us one of these Wednesdays!
