The Colonels will host Indiana St at The Kidd in FCS playoff action this Saturday at 1 pm.

Good to see EKU get a home game for the playoffs. Would love to go see it but geography and life is in the way.
Is this the first home playoff game since 93 or 94 against Boston U?

[Westside]

No they had one two or three years ago that they lost on a last second field goal.

[Jarons]

^Hopefully that won't happen again. I would love to see them make a deep run this year.

The Colonels lost in 2011 20-17 to James Madison at the Kidd.

That same James Madison team almost beat North Dakota State on the road and NDS won the national title pretty easily

Does Ben Madon from Bell County start at TE for EKU

Does Ben Madon from Bell County start at TE for EKU

He's not really the starter but he gets a lot of playing time. The starter is Matt Lengel who is a 6th year senior that is coming back from 2 major knee injuries. Ben plays in a lot of 2 tight sets which EKU uses a lot.

This will be an extremely tough game for the Colonels. ISU might have 5 losses but they also have wins over FBS Ball State, Liberty and Northern Iowa (who ended North Dakota State's long winning streak recently). I'm glad it is at home.

If you are good enough to make the playoffs out of the Missouri Valley Conference, you are really good. After all, they put 5 teams into the playoffs and Youngstown was not a joke either.

The Colonels proved they can play with the best in the country when the took Jacksonville State to the wire. They just need to play with the same intensity as they did in that game.
