NE had the ball and our crowd was making lots of noise. The NE announced asked the ‘home fans’ to please be quiet when NE had the ball. Needless to say we got even louder.

I remember the Hickory Stick games, but I never "felt" anything towards Truman State. It was always MoWest for me and then probably Central... I'm not sure why Central, but those were the top of list "rivals" as far as I was concerned. Didn't Central light our mascot on fire one year or something like that? I'm surely remembering that story wrong. lol
Fans were throwing popcorn and ice at NW fans. My 3 yr old daughter was freaked out and we never took her back to a game there.
Some Central fans took Bobbie Bearcat’s about 4’ ‘spirit stick’ from him and bashed in his ‘head’ and someone else tried to light his tail on fire.
Word later was that Central paid to replace the entire costume.
NW lost by a couple but handed them their only D2 loss of the year at Marville. Coleman vs Nunnley was quite a battle that year.

It seems like every week, the Emporia game is a big question mark in my picks. I was all set to pick the bods, but am really waffling now.
Reasons not to pick ESU.
ESU wears their own defense out running that gimmick every single series, and the Bods have a back that can just punish them late in the game.
The ESU defense is pretty decent, but I'm not 100% sold on the back end of that D. Pitt got behind them a few times, but the qb missed the throw. Letcher could really hurt them, imo.
Return coverage is suspect.
Reasons to pick ESU. .
It's a crazy rivalry.

They have a ball hawking defense, and the bods qb isn't super accurate.
