Well, at least last year’s contest was (see below), and just as much is on the line tonight, so I don’t see why tonight’s affair should be any different.

The entire season has been building up to this. Eastern Oregon is 21-2; Southern Oregon is 21-2. Need more be said?

7 p.m. start time. Don’t be late or there may not be any seats.

Julius Rucker made a team-high 8 tackles and had a fumble-recovery return of 94 yards for a touchdown — the longest at SOU in at least 20 years. More details here.

@SOURaiders @RaiderVB @LMcGowne

A 3-0 week will likely mean a conference championship. Anything less probably doesn’t…

SOU is undefeated at home. No reason to change that fact this week.

Higher resolution:

skeleton flamingos for Halloween

Unlike last year’s ghost and witch dress ups, this year’s flamingos decided to dress down for the occasion.

#1 Julius Rucker Jr.

@SOURaiders @SOU_Football @Jrucker10

For the first time since the preseason poll, the NAIA football coaches (or at least the 15 with voting power) have selected SOU as the #1 NAIA football team. Ironically, it’s the first week that Massey has SOU as anything other than #1. Massey shows Reinhardt as their new #1 and SOU as #2. The coaches have Reinhardt at #6. Reinhardt has a bye week followed by their most difficult opponent, so far, Campbellsville on the road on 11/7. Reinhardt is still a 7-point favorite in that one. SOU is a 14-point favorite at Rocky Mountain this weekend.
