November 3, 20178 yr This Saturday the Colonels travel to Charleston, Illinois to take on the Panthers. The last time the Colonels made the trip, it was a physical beat down and total disaster as all playoff chances were obliterated. The Panthers are 5-4 on the year and riding a two game losing streak. Their wins have come against Indiana State (22-20), SEMO (19-16), Tennesse State (19-16- 2 OT), Tennessee Tech (24-23), and Murray State (27- 24- 2OT). Their losses have come against Northern Illinois (10-38), Illinois State (13-44), Jacksonville State (14-30), and UT Martin (10-27). The Colonels lead the all-time series 13-11. Eastern Illinois leads the series this century 9-8. Eastern Illinois has won the last two games in the series with last year's score being 0-24. The Colonels last won in 2014 by the score of 36-33 in overtime. Thoughts\Predictions?
November 4, 20178 yr Author This game is going to be a huge measuring stick for the Colonels. I can't wait to see the outcome, or at least I'm hoping I can't wait to see the outcome. GO Colonels !
