Drake’s Todd Stepsis previews No. 6 South Dakota
September 18th, 2024 by Ric Hanson
After posting a shocking upset at Eastern Washington Drake is on the road this Saturday at sixth ranked South Dakota. The Bulldogs were off last week and coach Todd Stepsis says the win provided a confidence boost for his team.
Stepsis says the Bulldogs are not satisfied with that win.
It is a game featuring teams who have had games cancelled. For Drake it was the opener against Quincy and for South Dakota it was last week’s game on the road due to whooping cough at Portland State.
South Dakota’s only loss was 27-13 at Wisconsin and Stepsis says the Coyotes are really good up front.
Stepsis says they key to a game like this is keeping it close into the third quarter.
