Steelers looking to add trophy No. 7.
Who’s ready for that headline on February 2?
As we gear up for the NFL Playoffs it’s time for predictions. And since I enjoy people telling me I am wrong I will share my predictions. I like the Pittsburgh Steelers entering the playoffs. And you have to like the Seahawks because they are the hottest team entering the playoffs and play at home where they rarely lose. So those are my favorites.

The Coyote women jumped out to a lead early against Northern Iowa, but the Panthers pesky defense towards the end helped UNI close the gap. South Dakota was able to hold off the charge and defeat UNI 85-77. The Coyotes are now 5-0 all-time against Northern Iowa when playing inside DakotaDome. USD now leads the series 6-5 overall, which means the Coyotes are just 1-5 in Cedar Falls. Can we just schedule this opponent in the Dome only?
Oh, by the way, the team shot 60 percent in the game, which isn’t bad.
Tia Hemiller scored a career-high 20 points in the win and dominated at the end of the game to hold off UNI. She has taken over in the final minute in back-to-back games to help South Dakota to the win. Coyotes are now 5-2 on the season and will host Cal State Fullerton tomorrow.
After the game Jay Elsen and I sat down for a video blog to talk about the Coyote win. I always appreciate the chance to be on with Jay, who also hosts Coyote Corner on Tuesday nights at 8pm CT on Midco Sports Net.

Neither game had a conference championship on the line, but both lower rated teams were looking for upsets to try and secure a spot in the respective NAIA National tournament. Continue reading
