South Dakota football vs Northern Iowa, prediction for Week 11

No. 10 South Dakota is coming off a late-season bye week, and the Coyotes are aiming to get back in the win column against MVFC foe Northern Iowa at home. South Dakota's (7-3) last game was a 31-21 loss to South Dakota State in Brookings two weeks ago. Northern Iowa (4-5) lost 41-15 to the Jackrabbits in Cedar Falls a week ago. South Dakota head coach Matt Vitzthum has turned the page from the rivalry loss and is ready to get back on the field and put together a better performance. "We've positioned ourselves really well to head down the stretch here to achieve the things we want to achieve," Vitzthum said. "I know our group's hungry. We're going to play loose and we're going to let it just go here." Suffering a third loss on the season puts lots of extra pressure on these remaining two games for South Dakota. The Coyotes likely need to win out against Northern Iowa and Illinois State to hold onto a first-round bye in the FCS playoffs, so the stakes are clear heading into the final two. "The emphasis in the building has been about just getting back to playing the game of

Large Grant for Public Transit

The Black Hawk County Gaming Association has awarded a $750,000 grant to improve public transit in Waterloo and Cedar Falls. A joint initiative between the cities and MET Transit is looking to raise a total of $4.6million to fund a micro-transit pilot program. The program will use smaller passenger vans to navigate designated zones to provide shared rides that connect riders directly to their destination or link them efficiently to MET Transit’s existing fixed route bus network. Ideally, it would be a “first-mile/last-mile” connector. Specific passenger fares remain under evaluation but the program aims to lower transit barriers, shorten travel times, and increase ridership across the transit system.
