South Dakota State football earns 41-0 win over Southeastern Louisiana
South Dakota State football earned its third win of the season in a dominant 41-0 victory over Southeastern Louisiana on Saturday, thanks in large part to their defense and running game.
The Jackrabbits rushed for 341 yards against the Lions on Saturday night. Kirby Vorhees was the standout for SDSU, leading the team in rushing yards with 179 on only five attempts. That total was more than the entire Southeastern Louisiana team, and he also had three touchdown runs. The next best rusher was Amar Johnson who ran for 65 yards on 11 carries.
Defensively, South Dakota State didn’t allow a touchdown in the entire game. They held the Lions offense to only 92 passing yards and 94 rushing yards. Daeton Mcgaughy and Bryce Hawthorne each came up with solo sacks while Steven Arrell and Colby Huerter each forced interceptions. Huerter also led the Jackrabbits in solo tackles.
While SDSU played great defense and was able to run the ball pretty much whenever they wanted, they once again struggled in the passing game. Senior quarterback Mark Gronowski completed just seven of his 17 pass attempts for 65 yards. The reigning Walter Payton Award Winner also threw another interception Saturday.
South Dakota State will have a bye next week and then play its conference opener on Saturday, Oct. 5 at Northern Iowa.

VIEWPOINT | South Dakotans deserve the full story
Families in South Dakota work hard. We sacrifice a lot and ask very little from the people who govern us. We expect honesty, careful budgeting, and leadership that puts our interests above politics.
In his recent budget address, our governor painted an incomplete picture. He celebrated good results but did not explain what and who made those results possible. South Dakotans deserve more than selective storytelling. We deserve the truth.
