In this week's Akem's Analysis, I talk about some of the biggest games that happened in FCS football this weekend. To start, we look at the big-time win that Sacramento State had at home against the Northern Colorado Bears. Both teams were 3-3 going into the game, and the winner now has a chance to become a playoff team with the right luck. We also look at 2 games in the MVFC, UND vs SIU, and Illinois State vs YSU. Both games had big performances, but none bigger than Beau Brundgard, who is looking like a serious Walter Payton candidate. He absolutely put the team on his back. At the end, I get into some No Huddle Notes, and in that segment, I start by giving my thoughts on the comments of Sac State's president, Dr. Luke Wood. Following that, I talk about some of the big storylines from the weekend, so stay tuned in for the whole episode.SPORTS BET MONTANA LINK: https://sportsbetmontana.com/en0:00 - Intro2:30 - Sac State vs Northern Colorado Recap13:13 - Tarleton State vs West Georgia Recap23:13 - North Dakota vs Southern Illinois Recap32:36 - Illinois State vs Youngstown State Recap41:43 - No Huddle Notes41:55 - Dr. Luke Wood Montana Comments 47:39 - What Happened To Idaho?52:04 - Lamar Remains Undefeated Against FCS53:47 - Wofford Defeats Furman54:47 - Incarante Word Falls To 2-556:37 - Harvard Remains Undefeated57:54 - Monmouth Loses Starting QB59:32 - Presbyterian Continues To Dominate1:00:53 - Duquesne Looking to Earn The NEC AQ1:02:31 - Final Thoughts1:04:06 - End

NOTICE: This weekly show is now part of the "Happy Hour with John Gaskins" daily podcast, which you can find at SiouxFallsLive.com, MidwestSportsPlus.com, and most podcast platforms like the one you find here! So, if you enjoy the topics Matt & John cover, you'll get those topics, plus relevant local guests, every Monday through Thursday on Happy Hour... so we highly recommend you check that out! Hobo Day hiccup in 2025?Hardly a chance, or so it appears, with No. 2 South Dakota State barging through the second half in Youngstown to improve to 5-0 while 2-3 Northern Iowa stumbled through more growing pains under a new coaching staff in a 35-7 loss to North Dakota.But whenever UNI is listed on SDSU's football schedule as the homecoming opponent, some Jackrabbit fans — especially alumni from 2015 and 2017 — might wince in trauma from past Panther upsets.But is UNI worth any worry this Saturday? Sioux Falls Live sports editor Matt Zimmer has covered the Jacks for a decade and has his thoughts in the latest weekly edition of Happy Hour's "Nobody's Listening Anyway" with John Gaskins.SDSU coach Dan Jackson, in his weekly Happy Hour chat on Monday, conveyed a clear message about what he wants out of Jacks fans on Saturday — strong attempts at the biggest and loudest crowd in Dykhouse Stadium history — and this leads to a discussion about Jackson as the football program's "ambassador" and how natural that unofficial role is for him.Jackson credited his "great program" and "great culture" for the come-from-behind win at then-No. 24 YSU. But was it a great win? Zim and John break down what went wrong in the first half and why SDSU dominated the second half, assess the latest performance from quarterback Chase Mason, and the emerging strength of running back Julius Loughridge and the "605 Hogs" up front.From there, what is there to make of South Dakota's 49-24 win over Murray State, which has lost all of its nine Missouri Valley Conference games since joining the league last season? For at least a game, Travis Johansen was right when he told John last week that his program has too strong of a culture to let the season go off the rails. (Here is Johansen's follow-up chat from Tuesday, with plenty of insight about his defense, penalties, playing violent, and an update on retired predecessor Bob Nielson).The Coyotes have gone "back to the pack" of the rest of the MVFC challengers to NDSU and SDSU's supremacy, but where does USD, UND, Illinois State, Southern Illinois, and Youngstown State appear to be in the current picture?Then, a recap of the latest, incredible chapter in the "Key to the City" series between backyard rivals Augustana and the University of Sioux Falls in which the Vikings came back from a 28-10 fourth quarter deficit to win 29-28 at USF. While Carson Wentz played "fine" in guiding the Minnesota Vikings to their own fourth quarterback in London in another "boring, nondescript" overseas game, what fascinated Zim more than anything on Sunday morning was Will Reichard's fourth quarter field goal kick that was veered off line by striking a seemingly invisible camera — and how nobody seemed to know what the hell happened for a while.The episode ends with the battle between two native South Dakota head coaches in the WNBA Finals, Nate Tibbetts and Becky Hammon. As John mentioned to start Tuesday's show and Zim wrote in a Wednesday column, this source of Rushmore State pride has been decades in the making, a product of a state that has valued and supported girls and women's basketball since well before other states finally found it fashionable.

John Mozeliak reflects on his 30-year Cardinals career, from replacing Albert Pujols to building future talent around players like Jordan Walker. Ackerman and Bernie Miklasz close with Missouri football's playoff potential, debating the Tigers' ranking, schedule strength, and postseason outlook, while also noting Mozeliak's legacy and the leadership transition ahead for the Cardinals.

Gina Hoots joins Cathy to explore where respiratory therapy meets health coaching, especially for people living with chronic lung conditions such as COPD, asthma, bronchiectasis, and more. With over 30 years' experience in both clinical and community settings, Gina shares how she combines science and compassion in her work. We dive into practical breathing techniques, the importance of proper inhaler use, integrating nutrition and lifestyle, and coaching strategies that empower clients beyond traditional medicine. The episode also highlights Gina's work with BluZone.Health, her leadership in respiratory care, and how health coaches and respiratory therapists can collaborate to improve outcomes. Expect both deeply technical takeaways and inspiring mindset shifts. In this episode, you'll discover: How Gina's dual roles as a respiratory therapist and health coach allow her to bridge gaps in patient education, care, and quality of life. Specific breathing practices (nose inhalation, lip‑pursed exhalation, huff coughs, etc.) that help reduce breathlessness, move mucus, and calm anxiety. How to assess if someone is on the “right” inhaler(s) vs. just using rescue inhalers, and what coaches should know about various inhaler classes. Ways health coaches can help clients being proactive in doctor visits—preparing questions, reviewing action plans, and improving collaboration. The role of nutrition, exercise, and reducing environmental/inflammatory exposures in lung health, not just “medication + oxygen.” The gaps in care Gina sees—where patients often don't get enough time, education, or follow‑up—and how health coaches and RTs can fill those gaps. Practical mindset shifts: turning directives into partnership, helping clients find personal “why,” and using breathing as a tool for anxiety and agency. Memorable Quotes: “If you have breathing problems, you're going to get an inhaler. Nobody tests for the breathing like they should.” “Many people think just with breathing problems, oxygen is the answer … But exercise can help that. Breath work … all of that really helps.” “The numbers don't really matter, but just the mindful breathing that you can control your breath.” Bio: Gina Hoots is a nationally recognized respiratory therapist and health coach with over 30 years of clinical and community experience, specializing in chronic lung conditions. As a Health Coach for BluZone.Health, Gina helps individuals live well with COPD, asthma, and other chronic respiratory illnesses through education, behavior change, and lifestyle optimization. She is the co‑creator and co‑host of The Cozy Lung Lounge Podcast, a compassionate, patient‑centered show offering real‑talk and resources for people with chronic lung disease and their caregivers. Whether it's unpacking new science or exploring the emotional side of illness, Gina's podcast makes space for the full experience of breathing and healing. Gina currently serves as the President of the Illinois Society for Respiratory Care, where she champions professional excellence and advocacy for the respiratory therapy field. She is also a COPD Foundation Captain, leading awareness efforts and community‑based support across Central and Southern Illinois. Rooted in both science and spirit, Gina is a proud member of the American Association for Respiratory Care and the Holistic Nurses Association, weaving a whole‑person approach into everything she does.

Jay Greeson, Chris Lee and Chase Robinson preview Michigan's road trip to Oklahoma, a game shown on Saturday night on ABC at 6:30 Central. FanDuel favors Oklahoma by 6 1/2 points as of Monday morning, with an over-under of 46 1/2. Topics in the preview include: Oklahoma's John Matteer was everything the Sooners hoped in a 35-3 win over Illinois State, going 30-for-37 with 392 passing yards, one interception and one touchdown. Matteer's favorite target was Southern Illinois transfer Keontez Lewis, who caught nine balls for 119 yards and two scores. Running back Jadyn Ott, hampered with injuries in fall camp, carried the ball just once for three yards, but should have a bigger role this week. The Wolverines won a closer-than-it-should-have-been game with New Mexico by a 34-17 score in the opener. However, the score was a bit deceiving as Michigan out-gained the Lobos 7.2 yards per play to 3.6. Michigan's defense is loaded with pro prospects, including edge Derek Moore and DL Rayshawn Benny, who are potential top-2-round picks in the coming draft. Michigan cornerback Jyaire Hill a top-four-round prospect too, and safeties TJ Metcalfe and Rod Moore are also draft-able prospects Michigan linebacker Jaishawn Barham, a preseason first team all-Big 10 pick, did play but recorded no stats as he was ejected for targeting. His appeal was denied, meaning, he'll miss the first half of this game. Michigan linebacker Ernest Hausmann led the team with 8 tackles vs. New Mexico. He was Phil Steele's pick on his preseason 2nd-team all-Big 10 team. Wolverines' coach Sherrone Moore will coach this one, and will serve his two-game, NCAA-mandated suspension later in September. Michigan's offense is led by talented freshman Bryce Underwood, who'll have his first road test as a collegiate. Alabama transfer Justice Haynes was Michigan's offensive MVP last week, rushing 15 times for 159 yards and three touchdowns. The Sooners are stout in the trenches with R Mason Thomas, Gracen Halton, David Stone and others leading a very talented front seven.
