NORMAL, Ill. - The Illinois State football team heads into this weekend's game against a tough Missouri State team as the No. 25 ranked team in the country, thanks to big road win last week at South Dakota State. ISU head coach Brock Spack will preview the upcoming game with the Bears and will offer insights from last weekend's game against the nationally-ranked Jackrabbits Thursday night on The Brock Spack Show live from Schooners in Bloomington.
Co-hosts Dick Luedke and Ted Schmitz will interact with coach Spack during the hour-long show beginning at 6 p.m. The show has returned to its regular night on Thursdays and will remain there for the rest of the regular season.
Coach Spack will be joined on the broadcast by junior wide receiver Marvon Sanders as this week's player guest. Sanders was named the Missouri Valley Football Conference Newcomer of the Week, after catching a career-high 10 passes against SDSU. The transfer from Eastern Michigan, set a new career high with those 10 catches for 82 yards and also hauled in his first career touchdown as a Redbird. Sanders leads all Redbird receivers and all receivers in the conference with 20 catches for 217 yards on the season and is averaging 72.3 yards per game receiving.
Schooners is located at 810 East Grove Street in Bloomington and sits just off the corner Grove and Clinton Streets. If you can't make it out to Schooners, the show will be broadcast on WJBC AM-1230 and 93.7 FM in the Twin Cities and on GoRedbirds.com.
