College football season kicks off officially next week as teams hit the practice field Wednesday. On Monday, the Missouri Valley Football Conference was the talk of FCS as they hosted a media day that included the head coach and two players from each team.

 

The Jackrabbits got the nod as the No. 2 team in the preseason poll, which comes as a surprise to some after several losses to graduation and the portal.

 

However, sitting down with head coach Dan Jackson, defensive lineman Kobe Clayborne, and offensive lineman Sam Hagen, you get the feeling that the Jackrabbits believe they're in a great position to vie for the top spot in the country.

 

Matt Zimmer and Marcus Traxler break down their chat with them and have conversations with SIU and Youngstown State as well.

 

You'll be able to watch/listen to more from the Missouri Valley media day, including USD and NDSU, in the coming days!
