Happy Hour with John Gaskins

John-o-logue: Goalposts have moved at USD, but not SDSU; Wentz Wentzes in drunk game in Dublin

You don't know. You may think you know. But you don't know.

That wasn't just a famous line from former Saints and Colts coach Jim Mora, Sr., over 30 years ago. It serves as the motto of Happy Hour with John Gaskins. It's is what the nature of football in 2025 — the ever-changing NFL and the transient college football landscape — continues to prove.

Exhibit A: The South Dakota Coyotes being considered a preseason national championship contender. Made sense, with USD returning its sturdy and proven quarterback and All-American running back, plus hiring as head coach the defensive coordinator that made the Coyotes a defense to be reckoned with the last few years in their climb into Top 5 status.

Oh, sure, USD lost its best few defensive playmakers, some skill weapons, and most of its offensive line to FBS schools, but isn't every FCS school going through that? Well, yes, but Saturday's 51-13 sledgehammer beating at No. 1 North Dakota State, which dropped USD to 2-3 and in a position where it will have to fight to just make the playoffs proved our motto:

We don't know. We may think we know. But we don't know. Happy Hour host John Gaskins leads off the show with where or how things went wrong. Hear from NDSU coach Tim Polasek on his dynamite quarterback (so far) Cole Payton, and also hear our Monday afternoon quarterback, local radio and TV football analyst Kurtiss Riggs, explain why the Coyotes have dropped so far (so far this season) and why South Dakota State has mostly upheld its elite status through four games, all wins.

Also, we can tamp down the Carson Wentz becoming the Vikings permanent QB1 chatter.
