Southeast Missouri State fans would probably just like to forget how last season ended. On the cusp of pulling off a stunner on the road in one of the harshest environments FCS football can offer, SEMO failed to hold onto a 24-3 second half lead. Montana stormed all the way back with an avalanche of big plays that left the Redhawks on the wrong end of an epic comeback in the opening round of the playoffs.
A loss like that is sometimes difficult to look past but when you realize it came on the tail end of a very successful run.
