BROOKINGS – The South Dakota Showdown Series had been a rivalry that was dominated by one side up until three years ago.
That’s when South Dakota pulled off a 24-21 upset win over then No. 5 ranked South Dakota State. It was the first win for USD over SDSU since the Coyotes joined the FCS in 2012 and their first win in the series since 2000.
