Gameday blog: Southeast at Eastern Kentucky

My view from the press box at Roy Kidd Stadium in Richmond, Kentucky, as Southeast Missouri State takes on Eastern Kentucky.

The Southeast Missouri State football team will try to extend its winning streak to three games with an Ohio Valley Conference game against Eastern Kentucky at 5 p.m. Saturday at Roy Kidd Stadium.

Trent Singer will provide updates from the game. You can follow along on Twitter @semoballTrent for live updates throughout the game, and you don't have to have a Twitter account to see their posts.

The Redhawks, who are 2-3 on the season and 2-0 in OVC play, enter the game after knocking off then-No. 13 Eastern Illinois in last week's game at Houck Stadium. Southeast's defense held the Panthers to only one touchdown, while junior quarterback Jesse Hosket played a part in all three of the Redhawks' touchdowns.

The play-action pass proved to be a huge factor in the Redhawks' win over EIU. Southeast, which had two players earn OVC weekly honors following last week's victory, has been getting stellar play from its defense, particularly in the red zone. Read more about it here.
