South Dakota's win over Drake was the single most dominating performance I have witnessed in my five plus years covering the team. In the days that followed, I had several people ask me what the Coyotes really gained from the experience. My thoughts on that, as well an in-depth look at this week's matchup against Bowling Green, is the focus of the latest MidcoSN Podcast featuring Argus Leader Media's Mick Garry.
