@awfulannouncing This is how @PatMcAfeeShow rolled up the first time. Imagine what the show could have been this weekend #GoJacks

[Jacob Foley @JacobFoleyMN]

@IceBorg @GoJacksFB @NDSUfootball Awesome game to remember. Just think of all the talent in this game and how many of these guys play/start on Sundays yet today! Why would you ever want to attend a different Dakota school!? #gojacks

[Jacob Foley @JacobFoleyMN]

@JackIllustrated Apparently Gronowski was throwing to himself to reach 1st team without a single WR making the list anywhere. I don’t get it?

[Jacob Foley @JacobFoleyMN]

@GoJacksFB @goedert33 The rough part is, he ran right by Rozeboom to make that TD, pretty cool. #NFLJacks

@alisonrISU has anyone confirmed Red Crown Rot in MN or SD? Seems like SW MN and the surrounding tri-state area can find it with ease.

[Jacob Foley @JacobFoleyMN]

@FCSFansNation Seems like a very accurate list, @USD nowhere to be found. Just the way it should be #gojacks

@Super70sSports Our family was in the Metrodome when @AdrianPeterson broke the single game rushing record against the Titans back in ‘’07. That bubble was absolutely rocking that day!

@SDDEKALBASGROWA @YouTube Getting more and more reports of the same popping up in SW MN over the last 24 hours. Rock and parts of Nobles Co.. Hadn’t thought to check soil temp along with moisture. Thanks Jeff!

South west MN hit the beginning of egg hatch this week, thankfully we’re not to the peak yet. Few more weeks before that battle begins. Great info here Tyler, like your map!

[Tyler Vreugdenhil 🌽🌱🧬🐞🦠 @TylerVreugdenh1]

The $1 Billion dollar pest of the corn world, Corn Rootworm facts:
Egg hatch begins after 380 GDD have accumulated (Jan 1 current year start)
Peak egg hatch occurs between 684-767 GDD
Start root examinations 10-14 days after peak hatch

Planting depth is critical when soil moisture is variable.

Planted 5/7/23, DEKALB 105-35 is off to the races! @Asgrow_DEKALB

[Jacob Foley @JacobFoleyMN]

@n_web Great. Now I have to go re-learn order of operations. -42 GDUs doesn’t seem right

[Jacob Foley @JacobFoleyMN]

Corn plot seed sorting day in SW MN today! Lots of exciting hybrids in this picture from @Asgrow_DEKALB. And don’t forget new VT4PRO trait stack finding it’s way into the mix from @BayerTraits #plant23

[Jacob Foley @JacobFoleyMN]

@apasztor82 You gotta eat at Torey’s. Awesome food, owned by a farmer (if I remember correctly)

[Jacob Foley @JacobFoleyMN]

@SWMNpest @mncorn Hope “larvae starvae” isn’t trade marked. Definitely going to use that one

[Jacob Foley @JacobFoleyMN]

@MichaelWSpike @MadFarmer80 We’ve had a ton of snow this year, and it keeps coming. Moisture is great, but we’ll need warmer temps soon to melt it all and get planters going.

[Jacob Foley @JacobFoleyMN]

@MadFarmer80 @MichaelWSpike That tweet about a lot of snow has aged poorly. I like moisture, but enough already. Need some spring weather

[Jacob Foley @JacobFoleyMN]

@n_web Two things—1. We’ve seen colder this year so the glass is half full. It could be worse.
2. Obligatory “it wouldn’t be so bad if the dang wind would die down.”

[Jacob Foley @JacobFoleyMN]

@Asgrow_DEKALB I chose one “work” hat a year to beat up on all summer long. This one is from 2022, and she saw a few long days. No need to replace it tho, I’ve already chosen my 2023 hat 😁

[Jacob Foley @JacobFoleyMN]

@SDStateAlumni That sounds like a blast! Will you change rally admittance rules midday Jan. 7th like @GoJacksSDSU did today? There’s a good chance we’ll be in Frisco no matter what. Unlike the “confirmed” game tickets I bought today, the 4 airline tickets we purchased are non-refundable.
