These two teams met last week with Sioux Falls scoring 18 points in the 4th quarter to pull out the win. Sioux City is 1-3 in their last four games and will need to get on a roll if they are to make the playoffs. The Bandits are currnetly tied with Bloomington and Evansville for the final playoff spot. The Bandit's offense continues to cost them games as their defense is ranked #1 in least yards allowed and #2 in least points allowed. Sioux City has held the Storm to their two lowest scoring outputs of the season, but haven't scored a victory against their rival this season. The Sioux Falls defense has also been dominant this season as they are on pace to set a UIF record for least points allowed in a season. The Storm have allowed 295 and the record is held by Fort Wayne who allowed 497 last season. Last week, Storm defensive lineman Nate Fluit set a UIF record for most sacks in a season with 15.5.
