The USD and SDSU football teams and their fans might be pitted against each other, but there are two teams coming together for this weekend's rivalry.
"Operation Road Runner" is a 132-mile journey starting Friday from the Dakota Dome. The run calls for 30 cadets to run a mile with the football and then switch with a cadet from the other school. Following behind the runner will be two buses holding the remaining cadets.
The approximate arrival times for the cadets on Nov. 16:
• Centerville, 4 p.m.
• Chancellor, 7 p.m.
• Hartford, 10 p.m.
The approximate arrival times for the cadets on Nov. 17:
• Colton, 1 a.m.
• Chester, 3 a.m.
• Colman, 5 a.m.
• Brookings, 10 a.m.
