Unless Iowa blows them out, then it's KSU and Central Michigan.
I think Iowa's coaching staff is leaving to take another job after the Rose Bowl, and will take all 22 starters with them, so if NDSU does win it won't be a big deal. Any good FCS team would beat them. Remember, NDSU only schedules FBS teams that are in down cycles that they should beat.

Supported by the fact a decade later Bison fans bring it up on a UND sports forum before it's fifth straight national FCS title.
Only when UND fans cry about it not being fair that NDSU won't play in Grand Forks. I'm sorry, that NDSU is "scared" to play in Grand Forks.

NDSU's athletic dept. isn't clueless, a loss to UND would really change the way people see things in regards to football. The odds of a UND win go down severely when the game is in the Fargodome with a playoff atmosphere. There is a reason Gene wouldn't agree to a game in Grand Forks no matter what was thrown at him.
But I thought the Fargodome was not a hard place to play. . I heard from many SIoux fans that UND owned the Fargodome. Why play in the Alerus in front of 12,000 when they can play in their home away from home in front of 19,000?

No one except you said that, it's the reward of winning 7 games taken away because we don't have enough quality losses and it's given to a 6 win team that UND fans are pissed about. So if you want to make !@#$ up as you go along head over to the imaginary land called Bisonswille. Where you can fit right in.
Well one of your UND beat writers tweeted out when there weren't enough bowl eligible teams that a team in Grand Forks would take on anybody in the FBS. Kind of sounds like Mr. Nelson thinks UND was as good as anybody in the country.

No question - it's historic and something any fan base would relish. Too bad the ongoing posts here make it impossible to root for them even a little.
I don't think NDSU is going to have a cake walk agiainst JSU. They have proven they can be beaten(USD) if they play poorly. But people that think Jax State is going to roll through NDSU like they did against SHSU are wrong.
And I get sick of UND fans saying they were just a subbed invitation away from winning a National Championship.

Agree with SIOUXFAN97….Crappy (over rated) teams at home….where is the only place the Big Bad ASS Bison won't travel ……90 miles NORTH…..hope Jacksonville puts up 60 again in 3 weeks!!!!
Why would they travel 90 miles north when they can make 100'000's of thousands of dollars with an FBS road game or another home game? If UND would pay a 400 to 500 thousand guarantee NDSU would be happy to take it.

How much would you like to bet on Jax State putting up 60 in Frisco?

You are comparing a week 3 UND squad vs. a semifinalist Richmond team?
Again......Richmond sucks.
Does anybody think that UND's run at the end of the season has anything to do with the crap teams they were playing?

jacksonville state will end the run of the Bison at 4.
I am not sure about that. Things snowballed on an SHSU team that was not very good in the first place and they completely quit. And their QB was horrible. The Bison will score some points (at least in the 30's) and I don't think JSU can keep up against the NDSU defense.
-
I am guessing you can't be looking forward to playing them twice this year then.
It is always a fun game to go to and I will be there, but no, I am not expecting a win. The one thing NDSU usually does is play good defense, which usually avoids blowouts, but Inwill be surprised if either game is kept in single digits.
-
While I won't disagree with your main point, this story was originated with a ndsu fan not a UNI fan. One of the Grizzly fans from AGS also had quite a story about how he was treated quite poorly by a handful of people he didn't know.
And I am sure there were some NDSU fans that were treated poorly in Missoula this year. Like SiouxRube said, there are Richards in all fan bases. I wish it didn't happen, but it does. I didn't hear about any major problems at the NDSU/UND FB game this year. From all reports things went rather well. But I am sure yiu could find a couple of fans that had a bad experience.
-
none of this is true. Jacks were due to come to GF this year but Jones wanted to take a 1 year break so that cycle with NDSU and Jacks would be home/away in each season. In other words, wants each year to have an away game at sdsu and home game vs NDSU and vice versa for following years.
That was quite possibly Coach Jones best coaching move in his time at UND. SDSU would have killed UND this year. They should be more competitive with the Jacks next year. They lose two very good guards after this year. I think you can pencil in the Jacks into The Big Dance this tear.
-
But Drake, UNI, ISU-Red, SIU, ISU-Blue, MSU, WSU, NMSU, and SHSU would in his scenario.
It really doesn't matter. This plan is a pipe dream of SV. He must stay up all night to think of these scenarios. SiouxVolley is obsessed with getting NDSU in the Big Sky. He is trying to think of any possible way that the Summit and MVFC will disolve and NDSU will have no chioce but join the BSC.

Speaking of asking ESPN. I guess they have noticed some changes at NDSU football games:
Yet other UNI fans tweeted about how well they were treated by Bison fans at the game this weekend. Perhaps the UNI fan that was treated badly instigated it with bad behavior of there own? I think I may have heard of some Gopher hockey fans being treated poorly by UND hockey fans in the past. Hard to beleive you could find an unhappy fan of a losing team.

Santiago is just fine where he is at, many running backs more deserving of first and second team, ratelle and deluca are the ones snubbed in this stats class!
Santiago could have been 2nd team RB. But there are not 12 better LB's in the FCS than DeLuca. For him not to be on any of the top 3 teams is a joke and makes you wonder about this list.

Ball St is FBS and Muncie is not much better than Terre Haute. Ind St has more support than E Michigan, and E Mich hasn't been turned out of the MAC yet.
If the MVC and Wichita want to go FBS, there will take a couple of teams from Texas to enlarge their recruiting population for students and athletes. NDSU simply doesn't do crap for them. Wichita St has a lot of the same academic attributes as UND, namely aviation and entrepreneurial studies. The Koch brothers have pumped a lot of money into Wichita St and they will probably bankroll football too. Wichita St needs more programs in the MVC that are south (Lamar, Sam Houston, Incarnate Word, ORU, UTArlington, UALR will have to do) or west (like Denver, and NMSU), just like UND has a broad footprint west.
Eastern Michigan is stuck in the FBS in the MAC. If they were FCS today they wouldn't be contemplating a move up to FBS. They would probably move down if they could.
-
Then he should have just said so. A lot of our fans never really warmed up to him anyway.
As a ply by play guy, Michaels is head and shoulders better than Sweeney. And listening to him do a few Sioux FB games last year, you couldn't tell he was an NDSU guy.
-
why play for the bison over another G5 team? They have proven nothing at the FBS level because they have not played a full season. The bison are at the top of the FCS and therefore can get the best recruits at that level and sometime steal some good G5 level recruits. How do they not lose their advantage if they move up?
How about start with national recognition, facilities, game day atmosphere, coaching staff, etc. NDSU's football offices, film room, etc are better than most G5 schools. The gameday atmosphere at most G5 schools is more like most of the FCS than like NDSU's. Ask the ESPN annoucers that have done games in the Fargodome and at a MAC school and ask which atmosphere is better.

Indiana St has much more developed football revenue and more potential than La-Monroe, which has the smallest enrollment for a public FBS school. Indiana State will do whatever it takes to stay in the MVC. If it means they have to put up end zone portable bleachers for a time, it will be done.
We know it hurts bizon pride to be a non-valued member of the future MVC. Learn to deal with it now. Wichita St gets who and what they want in that conference, and they don't want to no bizon or anything Dakota.
Would you please share with us your connection to the commissioner of every D1 conference and every D1 athletic director in the country? Have you been to Terre Haute? I have many times, Have family there. There is NO support for ISU football. The city is a run down, boarded up slum with no money. Unless they can get Larry Bird to open his checkbook, which we hear he has not been willing to do for the football program.
Wichita State would really be happy being grouped with UT-A, Lamar and SHSU? You are kidding right? Wichita State would add FB and jump to the MWC before they would agree to this. MWC would be vastly superior in FB and superior in BB than a MVC without WSU, Creighton, etc.
-
Know some posters can't handle this, but here is how the MVC would handle going FBS:
MVC North
Drake
N Iowa
I'LL St
Bradley
S Ill
Loyola
Ind St
EvansvillE
MVC South
Mo St
Wichita St
Oral Roberts
Denver
UT-Arlington
NMSU
Sam Houston St
Lamar
MVC gets to nine FBS teams with WSU adding football, taking NMSU, upgrading Lamar and Sam Houston St
Every new team in the south would jump at the opportunity.
The Slummit would be decimated.
NDSU, SDSU, and USD have standing offers from the Big Sky, which will take its financially able teams to FBS.
Omaha and W Ill would have to beg the OVC. Omaha might get in the MVC if Evansville defects to the Horizon or OVC.
IUPUI and IPFW would get ASUN offers as a pair.
Yeah, Indiana State can't afford an FCS football team. They will NOT be going FBS anytime soon. They have no attendance in a horrible stadium in a run-down poor city with no support for their football program. You better try again SV.

Make free throws and you win. Simple.
Actually if both teams make free throws UND loses by double digits.
And as much time as Jones spends on the court, it is amazing he is able to finish games. He should be getting t'd up for being on the court, even when the ball is on UND's side of the court.

You you guys feel better? Feel like real experts now. Super clever? Like you've just inserted some relevance in your life? I'm hopeful you are all superstars in whatever part of life you may walk. Pathetic creatures many of you. Anonymously taking potshots like a real man. Yea, your boss might be making you eat a $hit sandwich, your wife might be ragging on you about not paying the cable bill or your kid might be flunking a math class but damnit, I am a real shot caller on a fan forum.
A few here I respect. JDub has good objective game. Most of ya, want nothing more than abject failure. It fills your life up with some kind of bizarre cause. That you matter somehow. You can deny it all you want. I know better. I know your type. Deep down, you want a rifle job against Bradley this weekend or NDSU the following. You could care less the impact it may have on some student-athletes. Why? Because you want to matter....on a fan forum.
Actually I think most of the critics would like someone competent to lead the UND mens basketball program. Someone that can develop the talent he recruits. Someone that doesn't throw his own players under the bus if a game doesn't turn out like the coach thinks it should. Someone that takes some responsibility if things don't go right. Someone that doesn't whine and cry and gets a commentator suspended because he said something the coach didn't like.
I think for the most part the critics want better for the student athletes in the program, and they don't see a competent leader of young men in Mr. Jones. Now go back to your penthouse, eat your steak and lobster, go to bed with your beautiful wife Kate Upton and have you chauffeur take you to work in the morning. It sounds like you have a perfect life we all should envy.

That escalated quickly.....
Yes it did, From a 5 point lead with 8 minutes to a 20 point final. The game was closer than the final score would indicate. It doesn't help that they don't have Kory Brown and Jacobson played only 4 minutes in the first half because of fouls. They aren't nearly deep enough to overcome that. When Brian Ishola is playing meaningful minutes in any games much less a game against a godd Big 12 team, you have problems.

That would be quite the pay cut. BTW, doesn't $42,000 sound kind of low for a full time assistant coach? I don't think there is anyway you get one with 8 years D1 experience at that pay level.
