  1. I agree.  TR's play calling gets pretty vanilla at times and gets us into trouble.  It really reminds me of some of the bad days when Vigen was OC and the play calling was not creative.  I was watching the game yesterday with a friend of mine who is a HS coach here in WYO and we both could see how TR was callling stuff in the 2nd half that looked like Vigen being too conservative with the Cowboys.  TR certainly learned from Vigen.

    It can be other than that.   Maybe it's  playing time.  That may get a kid to pick a higher FCS over FBS.  Just a lot of variables nothing ever says a kid will always pick the FBS over the FCS.

  3. Fast start by the Bison.  My wife just informed me that if this keeps up I will be able to scoop dog !@#$ in the back yard at the half.  We are getting the first major snow dump in Wyoming tomorrow.   

  4. I finally got to watch this one on ESPN 3.  After the Bison game I was tailgating in Laramie and freezing my ass off before the MWC Championship game so I couldn't see it live.  The collapse at the end of the 3rd and all of the 4th quarters was stunning.  But, some of the fans on here are way overboard ripping on kids and coaches on this.  Yes, the blocked put call was not very smart at that point in the game, but there were a lot of chances to urn things around after that.  Richmond hung on and evidently never lost confidence.  UND is incredibly improved after last year despite the loss. Maybe we can meet in the playoffs next year.  I would think that UND should be contending for the Big Sky title.

    By the way....when anyone in either of our fan bases starts yapping about how great outdoor football is and how we need bigger stadiums built for our teams and to make them outdoors.....they are full of !@#$.  Come sit in a December game in Laramie....at night.

  5. Congrats.  It looks like Bubba is starting to unwind the mess that Muss left behind.  It would sure be interesting to have a crystal ball and see what would have happened had Dale Lennon never left.  I still think Lennon is a much better coach than his record at Southern Illinois.

    Back on topic......

     

    should UND be disappointed they have not gathered the bandwagon fan base as NDSU has? I don't think we would want those kind of fans anyways. Will the bandwagon be there after some consecutive losing seasons? If you want a laugh just ask a bison fan who the coach of the bison was in the 90's? Majority of those bandwagoners could not answer that. I grew up playing hockey and football in ND and NDSU was never on my radar ( granted UND was on top then). Were their games even on TV? I'm tired of seeing dedicated UND alumni on Facebook wearing gold in frisco. Support your own damn team you traitors!

    Every team should want those bandwagon fans.   They buy tickets and put cash in the bank.   The fans of  these boards bitch about them.... But the bandwagoners generate cash.   They are a big reason why at the FCS level and above neither NDSU or UND will play FB outside.   The bandwagoners won't sit through the miserable weather at the end of the season..... I see it in Laramie and Ft.  Collins  all the time.

    Both teams clearly did improve during the season. Despite that improvement, UND was no closer to NDSU at the end of the season than it was in September.  If anything, the gap increased during the season.

    The team that played on Saturday looked very different from the team that got beat in Missoula.   I think that one area where there was huge growth was the defensive secondary.   All young guys that really improved.   It also seems that the strength and conditioning program is vital to building a team that can outlast the competition.

    And where will the money come from?  

    Exactly... And what conference footprint and what conference is calling us on the phone.   Answer is none.   All of these playoff games make for a great season finale for the fans.   I like that much better than one post season no name bowl game.
