WYOBISONMAN

24-34. Womens Hockey was an excellent choice. I think that this year the Bison and Sioux fans are getting the opportunity to watch too much crappy football. Hell, maybe we should try something really kinky.....like swapping coaches........

Well.......all Sioux fans can smile and have a beer......Bison looked weak and crappy again. Lousy D.......poor judgement by Jose......it is all bad......Season is over. Baskeball anyone???

It is late enough in the day to make the switch to beer......Grain Belt Premium in a frosty mug......imported from Minnesota!

It is ugly over on Gopherhole.....LOL.....get this quote from RashoLives....... I started drinking at the beginning of the second half every time the gophers did something that I didn't understand... I'm out of liquor already

By the way.........if you guys want to watch the Bison game for free.......and cheer against us.....it is on this link at 2pm Central. Channel Surfing

You are right.....I just watched the replay. I tell you......God is surely not a Gopher!!!!!!

Unreal how horrid the Goofs are. Why was that D-back cocking off with the ball before getting in the endzone?!?!?!? What an incredible lack of discipline!

Well, sitting downstairs in the Man Cave. Screwdriver in hand and flipping between the Goofers/Purdue and Illinois/Michigan State. Thoughts.....Geez the Goofs look horrid once again (so does Purdue)....Pudue up 7-0....a nail has been pounded into Punky Brewster's coffin. Illinois/Michigan State......this one could be a dandy.....Illinois up 3-0 (they should be up 7-0). Can Illinois outlast Michigan State?? Maybe an upset in the making. At 2pm I gotta run the computer feed on the Bison through my plasma tv.....ugh.....I hate not watching in HD! I have decided that my other TVs in the house need to be switched to HD, but then Directv is gonna screw me on buying HD receivers... The Man Cave is known as the Grain Belt Bar here in Western WYO......the only place in the state you can always get a cold Grain Belt Premium!

Wow.......what a stupid statement indeed.

Well, I have decided that when the single game tickets go on sale I will be buying! This will be an event and I am sure the crowd will be wild. It will also be interesting to see it played on a neutral floor. Now the only question remaining is how damn cold will it be in the RR Valley for that game. But......remember......I don't give a damn about the rivalry.........

For sure UND and NDSU need to be on the high side of FCS payrolls, but our schools will still be a stepping stone to bigger and better. Tim Miles left to coach BB at Colorado State for about 4x what he was getting at NDSU. And........if he has success at CSU.....a bigger school will take him. I don't like it, but unfortunately neither school will ever be able to compete with the BCS schools, and as such, our best coaches will always be recruited away. By the way..............that $450,000 for Georgia Southern really shocked me!

Does anyone know what the market is for FCS coaches? I know Bohl is on the high side.

Bill, while I respect your right to advocate your position, I doubt that this will ever get enough sigs to even make the ballot ...... and if it does I would surely wager that this idea will see one of the largest defeats in the history of ballot measures. Bill.....it is pretty damn off the wall.....

LOL! That is funny....

Does anyone know what went on with the officiating to make him say that? I can't imagine a statement like that unless there was something pretty bad that happened.

You can't fault Lennon for moving. He went to an established program for more money. In the coaching world it is all about "what have you done for me lately". I sure bet Bohl is thinking he made a mistake by not moving from NDSU when we had those two one loss seasons. A couple bad seasons later and many were calling for his head. I think changing coaches is very traumatic for a program, although it is surely needed at times. But, many times, by switching coaches you pretty much assure a transition of at least 3 years until you can start to see what he/she has done for the program and how that persons recruits are performing. Coaching changes are big decisions with long term impacts. IMHO I think your situation at UND probably doesn't warrant Muss being fired as this is only his 3rd season. Next season he probably ought to be on the hotseat. Now, take the Punky Brewster situation at Minnesota. There is a guy that definitely ought to be gone. He is truely terrible.

Now let's be honest Craig Bohl would not get my vote for this......are you guys still voting for Muss for Coach of the Year?

From what I saw it seemed like the secondary was out of position a good bit. I am not sure if it was a speed issue or just flat missing assignments.

It does sound like UND is plagued with some key injuries though. There is nothing that can screw up a season like injuries creating some weak spots that another team can exploit.

Are there many fans going down to this one It could be a hell of a game. TV on this one? Time? I am going to be in Vegas and would like to see if I could find it on TV at a sports book.....or spors bar. (The sports bar option will cost me less money).

Nick didn't have what is needed to compete day in and day out in the MVFC. But, Bohl surely demonstrated shortcomings too. Especially in recruiting and retention. I does seem that some of the Bohl issues may well be rectified.

I would appear that many had restocked! Patients from a significant portion of the fan base was running pretty short.

If Bohl had played Jose at QB and USD would have beat NDSU..........required.

I always used to be a big yapper about how football ought to be played outside and that indoor football kills the atmosphere....etc. Now that I am knocking on age 50, I have to say it is damn nice to go into the Fargodome after a cold afternoon of tailgating. I suspect if FB was played outside in Fargo it would cut attendance between 33%-40%.

Some of the Bison fans are bitching about it. Too small, etc. But the bottom line is you have to do what is financially realistic and it is one hell of an improvement over the existing facility. From a home court advantage perspective, it is much better to have a crowd of 3,500 in a 5,700 seat facility rather than an 8,000 seat facility. I for one think it is fine....and surely overdue. One question.....what does the Betty seat for BB and is it an "arena" type setting and not a fieldhouse?
