FSSD

Here is a link to the press conference from NDSU tonight: http://www.grandforksherald.com/event/article/id/246170/group/News/ It is described as the following: A 15-paragraph statement by the university president, an apology by the athletic director and the suspension of the starting running back by the head coach culminated a day that started with 10 North Dakota State football players in a courtroom. Am I missing something? When I listen to the AD I don't hear an apology. As a parent, when I ask my children to apologize for something they did wrong. I pay close attention to what they say making sure that it is an apology. Because, I think it is an important step for their development. Many times I have to work with my youngest daughter to make sure it is an apology versus an excuse. But, when I listen to the AD - I don't hear an apology. I only hear an excuse. Am I the only one that hears it this way.. time clip - 7:00 to 8:13 is when the AD is supposed to apologize.

The impacts players for UND need to make plays. They were in position last week and it didn't happen for whatever reason. They need to clean it up: Over thrown balls down field Drop passes Missed blocks - just wow in this department. Missed INT Missed tackles - we are talking about unblocked LBs missing the RB so bad they would not be down in a game of two hand touch.

I do agree that Poly needs to get the QB, but I think the key stat is 3rd down conversions. Poly is all about ball control and eating up the clock. UND needs to get Poly off the field when they have 3rd and 3 or 3rd and 4. If they do, I think UND wins.

I hear ya..

Johnny missed the point... UNDvince97-01 was calling out the fact that NDSU's conferences keep changing names to sound more important or to distance itself from its past versus a school being in multiple conferences for different sports.

He thought Notre Dame dropped down to FCS.. he is working on the story right now about how the Golden Domers are afraid to visit Fargo in the 2 for 1 Gene has sent to South Bend. Of course that story won't be finished until he gets another story out about all the positive things FU students athletes do in the community.

So you are saying Fargo University - I like it hope you don't mind when I say FU.

If UND finishes 8-3 - they will be a playoff team.

I took a quick look at the remaining schedule and at this weeks Sagarin ratings. The remaining schedule is great with 4 of the 6 at home. Grand Forks has got to come out and enjoy UND/Big Sky football. http://www.usatoday....garin/fbt12.htm 6) Eastern Washington 2-1 Oct 6th @EWU 10) Cal Poly 3-0 - Sept 29th @ GF 15) Montana 2-2 - Oct 20th @ GF 20) Northern Arizona 3-1 - Oct 13th @ GF 26) Southern Utah 2-2 - Noc 3rd @ GF 27) Montana St 4-0 - Oct 27th @ MSU Last game of the year @UNC.. 17) North Dakota 3-1 NOTE: I used the PREDICTOR score for the ranking order.

The defense is awful and I am afraid to think of what Poly is going to do next week. But, I will be in stands to watch - it is going to be ugly.

I can not get the EWU/Weber game - I get a blank screen.

PSU rolling they are doing anything that they want right now 14-3. SUU defense looks very questionable right now.

I assume that you mean Brookings now that the Slummit League is in charge of school names. I wonder if we will get Fargo or Vermillion on the schedule?

I would like to see the D-line take control of the line of scrimmage.. or I should say the front 7 to control the line

PSU 7 SUU 0 - they cut right through SUU D.... those two clowns are now looking for people they know in the stands...

Hey anyone watching the PSU/SUU game on Big Sky TV - they have a couple college students talking over the broadcast and they have no idea that they are going out over the air.. they are funny couple AV geeks talking football complete with cheering - oh my...

http://www.americaon...s.com/login.asp On the RHS they have a list of the applications required. Then launch the demo.. make sure that works. After that I believe that you have to purchase a season pass. Purchase the season pass (NOTE: is it free) and then the viewer should show up.

Some very good games this week. Looking forward to watch several Big Sky games today on http://www.americaonesports.com/login.asp If you have not used this before, I recommend that you create your login and update your computer with appropriate application about 30 min before game time.

No defense for Lakes - I have received two very questionable PMs from him. NOT GOOD.

Ah... just more examples of Bison fans. In this case they happen to like Sioux hockey - given enough time the behavior will improve. They actually have a chance don't hold it against them.

exactly - you really have no idea what is going to happen during replay reviews.

They have a nice preview at the Sac message board site.. http://hornets.bigskyfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1760&p=16810#p16810 Plus, this site has some nice info.. http://sacstatesports.com/

No it does not, I watched a reply during the NIU game when they overturned a UND TD and you could not see the ball when the ball carrier went into the line. What did they do - overturned the ruling on the field of TD.

I agree and this week is a big game.. they need to get back on a winning track. I looked at Big Sky TV for this weekend and they 5 games and 4 games going at the same time at 6:00 pm including Sac St and UND. I still can not believe that SDSU did not have a streaming?

I thought that it was no catch. It did not look like he had control of the ball until his left knee touched. Just a quick note to all Bison fans posting during football games. Please keep the game thread about the game.
