In other news, my covid antibodies came back positive (non-FDA approved test with specificity 93-100%), indicating that my diagnostic test was a false negative. I was fairly certain I had it, since I had extremely labored and painful breathing for about two weeks plus total exhaustion, and obviously I had plenty of exposure risks. No cough, no fever. Unfortunately, I still can't donate convalescent plasma since they require both a positive diagnostic test and a positive antibody test.
Do they test the ability of donor plasma to neutralize virus COVID in culture before administering it to patients where you are at or do they rely on ELISAs alone to confirm the presence of anti-COVID antibodies in donors?

I’d like for there to be a scientific consensus here. I hear mixed responses with a partisan tone each way in the reporting around this. (Not from you Keikla, I mean in media)
anecdotally, India, which has cities more densely populated than NYC has a death rate per million of 0.9...coincidence that anti-malarials are pervasive? I don’t have the data to answer that.
This article does a decent job of explaining the politicization of hydroxychloroquine

In addition to football, is a coach's job to also teach sportsmanship and gentlemanly play?
Would you say the sportsmanlike, or gentlemanly, play was made in that case?
Was Lennon sportsmanlike/gentlemanly when UND ran a fake punt up 34-0 against CWU or when UND ran a fake field goal while beating SCSU by 28?

nice catch...
NDSU has 16 sports (Indoor and Outdoor track count as two total), the FBS requirement is 16, the DI/FCS requirement is 14

Against 3 common opponents, USD did much better than UND (who had Studsrud in all 3 games)
UND: Drake (H) W, 21-18, UC-Davis (H), W 31-24, @NDSU L, 9-34
USD: Drake (H), W 52-0, @UC-Davis, W 27-17, @ NDSU, W, 24-21

The current system has been pretty good to the Big Sky. The Big Sky has not won a non-conference playoff road game since 2008, but has lost 9 non-conference playoff home games since then. In that same timespan the MVFC has 10 non-conf road playoff wins and 3 home non-conf playoff losses.
The Big Sky's biggest problem is that only 2 of the current 13 teams have made a deep playoff run in the last 30 years.

I see Kolpack wrote another pump piece about the Summit RPI. Problem is he pretty much lied about the numbers.
The Summit was ranked #12 overall when he tweeted yesterday and are still #12 today when he published the article. He claims they were #10.

He says the Summit has "6 teams in the Top 151 as of Wednesday". NDSU is the sixth team at #155 as of Wednesdays rankings.
The Summit league is #10 according to CBS who pays a lot of money to broadcast basketball

I live in Fargo and have been to a number of NDSU football games. 20,000 is the exception, not the rule. They have had good attendance the past few years, but when they were 3-8, they were lucky if they had 10,000 per game.
NDSU's lowest attendance during the 3-8 2009 season was 14,301 for the season ending game (Average attendance was 16,555). NDSU's last sub 10,000 game was in 2003 as a DII school

Looks like test scores are pretty similar, if not better at Central

Bison Championship seasons, zero road victories and counting!! No one with a brain considers neutral site games road games. We are beating a dead horse on this point.
The last Big Sky road playoff win, was in 2008- they have lost 8 home playoff games during that stretch.
During the same time frame the MVFC has 6 road playoff wins and 2 home playoff losses.

Indiana State through, Idaho State stays home. Help me understand that one.
Idaho State was 0-2 versus FBS, 0-2 versus playoff teams and played two DII schools.
Indiana State was 1-1 versus FBS, 2-3 versus playoff teams and played an all DI schedule.
The committee values quality wins, IndSt had 3, IdSt had 0

With a rushing defense like that I wish we could play SDSU this year and see how we fair against Zenner and the vaunted MVFC rushing.
Looks like about 235 yards allowed against Missouri State

I would be surprised if NDSU/AES got more than 4-5 million a year in non competitive USDA money. There is a lot more money in basic medical research and clinical research/trials.

EDIT: Also, nobody is saying the slummit is an especially bad conference (talent-wise), just that the Big Sky is more competitive and a better overall conference.
Big Sky went 0-3 in the CIT
Summit is 2-0 so far in the CIT

The truth is that the Summit is very top heavy. The Big Sky is much more competetive throughout. The Summit gets an inflated RPI comparatively to the Big Sky because the Big Sky has many more members, and plays many more conference games against one another.
The Summit has a better RPI because it had a much better non-conf record and non-conf RPI. If the Big Sky had not done so poorly in non-conf, playing so many conference games would not hurt their RPI.

According to ESPN, Sac St (#7) and UND (#12) are two of most inconsistent teams in DI men's basketball (351 total teams).

Maybe the Cowboys should move down to FCS when Idaho finally sees the light and moves down themselves.
The 190k is probably university general fund money. Looks like he made 1.2M total

Yes. NDSU guys. Skyberg was a 4 year starter from 95-98. He's the one about 600 yards behind Kleinsasser in the video of the "catch".
Walter was part-time starter at cb from 02-05.
I don't think McKinnon was ever a starter but played a lot at lb in the mid-90's.
This is all from memory so I may be off in the details some.
Where's Bison06 when you need him?
McKinnon started

SDSU is garbage, overrated. Their supposedly tough MVFC defense sucks.
Probably why SDSU is 0-2 at home versus the MVFC, and 1-0 on the road versus the BSC.

I am guessing most places are not setup to test convalescent plasma in culture (no BSL3). A preliminary matched control study in NY appears to show that 80% of convalescent plasma recipients survive, but plasma does not work after intubation (https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.05.20.20102236v1.full.pdf).
