They do exist.

The butt-hurt is strong with these rubes.

The game is also two weeks away, not one week, so some non-season ticket holder fans will likely put off getting their tickets until later.

You just posted several of the sorry a$$ excuses that have been used by people to explain the poor attendance at our FB games (even our very important FB games) over the years. And I refuse to accept any of them. ZERO excuse we shouldn't have 8,000 to 10,000 for this game. Z-E-R-O

I like flying under the radar; being hyped just puts a big target on your back.

If you really believe that we would be talking about hosting an FCS playoff game as the #7 seed with Mussman still at the helm, then you are living in a different sports world than most of us.

Considering you were one of the posters on here lobbying for Mussman to keep his job, this comment isn't worth as much as you think it is.

This game will be on national cable television, so we won't want a bunch of empty seats.

The game vs. Montana was against a weak Griz team. The game vs. USD was exciting, but it also prolonged the Mussman regime.

I think any game in the Mussman era should be disqualified from consideration.

It had better be at least 8,000, with a good shot at 10,000+. No reason not to make this game a priority.

I like how you think!!!

Outrageous! They need to come up with a Pairwise-style rating system for FCS so that actual numbers are used instead of giving certain teams auto-bids for being 6-5 every year. Something smells fishy with that.

This!!! Right here!!! ZERO EXCUSE to not get FB playoff tickets because MH is playing one game in Madison Square Garden. Z-E-R-O. Non-attendees better come up with better excuses than that.

I sure am not normal, never have been and never will be.

Har, har, har, that is pretty good!!! Good to see the team break out of that slump. Time to go grab a road sweep!

And it is important to point out that the Slummit is NOT a "bus league", despite what some people will try to tell you. The distances are shorter than the Big Sky, but there still is significant travel involved outside of the Dakota schools. The days of a true "bus league" ended when the NCC did.

I am in Brainerd visiting my girlfriend and the roads are not good here. Talked to someone in town for youth hockey tomorrow and the roads are really bad from the Cities to Brainerd. Thankfully, I don't have to go anywhere until Sunday.

I think we would get the Big Sky auto-bid. Beyond that, I am not sure.

Go back to Bisonville and AGS. We don't care what you think.

Let us hope we get into the Top 8 and we won't have to worry about it.

Is Montana a playoff team this year? They are not as dominant as they usually are this season.

Your insecurity is showing my friend.

I have said this before and I will say it again: If we can't afford to do what it takes to run this athletic department as a Division I athletic department (and making sure we host a playoff game as the #9 seed is one example), then we should have stayed in Division II. We have to make a statement that we are serious about being a national player in FCS football. Also, these kids deserve a home playoff game with what they have done this season. We need to give them every edge we can. Here is Faison's e-mail address. Please let him know how important this is for the FB program and the entire campus, BRIAN.FAISON@und.edu

Shhhhh, be careful or you'll be accused of being "unrealistic"!
