  1. NDSU was offered this game last year and turned it down due to having the Iowa State game the next week. I wouldn't call it having a love affair with the Big Sky.

     

    NDSU and Montana are two of the elite programs in the FCS which is why this particular game is being televised.

  2. Marshall wasn't #3 last week and moved up just 2 spots. Big difference. If NDSU was #3 and CC was #1 and lost you would be outraged if they stayed #1. You guys cry over everything.

    The difference is Marshall would never be #3 in the FBS polls. Those voting would never be that dumb to think they were the third best team in the FBS, just because they are undefeated.

    Coastal will end up with a top 4 seed based on final rankings. It is a joke and better more deserving teams will get screwed.

  3. The polls were just fine for you until your team wasn't on top of them!

    I always thought Coastal being ranked that high was a joke. EWU gets beat by a PAC 12 team by what, a point and gets beat by a ranked FCS team by 2 points, with their star QB out, but somehow Coastal Carolina, who have played nobody, is ranked higher. LMAO.

    Coastal should maybe be ranked around 15. Whatever Harvard is at, right around there.

  4. In the FBS there are three undefeated teams, FSU, Miss. State and Marshall. Marshall is ranked 21st in the AP poll. There are 18 teams with a loss or a few losses between FSU and Marshall. If FSU and Miss. State lose and Marshall ends up undefeated, would they deserve to be the #1 team in FBS, just because they are undefeated?

    Marshall and Coastal Carolina are identical situations. Both are undefeated but play the lowest level of competition in their division. Marshall is ranked #21 but Coastal is #1. It is a joke.

  5. In that case Coastal is better than NDSU since they are still undefeated.

    NDSU going 9-1 with their schedule is far far more impressive than beating 10 teams not ranked.

    If Alabama wins out and ends up with 1 loss, playing in the SEC, do you think that would be harder and more impressive than Marshall going undefeated in Conference USA?

    This is why the FCS polls are a joke. Half these writers don't even know who the teams are let alone what playing quality opponents even means. Hell only a few years ago, voters were still screwing up and giving UND #1 votes because they were confused by the two schools.

  6. What is funny about the polls is that #1, #2, and #3 have a combined 4 wins over top 25 teams and no wins over FBS teams. NDSU alone has 4 wins over top 25 FCS teams and a win over an FBS team from a power 5 school. Hell Coastal has not ever played a ranked team the entire year.

    If they had played the schedule NDSU had just played, I would be incredibly surprised if any of these teams were sitting at 9-1 right now. I understand NDSU played a bad game and deserve to drop but to say Coastal at #2 is a better team than NDSU? Give me a break.

    I would bet the house on EWU or NDSU over any of these jokers.

  7. I expected a few losses coming into this season, knowing how difficult our schedule was.  Despite the loss, I still think NDSU is the team to beat in the FCS this year. 

     

    It is hard getting beat as a fan though. It is something I have not had to think about on Sunday for over two calendar years. We can't all be as fortunate as UND fans and develop the tolerance to deal with it on a weekly basis. 

  8. Did it make ESPN?  I hope so....just so those gameday f*cks can troll around to some other school to find a new weird niche-home to set up their carnival freak show....watch how fast they lose interest in you now that you've lost....magical BiSOOOO(what happened?) Nation? ???

     

    f*ck you - and I'll say that quietly so i don't wake up Corso.  (but still F*CK you - for personal reasons:-))  

     

    Jealous maybe?

     

    Maybe UND will go on a historic run winning 3 FCS national championships in a row, 5 games in a row over FBS teams, and ride a 33 win steak and Gameday will may you the new weird niche home to set up shop. 

  9. Ding dong the witch is dead.

     

    Last time I checked NDSU will be playing in the playoffs this year.

     

    They lost in both 2011 and 2012 and won it all. 

     

    Incredibly hard to win 3 national championships in a row and not have a huge target on your back. 

  10. Which game is in the bars and restaurants across the state on Saturday? Online streaming of UND football? No, it is the NDSU game on public television.

     

    In terms of building young fans, fans who might one day be a recruit to a football program, I think NDSU being broadcasted on public television is a significant advantage.

  11. That wasn't the point was it. #1 team in the country, longest winning streak and empty seats prompting a Bison player to call them out on Twitter. I thought with your "rival" in town it wouldn't be a problem to show up instead 400 tickets went to the public.

     

    A lot of students are getting bored watching an ass kicking over and over every weekend. They are spoiled.

     

    But to try to say UND and NDSU have the same problem with student support.....come on man. Even with a few less kids showing up, NDSU has a top 5 student attendance year in and year out in the FCS. 

  12. NDSU is having the same problem as UND right now with students not showing up or staying at the game. Hopefully the UND-NDSU game will make everyone stay.

     

    Lol.....NDSU is getting twice the students to their games than UND is these days. Hell, the average number of students who show up for NDSU games is about half of what are showing up in the entire Alerus center these days. 

  13. Me and Wildfan already proved your Minnesota, UND hockey question wrong so this is what you come up with?

    You get out much?

    You've been posting here nonstop for three straight days.

    I don't think you did. I have seen plenty of NDSU alumni support and cheer for UND hockey, but never have I seen NDSU alumni cheer for UND football to the lengths of which I see UND alumni cheering for NDSU.

    True rivalries, Auburn/Alabama, Michigan/Ohio State, Duke/NorthCarolina do not have a alumni cheering for the other team in a sport each program has.

    I showed this to my friend who went to Montana State. For a long time UM was the show in the state of Montana. I asked him if he or anyone he knows spent their Saturdays watching the Grizz, cheering for the Grizz, tailgating wearing Grizz gear, or traveling to watch their national championship games. His response was you are seriously asking me that Fing question?

  14. Isn't that what I just said. I know its crazy for you but there are infact UND fans who cheer for both football teams.

    I guess that one went right over your head. Your coworker lives in Fargo, so not a big deal he goes to Bison football games even if he did graduate from NDSU.

    Those NDSU fans you know probably live in Fargo. So why would they drive to GF to watch a UND football game?

    Where did I say I live or my co worker live in Fargo or even close to Fargo? We don't.

    I know there are UND fans who cheer for both teams...a lot of them. That is why it isn't a true rivalry anymore.

    I bet their are a lot of UND alumni living in Minneapolis who go to UM hockey games, wearing UM hockey gear, cheering for UM.....lmfao!

  15. By that argument there is no rivalries in the nation. Because it seems like every town you are in the majority of people will go to the local game.

    How many Minnesota alumni, living in GF, do you see showing up to UND hockey games dressed in UND gear cheering for UND hockey?

    Of all the ridiculous crazy arguments I have heard, this takes the cake!
