It's looking like he's going to lose the popular vote by 2 million votes and in his first 9 days he's appointed a white nationalist as his chief strategist, an Islamophobe who most in the national security establishment view as a likely Russian spy as his national security advisor, and had a surrogate go on TV and cite the internment of Japanese citizens during WWII as a good historical precedent for setting up a national registry of Muslims. It seems like the concerns of these protestors are much more legitimate than a bunch of white guys taking over a wildlife refuge because they don't want to pay grazing fees.
Need some hot cocoa and some play-doh? Considering the contributions to America (or lack there of) from a large portion of the democratic voting base I don't give a rip about the popular vote!!

I'm confident we'll get the 8 seed, but say we don't, with this year being the first year the committee came out with weekly lists at the end of the year; does anyone else think we would be set up with a home game since it would basically be public knowledge that we are the 9 seed and it would look bad on the committee to send us on the road? Maybe I'm giving the committee too much credit but that's my thought process.
I am with you. It would look bad to put the #9, #10, #11, #12 seed on the road. For the most part, these guys should know enough to not let it happen.

But it is the liberal side so not all that surprising.
Kids should have to pay out of pocket for crap like this.

Did the selection committee say they are going to seed 9 - 24? If we end up 9 aren't we looking at a team currently around 20 - 26 in the polls?
And there sits Montana and UNI. Cal Poly, too but we played them in the regular season.
Sunday is going to be intense!!

Proper trolling requires a certain touch. Your trolling is like trying to do brain surgery with a butchers knife.
Totally agree. Red Pepper 19 is the JV of Trolling. Maybe take some time off, regroup, get some better materials, prepare better.......

Thanks jdub. Doing a little math. If we got 10,000 fans at $15 a ticket that would be $150,000 x 75% equals $112,500. I am wondering what people think UND should have bid for the first round game. I imagine there could have been some reaching out for a corporate sponsorship?? Could UND afford a $200,000 bid??
Broken record here - UND will place a bid but private supporters can pledge funds to increase the bid. If a private donor writes a check for $1 Million (exaggerated) we would be guaranteed a home game. Montana is a high bidder historically based on attendance, they don't need private funds. I think UND and SDSU hold similar hands, so much depends on the turn and the river, private pledges.

Any doubt?
Um yeah. I'd put Beau Baldwin above Bubba. And that's not just a homer pick. This is Beau's best coaching season to date at EWU. Double digit win season breaking in a new QB. Likely Big Sky Championship (co). The best FCS vs FBS win of any team in the nation (WSU who is probably the best team in the Pac 12 which is a power 5 conference) and he big-time exceeded expectation as EWU was picked to finish 4th or 5th in Big Sky coming off a season with no playoffs.No doubt Bubba has done a great job this year for you all, but it's not a slam dunk in his favor.
Of course you are going to homer pick Beau and we'll homer pick Bubba. I think Bubba gets it based on EWU having a recent track record of success while UND had a break out year and that's a more interesting story. Just my read on it. To be Honest, this honor means very little to Bubba in the grand scheme of things. Best of Luck in the play-offs.

Well I do remember one MVFC team playing NDSU for the title. So I guess somebody else did something. If the committee had bracketed properly last year it may have happened again.
That said the league is a bit down this year. Still good but not as deep. Also I would hardly say SDSU has dominated the league, they've been on a similar level of UNI and ISUR.
What's the injury report on SU? I have heard RB's are dinged. A good d-line guy was lost, and even us UND guys know about DeLuca, he is fun to watch. Is your left tackle blocking anyone, yet, he sure wasn't game #1.
Thanks-

I thought Holm should of taken 1-2 more steps to try and punch the ball out thru the end zone instead of diving at the 10??? That's what I was thinking when he was chasing him down.

Are we becoming a 'darling' to the pollsters?? The momentum seems to be building and peaked at 7 or 8? I think we can represent that spot well but need to get healthy to do so. AJ on the line, Stanley at WR, our QB, Seibel (hurt ego), Taj, even Santiago is a bit banged up as I chatted with him after the game.

Our receivers didn't seem to be any more open in the 4th quarter than the first three. Studs just decided to trust and throw at them and we went up and got the ball. There were many completions that the defense was right on us.
NAU receivers caught a lot of balls in traffic, too, just shows that's part of the game. It will be fun watching our young WR's bulk up a little.

NDSU Quality wins
#12 SDSU
#14 Charleston Southern
#15 Youngstown State
#19 Western Illinois
EW Quality Wins
#17 Montana
#20 Cal Poly
I'm not seeing much to warrant them having a higher seed.
EW has a better quality loss vs. NDSU......you don't know how this works, yet??

I've watched plenty of FCS football just not a lot coming from the Alerus Center despite having graduated from UND.
And a sell-out Bison Bandwagoner.....that didn't take long to come out! You probably liked the Vikings for the 1st few weeks in the NFL, too.

We just had a game that got people talking. My mom went to the hockey game after and commented today about how much of a let down it was after the football game was so crazy. I think more experiences like this will help us get the next 2000/ game. Hopefully for the playoffs if we get a home game.
For sure- the ladies in our crew at the football game basically said the same thing......which I responded, "duh".

Just think if they didn't have to face Duluth or Denver we might not be having this conversation right now
Stick to something you pretend to know something about, hockey.

Man, this thread was hilarious to read. I hope everyone is safe, no tall buildings to jump off into the 3rd quarter.
NAU was picked to win the BSC cause they are frick'n talented, their coaching staff is top notch, and schematically their offense is hard to play against. Their system throws the best timing routes in the league. The QB throws an out and their WR isn't even in his break. Their o-line was legit, really good, only 4 sacks on the year. NAU defense watched a lot of film, they were well prepared. The only weakness NAU had was their secondary and even though that isn't our strength, WR, we really started executing. What a gritty win!!

I am thinking there is a pretty good chance the NAU game will have no bearing on who we play in the first round of the playoffs. Win or lose, we probably play sdsu with the winner going to Fargo. Sounds D's ridiculous, but that's what you get with regionalization.
That's very possible, win/lose/draw.
For the 1st round take out the top 8 and rank the remaining teams 1-16. UND vs. SDSU could be 1 vrs 2 or something similar, and that makes no sense. The conference reps need to make their case against regionalization.

So confused- I asked a guy, huge Bison supporter, played for SU a year or two, successful and all around good guy. This is his response-
"The guy is an idiot I think the back says something like Sioux suck hawks. I have told him a couple weeks ago to move on and makes him look dumb"

I thought I read that bids were due earlier in the year. If true, Saturdays attendance shouldn't affect the bid amount.

I can't imagine it would affect recruiting. I'm sure if you tell any recruit that if he comes to the University of North Dakota he'll be able to play against schools like Southern Illinois, Illinois State, Missouri State, Youngstown State, Western Illinois, USD, SDSU, Northern Iowa, NDSU and that he'll be able to travel to some of the most scenic cities in the upper Midwest like Macomb, Brookings, Carbondale, Cedar Falls, Springfield, Vermillion, Normal, Youngstown & Fargo.....He'll say "wow, where do I sign up."
This, as opposed to, having to try and sell a recruit on playing against schools like the University of Montana, Montana State, Eastern Washington University, Sacramento State, Idaho State, Portland State, University of California-Davis, Cal Poly University, Southern Utah, Weber State, Northern Colorado, Northern Arizona, and soon the University of Idaho and he'll have to fly to destinations like Portland, OR; Missoula, Cheney, WA; Davis, CA; Pocatello, Bozeman, Flagstaff, AZ; Greeley, CO; Sacramento and San Luis Obispo, CA. There's no question that Youngstown, Brookings, Vermillion, Normal and Fargo are going to win out every time.
And then, if you're the University of North Dakota president, why would you ever want to be associated with other institutions that have top medical, engineering and law schools when you can hook up with schools that offer some of the top "junior college" type academic programs in the country?
I suspect that the recruits rated as the #2 class in the Big Sky signed up with Bubba because they knew these amazing changes were on the horizon and they are all pumped that they don't have to board a plane to warm weather locations in Arizona and California like San Luis Obispo or look at that big "M" on the mountains overlooking the 25,000 fans in the seats of Washington-Grizzly stadium.
This would be like University of Minnesota football leaving the Big 10 so they can take bus trips to play the MNSCU schools.
I am against the grain, too. From a student athlete perspective I'd rather play in the Big Sky.

Its sucks, but if it were santiago or reyes, I'd still want harsh punishment. I'd just be more disappointed in what we would lose on the field. I don't care who you are, what sport or position you play, I have more respect for the Blue.
My family has a lot of respect for the Blue. Look up 2 little girls, 6 & 5, that decided to forgo their birthday presents in place of a free will offering for officer Moszer's family. (over $500 raised)
Football players, in general, have a mean/aggressive streak. If they didn't, they'd be in swimming or soccer, or some other lame sport. I totally saw this happen back in the day. (mean/aggressive drunk) Most times the teammates take care of the situation, obviously in this case things got out of hand with the wrong dudes, the police. I am confident and will support what the coaches come up with.
