You are correct, there have been some inflated expectations on this and other discussion forums since NDSU moved up and started having success right away. Our fans caught the fever from our friends to the south and we started dreaming a little too big too soon. But that's why we are fans, after all.

Look at you two sandbagging :) Seriously, though, I think most Sioux fans would have been happy to write NDSU off as an anomaly (though still would have been envious). However, that NDSU *and* SDSU became reasonably successful, ranked teams during their transitions suggested to me that the gap between the top of DII and I-AA wasn't as big as I thought (though I, admittedly, previously thought it was huge).

I do agree with your points about our team having entirely been recruited for D-II, and would add that we aren't yet feeling the recruiting effects of a massive increase in scholarships. There's certainly no guarantee that those will give UND similar success (UNC is a fine counterexample), but I don't think its unreasonable for fans to be hopefully and perhaps even optimistic about UND's future in FCS.

Coaches need to have a specific play or two ready to go... no need to burn a timeout.

Darnit - missed conversion!

But, the Sioux are making a game of it

Need a 3 and out..

I guess we will just have to win it with a TD. 7:10 left in the game.

2 pt conversion not successful.

Okay, so we need to just hold them and score another TD.

Great minds think alike. I think that is about the 3rd time you and I have almost identical posts at the same time. :)
