darell1976 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 LOL. Dan just resorted to defending how "strong" the D2 team is they scheduled. Now that is some classic all-time stuff right there. I am sure Dan defended the strength of Concorida-St. Paul and Arkansas-Monticello. Because the Bison play the only the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darell1976 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Yes,they they made it a rule just last week. It's called the "Bison/Beck rule". NDSU can schedule D11 State and not hurt their playoff chances and Bohl can suspend Travis Beck for a meaningless game and appear to be tough on violence. Funny how nothing was said about this rule until NDSU schedules a DII team. Is this like the tuck rule how it existed because of Tom Brady. Something kinda fishy about this?

homer Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Kind of like your hockey players? Ferris is a stronger team than your first game. Haha, classic post. So scheduling a D2 is now acceptable Dan? I think MSU screwed FU over with the late cancellation but Dan's post above can only be rivaled the the guy on BVille who said the NCAA changed the D2 counter rule specifically for FU. It must be fun in the world some of those guys live in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jheria Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 And how many national titles has NDSU won since moving up to the FCS....Zero! They won 2 playoff games since becoming eligible. You have beaten Kansas and Minnesota both had what 4 wins total. You crushed Central Michigan thats like beating a high ranking FCS team. The MAC is not exactly the SEC. You were #1 ranked for awhile during a season in transition didn't matter you weren't playoff eligible. Yes we had an off year last season but NDSU did a 3-8 also. You laugh at our D2/NAIA teams well does Arkansas-Montecello ring a bell or Condordia-St. Paul. Yes even NDSU played down to teams too. UND is looking at the future as well, our first goal is something NDSU wanted but didn't get...The Big Sky. Now we can concentrate on our second goal....a playoff berth. Still looking at the future and a playoff birth like 2011? Your Zero! is now 2 championships for NDSU. I'm guessing I will be able to bring this out for you again in 2015 and you'll still be concentrating on your second goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnboyND7 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 I dont think anyone is happy about the fact NDSU was forced to settle for Ferris State. The difference between this and some other teams who have scheduled D-II, is that we had a bigtime OOC game set up..this was a last resort.

Dagger Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 I wonder who Dan thinks has a tougher home schedule. UND or NDSU. I am sure he thinks NDSU,s schedule is tougher with those perennial powers Ferris and Delaware State coming to Fargo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siouxperfan7 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Most NDSU fans don't want to play UND...this guy's reason is down right funny!!! http://www.bisonville.com/forum/showthread.php?30410-NDSU-UND-matchup-in-15-and-17/page6 Fine don't play UND...enjoy Ferris State.

I imagine plenty of kids who were raised being casual UND fans are now NDSU fans simply because NDSU has been very good. I imagine plenty of casual fans switched allegiances especially if they like football. Hardcore fans....I can't imagine any becoming NDSU fans.

108498 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 I grew up a Sioux fan primarily attending Football and Basketball. At the time, hockey was something I watched on t.v or listened to on the radio. At this point, I will be returning to Grand Forks as a student, and I can tell you with out a doubt I live and breath for UND. I never thought for a second since my early childhood that NDSU was better. Just because UND may be struggeling lately while NDSU gans national attention with its two national titles and It's March Madness apperance doesn't mean the younger fans switch. Those who switch are never hard solid fans. When the Sioux (UND) rise those fans will be back. The solid fans who live for the green and black will never switch. If fans switched every time a team was good or bad neither one of the North Dakota school would have had a solid fan base in the late 90's early 2000's. If I recall right, We went about 6 straight seasons when the away team won games. That was during the years the two towns had subway bets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
108498 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Also I have run into many younger generation adults who say the lived in North Dakota and once followed the bison, but have turned towards the Sioux. Showing that, for every group of fans that switch from UND you also have those that move from NDSU to the Sioux. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bison Dan Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 LOL. Dan just resorted to defending how "strong" the D2 team is they scheduled. Now that is some classic all-time stuff right there. So you don't think that the top 20 DII teams would be better than Valparaiso who are 3-33 over the last 3 years? They're a counter. At least we didn't schedule some SD NAIA schools for sure wins - oh that's right you're only 2-1 against the NAIA..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record, the system is weighted so Valpo counts more than your mighty Ferris State does. I have never seen an FCS fan so proud of playing a D2 team. Good for you! P.S. - Awesome home schedule. Is it true that people are requesting to buy "First Half Only - Standing Room Only" tickets so they can beat the rush at halftime? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 With that home slate, there is a staggering amount riding on the AC having multiple home playoff games. Better not trip up in those conference road games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's right lets not move backwards playing DI UND...lets move forward playing DII Ferris State. :lol: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
