bincitysioux Posted November 1, 2014 Author Posted November 1, 2014 Anybody have any insight into the conference tiebreakers? It looks like a possibility that Poly and EWU could win out and end up with identical conference records. You could also throw MSU into that mix as well. I'd prefer Poly not be conference champs after getting blasted vs the bunnies. League Clarifies Football Tiebreaker When two or more Conference members are tied in the final Conference standings, the tie shall be broken for the purposes of determining the NCAA FCS automatic bid only, and shall be determined on the following basis: 1. Head-to-head competition. 2. Record against common SCHEDULED CONFERENCE opponents in descending order. 3. Record vs. common Conference opponents played as NON-CONFERENCE games in descending order. 4. Record against common NON-CONFERENCE opponents. 5. Sagarin Ratings. 6. Coin Flip </body> Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 Congrats NAU, you beat EWU you currently trail Weber 22-0 after the 1st quarter Quote
homer Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Mess on top on the Big Sky standings. 6 teams with one loss. Cal Poly is playing good football right now. Beat MSU last night. But I know, they lost at SDSU earlier in the year. Quote
MafiaMan Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Congrats NAU, you beat EWU you currently trail Weber 22-0 after the 1st quarter Apparently your post woke NAU up in the 2nd quarter! Quote

cberkas Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 The Bawl in the Wild game has had a Umpire take a helmet to the face and Montana State getting beaten 20-0. Quote
sprig Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 The Bawl in the Wild game has had a Umpire take a helmet to the face and Montana State getting beaten 20-0. Now 27-0. 4 int's by the cats qb in the first half. and now he fumbles for turnover #5 Quote

Mention CB Taubenheim - 3rd Team Kicker Adler - HM TE Garman - HM RB Pecosky - HM FB Cummings - HM DT Dranka - HM DE Ratelle - HM ILB Thought Ratelle should've been higher, but lots of LBs w/ higher tackle #'s. Rich was probably deserving of HM as well. Any others? Quote
geaux_sioux Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Siouxfootballinsider makes a good point: best defense in the league get 0 players on any teams. No respect yet in this league. We earn that next year. Quote
homer Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Pretty neat that Dranka got HM DE as a true freshman. Coaches recruited him in their months time. Him and Greely will be solid for us going forward. Especially if they can put on 15 lbs. each. Quote

Where the hell are Labat, Reineke, Ratelle, Reyes Just to name 4 more Ratelle did make HM, but, yes, should've been higher as the leader of one of the top D's in the league. Rich belongs at minimum HM as well. Sioux Football Insider had some interesting tweets on some selections... Cal-Poly, with their triple-option Offense, had 3 WR's make HM w/ 20, 16 & 14 catches each.... Quote
UND-FB-FAN Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Still no respect in league ran by three schools: Montana, Montana State, and EWU. In three years as a Big Sky member, UND has only beat one of those three once (Montana in 2012). Until that changes, UND shouldn't expect much. Next year, the goal for UND needs to be to improve and have a winning club, but also knock off the "respected 3" in order to make the playoffs and earn respect. 1 Quote
Hambone Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Personally, I would have had Ratelle 2nd team, Rich 3rd team, Reyes 3rd team (might be a stretch, but at least HM), Idowu and Tillman both a tweener between 3rd team/HM. Also, I think if Hinojosa has a full year without injury he's at least HM. Very happy for Dranka - coming into the year he was one that I thought for sure was a redshirt to get size and could maybe start making an impact in a couple years. The fact MSU defense got 6 players on the top 3 teams is VERY laughable (as well as the Cal Poly receivers). Next year the defense takes another big step forward and we own that listing Quote

geaux_sioux Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 UND 6th and MSU 13th for pass defense. Wow. You should've included that too. Quote
geaux_sioux Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Carr also had a good season. Probably better than anyone thought. 68 tackles and 7 pbu 4tfl 2 ff. Quote
Feff Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Considering the support (or lack thereof) the defense got from the offense throughout the season, those stats are incredibly. The defense was really, really good and it's a crime that more players weren't given the recognition they deserved. Quote
Siouxperfan7 Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Considering the support (or lack thereof) the defense got from the offense throughout the season, those stats are incredibly. The defense was really, really good and it's a crime that more players weren't given the recognition they deserved. It all starts with defense. Give your offense a chance to win the game. Didn't have may of those opportunites last year. This year was a different story. Our defense will only get better next year. Our offense can only get better with guys returning from injury. Quote
geaux_sioux Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 NDSU also struggled to get players on all whatever lists until after their first FCS title. Quote
