JohnboyND7 Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Groan. Have you seen Notre Dame and Michigan State play the past few weeks? This game will be a slog-fest of punts or else it'll be a 47-44 game. MSU's offense can't score a TD to save its life and Notre Dame's defense apparently needs to wake up the echoes of dead internet girlfriends to stop somebody... Its generally a good game regardless of records, and your point goes to show that if thats the biggest game this week, that their isn't much going on in the big scheme of football this week. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Don't kid yourself. If NDSU hadn't beat K-State, college gameday is probably in Utah for the Holy War. Back to back NCs with the K-State, the defending B12 champs, win is why they are in Fargo as we speak...and deservedly so IMO. Quote
Shawn-O Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Sounds like Tom Rinaldi was quickly called on the carpet for the BYE-sin..bye-ZUN thing. Labeled an "ignoramous" as he put it... Quote

And this coming from critics who keep a tooth pick tucked behind one of their ears, have a "dress" pair of cowboy boots, and use Copenhagen as an after dinner mint! Quote
Vegas_Sioux Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 You guys do know it's the pre game show only the game isn't even on tv it's on ESPN 3 Quote
Shawn-O Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 You guys do know it's the pre game show only the game isn't even on tv it's on ESPN 3 Still a great thing for them. Once in a lifetime exposure for their university and program. Quote
Matt Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 You guys do know it's the pre game show only the game isn't even on tv it's on ESPN 3 And in ND/NW MN on KVLY Quote
MafiaMan Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Still a great thing for them. Once in a lifetime exposure for their university and program. Right! ESPN College Game Day is an awesome show...Fargo will be going crazy during the pre-game show. I wonder what headgear Lee Corso is going to put on...hmnnnn...I gave a guess... 1 Quote
George M. Bluth Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 I'm not sure what all this gibber-gabber back and forth is all about. NDSU has been killing it recently in FBS and it's super cool that Game Day will be there. It doesn't mean they're any less stupid. You just have to give it up to them this week because they've earned this attention and are bringing something awesome that people from all over the state can take pride in. Just because they're too baby to play UND in football doesn't mean we can't give it up for them for just one week. If I weren't living in Minneapolis and going to see the Gophers on Saturday, I'd consider going to Fargo just to see the pre-game. Sounds like a great weekend for ND football! Quote
BobIwabuchiFan Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 I've heard the ND weather plans a balmy 40°F start at 8am and warming in the afternoon to a treacherously hot 63°F High...It'll be fun to see Corso's breath hang in the air in September!!! "Ya der you know, he was funny lookin'!" Quote
jdub27 Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Presented without comment: http://bisonfans.are...up-for-gameday/ As an exiled North Dakotan, I feel a sense of embarrassment when thinking about UND, and believe they should be regarded as a shameful family member never to be discussed with outsiders.

SiouxMD Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Presented without comment: http://bisonfans.are...up-for-gameday/ Exiled? Interesting word choice... Exile (verb) past tense: exiled past participle: exiled expel and bar (someone) from their native country, typically for political or punitive reasons. I wonder what he did? 1 Quote

Cratter Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Even the day before GameDay comes to Fargo I should have never guessed there popular blogs would have mentioned UND so much...I guess they never truely will get over UND. Quote
bison73 Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Wow over on BV they are pissed because Delaware St has an article about being on Gameday. Hello Bison fans its not only about you it's about the entire FCS. First they bitch about the location then bitch about any school mentioned that is not theirs. Anything else to bitch about? Oh and of course bitching about Lou Holtz wondering why the rivalry isn't going on (don't tell them it's all a UND conspiracy). What stupid idiots. I am sure if ESPN talks about the rivalry or even mentions the word UND it will be a total meltdown over there. Yep we have some real idiots for fans. Thank goodness its not exclusive to Fargo. Quote
bison73 Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 "The Biggest Little Game in America," not far from ESPN. Neat. Are you comparing Roseau to Grand Forks? And of course they can average higher crowds. UND is drawing from the same general pool as NDSU for people to go to the games. Probably an hour and a half from my house in north Fargo to the Alerus parking lot....if I stop for gas on my way out of Fargo. Disagree. I don't think we'd get 30,000 average. I think we'd push 30,000 for homecoming and UNI. The others, probably not. I think 24-25,000 avg. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 I think 24-25,000 avg. Today? Easy. When it starts to come down from the lofty heights? ... Quote
Matt Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Heard Bohl on with Jack Michaels. Bohl said he's got recruits calling him to talk about GameDay and ndsu. So there's that. Quote
Shawn-O Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Heard Bohl on with Jack Michaels. Bohl said he's got recruits calling him to talk about GameDay and ndsu. So there's that. Couple nattys and .700 on the FBS. Well earned Coach Bohl. Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Couple nattys and .700 on the FBS. Well earned Coach Bohl. half a dozen felonies and dozens of misdemeanors later....yeah congrats? Quote
Shawn-O Posted September 21, 2013 Posted September 21, 2013 half a dozen felonies and dozens of misdemeanors later....yeah congrats? Well...we havent had a guy expose his junk at the mall but not every guy donning a Sioux uni has been a choirboy either Quote
Hayduke Posted September 21, 2013 Posted September 21, 2013 Heard Bohl on with Jack Michaels. Bohl said he's got recruits calling him to talk about GameDay and ndsu. So there's that. I'll bet he is getting a lot of calls. I understand that ESPN is very, very popular in juvenile detention. Oh, he better get out those letters of intent and hope that they get their GEDs ASAP! Quote
Wilbur Posted September 21, 2013 Posted September 21, 2013 Right! ESPN College Game Day is an awesome show...Fargo will be going crazy during the pre-game show. I wonder what headgear Lee Corso is going to put on...hmnnnn...I gave a guess... So a horses @ss will have a bison head on? Sorry, that was too easy.... Corso usually dooms teams when he picks them. No way he can doom the Bison against Delaware. Quote
Matt Posted September 21, 2013 Posted September 21, 2013 I enjoy jokes at the expense of the AC as much as anyone, but what I don't find quite as funny is the thought of our guy Muss recruiting "toe to toe" with Bohl. Having this ESPN infomercial to push demand is downright frightening. Quote
IrishSiouxFan Posted September 21, 2013 Posted September 21, 2013 Wow! Nice shout out by ESPN college game day, two big mentions for UND. One about Phil Jackson, the other about UND's 7 national championships in hockey! Quote
