Winning 52 of the last 55 games, 5 straight against FBS teams, 3 straight FCS titles.....then you lose 1 game and drop to #4 in the polls!! Sorry Bison fans if we and every other FCS college football fan don't show you any sympathy!! It's part of what fuels the machine. Outrageous standards. Quote
FargoBison Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 Polls aren't a big deal, if NDSU wins out they will be a 1 or 2 seed. CCU has some things to worry about seedingwise with no FBS game and no top 25 wins. Looking like a 3 to 5 seed to me. Quote

If NDSU was #3 and CC was #1 and lost you would be outraged if they stayed #1. You guys cry over everything. The difference is Marshall would never be #3 in the FBS polls. Those voting would never be that dumb to think they were the third best team in the FBS, just because they are undefeated. Coastal will end up with a top 4 seed based on final rankings. It is a joke and better more deserving teams will get screwed. Quote

That "joke" of a team somehow managed to beat #4 Montana in Missoula the week before. Maybe...just maybe...that's a decent team? Quote

I think if they had lost by 3 or 7 points they would have only dropped 1 or 2 spots. But when you lose by 20, you can expect to drop at least 3 spots in the poll. Bison fans probably don't think they should of dropped at all. I agree. You get beat by 20 you arent going to drop just one spot. The only time I think we shouldnt have dropped is if we played a very good team and it was very close at the end. Quote

UNI proved you guys are beatable. Quote

So what was the purpose of that statement????? Quote

I advocate that Coastal should be ranked higher than NDSU right now. For very different reasons than you however. Quote

Bison fans shouldn't worry about a road playoff game anyways, anyone, anywhere right? Quote
WYOBISONMAN Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 I am fine with where the Bison are in the polls. They got piss pounded by UNI. So..... Get back on the horse and ride. The Playoffs are coming and the Bison are in no matter what happens these next two games. Quote

No reason to worry I don't think. They'll be a top 2 seed barring another loss.... In which case they would have no reason to complain about going on the road. Quote

However, it sure is nice to not have to drive/fly somewhere to watch said playoff game. Much easier on the work schedule and finances to drive a few blocks to the FargoDome. Quote

But like a singer, you need to go out on tour. Quote
