zonadub Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Wow, can Bison fans be more full of themselves or what. Yep those teams are scared of North Dakota State, but yet they can schedule other FCS teams. You know, JohnBoy probably has a point. Just like NDSU's argument against playing UND, there is no upside for an FBS team to play NDSU. On top of that, those teams paid NDSU to get beat.

bison73 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 That 8-6 record was the year NDSU played them. So what do you derive from that record. They were 8-5 regular season. They lost to Kansas, Purdue, NDSU, Clemson, EMU there only in conf loss and again Purdue in the bowl game. So you are going to hang your hat on their record as to the quality of their football team? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndsubison1 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 NDSU's FBS opponents since 2008 (post transition): Wyoming (4-8) Iowa St (7-6), Kansas (3-9), Minnesota (3-9), Colorado State (4-8), Kansas St (8-5), Iowa State (2-10) total record: 31-55 .360 Bohl had a good strategy, required 6 home games, must schedule cupcake FBS team (K-State only exception), and weak OOC FCS teams (home only!) What are you trying to prove? NDSU can beat cupcake FBS teams, unlike UND? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darell1976 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 What are you trying to prove? NDSU can beat cupcake FBS teams, unlike UND? No I'm trying to prove maybe NDSU needs to take on the big guy of the FBS not have a writer bitch about not playing cupcake FBS teams any more. Yes UND hasn't beaten an FBS team but neither has your rival SDSU but our writers aren't printing we can't play cupcake FBS teams either.

petey23 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 How about you get off a UND board Bison boy. How about the 2 of you work together, harvest your vast knowledge and see if you have enough firepower together to figure out how to brown bread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Check this out from Kolpack today...http://bisonmedia.areavoices.com/?p=91979 I especially thought this was funny.."On that note, I’m further convinced NDSU’s days of scheduling a winnable FBS game are over. The Mid-American Conference has long not answered a 701 area code. I think you can add the lower division teams of the power conferences, too. It took awhile, but they finally figured it out: in this day and age of the spread offense, there are not many physical teams out there anymore and that matchup is something FBS schools want no part of. You can’t blame them. Moreover, that’s only going to drive the price up of a guarantee to another FCS school. They know NDSU’s options are probably limited." Allow me to translate that: Victim of own success. It's a terrible problem to have; it's a great problem to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are those in the North Dakota media for whom there is only one football team in the 701 area code. We have the luxury of laughing at it here, but for the marketing department trying to establish UND football and the BSC as a viable media share of voice it isn't an amusing problem. edit: Just a comment on the quoted material, no slight toward FightingSioux87 .

niouxsiouxfan Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Maybe we could get NDSU to pay UND to come up here and have Grady and crew whoop therm up a little. Shouldn't be too hard to convince those geniuses that it's basically a home game for them, seeing as they are the only team that matters.

fightingsioux4life Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Enough Darrel. Really? Isn't this the designated thread for UND-NDSU bickering? Or is that inappropriate here too? Kiss NDSU's a$$ if you want, but I will not do that. Not today and not ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdub27 Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I smell smoke..... Well on the Foundation side, they spent $86K to hire Mayo, who lasted 20 months. They've put together a committee to figure out went wrong and are going to spend $10K on that. Once they figure out went wrong, they plan to form a search committee and spend another $98K or so with a hiring firm. Not to mention the pending lawsuits by a couple former employees. On the audit side, I think DCZ's response was about right. Not the place to pick a fight with the legislators. “Even though nobody welcomes a performance audit, the University of North Dakota Alumni Association and Foundation will not challenge the audit from the state. We firmly believe we follow best practices as they are outlined in the not-for-profit and higher education sectors.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND-1 Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Can Dean Brescani give up whining to the legislature for lent? That guy is the biggest baby, whiner I have ever seen. Everybody is out to get him and NDSU, all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We firmly believe we follow best practices as they are outlined in the not-for-profit and higher education sectors.” Didn't the last Legislature somehow open up the university foundations to public audit? EDIT: Found it. It wasn't the legislature. One member of the executive committee, Jim Roers, said the NDSU foundation should use this as an opportunity to challenge the original attorney general ruling that made the foundation a public entity last year. Public entities are open to state audit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
