Matt Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 As if we needed another reason to be bitter about this playoff situation, think for a moment how valuable it would be to have split allegiances around the state. People gathering at homes and bars all over the state to watch UND in their first playoff game (or second this weekend).Instead, its yet another year where the whole state gathers to watch the only game in town, as it has now for the 6th straight year.

UNDBIZ Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Is anyone saying that UND doesn't have a good rushing game and rushing defense? They clearly do but somebody or a Bison fan must have fired you all up to keep discussing it huh? Well it's been a couple days and here you are bringing it up again..... Quote
Cratter Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 I'm not the one who is bringing it up.A few minutes before:Somebody must have fired you all up to keep discussing it huh? Quote
Shawn-O Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 So the point is still the question of who fired you up to keep discussing it?Why do you care? Your team is still playing, and has a home playoff game on Saturday. You have better things to discuss, right? 1 Quote

Teeder11 Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 I could read 37 pages to figure it out but i would assume the people mad would know the answer fairly quickly. I guess that's a difficult question to answer for some reason.if it's something you "care" about then 37 pages will fly right by. I know there aren't a whole lot of pictures to help you along the way with picture clues, being a Moo U guy and all, but buck up, you can do it, because you "care." Besides, it seems you have more than enough time on your hands to be posting inane BS on another school's message board at 10 am on a Thursday. What else you got to do while you wait your turn at Job Service, right? 4 Quote
jdub27 Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Nice to see the kind of idiots that are on this board. Congrats.Congrats on accomplishing the first step. I'm sure it was tough to admit to. Quote
UNDBIZ Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Ok, everybody cut out the personal attack stuff. Mj23, I'd say it's apparent at this point nobody is going to go back and look up how the running back stuff came up for you. Good luck. Quote

Absolutely deadly."Mark Wilson is the athletic director at Tennessee Tech and the chairman of the 2015 selection committee. He doesn't believe Fullerton's concerns are a problem."I don't think we have too many voices," Wilson said. "I don't think our committee members feel like they are advocates for a particular conference. They are knowledgeable about their particular conference, just as they are knowledge about all the schools that we monitor."OK Mark Wilson. No advocates for a particular conference but somehow WIU knew they were in when they won their 6th game of the season? Whether you like Fullerton or not, he deserves credit for not only speaking openly (sometimes to a fault) but also continuously looking at ways to improve. I'd rather have a commissioner who shoots high and aims at being better, even if they miss the mark sometimes, than one(s) that are reactionary and accept the status quo. 10 Quote

Sodacker Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Wilson just burying his head in the sand and pretending that there aren't issues that need to be addressed is very disconcerting. Quote
ClassB Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Mark Wilson is not the year-to-year chair is he? Quote
Hansel Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 The current system has been pretty good to the Big Sky. The Big Sky has not won a non-conference playoff road game since 2008, but has lost 9 non-conference playoff home games since then. In that same timespan the MVFC has 10 non-conf road playoff wins and 3 home non-conf playoff losses.The Big Sky's biggest problem is that only 2 of the current 13 teams have made a deep playoff run in the last 30 years. 1 1 Quote
