Oxbow6 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 This whole "spring" season has been one of the biggest jokes I've seen in the past year plus.....and that's saying a lot. Shut it all down......continuing is just nonsense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can tell the team wants to play so if we make the playoffs I hope we play. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Siouxphan27 Posted April 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 14, 2021 I didn’t realize how weak this conference was; no wonder NDSU cruises through it every year. I feel like an ndSU fan at the moment; “everyone’s too scared to play us!” 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMSioux Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 No matter what I think this was better than your regular spring ball - at least they got some game experience instead of just O vs D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UND would have tie breaker. No it’s not. For a two way tie you are correct. But if there is a 3 way tie (which there will be) it doesn’t work that way. Just read not going to argue if you are going to be stubborn. https://herosports.com/fcs-football-conference-tiebreaker-playoff-auto-bid-bzbz/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siouxperfan7 Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 If this is not Covid related and they just decided to cancel the game, it should be a forfeit and we get the win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Green Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Feel really bad for the team. Put in all that work and their opponent chickens out. Remember this in the fall and run up the score. Total crap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without question, the cancellation sucks, but what would a forfeit do in this case? UND is already a conference co-champion, an added win doesn't have any bearing on the MVFC automatic qualifier situation, and the playoff selection committee would ignore it. It would only be an extra, only-on-paper, win in the historic win/loss stats. And it's not like YSU would care; 1-7 instead of 1-6? Whoopdi-do in this messed up season.

Could have got Missouri St to come to the Alerus this week. Sure, Missouri State would be willing to come to Grand Forks to give up their first MVFC title in how many years?
