Oxbow6 Posted April 14, 2021 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

Popular Post Siouxphan27 Posted April 14, 2021 Popular Post 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
CMSioux Posted April 14, 2021 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

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

Missouri st and ndsu would have 2 losses. UND and SDSU with 1 loss. Youngstown really screwed us. If they cancel earlier this Saturday would be open for Missouri st to come here. Quote

SiouxHawkGuy Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Can dog poo teams opt out in the fall? Quote

Siouxperfan7 Posted April 15, 2021 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
Big Green Posted April 15, 2021 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
homer Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 This sucks. Do it a week earlier and see if we could have got MSU to work for what would essentially be a playoff game Quote

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. Quote

Sioux>Bison Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 The FCS is such a joke, we should have gone FBS long ago. It’s never too late either!!! Quote

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? Quote
