Jacks have the OL, DL. QB, WR.  Jacks by 10

I can’t think of one position/position group where NDSU has an advantage. Maybe defensive secondary. I’ll be cheering madly for the Bison of course but I think SDSU wins by at least two td’s. I think it will look similar to SDSU/MSU.

...and Cam will complete 4 passes for 31 yards and NDSU will still win by 2 scores.

Random Factoid of the Day:

Frisco Texas Bowl (Boise State v North Texas): 12211  <-- 20 miles from UNT

FCS Quarter (UIW v NDSU): 12569 <-- in a blizzard with closed interstate highways

It is SDSU time

They won't have a better chance that this one right here.

I'll take the Bunnies in this one.  Cubby's and Skinner's Pub will be bumping all day.

so two fumbles....one in the NFL...kc v houston the other fcs playoffs iwu v ndac

pretty similiar in that there was pig pile and in the NFL they got it right without replay and even with replay the FCS refs couldn't get it right....

Why Patriot League officials for UIW@NDSU? Why not a MWC or Big XII or B1G crew? 

I say that because at times the Patriot crew seemed out of position.

FBS officials would be unsurprised, unfazed, by the power and speed of an FCS playoff game.

I posted attendance figures a few days ago.  Typically it has been close to a sellout, but numbers have been dropping the last few years.  This year, they have failed to get to 13K for a playoff game.  

2022	2nd Round	12,929
	Quarterfinal	11.825
2021	2nd Round	12,557
	Quarterfinal	11,794
	Semifinal	16,550
2020	Quarterfinal	3587 *COVID*
2019	2nd Round	15,690
	Quarterfinal	18,077
	Semifinal	17,866

Thank you.

Bison have that mystique and know that but for a silly call by the OC in the first game, they would have dominated the Jacks early and beat them.

Bison by a TD.

Not sure who will be the winner but I suspect the game could be 38-37.
