Izzo is running a poll today. Over 500 votes so far and 57% say NDSU didn't deserve a seed (insert should shrug emoji).  

 

Do the bison faithful really trust this team of theirs? Hard to forget losing to all the Dakotas…. That deserves some road playoff games! Show the FCS you can do it on the road too

All I'm gonna say is they've played their best football the last couple weeks with their backs against the wall.  Haven't watched sh*t on Montana State but on the right day, they are one of the best in the country, so who knows....No expectations this post season (for me anyway), gonna have to be week to week and see what goes down.

For starters: analytics >>> "stogies and scotch". (PWR is a far better system.) 

Pseudo-regionalization is a joke: Per Massey ...
#13 gets #65
#9 gets #35
#8 gets #38, but ...
#10 gets #12? 


Finally, run a "bottom" FCS tournament for the HBCUs, non-scholly (Pioneer), and Ivys if they want in.

Definitely a head scratcher. Does Sac St not draw well or why didn’t they have a home game?

Hard to figure out how us and Ndsu both have 3 fcs losses and we win head to head and they get paired with the worst team in the field…

You could probably look at their performance at UNI as well as ours.

Those games are just a mystery.   How do we smoke NDSU and then lay down and die against UNI?  If NDSU could beat them then we should have been up to the task as well.  It's all psychological and this is on the coaches.

Guess it's just the way the cookie crumbles.  Just a little hard to understand how 2 teams with basically the same resumes and the one that lost the head-to-head (badly) gets the weakest opponent in the field and we got probably the toughest of any team that didn't get a home game.  Not to mention SIU and Youngstown got very easy matchups.  Guess it's bad luck being on the western side of the field.

The Committee does not like getting called out - they have ways of getting payback.

While I dont disagree with any of your points.. I was happy with our draw.  Clearly the toughest first round matchup, but the chance for a rematch against USD made it a decent draw for us in my book.  If the defense had a pulse outside the 3rd quarter and if the offense had just run the ball we would all be happily heading down to USD next weekend.  If you cant beat a team like Sac St. at home the rest doesnt really matter.. but I generally agree with your points.

And I agree with yours.

Sac State already have two penalties, an interception thrown and they fumbled returned for a td early in 2nd quarter 

NONE of these vs us

ugh

A different game with the lead...
