Dear Drake, channel that anger and take it out on SDSU next week at Target Field.

I would have been interested in watching this game, but couldn’t. How did these two teams look compared to what we’ve seen from UND so far?

[Und246]

Better

[Sioux>Bison]

UNH almost beats FBS Central Michigan

fordham beats FBS buffalo

SIU beats FBS NIU

Idaho Demolished FBS Nevada

EWU almost beats FBS Fresno

We need to get on this list!

[SWSiouxMN]

Thoughts that will be wrong later after week 2

-I'm not shocked that Montana State nearly beat SDSU.  I think SDSU can be had early in the year, but when we get to Nov/Dec, they are going to be very difficult to take down.

-UNI finds themselves in a familiar 0-2 hole and they have little room for error now with @ SDSU, @ ISU Red, YSU , NDSU, and UND left on their schedule.  Could have a very desparate Panthers squad on 10/21.

-SIU will be a playoff team, lots of bottom teams left on their schedule.  Big one against SEMO next week. 

-USD can win 7 games this year, UST needs another year or two, espeically on the offensive side, to start being competitive with the scholly teams.  I would love to see the Tommies get a bottom MVFC team on the schedule and could beat them.

-the Cam Miller/Cole Payton dynamic will be very interesting in Fargo.   Not suggesting any QB contraversy but Payton is a weapon that needs touches.

Broken record here but it still comes down to OL and DL. Both of those teams looked rock solid and big, not saying we can't "any given Sunday" them and we are moving in the right direction.

Caught the last 3 minutes on tonight’s rebroadcast.

Don’t know if I got a great sense of how these teams are, but both of their quarterbacks can air it out. 
 

gotta say, I love SDSU’s field. No ads, crisp yard line font, and checkerboard end zone. Que magnifique!

On pace for another Top 20, just need that signature 1st win of the season in week 3 or 4.

Crazy how atrocious uniforms are nowadays. UND / Adidas has been struggling a bit. I think most are content with black and white uniform sets, but how can you botch the Kelly green ones?
Need a new set that matches the all blacks better … although I’m not as sour on the current green ones as some. Just need them to be solid… no white shoulders.

of course, next up …. Classics with throwback gray helmets …??

Gross. The players hated those jerseys.

Not FCS. But what is happening in the Missouri vs K-State game? Missouri clocks the ball to set up a game winning FG. But instead of running the FG unit out they stand together on the sidelines thinking someone called a timout or something, as they had no timeouts. They get a delay of game. Almost throw a interception when they try to run a play with 8 seconds left. Then they get a 61 yard FG at time expires...

 

And a SEC crowd storms the field when they beat Kansas State?

that FG would've been good from 65 atleast. Wow. Kicker is a big guy too.

 

That 61 yarder is a SEC record.

K-State…the bigger they are the harder they fall…’Bama too….what is in store for the Bison?

[Wildfan]

Drake is beating SDSU at Target Field 7-0

[Mama Sue]

Could this be another the bigger they are the harder they fall? WOW

i don't think so. Just Drake drawing up a good first series. According to the Argus Leader reporter for SDSU Drake hit a 50+ and a 35 yard pass to score. The 50 yarder was the 1st play that almost went to the house.

 

On the TD was just a simple go route that WR had a step and no real pressure on his catch. Great thrown ball.

[Sioux>Bison]

SDSU up 35-7 on Drake at half

Utah Tech up 31-7 on NAU first half

maybe we are not as good as the first two games showed

Maybe loading up on transfers isn't the way to go.

 NDSU rolling central Arkansas 42-17 in the 3rd. NDSU will be playing in frisco in the new year. SDSU is the only one going to stop them
