SiouxMeNow Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 okay - I'll float a thread (if only for the monsters benefit ) about the DII playoffs....GV will host East Stroudsburg for a ticket to Florence....I say that tickets already punched!! If UNA makes it, that should be an interesting (and VERY WELL ATTENDED) NC game! Quote
bigmrg74 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 Would ya shut up about staying how GVSU has their ticket punched for Alabama already?? What are ya trying to do, jinx us or something?? Quote
Cratter Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 Would ya shut up about staying how GVSU has their ticket punched for Alabama already?? What are ya trying to do, jinx us or something?? More like, they already got their name on the trophy. Quote

UND92,96 Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 Grand Valley won 55-20 today, and will meet NW Missouri State in the championship game. I have to think at least the top four northwest teams could have won the whole thing this year. Quote

I have to think at least the top four northwest teams could have won the whole thing this year. Which makes the it even harder to take the last two losses of the season (regular season). The Sioux would have had home field throughout and basically be in GV's position. Quote

bigmrg74 Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 ESU looked like a public schools Freshmen team out against a Private schools Varsity. About half of ESU's players are probably going to be going to the dentist tomarrow because they have had fillings knocked loose. Props to Jimmy T though, he showed he was Hella Tuff with getting knocked all around and still getting back up to take some more punishment. Still, going to hear a lot of howling about how Regionalization should be phazed out of D2, especially from your neighbors to the South. Perhaps Bob would like to make a mention of his Idea?? Quote

I'll be cheering for you next Saturday! Ya got a lota talent on that team of yours, should be a cake walk! Quote
dakotadan Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 I have to go for NW Missouri State. Who wants to see our "new rivals" win it all? Quote
bigmrg74 Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 I have to go for NW Missouri State. Who wants to see our "new rivals" win it all? It will give you guys just that much more motivation to beat us when you guys play us next year in the Playoffs. Quote
SiouxMD Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 Who is going to watch the DII Championship game today? GVSU and NWMSU fans better hope the Ohio State vs. St. Joseph's basketball game is done by 4:00PM EST... I am still mad at ESPN... Quote
PCM Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 I may watch a bit of the game just to see how it turns out. Personally, I'd like to see GVSU beat NW Missouri convincingly. I'd like to be able to say that UND was the only team that gave the national champs a close game. Quote
bincitysioux Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 I am still mad at ESPN... ESPN sucks Quote
bincitysioux Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 (edited) Who is going to watch the DII Championship game today? GVSU and NWMSU fans better hope the Ohio State vs. St. Joseph's basketball game is done by 4:00PM EST... I am still mad at ESPN... Well, it's happening again. Not that I much care this year. I understand that it is only DII football, but for crying outloud it is the National Championship! Couldn't they put a regular season basketball game on the Deuce or ESPNU and make sure the broadcast starts on time or vice versa? How many channels does ESPN have anyways? Half if not more of the first quarter will be gone by now. Edited December 10, 2005 by bincitysioux Quote

As ussual you can't see the beginning of the game because of a non-important basketball game between to weak sisters of the poor. What gives. Quote
SiouxMD Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 The announcers were talking about previous DII football greats to include...Walter Payton...and the overall level of talent at DI-AA and DII football (they had covered a DI-AA quarterfinal game last week). Then said something like..."not all good players come from the big-boy schools." If it wasn't for ESPN Sunday Night Football...I would cancel them tomorrow. BTW... NWMSU 14 GVSU 7 2nd 13:43 Quote
jimdahl Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 What's the score? It's been a good game. GVSU just drove down the field but then missed a somewhat short FG opportunity. 17-14, NWMS, 10:47 remaining in the game Quote
jimdahl Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 Amazing game, right up to the end. NWMS drove the entire length of the field (and I mean drove, from the 15 to the other 20 in about 15 plays) in the last couple minutes. The had one throw into the end zone with 15 secs to go, but the receiver didn't come down cleanly with it. NWMS had one last chance with 1 second on the clock, it was caught, but the guy was tackled a couple yards short of the end zone. Final: GVSU 21, NWMS 17 Quote
UND92,96 Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 Grand Valley was very, very lucky. I can't even imagine how bad that NW Missouri receiver must feel right now... Quote
SiouxMD Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 A great game for any football fan...congratulations to GVSU. Quote
Sioux-cia Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 WOO HOO!!!! A win is a win. Congrats, GVSU!! Quote
