PCM Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 End of the first quarter, it's NDSU 3, Minnesota 0. Quote
PCM Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Minnesota just can't move the ball on the ground against NDSU's defense. Gophers kick a 31-yard field goal after the fumbled punt return to tie it 3-3. Quote
PCM Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Great kickoff return for NDSU. The Bison don't know that they're the underdogs. Quote
dakotadan Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 The bison offense is having no problems so far today. Just some unlucky turnovers. They are just walking it down the field. Knocking on the door right now. Quote
PCM Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 NDSU scores a TD, but it comes back on a tripping penalty. Quote
PCM Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Bison hit a 40-yard field goal to go up 6-3 in the second quarter. Quote
PCM Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 NDSU sacks Gopher QB to end a scoring threat. Minnesota's kicker misses another field goal. Still 6-3 NDSU late in the second quarter. Quote
yepdude Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Sorry i skipped to the end of the thread. Is there a link for a audio feed? Thanks for the updates PCM Quote
Diggler Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Sorry i skipped to the end of the thread. Is there a link for a audio feed? Thanks for the updates PCM I think both schools charge for their internet audio. Quote
jimdahl Posted October 21, 2006 Author Posted October 21, 2006 Haven't seen any of this game (not on national t.v., not surprisingly) or followed it, but just peeked at the score and stats a couple minutes before the half. Based on stats alone, looks like they're playing pretty even (Minn 128 yds off., NoDakSt 131), except NDSU has 2 turnovers to Minn's 0, and Minn has missed two FGs. You still have to think Minnesota is the favorite as it looks like NDSU is somewhat lucky to be up 6-3, but they're certainly not being dramatically outplayed so could realistically hold on unless Minnesota gets its act together.

PCM Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 End of first half, it's NDSU 6, Minnesota 3. Quote
Let'sGoHawks! Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 I can't force myself to say "GO North Dakota State", but I am saying, "GO State of North Dakota!" Quote
Diggler Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 That's where the stats lie. The Gophers are lucky to only be down 3. The Bison have kicked their butts. The only reason the Gophers have scored was because the Bison fumbled a punt. Quote
HockeyMom Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 I feel like I'm going to throw up, as much as I know it will be good for all of North Dakota for the Bison to win......watching this game makes my stomach churn. Quote
7>4 Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 A Gopher loss, no matter the sport, is ALWAYS a good thing. Go NORTH DAKOTA state. Quote
PCM Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 I just can't get over how listless the Gophers look. They apear to have given up on their coach and the season. Unbelievable. Quote
Gothmog Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 I just can't get over how listless the Gophers look. They apear to have given up on their coach and the season. Unbelievable. Listless? They're just getting their butts kicked. Things could turn around in the second half, but, so far, this is total physical domination by the Bison! Quote
bertibm Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 I am a Gopher Fan, but I want them to lose. I want Mason Fired. If they do lose I home the fire him right after the game. Also if they lose, I want to hear how Sid kisses up to Mason Quote
Sioux_Yeah_Yeah Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 This is kinda a boring game as it's so low scoring.... But I love watching it!!! If that makes any sense lol FEEL THE THUNDER!!! GO BISON!!! (I am highly anti-Minnesota!) Quote
Riverman Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 6-3 end of 3rd In other Big Ten scores. Iowa 3 and Mich 10 3rd qtr Quote
Riverman Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 I just can't get over how listless the Gophers look. They apear to have given up on their coach and the season. Unbelievable. Have no fear PCM the Gophers will find a new coach. Maybe he's standing on the other sideline right now! Quote
jimdahl Posted October 21, 2006 Author Posted October 21, 2006 This is kinda a boring game as it's so low scoring.... Q. What happens when the worst Big Ten team in years (sorry Northwestern) plays a top I-AA? A. Apparently nothing. Definitely feels like anyone who gets a touchdown will have amassed an insurmountable lead. The teams are a combined 3/6 on FG attempts; NDSU is 0/3 in the red zone with 2 FGs; Minnesota has never been in the red zone. Quote
PCM Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Listless? Yes, listless, in my opinion. That's taking nothing away from Bison because they're playing a great game. But Minnesota should be playing like a team possessed, and they look to be sleepwalking their way through this game. Quote
PCM Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Minnesota takes a 10-6 lead with about 10:30 left in the fourth quarter. Quote
PCM Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 The Bison are putting together a nice drive. They're to the Minnesota 35 with 6:48 left. Quote
