Minnesota game after ASU upset

[NDSUFREAK]

Seeing that the biggest upset in the history of Football was unveiled today in Ann Arbor this poses some questions/comments for our game on the 20th of October.


Minnesota will be more than ready for the game and maybe even more ready for us than OSU or Michigan themselves.
NDSU will take the momentum from ASU and kick the goofers ass.
Will we be overlooked by the fan base of the U as well?
Will we continue the upsets for the FCS?Those are just my two cents

It speaks well for the caliber of football being played in the FCS. Some of the upper-tier FCS teams will be able to play with almost any program on any given Saturday. The exceptions would probably be playing teams like Florida, LSU, and USC. To me, this wasn't a major upset, after watching ASU in the championship game last year. Both teams had their breakdowns, miscues, etc. I think that all of the above (from your list) will be the result...but probably not the ass kicking. We'll be confident, and Minnesota will be ready. It should be very intense, competitive, and fun.

FCS football at the top quality programs is not that much different than at the lower to middle tier of FBS on the FCS's elite's best games. Of course ASU played out of their mind but they are a damn good football team. I thought they could maybe score a few points on Michigan but not win. I wonder what the folks on "Gameday" think of the "cupcakes" now.

MN isnt looking too good right now against BG. PL

[X-Factor]

LMAO

Bowling Green (WTF?!)- 14

Minnesota- GOOSE

[KC_Hats]

Minnesota looks worse than last season and Brewster looks more lost than Mason did.

On another note Kansas is taking Central Michigan to the woodshed it was 35-0 last score I saw.

Both FBS games look winnable to me.

Sagarin Rankings as of 10:11 Saturday Night

Minnesota - 35

Bowling Green - 87

NDSU - 82

This game is definately closer than Minnesota wanted. 21 - 21 with 6:00 to go. Gopher ball

It will take Brewster a few games to get the Sue out of the Goophers (not misspelled)!!!

Gophers lose in OT to a two point conversion. BG 32 Minn 31

Brewster after the two point conversion was on his knees slapping the turf! Priceless.

Minnesota Gophers...Rose Bowl Bound. :D :D :D

MN looked much beter in the second half. BG had some balls to go for 2. PL

Why stop at the Rose Bowl? Punky Brewster thinks they should only play USC, Texas and LSU. Goophers for the National Championship.:nod: :p

I wonder if that loss will shut him up. I kind of doubt it.

[BisonNeil]

The team, and more importantly the fan response, will be really interesting to watch.

The Miami (Ohio) game is critical for the Goophers (not misspelled).

[KC Bison]

On this week's Gopher show on FSN, Brewster had already analyzed their problems and was ready to solve them. They're still on track to get to the Rose Bowl. Dream on Punky.

[stpaulbison]

PA and Dubay are talking about NDSU on their show right now. Don't know how much longer they will talk about the FCS division but here is a link to listen online. Their bit runs from 9-12 weekdays on KFAN 1130 AM. For those of you who don't know who they are, KFAN is a sports talk radio station based in the twin cities which plays on other stations in the midwest.

Minnesota is staring a non-bowl season dead in the face right now. They should blow out FAU, but the rest of their "gimme" games are not looking real great. They are only 6 spots ahead of Miami (OH) in the Sagaring rankings, Purdue and Illinois at home, Northwestern and Indiana away, not to mention the NDSU game. I think that these were all games they counted on winning, but I'm not sure they win more than 2 or maybe 3 of them.

Beautiful, NDSUstudent. Simply beautiful.:nod:

[EagleBison]

Brewster didn't get much leftover from the Mason Regime. They need to give him a couple years to see if he can improve. Weber does look like he might turn out to be a good QB. Even if the Gophers are ready, the Bison still have a great chance to win this one.

[WildBill]

The spread will take away from the Bison's strength,ie the linebackers.

Will Minnesota know how to run the spread by the time they play the Bison? :hide:

[SlickVic]

will the gophers be able to stop tyler rohl???

[X-Factor]

or Steve Walker? man, if you thought the Bowling Green stats were ugly...

[NDSUstudent]

Your forgetting the whole part of needing to be able to run the spread effectively first. For this year at least I have some big doubts if the Gophers have the tools to run that kind of offense.

[Bison53]

WTF is it?

[74BisonFan]

please tell me if I am wrong, but I thought the new o-cordinator came from Cal and the reason he left Cal was because the head coach would not let him pass as much as he wanted to?

[bisonmike2]

if our d-line gets pressure we don't have to worry about the spread. After all, if he doesn't have time to throw the ball, we don't have to worry about who's covering the recievers.
