Apparently neither our own Athletic Department nor Scheels know the school colors--WTF!!!????:pan:

I say we call it "Yellow is Intimidating."

[bisonmike2]

Great idea, I hope people take to this. Perhaps the media department could hand out yellow book covers and encourage the old people to only crochet yellow blankets for this game?

I thought that was an interesting option. Y'know, just in case.

I wonder if they could combo this up with the Spectrum doing their "big headlines on newspaper" idea?

[AjaxTheMighty]

I always wear yellow, but I sit by families who flipping refuse

[EndZoneQB]

When we start wearing yellow jerseys I will start wearing yellow as well. Until then, I will stick to my green jerseys.

Yeah!!! What he said!!!!

[344Johnson]

I like the yellow idea. Its a brighter color so it would look a lot better than a green out or something along those lines.

[EndZoneQB]

Well, instead of trying to force people to wear one color, why don't we start with people actually wearing NDSU gear?

[rutlandbison]

Well, instead of trying to force people to wear one color, why don't we start with people actually wearing NDSU gear?
That is yellow.

[roadwarrior]

Well, instead of trying to force people to wear one color, why don't we start with people actually wearing NDSU gear?

I agree with this! At the Iowa State game 2 years ago, almost all of their fans were wearing ISU clothing of one color or another.

[aces1180]

The only way I will wear yellow/gold to a game is if the Bison breakout a yellow Nike jersey and sell an authentic #11 in that color at Scheels...Until then, I will stick with rotating my green Nike #11 and white Nike #11.

[99Bison]

Way to NOT take one for the team yellow/gold/anything in that hue boycotters!

[Bison06]

What is the hold up with some of you guys. Seriously, I would wear a damn pink tube top to the game if that is what created a great atmosphere for a football game. Wearing one of our school colors to the game is not too much to ask. Get your yellow shirt out for one game.

You wear the tube top and I bet Aces will oblige. He's a sucker for a pink tubetop.

Exactly. Wearing one of the school colors isn't too much to ask. Tell that to 15k of the fans BEFORE we worry about everyone in yellow. I like to wear my jersey to the games...which does not and has not come in yellow(ok can't back that up, but I'm assuming).

Your girlfriend has a different idea EndZoneQB...

Dayyuummmm, shes smokin'! I immediately retract my statements. Yellow it is guys!

[4mcruenomore]

Why the f*ck would I wear a $5 yellow t-shirt when I have 25 jerseys, some authentic?

[99Bison]

Why would someone want to try and play football at NDSU as a backup when they could start as a true freshman at Moorhead State?

Side note, I will sell you a yellow shirt for $250 if that helps.

Because it creates an extremely hostile environment to have a fan base organized.

[Bison bison]

A good idea, but yellow simply doesn't belong in a smart casual ensemble.

How can I attend the game and read a John Irving novel while wearing yellow?

Unconscionable.

[Bison bison]

The least the students could do is make up 1,000 shirts and sell them for a couple bucks a piece. First in the union, then on game day.

[SDbison]

Well, instead of trying to force people to wear one color, why don't we start with people actually wearing NDSU gear?
Well it is better now than in the past......if you ever watch the video of the first game ever at the Fargodome hardly anyone is wearing NDSU gear. Of course people that had NDSU stuff wore something like the teammaker jackets at Dacotah Field and what use were those inside a dome.

[SDbison]

Just wear yellow shirts Dammit! No excuses.

[MNLonghorn10]

yellow out? gay. leave the "outs" to penn state and penn state only

ill stick with my wolf shirt+green 69 jersey combo. if you dont like it....

[BlueBisonRock]

All things considered, I will bring and can be convinced to wear my Yellow (not gold) official NDSU polo (acquired at Scheels) to any home game.

Thanks to 06 for his offer to wear a pink tutu and 99 for providing such incredible insight and arguement! They convinced me to be flexible.


I would still love to see SD contribute to the Genie thread.

[56BISON73]

Would that be a european shoulder bag?:)

Does that lead to the opposing team thinking that the fans are going to attack them? :confused:

[HerdBot]

Since we now have normal lights, the need for s yellow out isn't as important because its going to look brighter regardless of what color we wear. I wear yellow because NDSU wants me to wear yellow. It makes the crowd look unified. If they REALLY want people to wear yellow, they should find a sponsor and sell yellow shirts for 2 bucks or better yet give them away. It seems like 75% of the dome is wearing Bison gear. I don't wear yellow in public. Green looks better. But at games I'm in yellow.

EDIT: FYI - Some yellow shirts for sale right now at the union for 2 bucks...some sort of fundraiser for on campus groups. Out in front of the bookstore.

[BisoninNWMN]

I'm in!!

Be wearing my usual yellow Bison polo!!


GO BISON

Agree with this assessment 100%

[HerdBot]

Hell look at your picture of the dome on your profile. Its so dark you can't even see the top rows, except yellow, and some parts have a shadow. With the new lights, the dome would look insanely bright.

[TheBisonator]

GAWD, what a bunch of vaginas you guys are. "I don't wanna wear yellow!! Waaaa-waaaa!! Where's my juice??" Jeezus, are we THAT soft of a fan base where we can't even have a color-out game once in a while??

Are we North Dakota State fans or Harvard fans?? CMON!!!

[Bison03]

Everyone wearing the same color looks awesome. Just look at when the big schools do it in any sport. Here is my list of wants when it comes to the crowd at football games:

Best: Everyone wearing yellow and cheering like mad giving us the ultimate home field advantage.

Better: Everyone wearing some sort of Bison gear and cheering.

Good: Wear whatever colors you want and just cheer for the LOVE OF GOD!!!!

Just a thought----Have a green out.

You guys are the whiners, and for once I agree with PL.

[EndZoneQB]

Just a thought----Have a green out.

Exactly. Why is this not even an option?

[BisoninNWMN]

They asked for yellow.....then wear yellow.

Personally, I could care less what color.

Having a stadium full of fans with the same color or jersey on would look pretty frickin cool.

[56BISON73]

Exactly. Why is this not even an option?

Because they want to go against the flow. Then they can bitch and cry because NDSU just cant be like Penn State etc etc etc.
Like a color out is really going to make a difference. All it will do is give people boners who think its cool.:facepalm2: :D

[Gully]

How about a green out one week and a yellow out the next week and see which one looks better?

[EndZoneQB]

Makes sense. Stealing the idea is kosher, but god forbid you happen to choose a similar color!

[scheelsguy]

Wear what you want, GOLD, YELLOW, GREEN, BLACK, GREY, it doesn't matter I suppose. If you want to be a part of something, part of the team of 19,000, part of the begining of something special, a part of NDSU history, then earn your position! Stand and shout on third down, get up and cheer for that first down, and for the sake of all thats holy, act like you want to be there and support your team! Thats the point.

Point is, let's unify. If they asked for green, I'd be right there in my green long-sleeve despite the fact that I'd be one sweaty mofo. If they asked for white, I'd be there in my 2009 volleyball conference champions shirt that is comically tight and not at all flattering. If they asked for black, I've got a pull-over I can do.

[56BISON73]

Hell...I have a raging boner just thinking about it.

Green or yellow.:D

[NDSUFREAK]

wow talk about people on this board being stubborn...just wear yellow or gold!! is it that hard for at least one game to wear it? for goodness sakes. wear the damn color

The only time a color-out works is when the team jerseys are available in that color. I am not going to a Bison fb game unless it's in my Bison football jersey. If the jerseys were yellow, I bet it would be really easy to get everyone to wear that color. Until then, it's never going to happen.

Ive seen a yellow jersey. I dont know from what era it came from but it was ugly.

Who started this yellow shit anyway?:) Why not just wear green. That is the teams jersey color.

Green doesn't show up well, even with the Dome's new lighting. It needs to be a bright color that POPS out.

Plus the school's alma mater gives yellow top billing. :D

Thats your opinion. My opinion says green. Plus you got a better chance with a green out than yellow. So if you really want a color out you better go green.:)

PL, you can't fight this one and win. NDSU asked for yellow. You don't want to do it...that is your business...but this is a team thing, not an individual thing. If memory serves, you have a yellow shirt just waiting to be worn. :D

Who cares what the student wear?
The students can wear what ever they wish. Its not like they are fashion trend setters.
Hey that would work out well. The students wear yellow and everyone else wear green. That way the student will stand out for at least that game. Just about midway through the season not many will be at the games anyway if history is any judge.

NDSU asked for people to wear gold.....

Just to be difficult, I may wear yellow, but will have my green polo in reserve.

[4mcruenomore]

I think as far as marketing, they should worry about getting some games on actual TV, I could care less what color the crowd is wearing. I am also more worried about our product on the field.

[56BISON73]

NDSU asked the people to wear yellow. Why fight it?

Have you done everything NDSU has asked you?:D Or is this one of those selective things?:)
If you look at the crowd in the FD the majority arent wearing yellow except for the student section.

I think yellow sucks. The teams home jerseys are green. Thats what I will go with. I myself wouldnt expect anyone to wear yellow to a home game. But if some want to wear yellow its fine by me. The important thing is that they are at the game. What they wear isnt important.

[DjKyRo]

I think as far as marketing, they should worry about getting some games on actual TV, I could care less what color the crowd is wearing. I am also more worried about our product on the field.

The marketing people who are pushing the yellow out have no control over the TV contracts, so saying they have bigger things to worry about. The folks who came up with the idea are in charge of making the atmosphere at Bison games enjoyable. I doubt they have much control over the product on the field, either.

[Bison53]

Well, instead of trying to force people to wear one color, why don't we start with people actually wearing NDSU gear?

The row i'm half don't wear any bison garb. Got to train them.

[aces1180]

Speaking of green, I think the Herd should wear their road pants with their home jerseys for homecoming...

Well, you know football's getting close when we get into a giant pissing match about what to wear to the dome. :D

[MNLonghorn10]

Having a stadium full of fans with the same color or jersey on would look pretty frickin cool.

news flash, its cool with 100,000 people. its not cool with 15000 and blue seats.

[AjaxTheMighty]

Well, I'm wearing yellow as I always do. I tailgate with the Jersey and strip to yellow in the dome! Just do it. It adds to the atmosphere and makes game days more fun. Look at how freakin cool it looks in Nebraska. I know, "they have red Jerseys." You got your little jersey from Santa and you sleep with it. It's admirable. Not really, but maybe you feel like you are one of the players by wearing your jersey. Or you think Santa will stop delivering NDSU gear if you don't wear it. Or you think that you are more of a Bison-Patriot for wearing it. Or more realistically you are sure your mother will catch you NOT wearing that gift "Santa" gave you. Or you don't want to break a streak. Or you bought that Jersey and dammit you look sexy in it. I don't know. Wear your yellow. I think once you go yellow...you don't go..back...that doesn't rhyme, but this monologue is getting long, and I forgot what I was talking about.

[56BISON73]

Edited for my pleasure. :)

AS long as you know where I stand on the issue.:rofl: :rofl:

[CHADSTAUS]

I dont give a s#&t what people wear. NO BLUE SEATS!!!!!!!

[17>1]

The only thing I can control is myself, and I'll support this. Personally, I like seeing the unified crowd and if it's yellow they want, I'll wear yellow. I also think that if people at least wear something representing NDSU, I don't care what color it is. Better seeing alot of yellow and splotches of green than blue seats. The important thing is the noise we can create as a crowd, and clapping and screaming, and stomping your feet is more important than what color shirt you're wearing. Is it Sept. 3rd yet? Go Bison!!!

You guys need to relax...At Va Tech we have Orange, Maroon & White outs. THey are a chance for the book store to make some money. Buy the cheap $10 shirt and enjoy. 65K dressed in Orange looks good!

[bisonfan08]

I can't believe this has gone on this long, so just for good measure I'm gonna post to keep it goin. It's one game, it's an opener, they want to see yellow, I'll wear yellow. You want to know why they want yellow instead of green, look at the pic at the top of this entire forum, I can count how many green shirts I can see, but it's a sea of yellow. It's just more recognizable regardless of the lighting.

PS - I think the dome put new lights in so it looks better when we host a playoff game this year on ESPN!!!!!! Let's yellow out then and blind every damn person on TV as payback for that tampon red field we had to watch a game on last year.

Really don't see why that's necessary. This is the marketing department trying to put together a hostile environment for games.

Do we really need a hostile environment for Lafayette? The Bison should dominate them by 30.

[4mcruenomore]

Maybe I'll wear my Bills jersey, that way I will match the seats.

[AjaxTheMighty]

The Old timers DO struggle with this yellow-out thing don't they?? Kind of set in their ways. Same group who uses the word "gay" to describe wearing yellow. I never considered the OTHER color of my alma mater "gay". You can't change their minds so we should stop begging the few who can't be convinced. Just tell as many as you can who are attending the game. Maybe tell as many gay people as you can so we can get a bunch of yellow in the seats.

[4mcruenomore]

I never said yellow was gay, the concept and threads every year on the issue are gay, or GHEY for the liberal PC crowd on bisonville.

[tcbison]

I think they only way they get people to all wear yellow is if free tshirts are handed out or put on each seat. There will always be people wearing green or other colors.

Also, if they actually get people to wear yellow then at the Gopher game everyone will wear yellow when they should be wearing green.

[aces1180]

Let me put this in perspective:

I paid $225 for each of my #11 Nike authentic jerseys, $125 for my old #11 Wilson authentic. Each gets worn maybe 5-6 times a year (I don't wear them any other time). I want to get a return on my investment. It was my decision to spend that much on them and I'm not complaining or bragging about the cost, but this is why I don't want to wear a $2 yellow t-shirt to the game.

Yellow isn't the issue, it's the fact that I have made a significant investment on green and white game-day jerseys. Like I said, if the Bison wore a yellow home jersey and Scheels sold an authentic #11, I would buy it and be happy to participate in a yellow-out game. Until then, however, I will stick with my tradition of wearing green or white to games.

[No_Skill]

WTF is a "Rebook" I do have a yellow jersey also, but I will be wearing GREEN! Let's let this thread die, every year some idiot starts the same exact one, "hey guys, let's all wear yellow and be gay"

Have you tried being gay? Maybe you'd like it.

[56BISON73]

Yellow makes PL and me look a little "puffy".

Green is more flattering on us. ;)

I look puffy in black.:)

I agree. But if we had 19k people who all had authentic Jersey's it would be a travesty to replace them with $2 yellow shirts. Maybe you should go and buy a yellow hat, yellow flag, and yellow tights. Ok, maybe not the tights. That would be GHEY.

Green doesn't show up well, even with the Dome's new lighting. It needs to be a bright color that POPS out.

Plus the school's alma mater gives yellow top billing. :D

But the first line in the song... "a cheer for the Green & the Yellow"

[80ALUM]

Have you done everything NDSU has asked you?:D Or is this one of those selective things?:)
If you look at the crowd in the FD the majority arent wearing yellow except for the student section.

I think yellow sucks. The teams home jerseys are green. Thats what I will go with. I myself wouldnt expect anyone to wear yellow to a home game. But if some want to wear yellow its fine by me. The important thing is that they are at the game. What they wear isnt important.

For some reason TAB is partial to yellow. Think he has a coat that color or am I thinking of someone from another profession?

A yellow out would be awesome. Just wear a yellow t-shirt for the first half and then put the green jersey on during second half. You can wear your green jersey the entire time during tailgate before and after. What is amazing is how difficult this all seems to be. Its like getting Vigen to come up with a passing game!

[TransAmBison]

A yellow out would be really cool. At least the people on here wear gameday colors (excluding CAS...but he's been hit on the head a lot so he gets a pass). It is just sad when I see the older generation wearing their plaid shirts etc. I know my dad would never wear a sweatshirt/t-shirt. He couldn't even imagine wearing a cap that had been bought when you could get a free one at the elevator.

It would be nice if everybody could get the team thing and all wear yellow but it just isn't going to happen. Too many want to do what they want for themselves.

Face it, there is absolutely no good reason to not wear yellow if a yellow out was asked for and promoted. I haven't seen a lot of promotion, though.

Thanks for the Pantone color references. Just might come in handy if I can get the Multimedia department at work to do some illustrations for me. There is only one employee in that department that gives a rip about SDSU.

A couple years back there were some radio stations giving out hundreds of yellow t-shirts. Just need to do this times about 20.

This was good and it got a lot of yellow shirts out there, but they need to reach those that don't tailgate. Personally, the only way I see this happening is having a yellow shirt sitting on each seat and then instructions given to put it on.

Another approach would be advertising on radio, tv, newspaper.

Lesser approaches will get lesser results. At least the students don't have silly excuses...but they just need to stay for the whole game...without silly excuses.

I wouldn't use that word per se, but I do think they are lame. Just as I think the idea of "yellow out" is lame when our home jerseys are green.

The "gay" idea sad already been discussed today. I won't deny snuggies are more of a feminine item:)

2 options,

1) Write on every ticket, remember to wear yellow.
2) Raise ticket prices $2 to subsidize 1 "free" t shirt per person per game.

Obviously the t-shirt isn't free but it would solve the problem. Our Green is a terrible 'out' color. It has to be a lighter color white would be acceptable, if not white then black, but that doesn't make sense with us.

I don't think the Fargodome (both the building and the crowd) are the right places to create the intimidating "white-out" factor that they get in Happy Valley. Honestly, check out this link and tell me that the FD has anything in common with anything in this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6hIQiDkz6s&feature=fvwrel

hint: the both have football is the only answer


What's next? WE ARE, ND STATE! ?

[stevdock]

How about we come up with something original that is distinctly OURS? Give EWU all the crap you want but that Red Turf is absolutely theirs. The color outs have been done everywhere.

How about our thing becomes kick the crap out of every team that we play. Ya know like we did in the 80's.

Good idea but like cas said they already sent out the tickets but it is a great idea for the future. Green is a terrible color for "outs". I thought the new dome lights would take care of the problem but the seats are actually DARKER now since they point the lights on the field now and away from the stands. Any light color would be an improvement over green.

I agree. And I understand the people who say, "Hey I spent $150 on a green jersey, I want to wear it at the game." I get that. But it's one game that they are actively trying to get all yellow. You can handle one game wearing yellow. Do you think people in Happy Valley take stands like that when Penn St calls for a white out? Hell no. They go with the flow. And I'm sure a couple people in this crowd opted to buy an authentic blue jersey.

[Bison06]

I completely agree with the towel idea. Actually the towels can have even more of the effect we are looking for than the shirts.

Also, these "outs" aren't just because they look cool. I know I have said this plenty of times in the past, but it really helps motivate the players and can be intimidating to the away team to see such an organized crowd.

The benefits to these types of ideas, color "outs", themed games etc. are numerous. From play on the field being affected to recruits being at a game and seeing a great atmosphere. It simply makes for an all around better experience for people.

[mnriverbison]

What I really like is when the crowd alternates colors every other section. So an entire section of green with the next section all in yellow. I've seen it before, they just write on the tickets "please where xxxx color" to the game. Looks really badass.

[4mcruenomore]

This crap is still going? Really? Ghey

They can make ANYTHING yellow and it would add to the atmosphere. Towels, tshirts, caps, signs, foam fingers, you name it. Heck, why not make all the vendor cups yellow? It just takes some creativity and encouragement to sponsorships and radio stations and a little bit of coordination. A few years ago froggy handed out 1,000 foam fingers but they made then green. Another radio station handed out 500 shirts. How tough would it be for Radio Fargo Moorhead to make 10000 yellow towels at about 50 cents each and get a sponsor to put their name on it and hand them out free at the gate?

[stevdock]

If this is actually something NDSU wants done, they need to get this information out to the ticket holders and the public in general. Outside of this website, I haven't heard a single thing on this.

I would much rather NDSU take on the 12th man aspect. I think of Texas A&M's 12th Man and how they embrace it. I don't ever remember them being great and yet they still sellout every game and it is one of the louder stadiums in the country. For them a 9-2 record is a good/great season but the fans are still doing there part. I think it was the Twins who tried something like this in their commercials a few years ago and I know it got my kids a little more excited about going to the games. If the whole dome is yellow and dead, it's not going to make any difference. If the dome is multi-colored but rocking, that's when you start to make a difference in the game. Difference between a yellow out and a loud dome is yellow out fans have to do it basically on their own with very little outside pressure. A loud dome can be manufactured by play on the field, prompting, etc AFTER people are already in there.

[Tatanka]

Need to remind fans that although they're inside, it's ok for them to use their outside voice. Have a stats board for the crowd (e.g. how many false starts/delay of game penalties). Something to get the crowd roped in to making a difference. Lambeau field :hide: does both of these, which I found interesting although questionably necessary.

Should the crowd make a difference to a well-coached disciplined team? Probably not. Does it make a difference anyway? I would like to think that the repeated false starts by the opposition (in front of the of the student section especially) have something to do with the crowd. Does the "yellow-out" in and of itself intimidate the other team? debatable. Does it help to unify the crowd and help individuals believe they're part of something bigger than themselves? Psychology 101 says probably to likely. Does a large, unified crowd make a difference? Damn straight it does.

[Bisonguy]

How about free yellow towels? Cheap and easy to make. They could find a sponsor and print the gold rush theme on it. Think the Steelers and the terrible towels

Like the Code Green towels they had a few years back where 95% of the people that received them stuffed them in their back pockets and sat on them even when the PA announcer prompted people to wave them?

Anything that requires active participation will be a half-hearted effort by those in the stands. They could give away 20k free yellow t-shirts at the doors, and I wouldn't doubt that 50% of the seats would still have some color other than yellow at game time.

I think having an electric fence wire in the seats is still the best option to get the crowd involved. At worst it would get people to stand up, at best they might actually make some noise.

[Bison"FANatic"]

Noise is contagious. It is fun to watch it start in one part of a section and spread across that section and others. We can all complain about it or we can tactfully each be chearleaders in our areas and it will catch on as the more casual fans see it is ok and fun to be the twelfth man. I could care less about colors as I am not there to look pretty just be loud and it will spread!!!!!

You have challenged me on this point a few times over the years. Maybe it's been too long since you played the game PL, but are you telling me that you don't think crowd noise or the crowd in general plays a role in the outcome of a football game? Home field advantage goes much further than crowd noise. Playing in front of a loud organized crowd absolutely affects the play on the field, to argue any different is preposterous.

Maybe it's been too long since you played the game PL, but are you telling me that you don't think crowd noise or the crowd in general plays a role in the outcome of a football game? Home field advantage goes much further than crowd noise. Playing in front of a loud organized crowd absolutely affects the play on the field, to argue any different is preposterous.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYjxL5IfrFU&feature=related

You're lying to yourself if you say that doesn't intimidate you even a little bit when you walk into a situation like this.

""can be intimidating to the away team to see such an organized crowd.""

This comment was in reference to the fans all wearing the same color. That is what I was referring to.

Have you ever walked or ran out in front of a huge crowd? Huge as in 50-90,000 fans? I have, so dont call me a liar. It may intimidate you. It doesnt me or any FB player that I know. For the life of me I just dont understand why you think that is intimidating? If anything my feeling would be---wow pretty cool-- for about 2-3 seconds. Then its back to business because we got a game to play. If a player is going to be intimidated by a bunch of fans wearing the same color t-shirt how in the hell is he going to play a game against a team all wearing the same jerseys and his opponent weighs 300lbs?

You need ask yourself---whos lying to whose self.

In regards to your query about crowd noise. All I can tell you is I never paid attention to it. Everything was blocked out except for what was happening on the field.

Nope, but I've played in front of 26,000 of the most knowledgable football fans and most organized fanbase I've ever seen at any level, and I've seen the effect it has on players.

It's intimidating to know you've walked into a place that is completely against you. I am secure enough to admit that I've been intimidated by a crowd before. It can be daunting knowing you have that many people on top of you. And if they are organized ie wearing same colors, doing same cheers, being extemely loud, it affects the play on the field. Why else do we call it home field advantage.

You really think home field advantage begins and ends with crowd noise? How many times have I read conversations on this board talking about opposing teams being intimidated when they come to play in the FargoDome, is it because it's so loud? Partly, but that's not completely it. When you play a team with tradition like we have you are playing against the team, the mystique of the success they've had, the crowd, the surroundings, and the fans.

Maybe you just can't be affected, that's fine. That's you. I can guarantee you opposing teams coming into the FargoDome are just a little bit scared already, and when they see a sea of yellow, it only makes it just that more intense.

If the fans don't have an effect on the game, why do we go? That's why I go.

I don't want to argue with you about this, I don't know who you are, but from the respect you get on this board I have no doubt you were a great player for the Bison at one point and if you wore the jersey I have the utmost respect for you, sincerely.

But, if you are honestly telling me that you never noticed crowd noise before, I feel you may be romanticising your football days a bit. Crowd noise affects the best of the best. For an opposing offense it hinders a lot of what you are trying to communicate, for a defense it can lift you to a new level.

If it didn't effect the players, why do we even make noise on third and fourth down?

Many fans go to a game because they love to watch college FB. Many go because the love Bison FB. Many go to support there team.

You are the first person I have ever heard that has said that the reason they go to a game is because they think they have a material effect on the out come of a game. So please dont paint every fan with that brush stroke. Also dont paint every player as being intimidated just because you had difficulty with it. Why you had problems with it I dont know. But since this debate first came up a few years ago I have asked many of my former team mates and players from other eras about this issue. Not one said it effected their play. Most just scoffed when I asked the question.
I at least now know why you feel the way you do.

[Bison06]

I now why you feel the way you do.

I think if a lot of fans were honest with you they would say they feel they have an effect on the outcome of the game.

You never answer any of my questions. If you don't feel like you affect the players on the field at all, why do you make noise on third and fourth down?

Every player is affected in some way by the crowd and the atmosphere of the game.

Don't mistake me saying I was intimidated as me being scared. I played in some damn big games for some great Bison teams.

Maybe intimidated is the wrong word, affected may be the correct word.
Why do you have a hard time admitting that the crowd has an affect on a player. It seems a lot with players after their career tend to do that and the longer you haven't played the tougher you were.

Maybe the players you played with and against were just unflappable, that may be true I wasn't there to see it. But, I have seen the eyes of the opposing team when they step into the FargoDome and have lined up against them when the crowd is going nuts and trust me, the look in their eyes was fear and confusion.

I think we all want the same thing here. A homefield advantage that has opposing coaches sitting in meeting rooms telling their teams they better get ready because they are coming to Fargo this weekend. Maybe we just have different opinions on the specifics on how to make that happen.

Maybe this is a better question for you. What would you like to see in the FargoDome to create a better homefield advantage for our guys?

That is intimidating. I think Clausen probably felt like shit looking up and seeing 100,000 people in white rock out around him.

[4mcruenomore]

I find it hard to believe that PL is yet again going to cause a stink, lol.

[tony]

Yelling, hooting, and carrying on is a foreign concept to most attendees at an NDSU football game. One way to overcome that obstacle is to have abundant signals that the FargoDome is not a church, a mall, or an airport terminal. Maybe having people dressed like they aren't going to one of those places is a start to getting around those inhibitions.

PL has made it abundantly clear that he doesn't think having everybody wearing yellow would be intimidating. Of course it isn't. A FargoDome filled with 19000 having a good time and letting loose could be intimidating though - and it'd certainly be more fun.

[4mcruenomore]

I agree with PL on the yellow thing. I do disagree with him though on crowd noise not being a factor. If that was the case, then teams wouldn't practice with loud music etc...before going to certain arena's to play. I do believe that people look back on their playing days and dramatize it a bit imo. Not taking anything away from you PL, I respect you as a former player, don't get me wrong please.

[AjaxTheMighty]

Wow, one former player saying the crowd had no effect, another saying it did. If crowd plays no role in the game, then I guess everyone on here who cries about the dome being too quiet or not getting on their feet have nothing to whine about (including me). We have zero effect on the game so who cares then? Please don't force others into cheering anymore on 3rd down. It's only for our own pleasure or preference that we beg others to stand and be loud.

[Gully]

I think the crowd does have an effect on the game (3rd down false starts, for example) and you sometimes see defensive players waving their arms to encourage the crowd to get loud (the home team QB doing the opposite). At the same time I doubt that players are "intimidated".

The crowd may also play a role in "amping up" a defensive players addrenaline but I'm not sure. From the stands at least, it appears that players feed off of the crowds energy. The reverse is most certainly true....that the crowd feeds of the players energy. Nothing better that Roehl dragging tacklers 10 yards of Joe Mays laying down a big hit. After all, Bohl does encourage the fans to get loud and encouraged fans to "participate".

So I'd conclude that it does have tangible impacts on the game but that only goes so far.

[tjbison]

Players can feed off the vibe from the crowd, some dont, some do. I for one was one that loved a pumped up and cheering crowd. Now for teams like RMU, St. Francis, CCSU etc...who play in front of terrible crowds of 3K or less sure as hell can get frustrated in front of 19,000 cheering fans. It does make a difference, I will also say that most teams adjust and by the 2nd half probably doesnt have the same effect.

[56BISON73]

Not taking anything away from you PL, I respect you as a former player, don't get me wrong please.

I will make a concession on this as I never played in a domed stadium and the acoustics are certainly different than an open air stadium playing outside. My only question is do 16-18,000 fans in a dome make more noise than 87-100,000 people in an outdoor stadium? Conventional wisdom says no but I may be wrong.

I understand where you are coming from on the dramatization of ones playing career or more importantly the facts surrounding that era. Because of that fact I have really tried to look at the past as honestly as possible and post accordingly. It serves no one well to post a bunch of bullshit just to make one feel better about himself. I have found that those who may be insure in their accomplishments or lack there fore of have a tendency to embellish the most, if you get my drift.

So no I am not taking you wrong and understand what you are saying.

[Notorious]

I'll take a shot at this...

Playing with much more emotion, defensive players are probably more likely to feed off the noise and energy created by a loud crowd. On the flip side, disciplined, "business-like" offensive players really don't even know the crowd is there. Quite honestly, I would venture to guess that the only time offensive players really notice the crowd is after a big play/score.

SO....both PL and 06 are probably right. But not 4M...he's never right!! ;)

What the h### do you know? :D

Seriously though, I do agree. I would be willing to bet 56 never noticed the crowd unless somebody was waving a sausage around.

Really serious now, I have seen false starts caused, at least partially, by the crowd. Partially you might ask? Well, the crowd is just one more factor to deal with on a big play. Deep in your own territory and you need x amount of yards and it is hard to hear...it has to play a factor to some players. Then there are the undisciplined players that jaw back and forth with the fans and they lose their focus on the game.

Have I ever personally been responsible for anything on the field? No way, but I was part of the crowd who has been responsible for false starts, etc. This has not happened often, but it has happened. Experiences like this and the energy in the building/stadium makes it worth going to the game. If you are going for the best view you might as well stay home and watch it on tv.

[CAS4127]

My turn. As a defensive player, I loved big, loud crowds, whether we were home or away. Home games were awesome cuz you knew the crowd was your own and they knew who you were. Away games were fun because, as defensive player, I wanted them to know who the eff I was by the time the game was done. Loved it, and was not intimidated in the least. My concerns came from knowing we were going to be playing a good team, and that we had better have our shit together.

I was also on kickoffs, kickoff return, punts and punt return teams and, again, a loud crowd was preferred.

I never played offense in college, so I really can't comment on how it may or may not effect offensive players, but clearly crowd noise can and does effect undisclined offense players or a generally undisciplined team. Plus, there is the saying often used "That drive just took the crowd out of this game". Example from last year, Western Illinois kicked our asses with at least a couple of long, sustained drives, and the crowd was definetly taken out of the game by them. They came into a hostile homecoming crowd, and methodically pounded us, to the point people were leaving early.

That's all!

The weak sauce fans that dominate the fargodome are usually easily intimidated. They are too busy soclalizing, reading, knitting and buying food for themselves and their kids to worry about the game. Those that come to give an occasional golf clap get pissy at those who stand on important downs and cheer. The next step is to go complain to security about all this out of place cheering going on. Then Security feels compelled to respond to this so called rude game behavior by aggressively pursuing real fans like criminals on an episode of cops. This is the sad truth. :mad:

[bisonfan08]

Yeah I dunno what happened last year, I remember when I was a Freshman and Sophomore if you didn't show up at least a half hour before game time, your in the nosebleed section. Now students roll in 5 mins before game time and sit in the first couple rows. Getting close to 15,000 students, which is almost enough to fill the whole dome and they can't fill 3 sections, kinda sad actually. Think the fact that the students have to get tickets now has anything to do with it? I know when I was going to school we just walked through and they swiped our card. Students might be reserving tickets then not going cuz friends couldn't get tickets and not releasing them or somethin like that? I dunno what the issue is, but it needs fixing.

First, we will buy a bottle of Patron for ourselves, drink most of it, and then fill it with some bottom shelf Takillya and head out with shot glasses hanging on beads--get the pic so far??!! We can bring Note along to "occupy" the heavy ones, and AG for the gay guys that the hot women normally tend to hang with!!

No need to refill it with "bottom shelf" tequila when the bottle comes full of said bottom shelf tequila when sealed from the factory!

My usual practice of walking around shouting "I love country music" has gotten me laid thrice in the past fourteen minutes.

This is why I both hate and love North Dakota.
