[roadwarrior]

Coach Bohl was very clear at Teammakers today what our assignment is for saturday afternoon:

"yell like hell"

[Bison"FANatic"]

[aces1180]

[Civil06]

for 60 minutes!

I think you mean 60 minutes less the time the Bison have the ball.

[Vitojr130]

for 60 minutes!

Let's just scream throughout halftime and make it a full 90 minutes of bleeding ears!

[MNLonghorn10]

cant wait. holy hell its gonna be loud. i love the fact that our row has old people behind it who dont give a damn if we stand and scream on 1st or 2nd down. shit they love it

EVERYONE better be standing on EVERY defensive play. We HAVE too make it difficult for them to hear the cadence. This is THE MOST IMPORTANT GAME OF THE SEASON. We NEED to play a role in this one. I can't wait to lose my voice and not recover until January 7th.

My brothers were allowed last week to bring in megaphones or whatever you call those cone-shaped things you holler through. The were probably 12 inches long and 7-8 inches wide at the end. Easily doubled your voice power. Anyone who can find these things, bring them!!

That's a good idea! I think i might have a few at my place. We need to be loud on every down. A 1st & 15 due to a false start can really help out our defense. We need to cause 5 or more false starts or Delay of games on Saturday.

I have one nailed on my walled as a decoration. I should probably bring it!

will we get over 19K?

Wait.... you aren't ALWAYS standing??? At GSU games, we are standing the WHOLE time!

[Strommer10]

Wait.... you aren't ALWAYS standing??? At GSU games, we are standing the WHOLE time!
Not usually, the elderly don't enjoy standing the entire game. The only game that the crowd stood the entire time was the UNI game this season (if memory serves).

[CAS4127]

Wait.... you aren't ALWAYS standing??? At GSU games, we are standing the WHOLE time!

Ya, I noticed that on "Decisions" poster we have seen aaalllll week!! Post it again, hurry, just for serendipity-->you will see the homeless people sitting on their asses on the grassy nole! BOX!!

[roadwarrior]

One more thing Bohl said: please don't do the wave when we are on offense

[CAS4127]

Good, then that will eliminate it completely, as we are going to be standing and yelling when we are on D, everyone is up for the KO's, and there isn't time to otherwise do it-->thankfully!!

[jfergy21]

I can tell you that our section will be loud and proud the whole game! i will try and find one of those mega phone things!

[Strommer10]

Tell the band this... Speaking of that, will the band be there? I know it's technically winter break so I wasn't sure.

ok sorry! The hill is hard to stand on though!! That is mostly families so kids can run around an have fun.

Actually last week vs. Maine the Maine fans were on their feet maybe 5 minutes the entire game! only about 1 minute for every score. lol

[standandyell]

every defensive down!!!!!!!!!

shouldnt have to be said!!

[ndsubison1]

One more thing Bohl said: please don't do the wave when we are on offense

agreed. that was stupid. wait... the wave is stupid all together... it's like playing YMCA by Village People

[roper1313]

One more thing Bohl said: please don't do the wave when we are on offense

Bunch of d-bags in 26. They right across the isle from us and try to get their section to start it all the f'ing time. I've only noticed them during the playoffs so maybe the missed out on tickets this week.

Please don't embarrass thevrest of us on espn, the country thinks we are backwards enough, breaking out the wave only helps the stereotype.

[TransAmBison]

Have you gotten any work done today...or this week for that matter?

[CAS4127]

No, but what does that have to do with "Our assignment"?!!

[17>1]

If we're up 10 in the 4th and a win is only minutes away, I'm starting the wave, regardless of who has the ball. I'll be feeling and acting like a 5 year old on Christmas morning knowing I'm going to Texas.

[Hammerhead]

I've always liked fans that chant during timeouts. At Husky Stadium, the sides alternate shouting Go and Huskies for minutes during the really long video reviews. We used to do that during bball games (except it was Go Bison, of course) at the BSA back in the 80s.

[OnlyBlue]

One more thing Bohl said: please don't do the wave when we are on offense

The wave? What is this?...the '96 Olympics?

[OrygunBison]

Yeah, the wave was pretty cool in Seattle back in 1987. Since then, its been pretty lame in my opinion. I'm not sure that I've really seen it in quite awhile other than at last week's game.

This would be great! Hate to admit it but I like how Montana does the "Montana"...."Grizzlies"! "GO"..."BISON" would sound better though.

To me it's a baseball thing. The games are usually boring enough as there's only action for about a minute of the 3 hours that you sit there. That's the only sporting event where it should be considered. (Soccer would count if I considered it a sport)

[spelunker64]

I thought the wave was pretty cool in a "retro" kind of way. It had great participation as well

[northendzone]

The secret weapon to stopping the wave is to stand the entire game!

Has anyone ever tried a "sit-down" wave? We could call it doing the Tremors.

[BamaBison]

This is the Final 4, probably NDSU's biggest game ever correct?

if the fans cant stand the entire game for this one, then im confused.

[ndsubison1]

bamabison = lakes? he's doing a little better disguising this time

[Tatanka]

A reverse wave?

That is usually the aftermath of Pho-riday.:facepalm2:

I did see bamabison post something about where he works or lives in Alabama. I doubt Lakes knows any towns in Alabama or is incapable of making up one that sounds realistic.

Ryko could you get this going?

[Tatanka]

OK. I've been doing a fine job of maintaining some workplace integrity this week and not getting amped up for the game too early. No longer. It's getting to be go time.

Hope GSU does what Lehigh did and wears brown pants to cover up the stains because when the noise comes they ain't even gonna hear the footsteps. Signals will be crossed. Mistakes will be forced. Doubts will become reality. Which Bison's gonna hit them? ALL OF THEM. Pain will be administered.

IT'S ON.

[roadwarrior]

Yeah, but he made up stuff about all of the other locations he lived - st cloud, etc.

26 was not the place to be Saturday. We were about 5 rows above them being asked to be considerate to those behind us and sit down. I'm hoping to sit in a different section of General Admission this week, so I don't have to deal with that crap again. We will be standing and yelling the whole time on defense though. The people behind us can just yell at us all game, I don't care.

If any ladies would like something that's 12 inches long and 7to 8 inches around to put their mouth around during the football game, give me a call.:biggrin:

/Really, I'm the first to see that? Izzy must be away from his computer.

Ya, right, and Jenna Jamison had the hots for you too!!

How did you know that? Did see tell you? I bet she was bragging about me when she was at the Northern.

[Bison03]

Here i my prediction. Not for the game, yet. But for Game Day Thread. It will of coarse be started at 12 am on saturday, and will reach minimum 25 pages before the game even starts.

[TransAmBison]

How did you know that? Did see tell you? I bet she was bragging about me when she was at the Northern.Something about being so small you should be a sideshow at a carnival.

Pat MacGyver!!

[56BISON73]

Pat MacGyver!!

Now thats funny.

[*Bisonrube]

What PO's me is... We are in Section 21 halfway up. Our entire section stands up and pretty sure we can get them up for all defensive plays. I look over to section 20 (30 yard line) Sections right behind the suites to say row W sit on their ass the whole game...I have yelled get off your asses. I was going to take a picture because the old people are just surrounded and refuse to stand.

Can people makes signs to educate the oldtimers "Bohl requests that Bison Fans stand and cheer the entire time on defense"

We just have to do it one man at a time and hopefully it catches on.

Side story...The UNI game, I was lucky enough to get 5th row 50 yard line tix from Coach Larson. The four of us were the only one standing. The lady said in an "exhausted tone" I can't see the game if you keep standing up. I turned to her and her husband and told them "Coach Bohl told us to stand and cheer like hell, if you don't like it..take it up with him"

[56BISON73]

If our friends from Georgia did that, they'd get soda (coke for you real georgians) all over their laps.

Not to mention the spit from their tabaccy.

I guess its too late to print the instructions on the side of the cup. Not that they could read it.

That sir is brilliant. KISS(keep it simple stupid) I'm gonna use one. Spread the word.

[tojo70]

This would be great! Hate to admit it but I like how Montana does the "Montana"...."Grizzlies"! "GO"..."BISON" would sound better though.
It is pretty impressive. They've done it during the games before, but against UNI they set it up to do it when UNI took the field. IF DJKYRO can get something like this set up to do GO......BISON I think it would be pretty cool. Intimidating to the team taking the field and the Bison getting pumped up hearing it in the locker room right before THUNDERSTRUCK starts playing

I can see about getting the students near me to do something but trying to get something else going in another section is going to be the responsibility of someone else.

Looking at you, section 21. :)

[SamsRams]

The wave? What is this?...the '96 Olympics?

I bet if you poll a million people in the US and ask them, which of these two things is more outdated: The Wave or The Triple Option, 99 out of a 100 would say WTF is the triple option?
But this is coming from someone who is a fan of a team where they have actual seats around the whole stadium. Not just til the 20's and then pay homeless people to sit on the grass so the team feels important

Couldnt even keep the thread on-topic for more than 2 pages before digressing into how great the Eaglettes are, how tough their schedule was, the TO, and my favorite...Alabama. I hope the Eaglettes on the field are as overconfident as their fans seem to be.

What is your obsession with the WAVE? Down here in the south, the wave is ONLY done at the Brave's games!!

No obsession. It was only truely done once in the past 10 years that I recall. The jmu game.

No obsession. It was only truely done once in the past 10 years that I recall. The jmu game.

Only time I sat down at Dacotah Field was when they did the wave.

A reverse wave where everybody is standing and then sits down briefly when the "wave" hits them would look pretty cool.

[SDbison]

I am Sooooooooo pumped for this game. I have been very busy at work all week and somehow kept posting to a minimum. Now ready to head to Fargo at 4 PM and get the party started. The Dome is going to be louder than ever..........and the Bison are going to put a hurt on these southern boys.
