What does NDSU offer College Game Day this Time Around?

[Bison bison]

Make the case for Lee:

Football Related
Three peat complete.
Beat another FBS.

Culture Related:
Corso the calf.
Fargo has a Sonic.

Statoid/Factoid: In NDSU's last 31 games, the team has given up 47 points in the fourth quarter, and no team has scored twice.

[Mr Meaty]

We have Miss USA Runner Up. She could take place of Phil Hansen on the stage.

This ^... That is a big one. Some let Lee know that we officially have a Sonic.

[TransAmBison]

Our state drinks the most beer per capita.

[TNbison]

Good call. She could wear a "Mr. Meaty" T-shirt for you coming up with the idea

[HoopsBison]

Easy answer, the greatest college football program of all time!

[mnriverbison]

Same as last year-especially for Sept/Oct. Massive enthusiasm, a unique setting, etc.

Minot has a Sonic as well, but I don't know if College Game Day is coming there anytime soon.

[Civil06]

We have an open AD position.

[gumby013]

They like the wrestling guest pickers.

We have Bob Backlund.

Longest winning streak in the history of the FCS
More Big12 wins in recent years than Kansas
Continuation of Dominance even after losing the bulk of the coaching staff AND 24 seniors
We are the city that they voted the best CGD experience last season (or something to that effect)

All you can eat soup, salad, and bread sticks.

[El_Chapo]

For montana game could have 20,000 people in west lot on set to BREAK the attendance record of 18,000 "Currently, Mizzou holds the record for*largest attendance*at*College Gameday*with 18,000 in attendance"

A fanbase that will argue amongst themselves and with ESPN about the best location for the Gameday set.

Corso doesn't even care about "Corso" anymore, jerk.

[56BISON73]

But still more than you.
Nice that you are now making disparaging comments about what TM businesses donate when you have no clue what they in fact contribute. :facepalm:

[El_Chapo]

To an earlier question I don't think they've ever gone back to a place in back 2 back years so this is probably a moot point

[MNLonghorn10]

Seriously? classy business move by them. How many thousands do you think go downtown on game week because of the Bison football alone, or what are you hearing from your connections??

[HoopsBison]

No sdbison those downtown businesses have donated thousands...er. hundreds...er..tens since then
Dude seriously quit talking out of your a**, there some good people downtown that donate to NDSU, quit with the douche mover comments when you have nothing to support it.


Thanks

Your bit and gimmick isn't funny and never was, give it a rest.

I have it under very good authority that Corso sits on by his windowsill in his pajamas and sings "Somewhere out there" every night.

I don't know that breaking the record for the largest crowd is necessarily something that is high on the list of priorities for GameDay producers.

[JSUBison]

Business related:

NDSU Gameday had higher than average ratings last year. Higher ratings=$$$ for ESPN.

So when will ESPN announce Gameday will be in Fargo for the Montana game?

[gumby013]

So when will ESPN announce Gameday will be in Fargo for the Montana game?

They generally announce the next week's location on Sunday. They announced us on a Saturday since we were on a bye week.

bison03 I even said "I Don't think" ha ha.

[tjbison]

So when will ESPN announce Gameday will be in Fargo for the Montana game?

Im guessing 9/14 if all the stars align, we really need Montana to win and us too, should be a #1 vs #4 game with us going for win #28 in a row

no reason it wont get looks 2 storied programs and this would fill a non routine show.....lets just all not Bitch at them if they dont or do and pick a funky location for it

[BisonNation11]

So if they do come back, where are everyone's ideas of where they host the show? Do they go downtown again and we make it even bigger this time or do they put it on campus?

[tjbison]

Campus would be my guess, hell the corner of 12th and University with the gate in the background would rock

they might not like the Turf being that close though but imagine the traffic issues with 19th being torn up but that intersection would be cool. I honestly think the city would let them shut down I29 if they asked

[Bison bison]

Start your own thread, BisonNation.

The theme of this thread is in the title.

[BisonNation11]

Um, places to host the show is something NDSU offers... :cool:

Bullshit. This Saturday will be the 6th year in a row that it is hosted in Eugene. They were also in Eugene twice for the 2007 season.

[Bisonator98]

Eh call me crazy but I just don't see Gameday coming back. At least not anytime soon. I don't think it would ever live up to the original, sequels never do.

Yeah, I forgot about the STEM construction.

[kab1one]

How many do you think would go to Gameday if they came back? I personally think the police and media scared away just as many as that came. They kept talking about traffic and parking issues that didn't exist.

How many people did you hear from "I wish I would have went, but didn't go because of parking"? It would be like Frisco, big the first time, then Epic.

[Bison bison]

This. It was extremely well planned and executed, but a bunch of friends (10?) didn't go because of the warnings.

more, even Ternes the police Chief said it went better than thought, a second time around would make the people (like me) who stayed at the tailgate go down. Half my crew went and got back just fine on the busses i was less optimistic so I stayed behind and I know I wasnt the only one

[56BISON73]

Tailgate or Game Day? I vote Tailgate.

[HerdBot]

Voted #4 best tailgating in the US... would look bad ass on tv
Longest winning streak in history
3 straight National Championships
More National Championships than any team on any level since 1960
Opportunity to do something that never been done before. . Four peat
5 straight wins over FBS
One of the best prior shows ever

[Hammerhead]

That's probably the biggest open space on campus if you exclude athletic facilities/practice fields. There might be more room at North High or one of the northside parks.

[NDSUBowler]

If I were a betting man, I'd say NDSU Gameday fits in WAY more vs Incarnate Word than Montana.

I WISH it would be Montana (and am holding out hopes), but there are really no good games the IW weekend so it makes more sense for GD to come here again that weekend.

The average FBS fan won't give two shits if NDSU is playing IW, Montana or Trinity Bible College...Fargo is all about the location and small-town vibe they gave it last year.

[NDSUstudent]

I think Gameday will want a match up of substance this time, otherwise they are kind of telling the same old story again.

Also there aren't exactly a ton of great games the Montana weekend. Only one match up between ranked teams and that involves a team that they have already highlighted on Gameday(FSU) and the other team Clemson has already lost a game.

You better drive by campus and look at this area of campus now. It's torn up, lots of construction, no space. Why not Dakotah Field? It wasn't an option last time because the bleachers looked like crap. Now they look great. Show where we came from and see where we are with the FD right next door.

Actually, It should be the #1 and the #2 ranked FCS teams in the country playing.

NDSU and Montana have 2 cupcakes.
EWU will lose to Washington and drop.
SE Louisiana might lose to FBS Tulane on the road.

That's a pretty good storyline.

[westnodak93bison]

If EWU is "competitive" against Washington I doubt they will drop below MT. I suspect they will get throttled.
