Who you hoping for, Jacks or Buy outs?

[MNLonghorn10]

Im rooting for Montana St.

Ive lost track of how many times NDSU's beaten SDSU in a row so it'd be nice to see some fresh blood here.

MSU probably used their buy out money to outbid SDSU for this particular moment just to earn themselves a trip to Fargo if they win. Funny how the world works.

[marenlee]

I get more excited for playing "new" teams. Was hoping to see them in Fargo last year but they blew that opportunity.

[IBleedYellow]

The Bobcats are who I want to see, but they will get ROLLED by the Rabbits next week. No contest.

Agree. NDSU already swept the state of South Dakota. Might as well finish the rest of Montana.

Bring on The Short Tails. The can't buy this one out conversation would be epic

[taper]

I would much rather play MSU, but with all the noise we MVFC fans made this and last year about the number of teams we get in, all 5 need to win their first game.

[NDSUstudent]

Bring on the Bobcowards.

[EC8CH]

So is the first round game in Bozeman?

Yep....It's all about $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

[Hail bison]

MSU. SDSU bores me

[HerdBot]

I would rather play Montana State just because I want some payback for the buyout game but they will get beaten by SDSU by 4 TD's.

[NDSUstudent]

Wonder if Montana State's starting QB will be back? If so they could go get into a high scoring game, he seems like a QB that could give SDSU some issues.

SDSU's defense is mediocre.

[heffray]

As much as I'd rather play MSU, I think I've decided that I will root for all the Valley teams until they have to play us... UNI included...

[CentennialBison]

SDSU will make Montana State look like a high school team.

[bisonmike2]

MSU. Just so we can say we own the entire state of Montana.

[DIBISON]

Doesn't matter to me, it will be one or the other, as the winner of that game will play the Bison.

[HerdBoy]

Montana State. Jacks will probably kill them though.

[Bison03]

I'll take the kitty cats. SDSU will not be intimidated by the dome. MSU has never played there. If we do play the Jacks, this senior class will have an opportunity to have a 6-0 record against them with a win.

[semobison]

Montana State would be an easier game, so I hope they beat SDSU! I like our side of the bracket though, our toughest game until Frisco may very well be the Jacks!

So it's recycle or abuse. (Calm down izzy)

[CaBisonFan]

Not wishing bad things for SDSU...but I'd like to see the Bison play Montana St.

[thebigund]

I want to see what your d could do to MSUs qb. We beat him up and held them below 100 rushing yards. It could be a massacre in the FargoDome

[56BISON73]

Montana State. Had a great time when we were there and their fans were nothing but friendly and classy before and after the game.

[NDSUstudent]

Zenner is going to run all over MSU, the Bobcats only hope is that their starting QB comes back and the Jacks defense can't stop him.

[CaBisonFan]

Will ticket sales be affected by this...or will the tickets already be gone by the time we know who the opponent is?

Montana State is a tough match up for the Jacks with their passing game and dual threat QB.

Montana State's defense is porous so it will be interesting how the Jacks running game goes.

Looks like we've solved our student attendance for the playoff games then! Should we be fortunate enough to make it to the semi-finals, hoping the students will hang around for that game before going home. Friday night game there would help immensely.

The Friday afternoon tailgates are just awesome too! In past years I've loved being able to sit back and watch the other games on Saturday knowing we've secured our spot in the next round. I know Bohl didn't necessarily like Friday night as its one less day to prepare and is maybe gets us out of our routine, but it would be great to have both Friday night games should we get that far.

Without digging up the numbers from last season... I believe the Coastal game on ESPN had over a million viewers. Easily trouncing the ratings on any of our Friday night ESPN2 games.

I'd like to play the buy-out pussies but I want Missouri Valley to blow everyone away!

[Jude3]

I want us to play the kitties. How satisfying would it be to pour on an absolute drubbing after they bought out a game against us?! Also, it would once again show our domination in all of the states of Montana, North & South Dakota, Minnesota, and Kansas. Hopefully next year we could add Iowa to the list.

[FFBison]

I'd like to play the buy-out pussies but I want Missouri Valley to blow everyone away!

This is the truth...its probably best for the conference and NDSU if we end up playing the bunnies, but personally I'd rather face Montana St. I know everyone wants revenge against UNI, but I'm just fine with them on the other side of the bracket. I like where we're sitting with this #2 seed. Maybe some added motivation with UNH ahead of us. But...you know darn well Vegas wouldn't favor UNH. In any event, its best if all the MVFC teams win at least one game.

[StL Bison Fan]

I believe in the GA Southern Karma rule.
The end...

[Bison Loaf]

You mean the EWU air attack that went 13-32 for 141yds? It wasn't the passing attack that did us in. Taiwan Jones was what gave us trouble. Playing prevent D at the end of regulation was not the best call. Giving up kick return TD's sucked.

NDSU has faced better passing attacks since then.

Oh wow...Trumane Thompson and Kevin Lockett are both better than Cooper Kupp. There's a reason Kupp is playing FCS football. And their slot guy (Sexson) or something like that was legit too. This statement is ridiculous. Again...if EWU could have won games in the playoffs the last couple years, they would have already faced NDSU. They'll have a potential shot again, but they'll have to get through the rest of the MVFC teams before facing us.

Sounds like Kupp's younger brother is pretty impressed with NDSU by the way.

I'm trying to find tickets at the moment. They're not easy to come by. At the very least, I will tailgate.

[BisonNeil]

I like new meat in the Dome so for that reason alone I would like to see Montana State come to town.

However, the Jacks also scare me to death and I think on NDSUs side of the bracket they are clearly the greatest threat to getting to Frisco. They are used to playing in the dome, and Austen Sumner carved up the Bison pretty good at times despite an 8 week layoff. Despite being immobile the Bison rarely got pressure on him as the Jacks have a good OL. Zenner also almost got 100 yds and the Bison are down one stud LB.

No question I want the Bobcats, but it will never happen. The Jacks may beat them worse than the Griz did last week.

They might but if Montana State's QB (Prukop) is playing, they will be tough to beat in Bozeman. He is a very good dual threat QB.

The Jacks might win but I think MSU does.

Well, I believe that this is only the 5th playoff appearance IN PROGRAM HISTORY for the bunnies (but 3rd in a row). So, given the lack of precedent, I think they'd have to be classified as neither right now (and that's not intended to be smack).

Not taken as smack. Some teams are notorious for folding, others for stepping up. Well see where the bunnies fall

Kentucky is flat out amazing.

All that ball talk aside, back to the thread. Sorry for my participation in the thread drift. I am hoping for the Buyouts. I hate playing conference foes in the playoffs. We should have great signs in the crowd for them in the unlikely event they get by the Jacks.

Yes. Sumner and Zenner is a potentially dangerous combination.

The loss of Travis will affect our pass defense more than our run stopping. I think there will be an adjustment period that we can't duplicate in practice.

I'd prefer not having that happen against a team that offers a dual threat.

MSU is more one-dimensional IMO.

[BisoninNWMN]

Geez, it sounds like SDSU is going to roll us if we happen to meet up again.....:facepalm:

MSU is not 1-dimensional: They average 240 passing and 248 rushing. Their QB is what makes them go. Like I said, if he is healthy, SDSU is going to have a hard time winning in Bozeman.

I'm not worried about either one. MSU doesn't match up well with the Bison and SDSU needed a hail mary pass to take a lead in the 1st half.

[MNLonghorn10]

Kentucky would be a .500 team in the NBA.(And their whole team will probably be there next year).

As for MSU, they play in the Fluffy so those stats matter little. I'd rather play the Kitties because I think SDSU has a chance to hang with us longer and that can be dangerous.

Prukop is their leading rusher. Their running backs are physical but Prukop is the biggest threat running when he pulls the ball down. I would have liked to see how he did against the Grizzlies. That defense was on fire Saturday. I'm not sure Prukop has been in a game where defense is even part of the game, so I think he would fold under constant pressure.

Bring on MSU, let's play somebody we can't get to play us unless they're forced to.

Yep...and the Raiders would pound "take your pick of your favorite CFB team". Everyone that plays for the Raiders was a stud in college...well, I'm pretty sure anyway! College sports has no comparison to professional sports. Bigger, stronger, faster.

[BisonNation11]

Bring on the Kitties! New blood in the dome is always fun to watch. I have no fear of either team but I do respect SDSU a lot more. They're built to be successful this time of year. Good thing going for the Bison is the bye week and being able to spend time with family for the holiday. We should get CJ back at full strength, Dudz and Heags should be back to 100% and whoever else was playing nicked up. Bring on the Fluffy!

Northern, I always respect and appreciate your opinion and agree with most of what you say here, except the bolded. I think the game could have been MORE than the 20 point difference. Carson threw an intercept right away that led to 3 points for them, and then we had to settle for 2 field goals in the first half due to a slow start by the "O" again. If we were able to start the game like we did against Youngstown, I think we are capable of rolling the Jacks even worse than we did.

I do agree, however, that they are the more dangerous team. They know us too well. Let them hang around and they can be a problem.

On the other hand, I have no respect for Montana State. If we are lucky enough to see them, it's going to be an absolute ass-kicking from the get-go.

I think someone may have mentioned this earlier, but I don't want to test fate with Zach Zenner anymore. If we end up playing them again, we'll hopefully contain him as we always have. But I'd rather know he's played his last game against the Bison already. The dome atmosphere will be much tougher on Montana St than SDSU. Hoping MSU can get the win at home as much as I'd like to see the MVFC win and the Big Fluffy lose.

I'm hoping we get the pussy cats, but I expect to see the bunnies again.

It will be nice to see Zenner and Sumner go 0-6 vs. the Bison in their careers.

[Bisonator98]

Bring on the "buyouts"!:biggrin:

I'm tired of beating the jacks. The PO's are a time to beat up on new teams! GO BISON!!!

[1998braves64]

Hate to see a mvfc team lose first round but want bobkitties to get paid their dues for last year.

Welcome to the Fargodome...
No where to run
No where to hide
No way to buy out

Will this be a sign?

[bisonfanette]

Will this be a sign?

YES! :nod:

[EC8CH]

Will this be a sign?

Kitties gotta earn it first.

An improved version would be:

Playoffs in the FargoDome:
No where to run
No where to hide
No way to buy out

[bisonfanette]

Kitties gotta earn it first.

Right! Just think of the possibilities!

[Bison Bridge Guy]

If this makes it onto a sign, please spell it right! (Nowhere)

Geez, it sounds like SDSU is going to roll us if we happen to meet up again.....:facepalm:

MSU is not 1-dimensional: They average 240 passing and 248 rushing. Their QB is what makes them go. Like I said, if he is healthy, SDSU is going to have a hard time winning in Bozeman.

I'm not worried about either one. MSU doesn't match up well with the Bison and SDSU needed a hail mary pass to take a lead in the 1st half.

Yep, I wouldn't be shocked if MSU beat SDSU if their QB is healthy. Running QBs have given SDSU some issues this year and he is one of the best dual threat QBs in the FCS. That said SDSU will score a lot of point on MSU's defense, Zenner should run wild against them. I hope both teams are healthy, would make it a fun game to watch.

Forfeit?.....

NDSU: Four-peat
MSU: For-feit

Not enough time to photoshop today but someone can put an MSU jersey on this:

SDSU concerns me, as they know us so well. Their young receivers are good and with Sumner back and more mobile than he was the first game it could be interesting. I want to see someone new in the dome so the Bobkitties it is for me.

[MSUcats91]

I want to see what your d could do to MSUs qb. We beat him up and held them below 100 rushing yards. It could be a massacre in the FargoDome

Uhh... not sure who "we" is, but nobody has held MSU under 100 yards rushing this year including Arkansas State. Are you from UND? They came close, I'll give you that.

[Bison bison]

Uh, Bobcat. 62<100.

[MSUcats91]

Montana State. Had a great time when we were there and their fans were nothing but friendly and classy before and after the game.

Appreciate that - I had a blast talking with NDSU fans during that 2010 game as well. Nothing but good people.

[MSUcats91]

Uh, Bobcat. 62<100.

Am I looking at the wrong line??
UND MSU
Yards Gained Rushing........ 112 122

[Bison bison]

Yes.

You should be looking at net yards.

The craziest was some guy blocked us from getting out of the tailgate lot with his pick up. Gets out of the truck, comes over to the bus , I open the door, he gets on the bus and then tells us thanks for coming to Bozeman, it was a great game and wishes us luck in our next game. He goes back and gets in his pick up and waves good bye.

Ha, that's great. I remember being really surprised at how well you guys traveled. Really impressive!

And this is why no one cares about the Big Fluffy stats - they only take credit for the plays that go forward...

Bunnies could be scary. You can only beat a team so many times until they figure it out...or get lucky. I'd rather take on someone who deserves their first Bison beat-down of the season.

The fun factor says kitties. It would be a great atmosphere.

[SoCalBison]

I always want to see NDSU loose. I appreciate the style of play and level of execution but that's where my appreciation ends. At the end of the day I want NDSU to loose, always.

I like NDSU to be loose also. :rimshot:

"Loose": not tight, relaxed, "a loose connection"; "I'm feeling loose."
"Lose": to be defeated, "I didn't think they would lose."

[56BISON73]

Ha, that's great. I remember being really surprised at how well you guys traveled. Really impressive!

The coolest encounter was I was staying at the Wingate. I had come in to town a day early. Get in about 1am. Got up early, put my NDSU hat and tshirt on and went down to the breakfast area for a doughnut. I was sitting there eating my donut when a guy with a silver tipped cane, silver tipped cowboy boots, pressed jeans, nice wool vest, handle bar mustache and cowboy hat comes over and says HI my name is so snd so. I am a MSU Bobcat fan. Wonder if you would like to talk some football. I said sure. So we are talking along and after about 15 minutes I realize that we are surrounded by about 20 people listening to our conversation. At that time I ask the rest to join in. It was great. After awhile the guy mentions that he played for MSU. I asked when and he says 70-74. I asked what position and he say D-line. I said I was the offensive center when you came to Fargo and he goes----that was you? LOL

No kidding! Damn, small world. That's a great story!

[CaBisonFan]

No matter who we play...I just wanna see Bison Football.

[DjKyRo]

I'd like to see Montana State but figure SDSU is going to suffocate them between Zenner and a competent defense.

SDSU should be just a bit concerned about just how crappy MSU played Saturday. I know it's not rational but it seems like teams who stink it up one week have a strong tendency to play way over their capabilities the next time.

I also think you could see a boost if their starting QB is back. I think SDSU getting Sumner back gave them a boost, now that could go against them if Prukop plays for MSU. I watched him play a few times this year, that guy is a handful.

[gizmo]

Bring on MSU. Stomping the bunnies and their overhyped RB is getting boring.

[17>1]

Hoping for MSU, but picking the Jacks to win in Bozeman.

Here, kitty, kitty, kitty....

SDSU is gonna shock the Big Fluffy. No more Bunny's, call them the Shockers!!

meh, itll be just like 2012. Close on the scoreboard score(not really telling the story on the field). complete blow out in the playoffs.

I agree with this^^

I think we play them even better the second time around.
