Intentionally lose at ORU?

[El_Chapo]

I DIDNT REALIZE NDSU PLAYED THURSDAY....MAKING THIS NULL & VOID THREAD)

(It's a message board so this scenario is for entertainment only so don't get all snippy and hear me out)

This option is NULL & VOID if USD beats SDSU then NDSU obviously wants to win the title & nit bid.

HOWEVER. ...If SDSU wins, I propose we throw the game (rest LA KORY at least) therefore ensuring that NDSU gets the #2 and ORU gets #3 and IPFW gets #4 and we AVOID IPFW & let SDSU deal with them & watch Forbes eat up Cody larson!

I do not want to play IPFW again sorry.

Interesting scenario, although I believe we play on thursday and SDSU/USD play on saturday so we'd have no way of knowing.

Take your meds. Who thinks about this shit?

[HandoEX]

"Hey guys, I'm scared to play IPFW in the tournament so go ahead and intentionally lose this game and throw away the regular season title."

Great way to build confidence for the tournament. Jesus, you can be stupid :facepalm:

[NDSUstudent]

Lakes you do realize that SDSU plays on Saturday and we play on Thursday. Can you predict the future now?

Also you play to win, always. Don't mess with the team's mojo. It seems to not matter who we play, basically every game is a grind anyway. That is just this team's MO.

[Elvis was a Bison]

Must have slept through Ethics 101? Never saw a Bison slither on his belly like a reptile!

[Vet70]

I can just imagine Coach in the pre-game meeting---"Okay guys were scared to play IFPW again so we are going to throw the game." :pan:

[KSBisonFan]

I'm pretty sure we intentionally lost the USD, first IPFW and SDSU games so we could avoid WIU in the tournament. How many games can we throw before the League or NCAA tell us to stop? I think 3 games per season is the maximum.....pretty sure I read that in a rulebook somewhere.

That's at the FCS level, you d2 small timey mouth breather. Another reason to go fbs... Can lose as many games as you want there.

[Herd80]

I say we all thank Mr Elf for allowing this thread to slither thru, thus being reminded of the ignorance out there. Thank you, I had nearly forgotten

[El_Chapo]

I screwed up haha

If sdsu already has it locked up, I'd rather let ORU win and get the #3 seed and NOT play IPFW and they will beat SDSU and we can the beat them on Tuesday after they are tires for 3 straight games.

[El_Chapo]

Ah shoot. I didn't know ndsu game was Thursday.

Well I still want ipfw to be the 3 if we are 1 and the 4 if we are 2

great thread as always, chap. Thinking outside the box to prolong the teams season, I like. I actually think it'll probably play out anyways(without the tanking) that ORU beats NDSU and SDSU beats USD.

[RowdyRabbit]

I remember a few years ago, TV suggested in jest that SDSU lost a game towards the end of the year to accomplish a similar goal as el chapo mentions here.

Glad to see the reaction here is the (mostly) the same in this case as it was then. Facepalms and wtf's.

[BadlandsBison]

I'd like to hear the opinion of the "Aw Shucks" crowd

SS-DD. Still a troll with knee pads.......

[El_Chapo]

Elvis. I can't post live to defend myself but I assure you this wasn't trolling I honestly thought we played sat 7pm so then we would've been in control

So as usual elvis. You are wrong

[NDSU1980]

Hey bozos are you really this dense?

Sdsu plays at 4pm. Ndsu At 7pm

If sdsu already has it locked up, I'd rather let ORU win and get the #3 seed and NOT play IPFW and they will beat SDSU and we can the beat them on Tuesday after they are tires for 3 straight games.
I think "the elf" needs to tighten up the standards a little bit here. I see you and your suck up buddy are teh only ones who are in favor of this hair brained idea.

[Bisonator98]

Dumbest thread ever and that's saying something!

[BlueBisonRock]

Nomination for next year's preposterous statement / thread. Should be a number one seed.

Chapo, did you master time travel and advise the 1919 Black Socks?

[Bisonwinagn]

Theory is null and void because of the Thursday game. Also the playoffs don't start until Saturday so that's way too much time off to rest anyone and not try their hardest to win.

[56BISON73]

Just think we found one for the 2015 most preposterous statements contest.

[Professor Chaos]

I wonder what Herm would have to say...

http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/Q1a63LX7_Vw/hqdefault.jpg

I think regardless it's likely to be NDSU/IPFW in the semis. If USD beats SDSU they'd likely end up tied with IPFW for 3rd place and could win the tie breaker depending on how the rest of the games this week shape up leaving SDSU and USD as the 2/3 and NDSU and IPFW as the 1/4. In any case, I'm all for trying to get the top seed in the regular season to guarantee an NIT bid if they can't pull it out in Sioux Falls. With as weak as the RPI is this year there's no way the Bison get selected to the NIT as an at large so it would be another year in the CBI/CIT.

Look who started it and look who chimed in to support it. Those two should be paying royalties to Dumb and Dumber because obviously fit.

[ndsubison1]

id rather face Oru and have Sdsu deal with Ipfw. Lets beat Oru cuz I have a feeling USD beats the Bunnies.

I stand corrected, I see Lap Dog number 2 chimed in as well at 7:55. I guess we have Dumb, Dumber, and Dumbest.

Here's what happens when you try to intentionally lose a game. Only a complete loser would even think about trying it.

[bisonfan08]

:facepalm: http://ftw.usatoday.com/2015/02/riverdale-smyrna-tanking-high-school

That's ridiculous, all so that they could make it one step closer? Obviously you're going to have to play the best team anyway what's the difference if it's in the semi-finals or championship, unbelievable and yes I agree both coaches should be fired. That's no way to be teaching the game to any level of student athletes.

[AKBison]

So we're supposed to throw a chance at hanging another Summit league champ banner in the new SHAC so that our players are better rested? The guys have played all year to get to this point, win and your at the minimum co-champs! This is insane.

Especially attacking posters who can't post back, regardless if you feel they deserve it or not. It's kind of sad. Just sayin'.

Sorry I was just poking fun at poking fun at mnlonghrn and chapo. Thought someone always said the offensive thing then mnlonghrn replys no you are for typing it. My bad. I should have used purple but didn't because I can't so I used a hide under chair. Going to have to change signature. I am going to throw a big party when I pass elchapo in reputation points but that's not because I don't like him it's because he never once sent me a green chiclet and I sent him plenty how rude.

possibly work out better for the long haul, but NDSU needs to do something about it themselves or the seeding wont matter
