[Christopher Moen]

Feeling very good about the Bison. For some reason the score that pops up in my head is a 24-9 Bison victory. Weird in that I think NDSU will score more than 24.

As far as JMU goes, I think "Code Green" happily accepts their challenge.

I think after watching their intro video on the board, it will pump up the Bison even more for a quick start. I'm saying 27-17 NDSU. The score looks close but the stats show a curb stomping. Put your teeth on the curb!

From the jmu sports blog

, playing in the extremely loud Fargodome presents an additional challenge. But it’s nothing JMU can’t overcome. By deciding to have its hype video played pregame, JMU almost seems to be ready to feed off the crowd. And let’s be honest, if Justin Thorpe handled the noise, we’re confident Bryan Schor can remain focused.

[thebootfitter]

From the jmu sports blog
...
And let’s be honest, if Justin Thorpe handled the noise, we’re confident Bryan Schor can remain focused.
But wait... Did Justin Thorpe really handle the noise well? I guess I don't recall if they had any delay penalties or anything, but their offense sure had a tough time scoring.

Schor may remain focused, but I'm guessing the noise will still pose at least some minor problems for their team overall.

Going to be watching in Seattle with a good buddy who went to JMU. He's not as big of a fan as I am a Bison fan, but should still be a fun environment.

I've posted this elsewhere, but I'm predicting something like this:
Bison - 27 to 38 points
JMU - 14 to 28 points

Pretty confident we fall on the right side of that score, but wouldn't be terribly surprised with a loss. Anything can happen.

I think it will be close at half. Maybe even JMU up 10-7 or similar. Then we wear them down in the second half and they have no answer.

I think JMU is better than the other teams that have claimed we can't keep with them in the playoffs. They might pack a good punch but can they handle it when we punch back (I think I stole some of that from someone)? JMU doesn't score more than 21 and we win by 10-14 pts in hard fought game.

Offensive line/defensive line are too much to handle, along with Fargodome noise.

NDSU: 31
Jim Madison: 13

[LongLostAlum]

It will be great to see how this game plays out. I'm pretty sure we will be able to control the game on offense, eat up a lot of clock, and score a bunch. But if JMU scores early and often against our defense, it could spell trouble. I think JMU is a better all-around team than Jacksonville State was last year, and they block well downfield; like the Bison do.

I think we start man-handling them in the second-half, and come out with a close win.

Bison 35, JMU 28.

I guess it boils down to the quality of CAA play. JMU in a mere 5 months claims they have caught (surpassed?) the Bison in physicality based on punching out their CAA opponents. Does CAA play MVC-tough football? If so, this game should be a challenge.

JMU folks and coach have provided a lot of semi-tough bulletin board material, as if the Bison were some JV team to be blown aside. Astounding amount of diss from a team that hasn't played championship-level ball in a decade.

I guess that is why the game is played....

I guess that is why the game is played....Hypothetically, Sagarin has NDSU as an 8-point favorite, which includes a home-field advantage of 3 points. I suspect the CAA is a rather poorly ranked conference, but JMU has really been lighting up the scoreboard, so that's probably what puts JMU as high as they are in the rankings. I don't think they are a team to be taken lightly, but we will soon see.

Starting to look more and more like a game where the D is going to have to score or get a turnover to give the O a short field..

[NDSUstudent]

We have receivers getting open downfield but this offense loves to live in it's safe space

We go down 14-0, we're in huge HUGE trouble. Takes us completely out of our game.

[jeffs]

JMU clearly the better team right now. :(

So was SDSU this time last week.

[CalBison97]

Our lines on both sides of ball are losing.

[bisonridge]

We're in trouble.

They might want to start with a stop. Offense has done nothing but the D is getting embarrassed

Well, it was a good run.

Frisco's budget is in the red in 3-2-1......

[Olton Hall]

Did someone replace the Bison players with Rutgers players?

Yeah....true...but, it will end...if you don't think so you're delusional.

[BisonAccountant44]

They have multiple offensive lineman asking for more noise wtf

[Bison03]

Seriously guys...this is far from over. Calm the F down.

[Bison4peat]

Cockiest low rent team that's ever been in the dome.

[Wally]

If you lose, at least go down playing your best. This is the furthest from it

[CalBison97]

Holding to a fg is a flicker of hope.

[CalBison97]

We could use a big Bruce run back about right now.

[GreenfieldBison]

Is this going to be a pattern for this Bison team?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Wally]

Well, it's on the offense to keep this from going to shit. Defense needs a break

[RonMexico]

Good job D...Now let's get the offense going here!!

[MontBison]

Maybe one day Robbie can step up and make a tackle. Just one day.

[LongLostAlum]

Our offense needs to get its act together. They've sucked so far.

[Bison4peat]

We could use everything right now.

At this point, I hope it follows the pattern.

Maybe we're boycotting

Ok, then. :)

Not so improbable now huh?

[WYOBISONMAN]

Horrid performance by the offense.....And.....I am not sure the D can stop them.

That would still be an improvement over Rutgers.

PI all day

Horrible no call.

That was PI. No doubt. Refs cost us that drive.

Not much going right for the home team. Defense needs to make a stop here.

[AKBison]

This next defensive series may determine the outcome of the game.

[Wally]

JFC. Well, defense needs to step up big time

[CalBison97]

Steidl done. Knee

[Olton Hall]

I hope they haven't got into Cam'a head now.

[bisonpride4ever]

Let's get a turnover

Both teams have deserved a PI in the endzone now. We'll call it even.

Difference is one player looked for the ball, the other didn't.

They are beating us up in our own house and going to take all our candy too!

Basically doing whatever they want.

Taunting,jesus what a circus

[silkamilkamonico]

I've never even heard of this team

[THEsocalledfan]

Blatant hold on td

[DCinOK]

Good gosh...what in the world are we doing...

[bisonridge]

Blatant hold on td

but the refs give us every game! (no purple needed)

[jeffs]

It is now OK to panic.

[Wally]

This is an absolute ass kicking. Bad calls or not. This is hideous

[Bison4peat]

ESPN announcer laughing at taunting. Nice.

[AKBison]

On the ropes now boys. Hopefully that taunting penalty fires us up.

[BFKasper14]

There's a difference between two players going for the ball and not turning around, faceguarding, and not allowing the receiver to get to the ball.

It's over, I am off to the bar.....

[JMU DLS]

Looking back at the ball doesn't mean you can lay all over the receiver though. Doesn't look like it matters at this point.

[NorthernBison]

Clearly one team wants it more. Time to change that.

[AKBison]

Wow, their sideline thinks it's over and they have won

[bisonmike2]

If we score on this drive and then score coming out of halftime we have a chance. if not this game is over.

[silkamilkamonico]

This team looks like they may be able to hang with Eastern Washington

[bisonmike2]

I'm thinking that too but I still think EWU has that extra gear especially if they get on a fast track.

[bisonridge]

When your looking for the ball and going after it, it does not matter who is over who, both players have a fair shot at the ball.

[LITTLEGUYSINGREEN]

PGT is running slower than a Lineman. He is the reason we are getting torched on D. He needs to get pulled ASAP.

[Wally]

A TE caught a ball. Yeah


And another

[Bison4peat]

This team looks like they may be able to hang with Eastern Washington

Without question.

Without question.

The way they our kicking our ass they look like they would beat any one of our Championship teams.

Eeeh I wouldn't go that far, I also would say it is only the 2nd quarter, lets give it a full game before we make that claim

[RonMexico]

Dammit....wide open!!

[bisonmike2]

C'mon now, let's not get crazy. This years team has been decimated by injuries (not making an excuse) and we lost several guys who are on NFL rosters (also not an excuse). 2013 would not be struggling against these guys. Even last years team would be taking it too them.

[LITTLEGUYSINGREEN]

PGT is out of position every play. Obviously he is not even close to recovered from his knee injury. He needs to see the bench now. That is why we are getting torched on D.

[silkamilkamonico]

We're about to see just how good our coaching staff at in game adjustments.

[Bison4peat]

2013 would give them trouble.

Good take. We'll see if the coaches monitor Bisonville during the game.

[bisonridge]

Needed that TD badly

[Wally]

Need a stop like yesterday right now.

[HerdistheWord]

Needed that TD badly

Can Morlock play both ways? He can do no wrong today.

[RonMexico]

Now we need to D to get a stop...don't let them get that score back...
