[gumby013]

Put your pre-game thoughts here.

I don't think Dave Steckel wants to be there anymore.

I'm not sure they understand that Springfield, MO is basically the worst part of West Fargo with 400,000 people in it.

[gumby013]

Line opens at -38.

O/U of 56.5

[MNLonghorn10]

might, no, likely will be another 4pm departure. any good 230 national games?

[roadwarrior]

might, no, likely will be another 4pm departure. any good 230 national games?

Game starts at 1pm this week....

UGA and Tennessee could be okay.
Wake Forest vs. F$U.
Iowa vs. Michigan St starts at 3.

You're welcome!

Is that just for the Bison score?

Looks like a 48-9 prediction.

I wonder if they realize that NW Missouri State also might be out-recruiting them.

They have Bass Pro Shop. And a imos pizza.

Considering I think Memphis BBQ is overrated, probably not.

[MNLonghorn10]

Game starts at 1pm this week....Excellent. Forgot about that

[bruinbison]

Excellent. Forgot about that

South Dakota at Western Illinois - 3:00 - ESPN3
SDSU at Youngstown State - 6:00 - ESPN3
Perfect! (for MVFC fans that is)

That is perfect, now that I'm not wasting any more time on Sundays watching the NFL, I don't have to feel bad watching college football all day Saturday.

What's funnier, the misery state whining in general, or them thinking UN_ has actually turned their program around and is a legit top 10 team?

Well they have a point when they talk about UN_'s rise to mediocirty vs their program being a perpetual dumpster fire.

[HerdBoy]

They got beat by UND? How is that even possible? This game is going to get very ugly. Van Dellen with 2 TD passes.

[tjbison]

4pm...more like 230

Both should be good games

They say all the right things.

[StL Bison Fan]

It was very complimentary to say that there is no one Bison who is key - that they work as a unit.
Some teams should try that.
Did I hear correctly? Are they running the option?

[NDSU92]

Any idea when ESPN College Extra usually announces their weekend slate for games? Gonna be in Nashville and hoping to catch it at a bar.

What's the record for negative yards in a game? TFL?

Missouri State Game Notes

http://missouristatebears.com/documents/2017/9/25/Game_5_North_Dakota_State.pdf

[gumby013]

Missouri State, which outgained Illinois State by a combined 311-to-247 margin
in total offense in the first, second and fourth quarters, looks to rebound from
its 34-9 setback to the Redbirds in their fifth trip to Fargo

This part of the game notes got me. Illinois State dropped 28 points on them in the third quarter.

The Bison are having more fun playing this year. Granted...there are tougher games coming...but it's just an observation.

[Hammerhead]

Maybe the pressure of not being the team to end the streak was a burden on last year's team?

[wagsabison]

I have to think that definitely hung over their heads a little. Especially getting off to a great start in non-conference last year the expectations were as high as ever and I don't think we were as good as a whole last year either. That showed in the end.

[G_Funky]

totally agree...and its a hell of a fun time to watch too.

definitely helps when you're completely manhandling teams.

even EWU, tho the score didn't reflect until a little late, was a shellacking.

i also think there is a new crop of leaders on this team that are younger and little more exuberant.

The schedule of games is out; NDSU will be one of them (the time is often wrong, but they will get it figured out).

http://www.espn.com/espncollegeextra/#schedule

DIRECTV usually doesn't update their guide until late Wednesday or so, so not sure what channel. 788 - 793...

[HerdBull]

Say, I know this is a little off-topic, but can someone tell me what all of the position group nicknames are for the Bison? For example, I know the quarterbacks are referred to as the bomb squad and the OL are the rams. What about the others? Thanks in advance.

D Line is Alley Cats? I think anyway.

Really hoping this game is somewhat close.

Why, for your viewing pleasure? If it's close we played like total horse shit. I hope it's 60-0.

Yes. For my viewing pleasure. I dunno about you but blow outs are not fun.

Its going to be a blow out, but I just hope that all of our MVFC games are good games and somewhat close. Not over after the first quarter. Why wouldn't you want our strength of schedule to be better? (granted, thats contingent on the other teams we play doing well in ALL their games)

[gumby013]

I must be off my game today. Almost missed...

FLIGHT STALKING TIME!

Dang. That charter they are using is fancy.

[Mr Meaty]

Their flight is running late. Must not want to come up for the game. Their coach can fly up this time. Last time we played them did he not have to drive up due some medical issue he was having?

Last year's tackling machine for Missouri State, LB Dylan Cole, made the active roster for the Houston Texans as an undrafted free agent.

^this

I want domination, and for our 2nd and 3rd stringers to get more reps. 60-0 means we did all the little things better than the other team. It means we prepared better than the other team. It means we executed better than them. It means we played as a team instead of a bunch of individuals. It means they did all of these things because there is a bar, and the bar is Bison pride, and they don't want that bar to dip on their watch.

This is why I love being a Bison fan.
