Nah, not for them. They are just hapless victims. If JMU gets there the following week though? Make it embarrassing.

I'm from MT and worked for MSU but I'm a Bison Fan. I want the Bison to kick their donkey all day long. I wish the game would have 5 quarters so the herd could kick their asses longer. Go Bison!!!!

What are the odds Msu scores a td?

Nearly a 100% probability they will. Why wouldn’t they? Only one team this year has failed to score a TD.

[thebigund]

Lack of balance on offense will kill the Cats in this one. It’s gonna get ugly.

[DIBISON]

Nearly a 100% probability they will. Why wouldn’t they? Only one team this year has failed to score a TD.

If they do get one I don't think they will get another. The Bison D should bury their offense and there is no way this team will score without some kind of help.

When MSU did this buyout years ago why did they do it? Beside not wanting to get their asses kicked and being humiliated? I believe thsy did a buyout twice, any other reason for their actions?

This was time period that both Montana schools were buying out games. Not to mention that I think Taylor allowed them to reschedule by a year also to start with. They bought us out and took an FBS money game and added a dII home game if I remember correctly. Problem was they waited until the February before the season started without any indication to Taylor that they were looking to do this.

NDSU is so next level, they do that without even needing to play them.

Let's face it - NDSU is a Top 20 FBS team. Maybe even a Top 15. They're that solid & consistent.

However, they will not overmatch us at every position, whether they believe that or not. They do not have a Troy Anderson at QB. They do not have an athlete like Jonsen on their entire roster. They do not have a true frosh RB like we have.

They also have not dismantled a legacy FCS program who is their bitter rival like the Bobcats have done to the dark pink fags. In fact, last time NDSU played the jizz I don't think things went too well for them.

From the Bobcat board, 2010 I went to Bozeman, took a lot of shit from their fans until DJ Mcnorton showed them how we run, can't wait for Saturday. I have a family tie with MSU so I'm happy to get to continue rubbing in they can't beat us

[tony]

When MSU did this buyout years ago why did they do it? Beside not wanting to get their asses kicked and being humiliated? I believe thsy did a buyout twice, any other reason for their actions?

I can't really answer this authoritatively as I let somebody borrow Vol. 8 of my collectors' edition of The Bisonville Book of Grievances and they haven't returned it.

MSU didn't buy out twice, they rescheduled the return game once and then bought out a game. Really, it wouldn't be such a sore spot except they didn't tell NDSU about it until February, and that, mon frere, is UND-level douchebaggery.

Anyway, their QB plays like Chris Streveler. 10.6 100 meters is freaking fast too.

[PlrbrBison]

That Troy Anderson looks tough as nails. Lots of carries and tough carries. Just keeps bouncing back up and doing it again. I really hope he doesn't get hurt against us, but its gonna be tough on him to get used that hard against our D.

And there offense in 2010 was a million times better and they still didn’t do much against us.

I wouldnt trade their true freshman for any of our 4 studs, and Ive watched zero film on their rb.

You guys will be absolutely shocked at how slow the cat team is.

Aside from Anderson and Konkol they have ZERO talent. They don't have one player that would start on your team and I am including Anderson in that comment even thought he's a pretty good player.

They are a below average team that shouldn't have made the playoffs and they had trouble with another team that shouldn't have made the playoffs.

If they score it will be a fluke they have less than a one dimensional offense you guys will shut down hard and once you get out to a 6 or 7 score lead they will quit

Jonsen was actually a highly recruited QB that transferred from Oregon because he couldn’t beat out a walk on at Oregon and subsequently couldn’t beat out a LB at Montana State. It’s important to have good WR’s as we all know but does it matter if the QB is able to pass them the ball?

So tell me about this year's Bison team, I haven't seen you guys play yet. I know about Stick from last year. Who else are the standouts? Is there even a single weakness on the team?

MSU admittedly is probably not yet ready to compete with teams like the Bison. At this point, we're kinda in "happy to be here" mode IMO. We do have a tough physical team but definitely lack talent in a few areas.

On offense we have a solid line, a smallish but very physical RB, decent WRs, but we have been very one dimensional. Our QB is a tough talented athlete with great top end speed. He does throw a decent deep ball, but other than that he struggles throwing the football. The offense is very run heavy, lots of QB power, inside zone, triple option. Guys to watch:
#15 QB
#22 RB
#10 WR deep threat
#85 WR possession guy

Defensively, we have a good line and secondary (although our 2 best CBs were out with injuries yesterday). The weak spot has been LB, due to a couple session-ending injuries and the fact that our best LB is playing QB. Guys to watch:
#37 Buck End, leads team and I think conference in sacks
#92 NT
#18 Safety. Great open field tackler and hitter
#2 CB if he plays, was out yesterday

This is a pretty good rundown of our squad. We definitely are not guilty of having “zero talent” as was stated earlier in this thread.

Our defensive line is very stout and is anchored by Tucker Yates who is a beast. He didn’t play much in the 2nd half of our first playoff game due to I think a high ankle sprain. Hopefully he’ll be healed up for what will probably be his last game as a Bobcat. This defensive line is the reason we beat the griz. If you guys haven’t seen it, watch the griz last offensive play when we forced a fumble. It is a thing of beauty when it comes to d line play.

Our LBs have had a tough year due to injuries but have really stepped up the last few weeks. Grant Collins is great against the run.

Secondary is a question mark for us. If we are at full strength we have a pretty solid group back there as well.

Offensively, we have been steadily improving under our new acting OC Matt Miller. Troy Andersen is a great football player at multiple positions and has really carried us offensively. Our RB is a true freshman that never stops fighting for extra yards.

My take on our team is simple. These guys don’t give up. No matter what the situation our coach has this team fighting start to finish. I’m very impressed with how these guys can take punches and keep getting up. I am quite certain that you won’t see any quit in us on Saturday. I’m excited to see how these guys fair against the best FCS program in the country.

[MNLonghorn10]

You're right, sorry.

So tell me about this year's Bison team, I haven't seen you guys play yet. I know about Stick from last year. Who else are the standouts? Is there even a single weakness on the team?

MSU admittedly is probably not yet ready to compete with teams like the Bison. At this point, we're kinda in "happy to be here" mode IMO. We do have a tough physical team but definitely lack talent in a few areas.

On offense we have a solid line, a smallish but very physical RB, decent WRs, but we have been very one dimensional. Our QB is a tough talented athlete with great top end speed. He does throw a decent deep ball, but other than that he struggles throwing the football. The offense is very run heavy, lots of QB power, inside zone, triple option. Guys to watch:
#15 QB
#22 RB
#10 WR deep threat
#85 WR possession guy

Defensively, we have a good line and secondary (although our 2 best CBs were out with injuries yesterday). The weak spot has been LB, due to a couple session-ending injuries and the fact that our best LB is playing QB. Guys to watch:
#37 Buck End, leads team and I think conference in sacks
#92 NT
#18 Safety. Great open field tackler and hitter
#2 CB if he plays, was out yesterday

im not sold on the secondary being as good as previous years...but it doesnt matter because the DL is as ferocious as its ever been in the entire NDSU run. stud LB Jabril Cox is the best defensive player in the FCS, and will be a buchanan watch list candidate for the next few years if he stays. Hes a missile.

IMO OL isn't as good as previous years. still solid and probably the best in FCS across the line. Eastons easton. the 2 big horses at RB(Dunn and Anderson) are incredible, they would probably start on most if not all FCS teams-Its tough to say if a "stud" rb from a different school who puts up great numbers against terrible competition is better. I tend to believe what I see. Ty brooks the third rb, is a speedster home run threat with any touch. I know it sounds like bragging and a little much.

total TDs for the basic scorers are
Lance Dunn RB-11(8 rush 3 rec)
Bruce Anderson RB-7(5 rush, 2 rec-missed a majority of games with hamstring)
Easton QB-11 rushing tds
Darrius Shepherd-WR 6 rec

the punter is actually good this year unlike last...kickers about the same, pretty reliable 35 and in, a coin flip anything over 40.

this NDSU historically right now is up there in the mid teens in terms of best teams in the land.

You are going to see real team speed in the Dome and wonder why you look even slower and trust me your team is slow as hell with the 2 exceptions noted above. Konkel and

Anderson wouldn't start on the Bison at any position.........this isn't smack its the real truth and you will admit it on Saturday unless you like lying to yourself

Zero talent? Enough talent to make it 3 in a row against the dark pink dbags from Missoula. Oh wait, I forgot Alpha got run out of town and doesn’t like the griz anymore.

Rundown of the Bison.
Offense:
QB- Great. Chance to break the all time win record for FCS QB. Big threat at running the ball, fantastic TD to Int percentage, has a very good arm, can pass on the run and from the pocket. Drawback is that he does seem to get sacked at the very most critical times.
RB- Great. We have 3 outstanding RBs Bruce Anderson is probably the best and can do it all. Ty Brooks just may very well be our second best and then Lance Dunn. Anderson and Dunn are seniors.
Recievers- Average at best. One standout receiver and the rest are sub par as far as stats go. TE's can at times take over a game and then they are unstoppable, when and IF we use them.
OL- Very good. They are big and able to move. Wearing down defenses late in the 3rd-4th so the run game takes over. Subject to the once in a while bad sack. But still very good on pass protection.
Defense.
Don't even know where to start. Defense all around is just about always top notch. D line, Linebackers, Safeties, are all experienced, big, and fast. For some reason and without any hard facts in front of me I say the CBs are our weakest position on defense, and even then, they are probably still better than what most teams have (someone correct me if I am wrong).
Special Teams Very good. Special teams defense is outstanding. Punter is good (not much need for him for the most part to prove himself but he does well. Field goal kicking........we seem to hover somewhere around average in that department.

It should be a good one. Our lines are tough and play with a lot of pride. I never will believe that my team has no chance but there is no denying you guys are the standard right now. I think it would take a lot for us to pull it out but I fully expect us to fight you guys from the first whistle to the last.

This will be a great test for us and I’m certain we will be seeing each other again. Our coaching staff is great and we’ll be playing plenty of playoff football in the future.

Hey buddy how ya doing?

[84CatGrad]

Hello Bison fans. Another Bobcat fan here joining in and hoping to find some good back-and-forth to while away the days before the game.

My take? Probably nothing new. I think a Bobcat win would be a miracle of the tallest order. NDSU is superior across the board and stuffs the run consistently - not a good sign for a team whose bread-and-butter is trying to wear down a defense, establish the run and pile up the time of possession. I think a repeat of our game against South Dakota State (45-14 loss, 39 yards rushing) is a likely result. Sure, Troy Anderson was out that game and a lot has changed since then including our OC, but I think your D is that good. Our D is also pretty good but not good enough to keep us in the game if we can't get first downs.

Naturally I am hopeful for a better outcome (hope springs eternal among football fans) and as others have stated on this forum I love our heart and never-say-die attitude. But we are still very young and tend to start slow and we can't afford to do that on Saturday. In addition, your team has developed the ultimate trait of a champion, you don't ever take anyone lightly.

I'll watch and root my head off for the 'Cats on Saturday and hope for a miracle. What else can I do? Good luck to your team, and thanks is advance for treating any Bobcat fans that show up in the Fargodome with respect.

I don't know if it's the same crew or not (maybe IndyBison can chime in if he knows how it generally works) but even if it's not I think conference crews are generally more alike to their conference officiating brethren than they are to other conference crews. I thought it was worth pointing out that the JMU/UD game was an OVC crew since there were a lot if complaints about that crew.

What makes you think the same crew will work Saturday's game? It may be an OVC crew, but the same individuals??? Or is this the norm ?

Not likely the same crew. Each conference submits 2 crews for assignment and the NCAA takes it from there. First 2 rounds are usually 16 different crews with 7 of them selected for quarters, semi, finals based on observations the first two weeks. MVFC will likely get final if there is ever a final without a MVFC team but not likely this year.

LOL, why should I show YOU any humility? I have nothing against you, MSU, or the state of Mont. Just stating a simple fact. Your team is going to get curb stomped, and it won't be pretty. I'm not talking smack, shit or anything else. I'm not trying to be a smart ass either. Just lying the truth out there for you. I'm not kidding, you will see on Saturday.

Back to the humility thing, NDSU is the KING OF THE FCS! PERIOD! So, as fans we don't need to show anyone any humility and if you haven't noticed, most of us on here don't. Why should we?

If it makes you feel better, I actually don’t think this game will be as ugly as most here and I’m guessing you guys are comparable to some of our conference teams. The fact that you aren’t a dangerous passing offense makes it far easier as I think our secondary is exploitable by a good QB. I’m glad it playoffs and we get to see some new teams. Two years without the P5 game has sucked some fun out of our regular seasons. It’s a bummer that this 2018 team doesn’t have that benchmark comparison

Not likely the same crew. Each conference submits 2 crews for assignment and the NCAA takes it from there. First 2 rounds are usually 16 different crews with 7 of them selected for quarters, semi, finals based on observations the first two weeks. MVFC will likely get final if there is ever a final without a MVFC team but not likely this year.

Thanks for the clarification, Indy. So, what were the complaints with the OVC crew? Too many ticky, tack flags or not enough?

Anybody find Montana State video? It's hard to find - heck, Fox mistakenly put Mississippi State v Ole Miss video up with their write up. The SDSU stuff is useless because Andersen* wasn't their QB. Andersen's first game this season was against Portland State (he had 211 yards rushing, btw).

Should be an interesting game - they were having a lot of success running the option against UIW - they also were running the delta formation in the backfield too, weren't they? Andersen threw some nice balls against UIW so if they've got a guy who can get behind our secondary like Illinois State did, that could be trouble. It's really tough to judge team speed, but they looked very quick. They kind of remind me of the 2011 or 2010 Bison team. I just can't watch UIW again because that team is the opposite of NDSU.

[Bisonator98]

I've only seen 2 of Montana States games this season. They look like the 2010 NDSU team to me. Gritty hard nosed team, runs the ball well, doesn't really throw it that great but plays sound defense and special teams. Their kicker seem to have an off day against UIW but he was great in that first game against WIU that I watched. Probably a year or 2 away from making a long run in the PO's. Don't think they are balanced enough to move the ball on us. Might have some big plays here or there but I don't see them putting up more then 10-14 points. I don't think their defense will stop our offense. I'm expecting a 38-10 type game.

I finished watching the Incarnate Word-Montana State game last night and I’m impressed with how much the Bobcats have improved since the SDSU game. Their constant offensive set changing and Andersen’s skills is going be “fun” for the Bison Defensive staff’s game plan preparation.

This is a good opponent for the Bison to begin their playoff stretch as it will cause them to stay focused right away. I believe NDSU will win comfortably, but maybe not cover the spread. Both teams run the ball too much and the game time will be flying.

I recall losing to a very average USD team just a couple years ago. A couple big plays early and any game from here on out can get dicey in a hurry. With that, yeah, I expect a 38-13 victory but Im betting on a close game thru 2 quarters from here on out and any team that can hang until half time does have a chance.

If you want to talk football go ahead and give us your take on the upcoming game. We are more than willing to talk football. We get bored with ourselves and get on tangent subjects and shocking thread drift starts.

I will give you my take on the upcoming game. Kitties stay close until late 1st half. Bison score just before half and it will be 17-7. Bison ball to start and the third and a methodical drive of 75 yards and 6 1/2 minutes later it will be 24-7. Kitties on first possession of the 2nd half will result in a scope and score and the route will be one. 31-7. Kitties will be licking themselves all the way back to Boozeman MT. Yes I know I spelled it that way for a reason. You have to drink to live there. Feel free to tell me where I am wrong and how it sucks to live in ND.

[Bison 4 Life]

Here's the deal. Don't come over to our board telling us what we should and shouldn't talk about or how we should treat you or whatever.

On the Cat board, the consensus is essentially that they will go toe-to-toe and come out with a moral victory. Must be a Big Sky thing.

[ALPHAGRIZ1]

Here's the deal. Don't come over to our board telling us what we should and shouldn't talk about or how we should treat you or whatever. Ignore the people whom you feel are mistreating you and engage with the ones you like. Your passive aggressive moping about "how we are" doesn't affect us one bit. We're mostly German/Norwegian Lutherans, some from Canada, we INVENTED passive aggressiveness.

AG1 gets it. He gives zero fucks about the haters and takes as much as he gives.CC is a good guy but he don't like me much and that's cool.

He would fucking love the tailgating in Fargo and he probably would love downtown I know I do.

You don't find tailgates anywhere in the country like yours not the SEC, Not Big10, about the only other place like your tailgates is when you do them in Frisco

Our conference is pure shit, weak, slow too many crap teams and Montana can't even compete in it.

Unfortunately, the MVFC is going to inherit one of your crap teams.

Anybody find Montana State video? It's hard to find - heck, Fox mistakenly put Mississippi State v Ole Miss video up with their write up. The SDSU stuff is useless because Andersen* wasn't their QB. Andersen's first game this season was against Portland State (he had 211 yards rushing, btw).

Should be an interesting game - they were having a lot of success running the option against UIW - they also were running the delta formation in the backfield too, weren't they? Andersen threw some nice balls against UIW so if they've got a guy who can get behind our secondary like Illinois State did, that could be trouble. It's really tough to judge team speed, but they looked very quick. They kind of remind me of the 2011 or 2010 Bison team. I just can't watch UIW again because that team is the opposite of NDSU.


* it's not Anderson - like Brock Jensen, the second "e" is for Excellence.


Had to watch on the phone, but was impressed with the Bobcats passing. Won’t be surprised to see them take their shots downfield early, trying to make the Bison D adjust. Andersen threw a good deep ball when he had a clean pocket, or a clean roll-out. Seemed like spirals, but on the phone screen could have been misleading. Bobcats incorporated jet sweeps as well as the option plays, and often split QB Andersen out on the edge with a WR as the QB. Could see a lateral to Andersen in that situation with a downfield shot following. Don’t know if that WR can throw the ball, but if he can chuck it 40 +, Andersen was a state sprint champ, maybe the Cats will take a downfield shot that way.


With the pressure the Bison DLine generates, along with Jabril Cox & Co spying on Andersen, could be a tough day for him. Seems like it takes him a little more time to load and release, so hello Kitty......
But won’t be surprised to see the Cats with a big play or two, helping keep the game closer than most expect.

As to Tony’s Brock Jensen mention, I used a freshman Brock Jensen comp, only faster, this weekend when I was asked about Andersen and the Bobcats at a wedding anniversary party.

Sounds just like the CAA. :rofl:

Anyone want to talk football? Being we have a playoff game coming up? Or is this fun?

I heard a great interview today from the Montana State coach. Very impressive. Slowly building up the program, very humble and said NDSU was the standard. Talked about how we coach kids up, loaded with talent and have great coaches. Said we play the game the right way. I am excited to see this QB they are bringing in. 6'3 225 and was a multi time sprint champ in Montana. Love it. Lets play! #letstalkfootballandleavetheBSbehind

That is a pretty entertaining read. They are getting trolled hard by someone with the handle BizonProud, not a username here and no real football content related to NDSU in his posts, so I'm assuming he's a Griz fan. It's pretty funny they haven't figured that out yet.

TIL First Interstate Bank is still a thing.


Sorry that wasn't about football

[El_Chapo]

why hasn't this angle been brought up yet??

Messingham at Montana State has to help NDSU correct? He was there in 2016, he should know players, tendencies, etc.



Courtney... Order LOTS of sprinkles at Cold Stone this saturday buddy... >>> http://www.bisonville.com/forum/showthread.php?38463-Messingham-Orders-Vanilla-at-Coldstone!!


Trey Lance is red shirting 100000%. Talked to his family, so he will be active ONLY in semis and Frisco

The tailgate at Missoula and just the overall town itself was a great college football atmosphere when we visited in 2015. Lots of really fun people who were excited about the game, probably helps that you guys won, but everyone treated us great so it was fun even though we lost. If you like FCS football, NDSU and Missoula should be 1 and 1A on your bucket list.

Curious to see Cox v. Andersen. NDSU has always been a 2nd half team....and that has been a strength for MSU this year as well, so will be interested to see halftime adjustments. Choate seems to have the Cats moving in the right direction...and Saturday will be a great measuring stick to see how far they have come.

Hell yes, those 2 will battle all day. Should be a fun watch

[tjbison]

Choate had a good interview, looking forward to Saturday.

If I'm understanding MSU hff asan offense but struggle on D? I have not watched any of their games this year

Honestly, I think both sides of the ball are ranked as middle of the road. However, both sides of the ball have been able to make timely plays when they had to. Biggest difference between last season and this season is that last year they were a play or two away from winning 2 or 3 more games....and this year they made those plays.
