Stick
No fumbles or forced throw ints
But whilst we are talking about his lineup
How about jabril

[El_Chapo]

Jabril played for LSU but i'll replace the Grim Reaper with Jabril at SS I guess.

Wentz > Stick See Illinois State title & Iowa State games

Wentz = 2 losses (actually 1 @UNI, the defense lost that Montana game by 1), 0 playoff losses
Stick = 3 losses , 1 playoff loss

no one is stopping you guys from posting your squad!

1 loss? What are you speaking about
He had 3 in 1.3 years as a starter

[ByeSonBusiness]

Why is Jabril at safety lol.

[NDSU1980]

I'll take Stick over Wentz any day. And Stick would look great in the pros if he only got the chance to get on the field.

[El_Chapo]

1 loss? What are you speaking about

Wentz lost at UNI (our TE got mauled at goaline on UNI long return interception else that game is different)
Montana game the defense lost by 1 in last second
usd game carson got hurt while NDSU was up 21-14, defense again lost it.

Wentz = 0 playoff losses & zero sdsu losses
Stick = 1 playoff loss & sdsu loss

[ByeSonBusiness]

I'll take Stick over Wentz any day. And Stick would look great in the pros if he only got the chance to get on the field.

Idk....there aren't many guys who look great at that position in the NFL....

At DT I can’t believe you all are forgetting one of the best ever, Ryan Drevlow. He played right next to Perry but which one was a two time all American? Hint: it wasn’t Perry.

I went with Schaetz over Drevlow on a coinflip but you might be right.

[Herd]

Is this the all decade team based on NDSU, which would be . . . 1) Stick 2) Jensen 3) Wentz

(Or)

The all-NDSU nfl team? 1) Wentz

If it’s based on playing at ndsu, get it right.

[BiZon22]

Kind of blows my mind anyone would pick someone besides Wentz for their all NDSU decade team

[unbison]

Why? Has to have the lowest win percentage the three that played in the decade
Was only the starter for a year and a half

[TransAmBison]

Kind of blows my mind anyone would pick someone besides Wentz for their all NDSU decade teamWentz would be third string for me. Really tough to pick between Jensen and Stick (thinking senior year for all)...and I would have to give the nod to Stick. Stick and Jensen brought the best out of the team. Wentz did not have that effect. As PL has stated, doesn't matter what Wentz did/does in the NFL...matters what he did in college.

Exactly. If I were to make an all decade Bison lineup or an all decade lineup to face Bama in one game my lineups would be shuffled considerably and there would be position shuffling.

Mine almost mirrors this 100%. I'd change a couple of spots based on them just being some of my favorite Bison ever or simply being a ND kid.

Stick instead of Wentz, Grothmann at FB, Olson in the middle, and Smith instead of Watson.

This can't be your first decade bro. You've probably seen more of them then any of us.

I was just struggling with it being 4 years from the 2018 winter Olympics bro. No worries.

[ndsubison1]

We going based off accolades or who gives us the best team? Interesting debate between the QBs

[Bisonator98]

You can put all the QB's in a hat and draw one and justify it. Same with a half dozen RB's and even more linemen. The talent level of the last decade has simply been incredible!

[Kevin]

Easton Stick is the greatest bison of all time put that in your pipe and smoke it.

[TransAmBison]

Easton Stick is the greatest bison of all time put that in your pipe and smoke it.Hard to argue that. And the best part him (repeating myself) is bringing out the best in his teammates. They gave everything they had for him every game. I saw that out of the team under Wentz once or twice (granted...not thinking very hard). Jensen was much the same as Stick...but Stick's stronger arm and greater elusiveness wins out by a hair. And Stick had a 'stache.

[17>1]

Ryan Smith over Watson.... bloody Mary's hitting hard this morning

ND kid, loved his work ethic and soft spoken manner, let his play do all of the talking. Also, feel like these 2 guys played in different decades too so I went with Smith.

Absolutely nothing against CW, so fun to watch play for the Bison!

[gavin2126]

We going based off accolades or who gives us the best team? Interesting debate between the QBs

Yeah the answer to the first question decides who the QB is for sure. To give us the best team it goes Wentz, Lance, Stick, Jensen IMO. Based off accolades it goes Stick, Jensen, Wentz, Lance.

We are in pretty much complete agreement with your overall assessment. Jensen/Stick is a toss up for me as well...but if I have to pick I'd give the nod to Stick. So we have a slight difference, but I completely agree with the rest.

Watch the replay and listen to the announcers of the Hail Mary 1975 Vikings Cowboys.
They say Nate Wright fall's down, Drew Pearson backs into the end zone then Cowboy Offensive lineman number 66 is talking yelling at to the Viking players in the end zone. Then there's a shot of Tom Landry's back to the camera. Hail Mary?

In my freshman year playing football at Valley Junior High School I was the QB. A player from the other team ran about 40 yards full speed and hit me right in the back. Laying on the ground wind knocked out I should have been paralyzed.

Now they want to tear down Valley Junior High.

[Herd]

Gimme Crockett or Ojuri. Both were exceptional reliable cats.

Bruce never really had a situation like Crockett and Ojuri where he was the only main guy. Bruce was great, but he was always working with some really high level guys in Lance, King, Chase. Bruce/Lance/King/Chase in 2016 was THE top notch group in the DI era, but it didn't let any of them really stand out as much as they otherwise would have.

[Son of a Bison]

I wonder how knowledgeable fans from other schools would rank NDSU players on a list like this. SDSU and NDSU have had multiple matchups and know each other very well. I know there are some good players from other teams that are now graduated that I am glad we are not facing anymore (Rozeboom from SDSU comes to mind for various reasons)

[Tony Almeida]

Flip a coin between Crocket, Ojuri and Anderson.


Gimme Crockett or Ojuri. Both were exceptional reliable cats.I thought Crocket was too easy to tackle, it seemed like he was tripped up by the shoe laces in many occasions and he ran reckless at times trying to do too much. And Ojuri? Don't know if I put him in my top 5...


Lance Dunn would be my #1Dunn is definitely top 3 for me.

I too, might not have Ojuri in the top 5, but his 66 yard rip vs Kansas State when the Bison were pinned at their own 2 late in the 3rd down 7........ definitely one of the biggest plays of the night.

Ojuri should have scored a TD during that play, he was alteast 10 yards ahead of the K-State secondary but somehow he ran out of gas and got tackled near the 60-70 yard line. His TD against Georgia Southern during the opening drive was a thing of beauty. It looked like a missile coming at you.

Dunn, Anderson, and Brooks was one of my favorite RB rotations.Agree. Brooks was one of my favorites. Wish they would use Bussey the same way.
But I still think people have short memories. Ojuri and crocket were something special, they just did things that other backs couldn't do.
