Oklahoma - Oregon game still being televised over KMCY at Minot.

On a side note, is anyone getting GoBison to work?

3-0 Northeastern at the end of Q1.

But the Bison have the ball and appear to be moving it.

Seems like they have opening day jitters, as the TV announcers say.

Bison are inside the 30.

I have access on BisonZone - just signed up today. They preempted the game due to the Oklahoma-Oregon late finish.

It is 3-0 Northeastern leads, just starting 2nd quarter.

CSP two weeks ago just wasn't enough to get the Bison ready for D1-AA football.

Bohl was right. The bye week in week two is not ideal!

I wish they showed the commercials... they make me homesick (in a good way).Maybe they could throw in the latest price of barrows and gilts or hard amber durum during halftime?

gwendel
09-17-2006, 12:56 AM
Well, Tony, this is the Trees Bowl, so the North Dakota Forest Service will have some kind of presentation at halftime.

They are giving away saplings at the end of the game. Maybe if you contact the Forest Service they will send you a left-over NORTH DAKOTA sapling.

tony
09-17-2006, 01:31 AM
Impressions so far? For me:

1. NU defense knows how to hit (Schaffner didn't sneak into the game, did he?)
2. NDSU's offense looks pretty efficient when it remembers to bring the ball along with them.
3. NDSU's defense - can't ask for any more.
4. Fairbairn looks like the real deal - can't believe he's a freshman.

can get radio feed but video is still choppy. Actually got to see most of the halftime show, so wonder if it isn't a number of people using it issue

tony
09-17-2006, 01:51 AM
I think there's less movement in the half-time show so it doesn't take as much bandwidth (less movement = more data compression). I had the same thing happen

I turned on All Access video feed just to see what kind of reception I was getting.
4th quarter is as smooth and good of quality as one could expect. I will turn it off, now so as not to steal bandwidth from those of you who need it. TV is snowy (ABC is our weakest channel), but the picture is larger!

Last year the video was always choppy and had to be refreshed every couple of minutes just to keep the feed going.

I think video feed is much better than last year, and I have slow DSL (500 kbps or so).

BisonZone is better for me in the second half. I wonder if some viewers dropped out at halftime. I also changed some connection settings in my Windows Media player, so maybe that helped (I doubt it).

nice plug for bisonville on the audio feed. what's the deal with special teams this season? some of these kickoffs are taking a little of the fun out of watching.

tony
09-17-2006, 02:22 AM
I think the kicks might be not be hanging much.

Anybody know if Cabell is OK? He got absolutely driven into the ground by a big guy from NU (#97?) a couple series ago.

?why are they punting with timeouts left and over a minute left?-bad decision

That should pretty much seal it.

It is great to have the game televised but you could really fell the energy leave the crowd during those long t.v. timeouts.

It really felt like the announcer had to keep reminding the fans what was happening in the game. I think it's easy to forget what is goin on when there is an extra 2:30 break thrown in every few minutes.

Yes, but it is better than having no coverage at all, which is what we up here in Minot face.

As long as Steffes stays healthy we will be fine, Blincoe and Rohl will have step up their games though.

I'm pretty sure Symeon Cabell stayed in the game and carried the ball on the play after he got injured (2.15 into the All Access coverage). I feel terrible for him - he worked awfully hard to get where he is and now he has to wait another year. NDSU's depth at RB is one thing, but right now, I'm just worried about the player - only good thing about a broken bone is that they usually heal up with no lasting effects. I hope that's what happens here. The guy is a warrior.

Steffes took some huge shots too... a couple where the ball got between him and the ground made me hold my breath until he got up. He must be one sore puppy today.

WYOBISONMAN
09-17-2006, 11:39 PM

He was running as good as Steffes. I didn't know he was hurt either until I saw him with the trainer in the tunnel.

The passing game will need to improve for NDSU to win the challenging games that are coming up. Teams are going to start loading up the box again like we saw last year.

Yes

We noticed that he was holding his shoulder after that play and looked like he was dazed because he wandered around and did not join the huddle until the last second. *My friend says, "jeez, I hope they dont give him the ball", which of course is what happened.

After seeing the game yesterday, the team looked solid but I think they'll need to step it up for the remainder of the schedule. I realize they've been off for a few weeks after an easy CSP game, but I think they'll need to step up the passing game (as already mentioned) and be a little less conservative on play calling. Thoughts?

I think the playcalling has been conservative by design, so far. No need to show your cards if you don't need to.


Did I read that right somewhere, only one down of sending more than four at the QB in the Northeastern game?? I think the defense still has a LOT up their sleeves.


14/23 passing will not get the job done in a WCO against the likes of Ball State, UC-Davis, Cal-Poly, and Minnesota. Same goes with putting the ball on the turf three times. Same goes with virtually no return game on special teams (although I don't mind having good hands on punt returns).
