Re: Montana state playoff game
"I'm not super interested in talking smack with Bizon fans here, so I don't want to hear about how good NDSU is but I do have a couple questions for those fans. Do you think you've faced players in the skill positions as fast as Troy Andersen and Travis Jonsen? Secondly, have you faced an RB that runs as hard as Isaiah Ifanse? Lastly, have you faced an OL as good as what MSU has?"
I hope NDSU still bothers to show up on Saturday........ Now I'm worried
On a side note..... Do you know what is awesome about this board? The fact that none of you create a thread half way through the week titled "Is it Saturday yet" then proceed to elaborate on how you can't wait for gameday ........ You know.......... Just like all the rest of us.

Alpha, your post reminded my of a quote from Carson Wentz when coming out for the draft. He was asked a few times who the best CB he faced. He'd always say, "Marcus Williams in practice." There guys clearly don't understand our guys go against unbelievable talent everytime they do "good vs good" or a young up and coming player is scouting against a stud. NDSU is winning mainly due to good recruiting coupled with fantastic player development......

I really don't think we stand much of a chance Saturday, but we might as well play since it is my understanding that we can't buy our way out of the game. There is also speculation on their board as to where their next game will be played after both JMU and MSU win.
Re: Montana state playoff game
First half spread at -18.5

No actually I cant say Ive ever watched players as awesome as those on MSU that you speak so highly of. I recall a few years back I was gonna have the chance to but MSU paid there way out of the game. It appears the only thing faster and more elusive than your skilled players is your ADMINISTRATION, "and for that shame you will pay dearly on Saturday!!!!"

We did struggle initially with UIW, who I thought had 2 stud players on defense, but our MO is similar to NDSU in that we just keep pounding and pounding and eventually wear teams down. Those 2 yard carries turned into 8 yard carries in the 4th quarter. But as I've said earlier in this thread, that isn't going to happen against NDSU. We are going to have to find other ways to move the ball than just pound our ball carriers against your stacked box all day long. And I honestly have no idea what that could be.

It may help to sneak a few plays in during the National Anthem!!!

UIW (Out of 124 teams)
Total Defense (110) 479.2
Scoring D (93) 34.1
Rush Defense (74) 183.9

And it is being touted as "A good win against a quality team".

We aren’t invincible on D. We have given up yardage and had one game where the defense was flat out awful. That was against a team that showed up tossing the ball. Thing is NDSU looks good on both sides of the ball and the defense usually seems to hike their play to another level in playoffs. You will have to throw to stay in this game. Do that and play good D and this could be an interesting game
