Re: GDT: NDSU vs. Eastern Washington (FCS National Championship)
It’s the day we’ve all been waiting for. Time to make history as the greatest FCS team of all time. No way this senior class lets us down in Klieman’s last game. Lets dominate from the tailgate lot to the stands to the field and then all meet on the field around 2 pm to again watch the boys in green and gold hoist another trophy! Lets go win another national championship!!
Bison: 42
Baby Birds: 20

Re: GDT: NDSU vs. Eastern Washington (FCS National Championship)
Now this is the law of the prairie
As old and as true as the sky
And the Bison that keep it will prosper
And the Bison that break it will die
As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk
This law is the final word:
For the strength of the Herd is the Bison
And the strength of the Bison is the Herd.

Re: GDT: NDSU vs. Eastern Washington (FCS National Championship)
Today is the day that can be of major importance in NDSU history, especially that of its football program. Not to long ago, the institution decided to move up from DII to DI after years of decent mediocrity for a very successful football program. Who would have thought that in such a short time, the program now stands a chance to reach top of the mountain for the seventh time and surpass a great program like Georgia Southern? Well, I'm expecting to see that dream become a reality.
Not to be too disrespectful to EWU, but there is going to have to be a lot of things go their way in order for them to upset this Bison team. However, that Bison team is too focused and experienced to have mistakes allow for this game to slip away from their control. I expect the Eagles to be competitive and get their points, but not enough to keep up with the Bison. I predict NDSU finishes the season 15-0 and wins their fifteenth title overall with a 45-24 victory.

Re: GDT: NDSU vs. Eastern Washington (FCS National Championship)
48-17, Bison. No way this team loses. Locked in is an understatement for this years team. I expect EWU to have a few big plays, but defensively we are too dominant and offensively, well, our stable of backs will eat them alive. My greatest hope is their DT starts, and we run Power several times and watch him crumble like most do against us. It's gonna be a great day and what a better way to send off 24 seniors and Coach K and some of the staff.

Is there a new rule where we have to spot them 20 before it starts? While I agree EWU is better than we might think, I would bet everything that they don't score 38.

Awesome! Rocky is the fucking man. Dr. Arden Beachy was on with "Hot Take" Brake on Thursday. Behind my dad, he is the one guy that kick-started my Bison fandom. His brother was my student teacher in 3rd grade, ran into him at a game and he asked if me, my best friend and my dad wanted to meet Arden. Got to meet Arden and his parents and some of the other guys, after that it was on. I was always number 3 in any sport I played after that.
Thinking of my dad today, Go Bison! Horns. Fucking. Up.

Multiple sources close to Jay-Tee Tiuli's situation told me he will not play in today's FCS national title game.
Almost an hour before kickoff and he isn't dressed down.
