I don’t necessarily agree with this take, but damnit, I want it to be true so I’m just gonna go with that.

You think they lose to those SHSU teams?

2018 SDSU woulda beat EWU
2019 SDSU gave us a better game than JMU but of course was annihilated by injury late in the season.
2020 SDSU might be really good if they can stay healthy but NDSU is unfortunately going to be in GOAT mode and there isn't going to be a season anyway.
Re: Let the (offseason) fireworks begin
From my count the only years NDSU knocked them out of the playoffs where 12,13,16 and 18 as if that's not enough :)
So that would be:
2012 SHSU2
2014 ISU Red
2016 Youngstown - because the Jackboys where on our side obviously they would have had to beat JMU to even have a chance to beat Youngstown in Frisco
2018 EWU
So my take is they maybe beat SHSU2 although I don't remember SDSU in 2012.
ISUr runs all over them.
I don't believe they would have made it past JMU to even get to the Chipper.
EWU walks away laughing

I agree. Jacks don’t play to their potential in playoffs. Also I think people under rate 2011 SHSU and 18 EW. SH had a legit stud D in 11 and a good offense. Jacks would have stood zero chance. 18 EW beats any other team not named NDSU

I don't understand why everyone thinks 2018 EWU was so great. IMO it was one of the worst teams NDSU played in the championship.

they were better than Towson
Re: Let the (offseason) fireworks begin
SDSU wasn’t going to beat GSU in semis in 12, or 11 for that matter. Imho 18 or 13 would have been best chance for them.

This is a really valid point. I completely forgot about GSU. Happy for their programs success but man I wish they'd stuck around FCS.

I felt like they shot themselves in the foot a lot. They scored easily on us at times. I think that could have been a close game
