Re: 2021 Game 7: Missouri State
looks like another game of our defense squaring up and stopping the offense. and then hoping our offense can actually move the ball competitively.
seems like this year's team is similar to one in the past where the defense can be nasty and great, but the offense is never really unleashed and dominates.
24-7 Bison

Entz is like a knockoff version of Mike McCarthy.
I hope that Saturday is the day we finally get you all. It's been a long time coming. Don't think we are going to get too many chances until we are in another conference so I am very excited to get the W. I love all of the disrespect from the NDSU coaching staff and the Fargo media. It's an absolute godsend. Petrino is going to be very diplomatic, very Belichick like this week with the media. Not going to do anything to poke the hornet's nest.
I'd be curious to see that quote. Got a link?
I don't ever hear what you're referring to, regardless of opponent. All I ever hear is them needing to go 1-0 this week, and trying to get better every day. I don't think NDSU is going to take Mo St lightly either, I don't see that kind of thing happening with this Bison team this year. Frankly, I think they know they have underperformed up to this point, and don't think they have arrived. Can't tell you the last time, if ever, I've been excited about a game against the Bears. Even looking at the schedule earlier this year I would've circled this one as an easy win....and with that line of thinking it's a good thing I'm just a fan and not a student athlete on the team I cheer for. Looing forward to Saturday!! Go Bison!

Who is this UCLA transfer you are talking about? Lane transferred in from Western Kentucky and Scott is a transfer from Central Michigan.

It was stated in the postgame interview after the game in Springfield. Perhaps he didn't know he was on air? Regardless I doubt K-State's coach disparaged SIU after their ballgame and I bet the coach at Wyoming didn't comment on the caliber of the players on the Northern Illinois Huskies team after that ballgame. Different culture in Fargo now. I doubt it impacts the game too much on Saturday but it is notable.

Call us when they hang a Bison helmet in the locker room and all dress in flannel and high heels :bunnyb:

It seems obvious to me that Entz did not know they were love at the time BUT I'm sure he learned a valuable lesson about assuming the mic is always hot.
Bottom line, he said it and I'm sure every player on the Missouri St team has heard it and is using as fuel this week. I'm excited to see a decent Bears team come to the dome instead of the little hapless cubbies that have made the trip for so many years. We as fans might actually care to be loud if they can put up a decent fight.

I mean.... he wasn't wrong.
I guess we'll find out Saturday whether our sophomores (or in some cases still freshmen) are still better than their transfers.

I heard Dom say this morning that they have a total of 30 transfers on that team. LOL
Re: 2021 Game 7 Preview: Missouri State
This is not the Mizzou State team of old. They are competitive and have shot at making playoffs.
