    Re: 2023 Sagarin Says

    My favorite storyline in football playoffs by far. If the team with the easy path or bye wins the big game, they were rested. If they lose, they were rusty. The story writes itself no matter what!...
  2. Re: NFL vs College Football if you had to pick one or the other...

    Still enjoy the NFL, but man today gives me hope that the good western FCS schools will be able to keep the magic college alive when the major programs run off chasing NFL lite status.
  3. Re: NFL vs College Football if you had to pick one or the other...

    I think still college, but could easily see giving up on it if my worse fears about NIL, transfer portal, and realignment all come true.

    There is something to the parity of opportunity in the NFL...

    Re: Season Ticket Renewals

    So what you're saying is that the demographics of our fanbase has a gap that it didn't used to have. That is an enthusiasm drop no matter how we want to rationalize it.

    Surely there were busy fans...

    Re: PLAYERS AND SOCIAL MEDIA a pure distraction

    LOL crazy that no other teams have social media or NIL stuff. "This thing that is happening to everyone is only hurting me" is my favorite. Like my buddy who blames the rain we both played in if he...

    So...Boise and San Diego State potentially leaving the Mountain West is interesting.

    Re: Let Road Warrior Attend UCA game

    CyPanth, thank you.

    I think the only thing I really actually want to see out of this season is for the streak to continue.

    LOL come on man. Coaches, remember these are football coaches not social justice professors, coaches all over the country were worried about this two season business. Let's just take it on faith that...
  10. Re: What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.

    Two firmly held beliefs I hold which I cannot reconcile. 1-Wentz is to blame for most of his problems and we on b'ville tend to over-rate him 2-my god please make a Cousins trade happen and bring...

    Re: NDSU to the NFL

    I think all of us will miss that, but even if NDSU never goes FBS that era of FCS is gone and we'll miss it.

    Re: NDSU to the NFL

    Correct. This forum and this fanbase in general has always calculated that FCS 'ships are more valuable than the Cheez-It bowl or whatever. Which is a fair opinion to have. But we've also sort of...

    As an alternative option, since we "play for championships" and are apparently not bored/embarrassed for beating up on clearly undermanned opposition perhaps we should compete at the High School...

    Re: Carson Wentz

    He's not really calling a person a racist here, he's rightly pointing out that mediocre white QBs are more likely to have their mediocrity explained away than mediocre black QBs. Not near as true as...

    Were these hurdles not present for all of the other schools have recently made the jump? To torture your metaphor, hurdles are meant to be lept over they aren't meant to be a stop sign.

    It's rare to read such a lucid and well-thought out post on an internet forum, so thank you.

    Feel like it's very relevant to this conversation that maybe he premier brand in MWC, Boise State, is reportedly interested in jumping ship from MWC to AAC.

    Has the Rutgers move to the Big Ten been a disaster? It depends on what the goal was! For Rutgers it was in improvement in their financial situation. For the Big Ten it was continued media revenue...

    Re: NDSU to the FBS

    I'm not sure I follow how this isn't an pro-FBS argument. I agree, we wouldn't want to be in a second-rate division that nobody nationally cares about. And this is why I want us to leave FCS. It has...

    Re: NDSU to the FBS

    Tend to agree. As much as we think of ND as "west" of the midwest and as much as I prefer the opponent roster in the MWC, MAC probably makes more sense for us.

    Biggest risk in all of this, in my...
