    Why on earth should they talk about us when we aren't even playing them? We don't talk much about them, and when we do it isn't likely flattering.

    From 1964 on, NDSU has played 105 different teams. Nine of those 105 teams have a winning record against NDSU, but eight of those nine teams have only played NDSU once. The only team to have played NDSU more than once and still have a winning series record is Jackonsville State at 2-0. However, the series between NDSU and Youngstown State is tied at 4-4 so if they win on Saturday...

    NDSU is now 20-2 in their first-round playoff games (D2 and FCS.) Amazingly, there are three teams that have been in the playoffs more than 3 times with better winning percentages (Marshall 8-0, Louisiana Tech 4-0, Arkansas Tech 4-0), but NDSU has more first-round playoff wins than any other team in FCS/D2.

    For comparison: Georgia Southern 17-2, North Alabama 16-3, Northwest Missouri State 15-4, Grand Valley State 11-5, App State 12-8, Montana 13-10, Eastern Washington 8-3.

    FargoDome Fun Fact: On the east side of the fargodome an above average sized male can easily lay down between the seats. I was sick yesterday and about to faint at halftime when I laid down to get over that feeling. Probably shouldn't have gone but really didn't want to miss the game. Sorry if I got anyone around us sick.

    I felt crappy all day as well. Went to bed at 8:30 last night with the chills and didnt get out of bed till 11am.

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    2014 Punts blocked = 0 in 59 attempts.

    Since 2006 season = 8 blocked in 456 attempts.

    In 2006 Dragosavich punted only 29 times (11 games) in 2007 with 2 being blocked.

    In 2007 Dragosavich punted only 30 times (11 games) in 2006 with none being blocked.

    59 punts in 22 games ('06 & '07) is really a remarkable stat. Those same two seasons, NDSU opponents punted twice as many times (118)
