Missouri State is the worst in the league. The thing about them, is their new staff played no upper classman, they all got a year older, he can coach. Nothing would shock me. Is it true NDSU averaged a yard more at tailback than UND did? It was just posted. In the valley vs the sky? Is that even possible?
NCAA website: http://www.ncaa.com/stats/football/fcs/current/team/23
UND: 546 rushes for 2501 yards = 4.58 YPC
NDSU: 596 rushes for 3372 yards = 5.66 YPC

Big Sky + dogshit OOC vs. Valley + two playoff teams + Iowa....I couldn't believe it either.
