2017 Game 6 Preview: Youngstown State

[Bison bison]

Funny story about Youngstown. My wife applied for a job out there last year. I realized I could buy a house there for almost nothing.

End sell it for even less 20 years from now!

I went back to confirm. There are only 7 houses within the city limits that are selling for more than 150k.

We haven't really played any team with a pulse yet. EWU is just now starting to gel offensively. YSU will be the best team we have played and it's not even close. Looking like it'll be a slug fest.

EWU put up 650 yards and 56 points the week after playing NDSU. Since the NDSU game their offensive lows are 41 points and 501 yards. Their offense has been fine, they just haven't seen a defense anything near NDSU's since then.

Gubrud missed some throws and their WR's had some drops against us so I still don't think they were fine at that point.

that seems to be a theme among teams playing us this year.


I wonder if there's a commonality anywhere.......

I'm going to be in the Cities this weekend (Woodbury) and am looking for a place to watch the game. The closest official Alumni watch party to our hotel is Roseville, which isn't all that close. Does anyone know of other places in the east suburbs that show Bison games?

I would think any sports bar in town would be able to find it.

Hello everyone. Looking forward to the game. Yes we are limited with our back up quarterback. However, USD had to put 9 in the box and sometimes all 11 to stop the run. Play calling was not very good considering the injury circumstances. We've played 2 very physical games. While we beat SDSU the win came with some significant costs in terms of injuries. Game planning was poor against USD and our back up qb is dealing with injury as well. I don't care about the outcome because the back half of the schedule should be easier for us. Unfortunately the playoff selection committee doesn't consider the back to back to back weeks we've played against top 10 teams. It takes a toll. They only care about the result. I hope we are competitive against your team which is the FCS measuring stick. Hope it is close and good. Tons of respect on the YSU side.

Looking forward to the test of our defensive line. We have good depth, but not sure how good they are yet. This is the week to find out.
