North Dakota State, a football team the big boys of college football should avoid like the plague, helped christen a $90 million renovation to Snyder Family Stadium — including a statue of famed Kansas State coach Bill Snyder himself — by taking a sledgehammer to the place.Bob Lutz, The Wichita Eagle, August 30th, 2013

My boss hates it when I shorten his name to Dick, mainly because his name is Steven.
Matt Entz takes responsibility for the 2 point conversion. I respect a coach that actually admits he screwed up. Big props to coach Entz

No way in hell SDSU should have been dropped to #5. If anything, their performance warranted a promotion to #2.
Talk about the most anti-climatic play-by-play call my MidCo when it came to the 4th and 1 TD run. I'll take Brian Shawn's call.
I have both videos right before the play happened. First is MidCo. Next is VNL.

Re-read the post. Yes, as an FBS level school with a new addition, they could absolutely host a low level B1G/Big XII school. ODU hosted Virginia this year, Mizzou played at Wyoming, Kansas goes to Coastal next year. I'm sure that there are more from this year but those are off the top of my head. Agreed on them not needing 22-23k now or ever unless they went FBS, and then they would only need the extra space to host big games once every few years.
Yeah, I listened to all of them... both TV calls and both radio calls. Midco TV definitely was the worst of the 4. Props to SDSU's radio guy, he had excitement in his voice even though it obviously wasn't going the way of his team. Shawn's call was better than Culhane's... Jeff still gets a little too worked up I think but it was kind of funny to hear his voice crack and you could almost picture him staring at Phil after Cofield scoring with his mouth wide open and a "Can you believe that just happened?!?!?" look on his face and Phil just shaking his head grinning.
We were talking in the tailgate lot after the game how that would've been a classic Scottie Miller call. In my imagination it was similar to the Walker to Heckendorf bomb that capped that unbelievable comeback at Cal Poly in '07: "Cofield breaks free down the sideline! He's at the midfield... the 40, 30, 20, 10... he's in! Touchdown Bison! They take a 22-16 lead with 2:32 left to play on a 71 yard touchdown run by Adam Cofield. The crowd at Dana J Dykhouse stadium is stunned! MYYYY oh my!"
RIP Scottie.
