Time for redemption. Start fast and finish stronger. This needs to be a statement game!

Bison: 38
Angry Birds: 13

Do the Redbirds sense this is the year to beat the Bison and go extra hard? Do the Bison have the determination but lack the ability? Can our offensive coach make adjustments when the defense makes adjustments? More questions need answers.

[KSBisonFan]

I don't trust our defense for 4 quarters, and I don't trust our coaches in close games. That would have been a preposterous statement at any other time during our run. Game will be closer than expected. Hopefully, we don't make a stupid mistake, turnover or penalty at the wrong time. Someone on the DL and a LB need to step up for the stretch run.

I'll be watching our WRs and TEs and hopefully we see further growth. Roehl needs to put Cam and our offense in a position to be successful like we did the first half against SDSU. Pass the freaking ball when they are stacking the box! More carries for Tamerek would be nice too.

Bison pull out a close win. I hope I'm wrong and we play a dominant game and win big.

Back to the basics. I just want to see some tackling, blocking, and no stupid penalties eh. The rest should buff out if they could do those 3 things eh.

[scottietohottie]

Gosh darn nd 9man playoff committee is about as bad as the fcs one. Going to have to win today to finally see a different team next week. Already beat these guys eh. Frustrating eh.

[Strommer10]

Current betting line looks to be NDSU -18. NDSU will win coming off of the bye week, but that seems too high of a point spread.

Bison 24-22

For lack of better place to put this Western Illinois has 52 players inactive today per a quoted tweet that Jeff just tweeted a few minutes ago. COVID? Or did the many players get in trouble.
