    Pretty hilarious that he issues a final score projection of 38-22 and then suggests Samford +16.5 is the best bet. That's a pretty thin margin there, bud!

    Hmmmm well maybe there are other things that we are a part of. I will be coaching a School basketball game at this time, which my daughter is a part of the team. My son will have basketball practice, probably until kickoff. So he will finish at 6, I will finish at 6:30. If we didn't have those, our girls basketball team is also playing that night. It is a road game, so no idea if we would be going.

    I've been to close to a couple hundred home games now since I graduated college, so the want to be there is there. But people do have other priorities that are more important than Bison football. Especially when they changed the schedule this year. I was excited to be there on Saturday, as I had no commitments.

    We've always had fans with other priorities so nothing changes there. It may be affecting you now and not previously, but in 2013-15 when we were seeking our quickly, the people who had other conflicts might not now. The only thing they'd changed is the fact we've done this many times now and it's not seen as a unique experience. The cost as well has probably gone up. Don't defend the time you are spending coaching your kids. That time will go fast.

    Spot on. Individual priorities are nothing new. The perceived value of attending a Bison football game at the Fargodome has declined. Saying that fans are spoiled (even if it may have some truth to it) will not do anything to improve attendance. The perceived value of attending a Bison football game needs to be increased.

    Only if you think people pulling donations is crushing. I guess that would crush the program.

    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.

    I am biting the bullet, pulling the kids outta school early and making the drive up I94 this weekend.
    The weather in Fargo keeps the undesirables out.....

    ...Which is why I live near the Twin Cities.

    Don't forget to wear green for the code green game. I usually wear a yellow hoodie to keep warm on the walk from the car, but I guess my green pullover will be OK if it's in the 20s.
    It's OK to not be OK.
