2023 Sagarin Says

[Hammerhead]

We will see a blowout. Montana is not very good. We absolutely shit the bed against them and tbh we weren’t very good either

That's kind of what I'm thinking. The Bison Offense was really struggling and the game still went to overtime so the Griz may be in for a shock when they face SDSU's offense. This may be the third year in a row where the natty is a blowout well before halftime.

So using end of 2023 season predictor numbers & 2.39 point home field advantage... we would be approximately 1 point dogs at Colorado?


54 North Dakota State AA = 73.14 11 4 56.63( 143) 74.20

59 Colorado A = 70.92 4 8 76.89( 6) 72.94

I see SDSU finished at 18, this pretty consistent with the best NDSU teams?

Very nice work Bowler. Thanks for sharing.

Yet another benchmark where our little brothers to the south come up just a bit short. LOL It's cute that they try though!

But but “5 in a row” is what they (SDSU fans) say. The response to that is “yes, we (NDSU) did win 5 in a row”.
