2025 Game 6: Southern Illinois

[TAILG8R]

You factoring in the ndsu next week let down game?

I’ve started to think about it less as a NDSU letdown game and more of a realism set in after playing a real team.

I think the UND/SIU matchup in Carbondale this weekend will be a pretty good indicator as to whom the #3 team in the Valley is this year.

I'm still not 100% convinced that sdsu is #2, and we are pretty deep into the season to still be wondering about that.

I wouldn't be very surprised if SDSU ends up a 2 loss team.

Where ndsu has overwhelmed my expectations on offense, SDSU has massively underwhelmed. I'm not sure that necessarily means they aren't the 2nd best team in the valley, but they seem to be quite a bit worse than they were under either of the past 2 head coaches.

I think its quite possible UND is better than SDSU. On offense for sure.

They won't play this year, but sdsu vs siu would probably be a pretty good game.

I'm feeling the same way about SDSU. Their defense is legit but their offense is questionable. They've looked good at times and pretty bad at others. Would have liked to see them play a team we've played before we play them but not going to happen.

IMO you can flip that analysis for the Bison. Offense been pretty damn good but I'm not sold on defense. SIU offense didn't have any trouble moving the ball, just shot themselves in the foot with fumbles or could very well have been a shoot out.
