it should have a lot of interest in the dakotas! i dont understand why ndsu fans find it upsetting that gopher fans dont care about this game unless they know ndsu alum? i would like to go to this game because i have a lot of ndsu friends, however i had to compromise with the old lady and ndsu was the first game that i would be willing to miss over the rest of our home schedule. ndsu is not our rival and never will be and many ndsu fans think we are some type of hated enemy. i respect your team im just not concerned about the bizon knocking us off of a 3-5 win season.
by the way, i dont think there is a chance in hell your qb and wr situation is a threat at all! dj is a beast and your defense will be tough, but i have no worries about your passing game.
vraa isnt a d1 wr-too slow, too soft and didnt deserve the mr football award!
Thank you for continuing to come onto our board to tell us you have no interest in the game.
The only people worried about our passing game right now is us. Kind of like yours.
I'll try to explain why some NDSU people want to manufacture a rivalry with U of M. I know of 3 reasons and probably more exist;
1. Trolls. You've been guilty in the past of trolling here. Fair or not, opponent fans represent a fanbase.
2. Football > hockey and if we can beat (relative) big dogs in football it shuts up the tools from UND about their team of Canadian 25 year old hockeyers.
3. A minority if ND people have a MN chip on their shoulder. Most don't, but a vocal minority does.
3.
Also- since you're so much more interested in the New Mexico game, how many posts do you have on their board?
New mexico st doesn't excite me...ndsu is better by a lot then new mexico. But its the home opener so by default of the schedule they get bumped in front of ndsu. If you switch the game dates and ndsu is the home opener its easily the 2nd best non conf game imo
Also, new mex state fans are boring, they don't believe they will win
