Best part will be seeing Jimmy sitting on his ass as the NDSU offense grinds out one 8 min drive after another.....

I don't think their D is good enough to hold our run game down for 8 minutes at a time

but who knows, they put up scoring number last year similar to this year and SDSU blew them out

I wonder what they did to their defense this year compared to last? They appear to be much improved. I skimmed through their roster and I noticed a few Juco d-lineman.

For some perspective, NDSU is 68-6 in the 4th quarter this season.

That is definitely some perspective.

*curse you Missouri State and your 6 4th quarter points

if you look at their schedule the NIU game is only the one that stands out, but NIU is a throw it out team too.

SDSU pounded the rock and took over in the second half cause they beat them up. that game was close in the first half then Zenner took over and their Dline

I think the same happens this year and the committee gets egg on their face for the OVC getting in that many and a #2

I could be totally wrong though

I really, really think SDSU is the dark horse the more I look at that other bracket. If Sumner can just make a few big throws, and the O line does their job, they could play their way to Frisco. I like their chances against the Big Fluffy and the Ohio Valley.

I tend to agree. Per Sagarin, they're favored by 6 this weekend.

Round 2: 6 1/2 point dog to NAU making them and UNH the best upset prospects of the round.

Quarters: 1/2 point dog to McNeese. Should McNeese be upset SDSU would be favored against any other opponent.

Semis: Big dog to EIU 16 pts and 6 points to Towson favored in any other matchup.

SDSU chances of making it to Frisco are 5 times better than anyone else playing this weekend.

You might be right about the OVC, but I would say that 3 TD win at San Diego St. is a pretty nice result as well as the close one at NIU

I think it depends on their Defense, if the team that blew out SELA shows up they have a legit shot to go deep, but if they lay an egg in the defensive backfield EIU and or EWU will shred them, unless they get pressure

offensively I think they are ok, if Zenner gets rolling there will be open easy throws for Sumner

I for one will be watching that game on Saturday in Flagstaff

NDSU sagar in ranking was brought up on reusse show last week, they said it doesn't matter when they don't play a solid team outside of Kansas state

[Hammerhead]

I wonder if they mean really tough teams like Minnesota and Iowa. Sagarin's strength of schedule has NDSU only 4 spots behind Louisville.
