North Dakota State back in FCS championship

[wyoming556]

Looks like the Bison are back in the Championship game after a close call in the semis against Georgia Southern and the game before that against Wofford.

Rematch of last years game against Sam Houston St. They looked pretty tough against Montana St. Also played Baylor and aTm fairly close. I can't figure out who thier first game was against, team called Incarnate Word? WTH??

Smalls, if you win the FCS championship 2 years in a row that means you have to jump up and play FBS right? JK, congrats to your squad. They beat Colorado st as well.

Maybe this year if you win they will sent the banner to the right school. NCAA idiots!

The game last night was a good one. The Bison have found a way to win a lot of games that maybe that should not have. Bring on Sam Houston!

Look at all the high maintenence 2 legged split tail walking around. Lived in that area for a few years after I graduated from OSU and can tell you there are a lot of good looking women in that part of the world. You can go deer or hog hunting if you have time, should be rutting right now. Some good Corps of Engineers land around Lake Texoma and lots of public land in Southern Oklahoma. Catch a Mavs or Cowboys game if they are in town. I think you will be a week or so early to watch any "real" or "big boy" FBS college football teams like OU and OSU play. Plan on lots of traffic as well.

I'm sure NHY can give you a better idea as It's been almost 10 years since I lived there.

I won't have time for a hunt,just a weekend trip. Our rapid city Rush hockey team is playing down there while we are there so we may end up going and supporting them. Definitely gonna hit up a bass pro shop.

So this is better than spelling out the word that you complained about Randy not editing out of others posts?

 

[wyoming556]

Smalls, what is your final score prediciton?

Didn't complain, pointed out. To answer your question since it wasn't edited I guess it must be.

Was just giving the North Dakota State fans a little greeting used by opposing teams when they play in Texas. Figured being from so far north they might no know. If you havent been to a OU/Texas or OSU/TacoTech game you would't understand.

Looks like it's all tied up at half.

 

[Goldtip]

Not tied up anymore. Looks like the Bison will win it pretty handily, 19 point lead with 8 minutes left.

 

[wyoming556]

Nice win by the Bison. Lots of happy NoDak's in Dallas right now.

Hopefully the idiots at the NCAA will send the banner to the right school this year unlike last..

Don't get to excited Nodaks. Come to realize they are a bunch of slow moving athaletes who couldn't make it at division 1 schools and nobody but a few folks from here in N D. care about the win or will even know about this 2'nd tier game. .Good for You guys from here. The NoDaks at least have a reason to celabrate now instead of just gettin drunk every day cause its cold..........Now have another shot. And seriously Congrats. I hope they win another 1 next year........BOB!

 

[hardscrabble]

Bob,

The folks you mention who are not proud of their home team are like you and not from here. Nothing wrong with that. Those of us who are born and raise here are proud. The whole stadium was full of gold so I am pretty sure that every one from North Dakota CARES!

If you hate North Dakota so much, please go home. We don't care.

I don't know how I missed this thread. Game was awesome, atmosphere was awesome and there is a flat out party in the lobby of our hotel tonight. I however am sick as a dog and have to start the 18 hour drive home in the morning.

who556, no reason to move up until they figure out a playoff system for the non bcs teams in fbs. I want no part of the "beef o bradys" bowl.

naturebob, since I have nothing nice to say I won't say anything at all. go home.

 

[Straight Arrow]

Hey, Bob, if you're a "division 1" school graduate, you must have missed the remedial spelling class during which the expressions "athlete" and "celebrate" and "2nd" were covered.

Ignorance is bliss ... regardless of the football division of the college of higher learning you attended.

Congratulations, BISON! BOBCAT alum from podunk second tier football division Montana State University (but, boy can we spell ... and hand me a hot toddy; it's freezing here!)

Nice win for your squad, pretty cool that you drove that far to watch as well. Sounds like a great turnout for your fans as well. Propably a nice break from the cold weather, not to mention some eye candy.

I'd say once the ACC is split between the SEC, PAC, B1G, and Big 12 and they breakoff from the NCAA to form a football league that pays stipends to players would be the right time to move up. At that point FBS would propably go back to a playoff system similar to FCS and you would be playing in a league of equals instad of against teams that have athletic budgets over 50 million and in some cases over 100 million. At that point there would be no reason for teams like MT and NDSU to play FCS sports.

Have a safe trip home.

Comments like that won't help the opinions that North Dakotan's have of oil field workers.

It is this kind of attitude that alienates the long term residents of this state. Yet you look for hunting access advice from locals in ND? My advice, start walking.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. I guess I would rather watch a team fight to be the best in class vs a 6-7 team fight for a years supply of Beef O Brady.

Since you don't care, our highways which allowed you to come to this state to support yourself, allow you to leave also.
