Next up: North Dakota State Bizon

Re: Next up: North Dakota State Bizon

I hope we beat them so bad they never want to step foot inside the dumpy dome of theirs ever again.

To make my point clear: Imagine your (wife/husband/girlfriend/boyfriend/pet emu) getting the rail business from the person you hate most in the world, in your bed. Throw some assorted power tools in if it rings your bell, but you're a freak if you do.

Now, would you want to see that bed ever again? HELLS NO!

Haha....love it!

Re: Next up: North Dakota State Bizon

Good analysis Clenz. The only flaw I see in your reasoning, and the reason I am picking NDSU is the strength of schedule issue. Our stats would look just like yours if we had your schedule, less Iowa. Im impressed by the Iowa game.

Despite what others have said about Iowa State, they continue to have a better overall defense than Iowa and NDSU put up 388 yds on the Cyclones.

I give you maturity, your team has more experience. I also believe you have a better defense but not so good that NDSU cant keep pace.

Couldn't disagree more. Iowa State's defense should not be in the same sentence as Iowa's. That's almost laughable. So throw out NDSU and UNI's toughest games and their schedules look pretty similar. Please don't start telling me Wagner and Sam Houston State are quality opponents or even Illinois State.

Re: Next up: North Dakota State Bizon

Im sorry about that, I meant they have a better offense than Iowa, which tends to make your defensive effort against them look better than it might have been.

Iowa State #53
Iowa #73

The Iowa defense continues to be statistically better than Iowa State.

Our schedules do not look similar. NDSU has so far played a tougher schedule. We have played SIU and our opponents, even Wagner (#14 in scoring nationally), are having some pretty good years if their statistics are correct.

Sam Houston State #19 total offense nationally.

You havent played Ill State yet so thats a wash. They are better than you think.

We arent setting the world on fire or anything but we have been in every game to the end and should have won them all. Penalties have killed the Herd.

What you want to focus on is how we have stayed with everyone no matter how many points they scored.

Re: Next up: North Dakota State Bizon

JBB, I don't know if you fully grasp the concept of how difficult it is for an FCS team to go in and beat a TOP 15 ranked FBS team.

Iowa State scored 3 points against Iowa. Their offense is not even close to Iowa's. Just another absurd statement from a Bison fan that doesn't know squat about football.

Just because Wagner and SHSU score a lot of points doesn't make them good teams. Maybe the reason they're top 20 in scoring is because NDSU's defense is the worst in the conference....minus Indiana St.

Keep telling yourself Illinois State is a decent team. They are one of the bottom 3 or 4 teams in the conference.

As far as schedules go they are very similar. Iowa is far superior to SIU and Illinois State is better than Indiana State, so that's a split. SHSU, Wagner, USD, and St. Francis are all bad teams, no matter how many points they score. Wagner and SHSU are 104 and 105 in scoring defense if you want to throw out stats.

Re: Next up: North Dakota State Bizon

JBB, just promise me you'll be here about 7pm on Saturday.

I mean it. Promise. Say "I promise." If you don't, I'm going to slap your mouth.

Re: Next up: North Dakota State Bizon

You probably wont see me until Sunday, but Ill be here to recap the game for you guys win or lose.

Ps. ISU had a tough time against Iowa because the week before the Cyclones had the stuffing knocked out of them by The BISON. They have recovered now and are doing well.

Re: Next up: North Dakota State Bizon

Yeah, that's it.

All that cold must permanently freeze brains in ND.

I'm going to look forward to many years of knocking the snot out of these people.

This is just another preseason game that will be over at halftime.

Man, when does the fun part of the year begin for Panther football!?

Re: Next up: North Dakota State Bizon

I don't think there is a point margin we could reach and I would no longer be happy with winning by more against the bison.

it's 72-0 should we take a knee? against Indiana state yes, NDSU no.
