***Game Thread NDSU, Week 6***

[run&blade]

Troll my butt. Go to way more uni events than most that post here. I am speaking for the thousands of empty seats.

[FOTY]

why does a 1 pm start kill tailgating?

This pains me a little to say, but I agree with R&B here. My group of 16 will be lucky to have 5 there before noon. We all come from out of town and suffer from those things mentioned earlier - Saturday morning kid soccer and activities. 1:00 hurts out of town folks. Personally I really loved that we owned the 4:00 kick. Fear not, somehow, someway, I’m supposed to drink their share. Urg.


Serious inquiry... what are the chances the grass lots are closed again?

[06panther10]

There will be no walk up. Just looked, they want $57 for aberate seat. Good god, wtf are the Lakers playing at halftime?

this game is about soaking the NDSU fans to help our budget.

Ndsu will I’ll have more fans and rub it in like crazy when they destroy UNI.

Nobody cares about Volleyball, you can get a season ticket for 50 and nobody does.

Start time stinks. Kills tailgating which is only thing fun about football the past decade.

Go go out of your way to compete against Iowa and ISU. Really? Let’s see pay $50+ to watch FCS or stay home and watch FBS for free. Gee let me think it over.

I hope next year they give Farley a ten year extension and have the band sit next to me. It’s about all that is left to destroy uNI football for me. Well I guess another QB that cannot throw as well as a 8th grader.

Good God. I had NO IDEA the ticket prices were this high. That is absolutely laughable, and you are correct that people are not going to pay those prices.

Its amazing to me the myriad of ways that we continually shoot ourselves in the foot in this athletic department. Totally blind and tone deaf decisions being made with just obvious things like ticket prices, game times, etc...

What a joke.

Seats between 30s are over $60. You can’t make it up.

I didn't see alot of sunny days in upcoming forecast. However, I didn't see heavy rain forecasted either. I think they will stay open.

Good luck with the beverage situation FOTY.

Give ndsu credit for awesome trolling. An ad for their university just loaded at the top of this thread. That is getting it done on and off the field.

Mranwhile uni is moving game times so volleyball can be on ESPN+12.

It’s very sad how you tear down UNI VB. This program is very successful and fan attendance is always in the top 10 in the nation. It also is very competitive while playing 95+% Iowa student/athletes. Too bad you’re so narrow minded you can’t support all UNI teams (even if in words only)...

Good God man...put a sock in it.

Every time u touch your keyboard something dumber comes out. And that's saying something.

Yea, as most NDSU/UNI games, as a bison fan I'm worried about an athletic scrambling QB. so if you can make that stop, we'd appreciate that.

I will be watching UNI O Line vs NDSU D Line. I think this is the biggest mismatch of the game. NDSU just rotates in too many guys to keep pace with.

NDSU passing attack has been dismal, and last week NDSU couldn't run which was very sad, since NDSU always dominates the Run Game.

So my prediction for UNI is that you will see pound, pound pound with a 3 RB set with a Fullback leading the way, I just know that what we do after a game which we can't establish a run. NDSU doesn't care if I say it, they won't care if Farley/UNI knows it, that's what we will do.

Our group of 6 cant even find 2 more to come, so maybe we are looking at 5600 attendance Saturday... lol. just kidding.

If u don't want to pay the premium price for the best home game of the season, buy a season ticket.

You gotta pay to play boys.

That's what makes the world go 'round.

I do have season tickets. Which is why I had no idea that they are attempting to charge that much for this game.

Its an outrageous price for an FCS football game, and anybody that has followed UNI sports for more than a couple years would know that the general public simply is not going to pay that much for a UNI game ticket.

Its a really bad idea and I believe we will see a really poor crowd on Saturday because of it. Which is a real shame...

[run&blade]

Family of four can sit top row of uni dome for $230+

It is cheaper to buy 4 tickets to the Kansas City Chiefs game against San Diego in a couple weeks.

anybody still think walkup will be good?

i hope they charge at least $30 for volleyball. It is important enough to move the “game of the year” in football.

You got got to pay to play girls.

[kochrab]

They just did a Facebook post about the game, they’re trying, cut them some slack. Also, if you’re overly concerned with the social media stuff, be a part of the solution and not the problem. The best way to promote UNI is to show up and be loud Saturday. My fam of 4 will be cheering loud from Colorado. Go Panthers!

Somebody needs to go check on Lakes. I think the real guy must be tied up somewhere while this imposter posts objective football analysis and humility about the traveling prowess of the Bison fanbase.

Seriously, you are under-appreciated for your actual football acumen.

Any thoughts specifically from the SDSU game that should be things for us to look for this weekend?

[UNIdad]

how much were tickets when the basketball team hosted North Carolina?
Oh hey, that game had a 1 p.m. start too.

I didn't think anything new could be said about the 1pm start, but you came up with one!
