We can't seem to win against the state of Louisiana either. :?
Pretty sure most of the state is west of the Mississippi.

I guess that rules out wanting to play in Frisco, then. May as well decline the NCAA's bid.

I only saw it for one game, but it wasn't very impressive.
Which game did you see? If it was the UD-ODU game, then you saw the Hens gain only 80 yards on the ground (Pierce - 14 carries for a net 21 yards). The Hens currently average 164 YPG rushing.


And where is the next offering in the Sensitivity Training thread?

We heard them lamenting how the Towson loss was the most heartbreaking thing that happened in Virginia since their state bent over in 1865. I wonder how bad they'll be crying when GSU or Appy makes them look silly. Then you'll get to hear all the rationalizations about how they're just a poor little startup, etc. It's like a broken record.

I want no part of Georgia Southern. I have a feeling their triple option would give us fits.

Well, then you might be the ONLY bison fan who doesn't want to pay back the Eagles for NOT coming to Fargo this year.

Are you referring to the 2006 business?

Yeah, I know what the triple option is all about- I watch the service academies and GT religiously, simply because I love watching that offense hum along.

Easier said than done, or else they wouldn't still be running almost 20 years after Paul Johnson left. NDSU hasn't played a veer/option team in the last 3-4 years if memory serves correctly.

Dumb Post. Everyone wants to stay home the entire playoffs until the NC. Only a select few get that luxury.

If we knew the answer to that we wouldn't have trouble with the Southland. :lol: Or LSU.

I don't want to play anyone EXCEPT Montana and NDSU - 'Cats need to whup both teams as often as possible simply so I feel better :lol:

And if we get our azzes on a platter (aka that fiasco last year) - well I guess I would rather hear the smack from a Griz or Bison fan than an East Coast team

I agree with you 93. I am not afraid of GSU. Maybe I got the wrong impression from the 2.5 games I watched this year, but they did not impress me, especially their passing game. I realize they are a triple option team, and thus their passing shouldn't be strong, but even with that taken into consideration, it was abysmal.

GSU is a ground and pound team, not much on passing. ASU actually liked it when they passed against us. :thumb:

Just edited my comment to state, I know they don't pass much, but what I saw was even bad.

It's not that they didn't know where Northern Iowa or Cedar Falls was exactly on a map, that's a totally different task. It's that several players said they couldn't find Iowa on a map. All ribbing aside that Iowa is in the middle of nowhere, its basic elementary school geography. I'll even give them the benefit of the doubt and say they forgot their geography skills over the year...but one player thought Iowa was north of California on the West Coast :ohno: C'MON MAN!! :dunce:

Yeah....if you watch the video it isn't "Point exactly to UNI on this map of the US"....it was "Tell me where Iowa is on the map"...The answers were Above California and what not....Keep in mind this game was in Febuary and one player said "I don't know where Iowa is, but I hope it isn't cold this time of year"
