Congrats to the Eagles. That was a hard fought, hard hitting game between two great teams that weren't able to put the other away until the end.
Wait a minute? I'm not funny? I'm the Conan O'Brien of the board, geez. If I wasn't dancing around my living room right now celebrating the end of villanova's season I might be offended by that. But no stifling my buzz tonight man, nova's outta here baby!!!!!!

EWU better take advantage of THIS turnover.
Villanova playing like the Griz did in Cheney.
Wow, I didn't realize how right I was. Nova had 6 turnovers, just like Montana did 3 months ago.

If there was any doubt as to whether she was savvy enough, tough enough or smart enough to carry the mantle of Vice President, she put those fears to rest tonight. She took on Barack Obama DIRECTLY on every issue and exposed... She did it with warmth and humor, and came across as the every-person....it's becoming mroe and more clear that she was a genius pick for McCain."

Congrats to the Eagles! I was wondering when was the last time the two teams from the previous National Championship game both lost on the same field.

I'd bet it was Marshall. I know what you're going for though.

I was going to say 2004. Both Colgate and UD played at UMass. But I looked it up and UD won.

I'm late back to the thread, but congrats EWU. I didn't think you could do it. Way to prove me wrong (again).

I'll be pulling for you in Frisco.

On to the next game... Go GSU Eagles!!!

I don't think Marshall lost a home game in 1996 either now that I think about it. It was the first time that the two teams in the NC game were undefeated going in.

My next guess is Georgia Southern.

I just looked it up; it's a lot more recent.

2008 - Both Delaware & App State lost @ James Madison.

I was thinking about that NC game but I just thought I don't need to look that up. I should've remembered App losing that one cuz it's the weekend that Appaholic was here in Missoula and I remember him checking on that one while we were at the tailgates and letting me know they lost.

Good work.

For entertainment I went over to Bisonville to read the game thread. It didn't disappoint. I highly recommend it. :thumb:

Bitter, delusional fans over there. I really think most of them believe Nova would lose by 50 to their "vaunted" defense. They seem to forget that their stellar D got torched for 200 yards rushing in the first half vs EWU. :ohno:

I know. I went over there just out of curiosity. With the exception of a few seemingly rational folks, everyone is blaming the refs again. I'm ok with NDSU and all but I think a few of those folks need to get a little better grasp on reality. :nod:

Classic game. This game combined with other games in the playoff series have to count in the overall legend of College Football. Right now the focus of all college fans is on EWU. They have hosted a classical series of games. Its too bad the title game can't be played at "The Roo" (is that proper form?)

No smack intended, but I have to bring this up. Does everyone really think Nova's line was in a league of their own? Not saying they aren't good, but some of you on here would have had is believe that they were an NFL line. I thought no one was going to be able to get by #71, but I sure did see Renard Williams wreaking all kinds of havoc on that Nova O-Line and a lot of tackles in the backfield. What gives?

For a "finesse" team that plays in the Big Fluffy conference, I sure as hell saw some hard-hitting smash mouth football out there tonight. I think it's time some of you admit that you under-estimated our defense. We weren't ranked #1 for no reason, and our defense was the main reason we're playing for a National Championship.

NOVA was down. NDSU kicked your ass better than NOVA.

At NDSU we underestimated the officiating. :nod:
