    Just how good is NDSU?

    Enough of the small time thinking Lakes.... Big12 or bust!!* *those of you who have missed out on mine and lakes discussion of this on bisonville need to know that he and I often disagree on when to move up to FBS. I know that we wouldn't get an invite to the Big 12 without going through MWC...

    Just how good is NDSU?

    Superbowl is inaccurate. Happy we won against the "big boys"? Sure. But I don't ever travel to FBS games but I do travel to Frisco for Championship Games. Admittedly we will likely talk about beating you guys until we play Montana (Our next big OOC game this year). Weber St & Incarnate Word...

    Just how good is NDSU?

    scottsdaleping you are about as sore of a winner as I've come across on the internet. While some of what you say is factually accurate (with regard to nerves... and even the players walking off the field w/o shaking hands) but the rest is the blah blah blah "I told you so" attitude that...

    NDSU-Texas shirts

    As bostrem00 pointed out the FCS national championship game is played in Frisco, TX. NDSU typically has traveled around 15000 fans (or more) to these games the past 3 years which is why you may have also seen shirts that say "We Roam Like It's Home" The cities of Frisco & Plano have absolutely...

    Just how good is NDSU?

    This team isn't as good (yet) as last years team was at this point of the season, they are pretty close to our 2012 team though. I hear the "superbowl" reference a lot, really it wasn't though. If it were the team would have had a fall off after the KSU game. Don't get me wrong, it's a HUGE...

    Just how good is NDSU?

    First, I know that you aren't impressed with NDSU or maybe it's that you're more upset with ISU losing to another FCS. I get that. I really do. But let's say NDSU continues to improve and makes another run at the FCS National Championship. If that happens does your opinion of NDSU change...

    Just how good is NDSU?

    What? Yes, we have ND kids from western ND (other side of the state from Fargo) but the vast majority of the ND kids on the team (if not all) grew up in ND.

    Your Reaction Sucks!

    Is it possible that NDSU is just the rare FCS team that is better than the division they play in.... and in all honesty UNI was the biggest challenge NDSU faced last year, including K-State. With K-State I felt we gave up a few big plays but physically outplayed their entire squad (something...

    Your Reaction Sucks!

    You're really trying to bait me into being a homer fan, aren't you? Drawing comparisons to UNI and TCU is fine and dandy. We were flat out called out by UNI when we moved up to D1AA (FCS) and told we'd never be able to carry our D2 successes to the next level. We'd never be the king of the...

    Your Reaction Sucks!

    I live in West Fargo. And yeah, I've seen plenty of B1G games and you're right about the announcers. I agree with your last paragraph as well. I truly think NDSU could play regularly in the C-USA or MAC and be successful with our current (and recent) teams. My ego (warning tjamz is going to...

    Your Reaction Sucks!

    Calling BS on the bolded. Well, partial BS at least. We were pretty equal out there honestly, but the final drive was the difference. NDSU was better conditioned (their guys were going out with cramping issues) and better disciplined. As a Bison fan I knew that once we converted our first...

    Your Reaction Sucks!

    While this is true, think about Kansas State last year. Arguably one of the best coaches in college football ever, a guy that they dedicated a statue to in front of their stadium before the game..... yeah, same thing happened to them too. I hope I don't sound cocky when I say that (I didn't...

    Not even close. Maybe total points.

    ***Official NDSU @ ISU Prediction thread***

    Just to preface my prediction: I know I am new here and I know that I am an NDSU fan, like every other fan I know my team better than I know your team so what I'm about to post is based on my knowledge of the returning players from NDSU and not as much about what I know about your team (though...
