8. August 30[SUP]th[/SUP] North Dakota State at Iowa State: Oh man. Did we not learn anything from Kansas State last season? The Bison are the defending Championship Subdivision champions and are used to pulling upsets. The good news for the Cyclones is that NDSU quarterback Brock Jensen has moved on to the NFL.

Under 50 days! Serious question. Ndsu alumni is having their Friday night pre party in Des Moines because there was nothing in ames to hold 2000-3000. Why wouldn't ames not want the business or at least accommodate? There's good money not being spent in ames that night. Weird.

I'm pretty sure that's not the problem. It should probably read: "Because NDSU waited too long to book a place and everything is full" or "NDSU can't afford the more expensive options to hold that many people" or "NDSU didn't want to hold a party inside an Iowa State building (ie Memorial Union or Scheman, both of which hold 2500+ people)"

And lets be honest, there won't be 2000-3000 NDSU fans at an Alumni party in Des Moines on the Friday before the game.

Keep the sparkling grape juice to a minimum.

http://kvly.images.worldnow.com/images/20509300_BG1.jpg only 12,000 at this one. It's ok, Des Moines needs the money more than ames. We might not even spend a dime in ames since games at 11, leave at 3pm after ndsu win be in the lakes by 8pm. Perfect.

Most of you people have overnight accommodations in Ames. You get to celebrating too hardy pre-game and bunch of ya will miss the kick-off. You might want to avoid detection on I-35 by taking Hwy 69 back to Ames. Huxley is a real friendly town.

 

[CyArob]

Wait. They're having a pre party? That's so D2.

both locations don't need your money, I mean it's not like both Ames and Des Moines win awards year after year for being great cities.

Ok, I'll bite. What, where, and when was this fantastic NDSU event?

They are undefeated against the FBS since 2010, don't cha know?

Who was the last FBS team they lost to?

:biggrin:

 

[BryceC]

we are wearing Green, NDSU marketing people are on crack wanting yellow.

If you want to scout NDSU they are replaying FCS Championships again on July 5th at 8 pm on ESPNU!

our 2nd time this week on ESPNU.

How could that possibly help us "scout"? 90% of the starters are gone off that team and the coach.

 

[lakesbison]

Not 90% 7 defense 4 offense starters back. That pic was of national championship party. We've beaten 7 FBS teams so this is hardly a super bowl in fact most bison fans are bored with beating fbs teams
