How Far Will The ICON Of White College Football (NDSU) Fall?

They've been exposed. Though they (barely) beat UNI, they lost at home to a team UNI defeated. I'm thinking they end up at 8 to 10 in the new polls. UNI will outbid them for homers in the playoffs and, should they end up at the UNIDome for a quarterfinal or semifinal game, they will decidedly lose. So much for The Dream.....

Discuss.

I feel bad for the Prairie Poopers, but then I don't. Where are all their Kool-Aid drinkers now?

How pissed are Bizon fans going to be if UNI wins next weekend, and gets a claim of the MVFC title?

That game ain't no guarantee for UNI. I was at the last game in Normal and they trick-fvcked us, changing their entire defense from anything that was on video. Hope the UNI coaches are ready for something similar. The Crimson Crows will be fighting for their playoff lives, the cocksuckers.

The loss will probably cost them a 1 or 2 seed. In other words, today's loss could be the difference between being at home in the semi's or on the road.

Prediction: If they don't lose beforehand, they will lose at UNI in the second round.

Actually, facing the all-time chokers would be best case scenario for them.

I'll admit I don't know the rules on this - but how exactly, assuming they both win next weekend, will UNI have ANY claim on the MVFC title - given that they lost to the Bison?

I'm not being accusatory or defensive - I'm actually curious... that doesn't seem logical at all...

All you need to share a conference title is the same conference record, head to head only matters for the AQ.

Auto bid would go to NDSU, since they won the head-to-head match-up, but UNI would get a share of it since they would have the same in-conference record.

I have NDSU #11 on my ballot. Still have to win next weekend to claim a co-conference title, which would be the next thing to knock off the to-do list for the Bison.

We'll be fine. Definitely lose a top seed, but I can still see us a 4 or 5 with some home games.

YSU has a good team. Credit them for playing well with their playoff hopes on the line. If they can win next week they are deserving of a playoff spot.
