The excuses are hand made and ready for this season. "We play in the toughest conference in FCS", ""The new coaches have their heads up their asses and don't know what Bison Football is all about", "We need to get rid of this Astro turf because it is causing to many injuries to key players at critical times in the season", "Montana is afraid to schedule us".

Re: Official 2009 NDSU Irrelevancy Thread
That's true and we shouldn't be picking on the good guys just because we have left over smack feelings toward some of the NDSU fans that have a much lower development when it comes to effective communication. I offer my apologies TTBF and the other good Bison fans. I should direct my smack at those that have earned it. We're all just FN around.TwinTownBisonFan wrote:last year we had it coming for all of the bombast only to miss the playoffs... that's fair... but now it just seems excessive.Appaholic wrote:

TTBF- no biggie, but the Bison fans were pretty salty a couple of years ago when there was no chance that they'd have to back up their smack. I think last year they got a taste of the weekly grind that is the MVC. Hell they even managed to back into a win against SIU, something UNI couldn't do.

Re: Official 2009 NDSU Irrelevancy Thread
No really it's because they are too stupid to play gangstas, thugs, drunks, and dopers who don't feel they need to follow any team rules. To hell with student/athletes, you can't win the big time with people like that, not to mention they don't get to do the pretty girls, become NFL heroes, and rap stars.

Re: Official 2009 NDSU Irrelevancy Thread
The 2007 Bison were possibly the best team in Bison history with one of the best QB's in Bison history. Beating a Bowl team/FBS conference Champion, and Big Ten Minnesota was fun. I've been watching Bison football through 7 of the 8 championships, and the enthusiasm was rampant and so was the smack, and it wasn't all good. The MVC grind was expected by most long-time Bison fans, and so was a down season after losing Walker to graduation. A similar analogy would be the 2008 Packers dropping off from the 2007 season after losing Brett Favre.houndawg wrote:TTBF- no biggie, but the Bison fans were pretty salty a couple of years ago when there was no chance that they'd have to back up their smack.

Re: Official 2009 NDSU Irrelevancy Thread
Question: Did the absurdly long transition period from DII to FCS hurt NDSU recruiting and cause the slump they had in 2008 and 2009?
