I do, that's where the field in SD part comes in.

Just the fact that they've been thrown on 170 more times (granted they have played 1 more game) shows me that teams aren't as afraid to throw against them though. Also noting they didn't play Ill State this year who is one of, if not the most pass happy teams in the Valley.

Or it could mean that teams have a harder time running on them.... :coffee:

I forgot the part where being a true fan meant you had to unequivocally believe that your team was better across the board at every single thing. That's like saying NDSU has better RBs than Stony Brook (they don't and you and everyone who follows FCS football knows this) or better WRs than EWU (they don't and you know it). It's called being realistic. If you don't like it, that's a "you" problem.
What's the hangup, then? You're a homer, I'm not. It's that simple. It's also why I will never join the boards at Bisonville. Fans of other teams will be much fairer when critiquing the Bison. I like seeing NDSU win as much as the next guy, I simply refuse to give them credit when it is not warranted. I have found that Mvemjsunpx knows his stuff...and I believe he's right again.

Hey, Mvemjsunpx- just so this is clear to you, make sure that in the next NDSU game you preview, you make sure that the Bison have the advantage at every position group. Even if they play Alabama. :roll:

Exactly.

He is another Bison fan that has a lot of enthusiasm for 'our' team. Why post something like that?

So you think he is a homer....well every fan is a homer for their 'own' team. Everyone on here is a 'homer' for their own team.

Get a clue.

NDSU might have a better defensive backfield compared to SDSU. They give up almost 60 yards less per game compared to the Jacks.

So, if a Bison fan doesn't think the team is total horsesh** in all categories and is just squeaking by teams because of luck then they are homers in your eyes.

Well, you know what, IMO, the Bison will win this game by 2 TDs. I don't think the Bison will have the turnovers like last game and the defense will hold them just like the first game. BTW, the Jacks only had 120 total yards until their last drive.........like I said, I'll go with the Bison in this one.

Are you this retarded in real life too?

It's like you're on a mission to make up for everything any bison fan has ever done. All I did was say our Dbacks are better than SDSU's. It may be debatable, but I'm certainly not outright wrong.

Every fan is a homer, do you read any other threads on here? Get a clue :dunce:

You don't have to think the team is garbage. Just be reasonable. I don't think our secondary is elite. That's all. It's good, not great. It would look much, much worse without the defensive line.

No, they aren't.
"It's like you're on a mission..." BINGO. My goal was simple from the moment I signed on here- do not be lakes or JBB. I joined up to learn about other FCS teams, primarily. Hearing about the Bison is the gravy.
It's really that simple. By counter-acting some of NDSU fandom's more homeristic posting, I achieve this end. Clearly this means I'm a retarded dunce of a troll. If being that means I'm not lakes or a homer, I can live with that. Since I don't know you, your insults mean as much to me as anything else posted on the internet....not a damn thing. I prefer my fanhood with a heavy dose of perspective, realism, and insight. Others would simply rather wear their team's colored glasses. That's fine, but it's not my cup of tea and I will call it out if it makes me look like an idiot by association.

I'm being reasonable. Who said our d-backfield was elite? They are pretty darn good considering Heagle has been gone most of the year along with Shepard.....2 starters...Shepard started as the nickle back.

In fact, IMO, the LB corp has been the most consistent part of the defense all year.

But they are a TEAM. That is what makes this defense so good right now. Only 1 starter will be lost off of this year's defense.

I don't really give a damn what your cup of tea is. If I want to post my opinion that the NDSU secondary is better than SDSU's I'll do it without snide little comments from you.

You're more anti-bison fans than SE, and that's saying something.

Mvemjsunpx wrote:Two very similar teams square off for the second time in 4 weeks in the Fargo Dome. The Bison are better in most every stat, but they aren't better by much & the Jackrabbits seem to be peaking at the right time. NDSU's defensive task is a little bit easier than SDSU's, though, since shutting down Zach Zenner pretty much shuts down the Jackrabbit offense. I think they'll be able to do that just like they did on November 10th., and that will result in another close, low-scoring win.

Here's my assessment of the matchups & my pick for the game:


      • Quarterbacks -- North Dakota St.

        Running Backs - South Dakota St.

        Receivers/TEs - (push)

        Offensive Line - North Dakota St.


        Defensive Line - North Dakota St.

        Linebackers --- North Dakota St.

        Secondary ---- South Dakota St.


        Kicking ------ South Dakota St.

        Punting ------ North Dakota St.

        Return Teams - North Dakota St.

        Kickoffs ------ (push)





        • South Dakota St. 13-20 North Dakota St.
beating eastern illinois and usd is peaking? haha. also we probably have the best secondary in fcs

Better root for Ga Southern then. Those words may look foolish against the best passing team in FCS.
