Big Sky is still the best league in the FCS

Post by Pwns »

South Dakota State getting steamrolled by Eastern Washington. I know Northern Arizona and the Griz didn't impress but at least Montana outscored Coastal 21-7 in the second half and made is respectable.

Yup :nod: what'd VA have like 5 TD passes? Leads the FCS more TD passes than the EIU qb? :coffee:

I never thought I'd see the day when SH and BF agreed on something. :lol:

BPVA is tied with EIU's QB on TD passes. I think both are currently 3rd all-time in the FCS single-season record books.

Numbers never lie.

Quarterfinalists: OVC 2, Big Sky 1. Not bad for a conference that was 0-56 coming into these playoffs. So much for Montana being "ranked higher" than EIU. A southern team comes in and beats them at home in the freezing cold. :rofl:

Montana shit the bed in the first half and coastal out coached them no doubt. With bohl gone u might have a chance but probably not. I think UM had the better chance vs ndsu. But we'll see what Coastal is really made of next week. Or was it a fluke? :coffee:

Looking forward to CC coming to Fargo on Saturday.

Looks like they have a balanced offense that can score some points. Their defense looks mediocre and the Bison offense should be able to exploit that. CC needs to turn it into a track meet to win.

Bison will win this game. Montana was a 'paper tiger', NDSU is not.

Not a Bison but....

Lets see

Montana 31 USD 27
Henderson had to return a kickoff in the last minute in a half to win
Total yards Montana 389 USD 458


North Dakota State 42 USD 0
Total Yards NDSU 553 USD 214
Starters basically played three quarters

The Griz probably would have lost 50+ to 0.

Well the bison lost their coach to Wyoming.
Wyoming lost to Utah State
Utah state beat Weber State
Montana beat Weber State


That's why they play the game :dunce:

Big Sky was a Big Flop this year. What a dumb thread to start.

Soft and fluffy this year boys. The results speak for themselves.

The selection process is a joke.

The Big Sky is EWU and then the rest. If EWU and NDSU make it to Frisco, it will be a great game.

You could say the CAA had a fortunate draw and I would agree with you. But, you can't say they are a flop like the Big Sky. They have won every game in the playoffs except when UNH beat Maine and UNH is a CAA member. We will see about your prediction. My hunch is both UNH and Towson have good chances of prevailing. If they do, they will have proven the CAA was the strongest conference once again.

Last time I checked you were a Nova fan, not a CAA one. Why do you put so much stock in how the more successful teams in your conference do?

I feel your pain. It's been 10 years since the Hens NC and even longer for the Griz's. Have to catch a ride on somebody's back.
