I'm expecting an outcome of less than 10 points for sure. SDSU is always tough, especially in Brookings.

I would love to watch that game against Cal poly thats for sure. Any chance of that?

I have no idea where to find it but I'd love to see it though! The closest I've gotten is watching the Bohl show from Sunday morning. That showed alot but there's still a ton of stuff, especially from the 4th quarter, that I'd love to see.

Ouch. Bison are getting rocked hard with a quarter and a half left.

Scratch that. I should know by now not to doubt them.

[amicheze]

Weak. Walker was having such a good season too.

[kylush]

[amicheze]

29-24 Sd

[kylush]

Yeah, me too:rolleyes: What a dissapointment to go 10-1. You know you've gained respect when even after a loss, you still finish the regular season ranked #1 in the country (ahead of unbeatens Northern Iowa and Montana)...

SDSU was a tough team. Especially in the weather....20s/30s and windy. It was a fun game to watch. Too bad Steve Walker couldn't pull one last rabbit from his hat. He was too good to end his career on an INT. Oh well, next year the fun really begins. I can't wait!

blah blah blah blah blah....

untwist the g-string....

I was never a Bison fan to begin the season... Jumped on the bandwagon for a couple games and now that they lost a game I can quit caring again.

Actually, neither really count this year for NDSU since they can't make the playoffs anyway. I think I'd rather have the coaches tell me who they think is the best team than some mathematical formula.

Well n00b, I am pretty sure the other poll is a media poll. If the coaches actually had enough time to research other teams then it would be taking away from time spent on preparing for the next game. I would believe the media would anlalyze alot more than some coach who voted NDSU #1 but SDSU not in the top 25. Geez that makes sense.....and also the polls actually do count, even if ndsu goes to the playoffs or not.
