if ndsu played a full schedule we'd have 22 more full rides and be even better. Iowa Deputy AD Gene Taylor just said this on fargo radio. said with 22 rides, NDSU easily finishes 5-6th in overall big ten standings.
NDSU has beat 8 fbs teams and psst guess what, NDSU doesnt get bigger FBS games because they wont even schedule us (Wisconsin, Nebraska has refused to schedule us)
NDSU fans have lost all perspective and have become completely delusional. I was in MSP for the IA vs MN game in 2013 walking down Nicollete Mall after the game still wearing game gear. Some Bison yelled across the mall that they were "coming to Kinnick" and "beat Iowa down". Seriously? Beat down?Delusional.
I believe all or at least most of their FBS wins were in game 1 when everyone is more healthy than game 3. All those bumps and bruises you get form playing any opponent add up and are a bigger deal with less depth. It's made worse by 2 OT games vs Iowa's best playing 3/4 of each of the first 2 games. Unless the Hawks cough up the ball a bunch, this will not be a close game. Talent, depth, home game, and a senior winner QB will simply be too much. This is by far the best NDSU has faced in by far the most hostile stadium they have ever played and it's game 3.
NDSU would be so beat down by game 3 in the B1G, they'd be lucky to win another game.
