3 straight national titles for ndsuers was plenty. Time for another program.
I sure wish I owned a Baskin Robins in Fargo. Think of the depression eating which is about to occur.

I always hoped Montana would be the ones to take down the bison.
Congrats JMU
Bison tears taste so f'n good

No one in the FBS even knows who NDSU is right now. Well maybe a couple teams in the B10 but only for one week a year.Dmontanagrizzlies said:

Fun game to watch. Very well coached teams. Almost every punt was caught. JM qb is very good, he could see wide open receivers and get the ball to them. He could move around and avoid pass rushers, he could throw on the run. NDST qb looked awful when the pressure was on. JM offensive play calling was excellent, good short passing game, very good running game. Extra points were made, field goals were made or near misses. Both defenses were excellent. I hope our coaches watched and took notes. We have a long long way to go to be good.

)There were a couple streaks ended last night. IMO, it will make them better. Now there isn't a championship streak or a home playoff win streak. It will also make them hungrier, I felt there was some complacency creeping in. They'll be in the mix again next year.
Poor Frisco businesses are gonna take a hit this year. EWU can't get fans in the stands for a home game, how and the hell could they be expected to get to Frisco?

Playing not to lose cost them this game. The pressure of keeping the streak alive certainly was in the coaches mind. As a fan, it was getting to the point that you couldn't just watch the game and enjoy watching a good football team compete. Tough wins all of a sudden weren't good enough.
All in all, a team finally caught NDSU when they were not fully healthy and as sharpe as prior years and beat them. It was going to happen. They beat them the way NDSU beat other teams. Physicality and running the football. Absolutely tip my hat off to JMU.
NDSU returns and extremely talented team next year. They are going to be a very difficult team to beat.
The ndsuers were in a pressure cooker, all right.
No wait. I'm sorry. I was getting the team confused with the fans' dreams.

The healthy thing is sorta tough to even bring into the equation because JMU was banged up too. My opinion is that for 2016, somebody just flat out figured out how to be a better team than NDSU. JMU beats NDSU this year 9 times out of 10 on a neutral field.

Health and sharpness had far less to do with it than the fact that JMU was just a considerably better team on both sides of the ball. The difference between Wentz and Stick is major. But it's ridiculous for Griz fans to gloat after what NDSU has done and UM hasn't, and, yes, you have to expect NDSU to be better than the Griz next season too. However, it is totally understandable that FCS fans everywhere take satisfaction in the end of the run. Gives hope to everyone in FCS - (which my brother and millions of others don't watch on the grounds they don't care about minor league football.) :lol:
