Bison vs Wildcats

BillingsMafia said:
The Bison are very well coached. Wildcats coach appears to be not so sharp. I think Bison dominate. What do others think?

I think the Bison curb stomp AZ.
 
I actually do think Arizona can win this game, and I hope they do as both NDSU and SDSU will each have a loss going into their meeting in mid-October. Arizona looked damn impressive in their 38-20 road win at San Diego State. I watched their game against Mississippi State on Saturday and they were tied at the end of the third quarter before it got away from them in the 4th. This will be a really good game that either team can win, but UA did a really nice job replenishing their program in the transfer portal and they can win this game. The one thing that's in UA's favor is the kickoff time. Kickoff is set for 9pm MT, 10pm CT, I'm not sure NDSU has ever played this late of a game before, and as we've seen with the Griz, it can be a drag and a bit of a slow start when you're sitting around all day waiting to play. We'll see what happens.

I agree with this. UA is much improved and will win a couple PAC12(10ish) games this year I imagine. I also think that they won't overlook the gravy boats because of their history. I would love a Wildcat win. Will be interesting to watch it.
 
Here's another one:

I don't care what level you play at, when ~half your starters are true freshmen you're going to get beat to hell.
 
NDSU will likely dominate the Wildcats, unfortunately. Does anyone know what their record is against FBS teams the past decade?
 
I have my eGriz posting rights on this game with some wannabe cowboy cat fan, betting that the Griz beat UDub by more then ndsu beats/loses to Ari. Most likely y’all won’t hear from me anymore after Saturday😂.
 
This is a much improved Arizona team. Night game, where they are underdogs at home. They will be pissed and should be. UA by 10+. If NDSU wins this one….we might as well give them the trophy now.

UA couldn't beat (5-6) NAU last year. A very big improvement will be required to beat NDSU.
 
UNDSU has beaten much better FBS teams than UA over the last decade. No reason to believe they won't do it again.

Watched a replay of that game against Mississippi State, and turnovers were largely the difference. Not just losing the ball, but where they lost it ... in most cases the loss killed a promising drive. I'm still picking the Bison, but think it will be very close. And, if Arizona can clean up the mistakes, they can win this game ... there's some talent there.
