Right. MSU is afraid to schedule MVFC teams. Which is why they had a home and home scheduled with a program that's actually been successful in the MVFC.
Would MSU have beaten UND this year? Undoubtedly. Have they had any problems in recent history beating any MVFC team that they've played with the exception of NDSU and SDSU? No.
MSU has obviously struggled against the DSU's. I think we both know they would have beaten SDSU in a rematch this year. The year they lost to NDSU at home and UM beat NDSU at home, the margins in those games were fairly negligible. You've indicated that a blocked FG is flukey, and wouldn't happen in normal situations, so I'm sure you would agree that when it happened against MSU it's the same, right? I mean, you would want to be consistent. If a couple fluke plays didn't happen, MSU wins that game against NDSU, right? Just trying to be like you, Jack! But yes, MSU has struggled to beat two of the top teams in the nations when they've played.
Perhaps the more relevant question for you, is why can't UM beat MSU? Is it 8 out of the last 10 that MSU has won? That's pretty bad...
