South Dakota state at Montana

Make sure they don't plow the pass this week. They had to delay the game yesterday because of snow travel troubles. Lost to a 5 win team.
 
SDSU beats Kansas and NDSU but loses to Western Illinois. Sounds eerily familiar...
Looks like we caught em in a down year tho...
First time the 'Jacks haven't had a nine win season since...1979. Holy Stitt!
 
I don't follow SDSU, but given history, I would think that team comes into Missoula with a very business-like attitude. I hope Stitt gets the boys ready to play.
I actually like the draw. We get a chance to prove that NDSU wasn't a fluke, a rematch agasint PSU (and if we get that far, I can drive to the game! :-)

Go Griz!

Every time I watch that game (and I have an NCAA dvd of it right next to the App State Game) I think of three things. Damn that was a great Griz team. Selle was possibly the most under appreciated Griz QB of the era. And what would things have been like if Selle and Severan Campbell hadn't got serious injuries?

SDSU didn't beat NDSU. USD did.

Right you are. My bad. And let's not forget they CRUSHED SUU 55-10 or something. Ugh.

So will Carson Wentz play in the playoffs?

Not likely, only if they go deep into the playoffs. Only 4 weeks in to a 4-8 week injury.

Injury was 5 weeks ago. First game would be 7 weeks. I'll be surprised if he doesn't start.

Ummmmm, no. Not even close. In 2011, they were 5-6. Actually, in 2010 they were also 5-6. And in 2008 they were 7-5.
 
Good luck and winning these two first games will help the BSC next year. You are in, and the season starts now. Represent well.

Having a pissed off Crittenden back on defense will be huge in shoring up the run game. SDSU can run it (Mo Valley, what do you expect?), so his return might just be huge. Biggest issue on defense right now. Having a healthy defense is going to be huge...

USD is the big run team. SDSU hangs its hat on D. 16.7 points and 365 yards a game allowed in that tough conference; 55-10 win over SUU.

It seemed unlikely but was reported by CBS sports in the recap of SDSU vs West Illinois:


"The Jacks were denied a nine-win season for the first time since 1979. More importantly, the loss may have cost the team a high seed in the FCS playoffs and a first-round bye."

Their rushing average is 143, and 3.8. Passing average is 275. Have thrown 9 interceptions. Average 30 per game, and give up only 17. Must have a tough D. Have a 750 yard rusher who averages almost 6. Have played 2 QB's with the same 147 QB rating, and just about 60% completion rates. Have had 19 sacks and given up 27. They look beatable, based on skimming their record and stats.

I wonder what a scouting report from SUU looks like....

Interesting over on bisonville they are stating that it is already going to be a conference game that they are going to play in their first game.

From what read on the live selection blog, they are expecting rematch with Montana.
Click to expand...
Why wouldn't they?
Montana 38; NDSU 35
SDSU 7; NDSU 28
Both on the road.

They really screwed up their translation of whatever the stat research guy gave them.

SDSU had three 9 win seasons in a row going into this year. That string of 9 win season were the first 9 win seasons they've had since 1979.
