View Full Version : Marker 2017: NDSU @ SDSU

November 3rd, 2017, 09:33 PM
The Fargodome installed new video board last year. In case you didn't know, NDSU has fewer road losses than home losses over the past few years. SDSU has to be excited to play in front of a full house, assuming the local businesses are able to give away their tickets.
He was talking about how there’s only cameras on one side because the cows play in a shopping mall.

This could only be a real football game if there is an inch or more of fresh snow on the field before kickoff. Bring November in with a lion! Sadly it will all melt before the SDSU cheerleaders arrive to build a Guinness record snowman pyramid in the south end zone. Alas, Stig will need to find a new trick play to hide his 12th man defensive goalie/safety specialist. Without this trick tactic, the once locked-in 3 safety performance may be in doubt and stopping the pigskin may be comparable to catching lightning in a bottle.

Christ, I even used a quote from Seinfeld to soften the blow so these PC snowflakes wouldn't have a cow.
I honestly didn't know that was a quote from Seinfeld. I just turned 30, so it definitely isn't in my wheel house. If you start quoting The Office, then we're in business. Sorry for calling you sort of a bigot. I was too quick to judge. I'm sure you're a great guy.

Seinfeld and The Office have pretty similar styles of humor, as both use a lot of situational comedy and observational humor, plus utilized the straight man/crazy man dynamite really well. I think if a person likes one, they'll likely appreciate the other (though with the generational gap one will likely be more relatable to a person based on age).
I happened to fall between Seinfeld and The Office eras (the former concluded when I got into high school; the latter started when I wasn't really watching network TV anymore), but I thoroughly enjoyed reruns of both shows.

We know the game sold out quickly and I’d like to see how many of those surplus tickets ended up in the hands of our fans. I’m guess somewhere around 1k for NDSU, but just a guess.

You would think shutting down single game sales would be for all home games for them. Since they want to say thank you to their generous corporate donors, they should do it for every home game. Wonder if they will do it for their first game next year....xeyebrowx....xlolx

Still whining about this. I read McFeeley's column where he actually spoke to Sell. Something the cheerleaders at your beloved 1660 (employees of the athletic department) failed to do when they created such a furor. The best part of the article.
But there is also this: SDSU can do whatever it wants with its tickets. If Sell and the athletic department want to sell them, they can. If they want to give them away to Jackrabbits fans, they can. If they want to burn them in a pile, they can. SDSU is under no obligation to make tickets available to opposing fans.

Have you seen your "fans" interact with Bison fans? There is proof of your fans vandalizing Bison fans cars and personal belongings. Outside of Thumper, who is a true gentleman and friend, and the Wieneke's, who I have known since I was 12 or so, your "fanbase" is the one who needs to start acting like adults instead of destroying property when things don't go your way.

Lol. You are trying to defend using corporate dollars to buy up tickets that could have been sold legitimately? You could have had an honest sell out but it was decided to burn these corporate dollars through a ticket farce. Why not use those corporate dollars for scholarships, nutrition for your athletes, facilities, travel expense, etc. ? What kind of thinking is that?
Oh, but how dare Bison fans point this folly out. How childish. Lol.

The hate runs deep that the AD has to push corporations to buy out tickets that legitimate fans could've used. This is going to be funny when all of us point out the stadium looks 3/4 full and make fun of SDSU. Still these are SDSU's tickets to do whatever they want, but this whole move is lower than South Dakota trying to sell 3 packs to Bison fans.

Do you understand what a sellout is? That means you sold all the tickets before the event.
Do you know what attendance is? It's the number of people who purchased those tickets who show up.
So yes, this was a sellout and no, attendance will not be 19,400. Sales and attendance are two different things. Some people with tickets do not show. For example, me. Couldn't get out of town.

The difference is, SDSU is blatant and still getting to the QB. That is what is frustrating since if they called 3 or 4 in a row, it would change the dynamics of the game quickly and force SDSU into a game they do not want to be in.

I agree. Why did NDSU get away from the running game? That first drive was a thing of beauty, mixing it up. Perhaps SDSU has sold out to stop the run, but that hasn't ever seemed to stop the Bison power game before.

When the refs become biased towards one team, it is impossible to beat them. If they called the blatant holds on SDSU, you would still have the ball on the 1st drive of the game at your own endzone. That is not saying our secondary looks like hot garbage with the weak coverage being played. They need to step up or they will continue to be walked all over.

I can accept that. I don't think officials set out to change the outcome of the game. Aside from that, SDSU seems to want to play "our QB is better than your QB." That doesn't mean Stick won't come out and burn it up in the second half, but so far, Taryn has gotten the better of that.

If it were me as the defensive coach I play with 3 linemen, and occasionally blitz with an extra CB. If the refs are killing you, might as well try to win the game.
On offense run the ball more, with more misdirection on the throws. Try to find open receivers.

The good news is that USeD lost, so NDSU still controls its' own destiny. If there is a positive to be had out of all of this.
Amazing how having a bunch of turnovers can cause you to lose a game....

They are going to crowd the box. I would too if I were playing vs Stick.

Put your hands down idiots. Losing the game and sitting on the play.

Our special teams are not very special. Or they're special in the wrong sense of the word.

Stick? Why do you have to play like this?
Nice TD run though.

Defense needs to step up big time. Need another turnover!

Well SDSU you had this one about wrapped up and now you chocked and let them back in. Could come down to the last play.
