Hope this works. Should have put this poll on the other thread. What’s your pick?

Think NDSU will win. Expecting a great game either way.

I expect ndsu by about 3 touchdowns. the bear cats are good until they run into the very best.

If things stay true to form, it will be close at halftime but in the second half Bison roll. I don't get what's with SHSU and their second halves.

Someone suggested on bisonville they play in a weak conference and are used to not playing 60 minutes.

NDSU will do the same thing they did to us. We went up to Fargo and first possession went right down the field. The Bison didn't panic they made a few adjustments and then effectively shut our O down. Oh, we moved the ball a bit but we weren't scoring. They'll do the same thing to SHSU. They'll have a little success, Bison will adjust then it will be game over.

On the other hand, this could be the best Sammy team yet.

I believe the bison will win however if SHSU gets up by a couple of TDs early it could be interesting with their potent O. Two other keys for them will be how well their D line plays the run and pressures the QB and how their FR CBs play. If the answer to these questions is average the bison roll.

I'm confident NDSU rolls.

Yes, I agree about the fast start. Thats what happened to the Yotes. First qtr 14-7 Sammy, 2nd qtr 27-7 Sammy. The Yotes went on to win the 3rd and 4th qtrs but still came up 12 short in that wild 54-42 matchup. They shut them out in the third quarter and had 520 yards passing too. How many teams can beat you when you have well over 600 yds in total offense? The fact Sammy came back in the 4th losing 14-13 is a little worrisome. They didn't really slow down much in the 2nd half. Same thing against Kennesaw State. They played the entire 60 minutes. They like to mix it up, bringing both physical and talented play. They stood in there against that option all 4 quarters.

The Bison have a defense, the Coyotes didn't. By that point in the season at least half of our defensive starters weren't on the field. Bison have more depth and just a better defense overall.

Just as a reminder the game is tonight at 7PM Central on ESPN 2.
These semi-final's should have one over-riding theme for all good Coyote Fans and that is to see the Jacks fail in their attempt to win the championship. The odds are better for that occurrence if the Bison take care of business and get to Texas themselves. Anything is possible if it is a Jacks vs Bison final but I really see the Bison having an advantage in that one. Revenge and experience to name a couple. One good thing about these last two games is that the Jacks will really be upping their competition level going from New Hampshire to James Madison. They will also likely be having to win back to back games against the two best teams in the country and the two most experienced teams when it comes to "been there, done that".
I will not be cheering for Sam Houston for one second in this game and I want the Bison to blow this thing wide open tonight. It is not that I wouldn't mind the Beat Cats winning it but we can't take the chance of a Jacks vs Bear Cats final. I will go with the Bison 52-17. I will give SHSU 3 more points than the Coyotes got up there.

65 yards off tackle for Bruce Anderson and boom it’s NDSU 14 SHSU 3 Yep and the doors on the blowout have been opened. The Bison just need to trample on some Cats for awhile and it will be a short night of suspense. Do the Bison fans get to renew their tickets down in Frisco like Jacks fans get to do at the Summit Tourney. Let's face it we are all just spectators of the FCS Bison Invitational which always features a fall and winter showing at a theater near you.
