Game is still more than a month away. Scheduled for Nov 11 in The Fabulous Fargo Dome, it is shaping up to be one of the 2 or 3 biggest games in the MVFC this season. Just for fun, I have set up the Game Analyzer Mechanism and plan to track the expected results after each weeks games.
Right now the teams look equally matched with strong defenses. The Yotes have a more balanced attack but averaging 435 yds/game rushing the Bison don't really have time to pass much. TOP is also an interesting statistic.
Here is this weeks line on The Big Game in Fargo:
Projected winner: NDSU Bison
Spread: Bison -5
Over/under: 79
Typical score: NDSU 42 USD 37
Shows a high scoring affair. Could be interesting with 2 explosive offenses and 2 stingy defenses.
Since the results will change with each teams games there is still a long way to go before it is showing the probable results but, if they were to play today and each team fullfilled its statistical expectations we would see something similar to this weeks line.

This is dumb. We've won some games and looked good doing it but there's a lot of football between now and the bison.

Well since apparently you think that you guys have a bunch of cupcakes before then let's just hope your players feel the same way cause I'm sure going to macomb for homecoming and hosting YSU and going to IlST will just be all super easy games. |

Hate to dash your hopes, but Coach Nielson and players are laser-focused on WIU Leathernecks! I see you guys are playing some good football, also.

Not sure how difficult it is to pull this together, but I'd more interested in seeing this same projection for all the games remaining on the schedule and seeing them updated each week (vs. just that one game). Is that possible? |

North Dakota, NDSU, SDSU, those are our rival games and have been for 100 years. So the fans get a little juiced up and want to talk about those games far in advance. That's fine, we're fans not players. I doubt the coaches and players are overlooking any opponent.

Not sure how difficult it is to pull this together, but I'd more interested in seeing this same projection for all the games remaining on the schedule and seeing them updated each week (vs. just that one game). Is that possible? Yes, Ill have the Leatherneck game up after this saturday and WIU has their game completed. Im also setting up Und @ Montana St. I'll post it here for you. I'm curious about UND to see, after their whalloping in Vermillion, if they are a flash in the pan or a real contender. Next week will help a lot with that answer. If they collapse it's fair to say the Coyotes knocked the stuffing out of them. I thought since it was a bye week it would be a good time to start this projection. I know its early but right now USD @ NDSU is one of the biggest FCS games in the country. It was a battle last year. Certainly I don't want to take the fans focus away from the Leathernecks. The other big game is of course SDSU/USD. Its a big two weeks at the end of the season. I follow MVCF and have since the NCC days. Im not a Bison supporter but I am a Bison fan the same way I am a fan of SDSU and USD. These 3 schools are and have been rivals since the 1800's. |

I'm working on the full slate of USD games and posted the WIU projection in that thread. The results haven't been update to reflect WIUs game at Coastal Saturday. They looked good. The game is still up on ESPN 3 if you want a look at the Leathernecks. Hope to have the others up by Sat. Will be in Co. most of week.
The UND collapse continues. The shellacking they suffered in Vermillion has knocked the stuffing out of an over hyped team
NDSU rolled. Lance Dunn had 112 yds with 3 carries, 3 TDs and a reception for a TD. They are a loaded football team. Saturday's game didn't show anything. Robert Morris was overmatched. NDSU now has scored 168 points going into 4th game. We learned The Bison are good down to the third string players. The statistics were overwhelming. That game is still up on ESPN 3 too.

THE OTHER BIG GAME
SDSU @ USD
IF the game were played today:
Projected winner: USD
Spread: USD -5
Over/Under: 63
Typical Score: USD 34 SDSU 29
I did not give any points for home advantage. SDSU has the road experience you need to be successful on the road.
Both teams have overwhelmed their opponents on both sides of the ball. Close examination shows The Coyotes a little stronger on offense and a little stingier on defense.
Big rivalry game. Today I'm taking USD to win and cover. I'll also take the under believing the defenses will keep a lid on things. Update next week.

Appreciate the enthusiasm for Coyote football and for a new member to the board, but can we please reserve these posts for the week in which we're actually playing the game?
