Created a dedicated thread so that it is easier to find and go back and make fun of later. Here is my wild-ass-guess (moved from season-long thread): 1. NDSU 11-0 (8-0) 2. USD 7-4 (6-2) 3. UNI 7-4 (5-3) t4. SDSU 6-5 (4-4) t4. ISUr 6-5 (4-4) t4. YSU 6-5 (4-4) t7. SIU 5-6 (3-5) t7. MSU 5-6 (3-5) t7. WIU 4-7 (3-5) 10. ISUb 2-9 (0-8) So, that looks very homerish… I can't say I think the Yotes are the 2nd best team going in, but the road conference record sets up very well for them. I have them losing 2 of 3 of Weber/YSU/SDSU, though it is certainly easy to think they win 2 (or 3) of those. As has been noted before, the top team and bottom team are set, the middle 8 involve a lot of 'go with the home team'. Predicted Storylines: 1. MSU hunting for a playoff spot in November 2. The Rabbit's TC has either a Streveler-esque dominant year, or kind of bombs (no in-between), either way, fans call for him to be benched and Joose to be fired after starting the season 2-2. 3. Yotes place more D players on all-conference than O players Read more: usdcoyotesports.proboards.com/thread/2167/2018-season?page=20#ixzz5MOmjUaYx

Here’s my rankings (listed by MVFC record): 1. NDSU 11-0 (8-0) 2. Illinois state 9-2 (7-1) 3. South Dakota 8-3 (6-2) 4. SDSU 7-4 (5-3) 5. YSU 7-4 (5-3) 6. Northern Iowa 5-6 (3-5) 7. Missouri State 4-7 (2-6) 8. Southern Illinois 4-7 (2-6) 9. Western Illinois 1-10 (1-7) 10. Indiana state 2-9 (0-8) I printed the pdf from the MVFC website and picked every game. I have USD losing to KSU, NDSU, and YSU. Could see us losing in Brookings and flip flopping with SDSU...but could also see us winning in Youngstown or losing in Ogden.

I’m so conflicted on the Weber st game. Last year UND was supposed to be great out of the Big Sky and look how that turned out. But then Weber almost beat James Madison on the road last year. But they also lost a ton of seniors. We lost the best player in FCS, but return 5 starting Oline men, all 3 RB, 2 TE, and handful of WR on offense with a guy with playing time at QB. DLine is good. LB have some fresh faces, safety is strong, CB unproven. We could be anywhere from 3-1 to 1-3 come Dakota Day.

Im thinking we might very well lose 2 season games this year but wouldn't be surprised if it's less because Simmons is absolutely going to light it up just like every facet of our team is going to be better.
Two things I do know are;
1) NDSU has that machine built but we're on that same path and that time when we're going to man up and beat them is closer than everybody thinks.
2) Don't even be concerned with the bunnies this year... we've passed them this year. They're always going to be consistently competitive but never great because of their system. We're on the way to great and will smoke them this year!!! AND TAKE THAT TO THE BANK!!!
BOOM SHAKALAKA!!!

Another prediction: it will be pretty boring around here until we get CF back posting. Every protagonist needs their antagonist. COME BACK CF!

If it would make you feel better, gopheryote, I could just start giving contrarian responses to posts for no particular reason other than to start pointless arguments. Or I could constantly complain and wallow in the misery of being persecuted as the only "realistic" fan of a program that will never quite measure up to the Jacks. Or I could compose very long posts with no paragraphs that no one reads. Sorry, I'm such an @ss.

Wow - the power of CF! One small tongue-in-cheek comment gets more activity than anything else over a few days. More proof that we need him? BTW - I don't have any knowledge of creating a meme, but we could use a 'bring back CF' one around here to annoy folks (in good humor only, of course).

The board doesn’t need senseless speculation intended to cause false controversy and fill self-imposed message count quotas.
