Bisonville is not a great read. I went through their thread on this game and am now dumber for having read it. I'm sure there are smart/normal Bison fans out there, and I can understand why they would not want to be on that forum. I know I would leave this place if a loss meant the discussion turns to religion, homophobia, politics, and personal attacks. Their accepted narrative is delusional, then multiply that by cruelty to get an absolute cesspool. I'm glad USD could add a little more misery to their lives today. Oh, man. That's the best read I've had in a long time. Chicken little says the sky is falling. Fire the coaching staff and hire Josh Davis. Omg. It's nice to revel in it. Just for a day Someone suggested they should have fired their head coach after last season, a season that ended in the national championship game. Complete and utter delusion.

They've been so spoiled that anything less than a natty is unacceptable to the fan base. That is a really high bar. They think the only reason Entz won 2 of them is because of Klieman's players. Probably at least partially true.

I hope there is no hangover. The worst thing we could do is turn around and lose games we shouldn't. We unfortunately have a history of doing that I am not worried as much about that this week due to DDays, but YSU at home with a smaller crowd looms as a trap game.

The OL played fantastic and Davis really showed some creativity in the play calls in the 1st half. I was a little nervous after the 3 & out to start our 2nd half, but they responded well when they needed to get any points.

Great win for the Yotes! Saw the 1st half live (MidcoSports+), had to wait to watch 2nd half replay, yesterday evening.
That was a statement game, the Yotes have gone from little to no national attention, to a bona fide contender. Now the hard work of maintaining this edge from week to week. The path is there.....GO Yotes!
It would be great to pack the house for D-days and YSU, the team deserves it. Loved the quick response marketing for Howling Pack membership, it takes all of us!

We might be in the "other receiving votes" category in the polls next week. This is why preseason polls suck. Should be around Top 10. I have a feeling that NDSU will still be rated significantly higher than USD. We might sneak into the top 25. No poll yet today, but Sam Herder at Hero Sports has us #9, with NDSU #10 (he is a STATS voter). herosports.com/fcs-top-25-sam-herder-ballot-10-2-2023-bzbz/

Sagarin, Massey, Coaches and Stats poll all behind, not that it means doodlesquat in the big picture. Still have to finish the job as the season is far from over. I can't figure out the computers though. Both have us 3-1 with a tougher strength of schedule, but behind in Sagarin's case 49 spots. Artificial intelligence?

We won without Nick Gaes who injured his knee might not need him next week but hope he comes back after that

Ha! no, I think most computer polls/algorithms use the previous year's data early in the season, and gradually "grandfather" that data out. Not a perfect science. Stuff like the RPI doesn't do that, but they are also wildly inaccurate early in the season, and prone to overreaction. Human polls have their own bias, of course.
