geezer Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Any Missouri Valley, Big Sky or Colonial conference team would be great in my opinion for home and home games. They are among the upper tier of Conferences as far as the media and FCS ranking voters are concerned. But more importantly no more D-3 or NAIA schools just to get a home game and a probably easy win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geezer Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 FCS final four are set with a MVFC conference match up between North Dakota St and South Dakota St and a match between Big Sky co-champ Eastern Washington and Colonial Athletic Conference Champion Maine. On the one hand the more teams you get into the playoffs the better the chance of winning on the other hand the playoffs tend to prove the rankings correct as far as the strength of the conferences are.

Skinny1 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 I watched all the FCS Playoff games this past weekend and feel that Lamar at least would be in the game with any of those teams with the exception of NDSt. Lamar's speed would give these teams problems. That said, you can't give any of them 3 turnovers and miss 2 field goals. The key to having a good playoff team starts and finishes with the offensive line.

geezer Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 (edited) Just saw where Kansas State has hired North Dakota State's coach to replace Bill Snyder. I know that NDSU was successful before Klieman took over but it will remain to be seen if they are successful in replacing him. Also will be interesting to see how his team reacts for the rest of the playoff run. Edited December 11, 2018 by geezer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinny1 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 North Dakota State decided to fill it's vacated head coaching position from within by promoting DC & Assistant HC Matt Entz to the top job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KABrother88 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 North Dakota State decided to fill it's vacated head coaching position from within by promoting DC & Assistant HC Matt Entz to the top job. Worked well with their last HC hire in Klieman...if it ain’t broke don’t fix it I guess. Got curious and looked at their HC history and noticed something that’s pretty crazy. The last HC to have a losing record while at NDSU was Bob Danielson who coached there from 1957-1962. In the last 56 years they have went 516-137 for an average record of 9-2 and only 4 losing season...again over 56 years... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachacola Posted December 17, 2018 Author Share Posted December 17, 2018 I just noticed that Northern Iowa lost to UC Davis 23-16 after beating LU 16-13, who then lost to Eastern Washington by only 5 points. With LU's defense playing really well at the end of the season it's a shame the offense wasn't at the top if it's game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KABrother88 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 FCS Championship game is on ESPN2 right now with North Dakota State up 10-0 over Eastern Washington at the end of the 1st but EWU is driving deep in NDSU territory. Also looks to be the same officiating crew that worked Lamar and Northern Iowa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KABrother88 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 NDSU up 17-10 at half. EWU scored a TD on a fake FG from the 2 yard line with 30 seconds left in the half Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
