The 9/22 Scheduled "TBA" game

Pass the Kool-Aid! I love this prediction!

What level is NDSU? Are they FCS?

okay how tough is the schedule next year? ( If we were not in the big ten?) Wisconsin will be down, msu will be down. Michigan will probally come in as a even match or a 2 point favorite. Osu will definitely be favored next year. PSU is in shambles. Remember how we ripped on the big ten for being weak and now we call it tough? Also for you guys that say spell check. I graduated 419 out of 436 in my highschool class. So yes I rode the little bus. I flunked 7th grade. ( Blessed sacrament nuns/ them bitches) The 90s are not coming back. So we might as well get on the big ten ( we play for the roseses band wagon) and accept it or go for broke and go for the national titles and hope to be there at the end of the race is all. Geuss my 20s spoiled me. hell my teens did also. I think nebraska lost what 3 national tilte games in the 80s?

You crack me up (damn nuns) and wanted to give you an encouraging reply. For being a rock in high school you put together a thought provoking post and make some good points. Forget the spell checking, keep slinging the words. Post is not a friggin term paper.

I don't think it is necessary to schedule a difficult non-conference schedule in this new world of parity. Few teams go undefeated. If we are undefeated and go through the big ten unscathed, it should be enough to end up in the NC/playoff. Look at the final standings this year. 3 B1G teams in top 15. Although they aren't considered "elite", beating them would get us there. Funny how our perception of the big ten changed.

There does seem to be a problem in our new conference. I remember Bielama saying that he didn't think they were NC contenders early in the season. Sheesh talk about self fulfilling prophesy. We can help break the B1G out of this Rose Bowl malaise and develop some swagger. Let's stop thinking that there are "elite" teams. Parity is a 2 way street. Our 3 and 4 star recruits can beat the 4 and 5 star recruits of other teams. Rather than be dissapointed in a bowl game at the end of season let's start scheduling them early before hitting the grind of the B1G. If that is what it will take then let's go for it. Maybe not in '12 .... but after getting better acclimated (but not yet assimilated) to our new conference in '13. Let's not settle to be a middle of the pack team hoping to make the rose bowl. Rose bowl this year and NC the next. BELIEVE. GBR!!

Getting woozy on my soap box... need more kool-aid. :waste :koolaid2:

Idaho State is a D2 team who went 2-9 last year playing against the 125th-rated SOS. They lost 64-21 against Washington State last year in their only game against D1 opposition.

EDIT - my bad. Missed BYU on their schedule last year. They lost 56-3.

They're FCS aka I-AA

D2 would be like Chadron State and UNK

 
So... the 2014 FAU game is going to be fun. Bo vs. Carl - the Battle of the Pelinis. Carl will have had a couple of recruiting classes to get "his guys" in there, and we'll see what kind of fight they put up.

I also wonder if Carl is going to keep up the traditional first-game bonfire:
