The equivalent SDSU game was on the road to Delaware, one of the top teams in the country. ... NDSU and SDSU both finished 4-4 in the conference. NDSU beat USD, and SDSU beat UND, which is a wash.The Bison, to their credit, beat Kansas, while the Jacks lost to a much tougher Nebraska team. So it goes.

        You know the bus has to go past Brookings on the way from Springfield Mo to Fargo so someone should hang a sign on the overpass saying Nice Choke Bizun.

          If you're going to compare the two, you should at least include the head-to-head.

              At least we have been the playoffs. You will be just like us this year watching them on TV.

                  We did back right into the playoffs but I'll take it.

                    Congrats to the Bison on making the playoffs. I expect NDSU will beat RM and will give MSU a whale of a game in the 2nd round with a good chance to win.

                      By no means am I arguing that the Jacks belong in the playoffs. SDSU finished at least two wins short of that being a realistic possibility. The point is that a mediocre Bison team, with the help of good scheduling, is a playoff team. Cripes, they're even hosting a first-round game against a relatively weak opponent. Fair? No. But money and facilities talk. The Jacks lack both. They get by mostly on hard work and toughness.

                        The bids weren't even opened until the teams were matched up. The Bison got in on their win over Kansas.

                          We should have taken care of business in Terre Haute and in Fargo ND, and then we might have been heading to Robert Morris for a playoff game. That did not happen so congrads to the Bison. They earned their way their. Notice how many 7-4 teams are in the playoffs. I would not say they were mediocare, but good enough to make the playoffs.

                            I would think the win over Kansas did help, plus wins over SDSU and the other six schools.

                              This might be the official line of the selection committee, but I think you have to be pretty naive to think that the bids play no role in the selection/matchup process.

                                Have all the naysayers in B-Ville who were saying yesterday they didn't belong in the playoffs changed their tunes? Anyone been over there? Too lazy to go myself.
