Busy Day on USD Board

Re: Busy Day on USD Board

I'm guessing that a plurality of both your law and medical students are SDSU graduates. So you go ahead and hang your hat on that one.

Exactly what I was thinking.

USD has a good fan base ... just because they don't take time out of the middle of their work day to blog with the beat writer (who spends 85% of his job covering one school) or post thousands of time on a message board does not mean they are lacking fans. Most USD fans I know support their team but seem to find other things to fill their day besides blogging or posting about every single thing that goes on at the U.

Doesn't Mick spend 85% of his job covering one school? I think the only one that covers two schools is Zimmer who covers Augie and USF I believe

Re: Busy Day on USD Board

A somewhat interesting topic. In all honestly I don't think USD or SDSU have been top tier programs all around in D2. UND and NDSU were both more successfull collectively at the D2 level than either USD or SDSU.

Really?

With Mick, the games that are not at the dump do not count. Remember away games do not count at usd2.

That focus on "The Big 3" has been a problem at USD for a long time. It leads to Title IX lawsuites, and baseball and wrestling going away. Maybe USD fans should care about "all" their student athletes.

Re: Busy Day on USD Board

I am not sure of the exact head to head record between the two schools but since Boots took over USD has been in the lead in the head to head matchups for most of that time.

I haven't had time to look too far back but over the last 10 years (21 games) its SDSU men with 12 wins. That doesn't equate to "most of the time", at least not in the real world where we use facts to support good arguments.

I have no idea when Boots took over but when I have time I can go back and check the archives for those years as well. I'm just guessing but I bet it pretty close to even.

Re: Busy Day on USD Board

JackMD - I'll do the research for you since I happen to have an SDSU Men's BB media guide laying around. Here we go.

Boots came to USD in 1988.

1988-89 (Thorson):
1/8/89: SDSU
2/4/89: USD
SDSU 1 win - USD 1 win

1989-90 (Thorson):
1/26/90: USD
2/23/90: USD
1-3

1990-91 (Thorson):
2/2/91: USD
3/1/91: SDSU
3/9/91: SDSU (NCC Tourney)
3-4

1991-92 (Thorson):
2/1/92: USD
2/28/92: USD
3-6

1992-93 (Thorson):
1/16/93: USD
2/12/93: USD
3-8

1993-94 (Soderburg):
1/15/94: USD
2/11/94: USD
3-10

1994-95 (Soderburg):
1/21/95: USD
2/17/95: USD
3-12

1995-96 (Nagy):
1/20/96: SDSU
2/16/96: SDSU
5-12

1996-97 (Nagy):
1/25/97: USD
2/15/97: USD
5-14

1997-98 (Nagy):
1/24/98: SDSU
2/20/98: SDSU
7-14

1998-99 (Nagy):
12/20/98: USD
2/26/99: SDSU
8-15

1999-00 (Nagy):
1/3/00: USD
3/3/00: SDSU
9-16

2000-01 (Nagy):
12/30/00: SDSU
1/26/01: USD
10-17

2001-02 (Nagy):
12/30/01: SDSU
1/25/02: SDSU
12-17

2002-03 (Nagy):
1/16/03: SDSU
2/15/03: USD
13-18

2003-04 (Nagy):
1/9/04: SDSU
2/28/04: USD
3/5/04: USD
14-20

So now the argument is if USD's 20 wins out of 34 games is "most of time." Smack away!

Re: Busy Day on USD Board

So it looks like we were 3-12 against USD under Thorson and Sodeberg.

Since Nagy arrived we are 11-8.

I guess I would say that Boots did have quite an advantage over Thorson and Sodeberg. Nagy faired a little better against Boots although we did lose the last 2 meetings in Vermillion.

Re: Busy Day on USD Board

Just because I like to collect stupid facts, I keep a log of how many posts and users are on the five xDSU/UxD messageboards and update it once a month. I thought you'd like to know that SDSUFans was 31.86 times as active as CoyoteSports in December. Even the second Bison site, BisonSports, was more active. The overall winner this month was Bisonville.

December 2008
Bisonville: 6286
SDSUFans: 5002(nice work Bunnies!)
SiouxSports: 4691
BisonSports: 268
CoyoteSports: 157

(Yes, SDSUFans averages more posts per day than CoyoteSports does in a month.)

I'd give you the 2008 totals, but I only started keeping track of SDSUFans, BisonSports and CoyoteSports in August. You've moved up to second from third since then.


Happy New Year everyone
