  • Re: Dakota Marker Game

    Watching it on TV it was interesting to see some of the Bison fans leaving after the interception- 1:56 on the clock and all three timeouts left. Also the announcers pretty much agreed with the interference call on the pass to Harris, and 2 of the 3 with the helmet to helmet. If not a 15 yarder for the helmet hit, then there probably could have been one for the guy slapping the ball away from Harris as he held it up to show he caught it. WHAT A CATCH! The DB was a little woozy and Harris sticks around to catch the td that preludes the winning two point conversion. How awesome! Had made the last couple games in Fargo, unfortunately not this one.

      Holy crap what a game. When Berry got hurt I got nervous. All the guys stepped up, but Berry is the real deal for our team. He's the obvious team MVP, not to put anyone else down there.

      I can already hear NDSU fans complaining. Got screwed by the refs... blah blah blah. Living in denial. All that crap on KSFY from the fargo announcers about the Bison's playoff chances was the biggest joke ever. Seriously? First the bowl game desire last year, and now this? Can't people in Fargo get a clue? By their reasoning, they'll be saying the refs screwed them out of the playoffs.

      Anyway, enough about that. Awesome game tonight, wish I could have been there. Here's to three in a row on the Bison next fall!

        I can see the front page of the Argus Leader Sports page:

        "USD loses in OT thriller"

        Below the top story it will be some story about some high school sports, then maybe the SDSU game story will be on page 2.

        God I hope all the people who were complaining about not being able to watch the Oklahoma Texas Tech game watched the Jacks play, they would have seen a really good game.

          Same here...I'm sure the last ones are just leaving the dump as we speak.

            Especially with that heart pounding 42-7 at the half of the OU-TT game. They definately got to see the best game of the two. GO JACKS!!!

              Over on Bisonville, they started out on the refs, then turned their attention to Mertens and Bibeau. I thought Mertens played fairly well tonight. He reminds me of Pat Grace from UNI. Pretty strong and athletic, but not a great passer.
              Holy nutmeg!

                We're lucky he didn't burn us any worse than he did. It seems defending running quarterbacks are our downfall.

                  Agreed. Mertens played a great game, throws one pick and the Bison fans want to lynch him.

                    We had a good year, if we deflect the pass in the McNeese game, and drive for a touch down in the SIU game we are in.....
                    But we are where we are....
                    We have an enormous amount of talent coming back next year. Our defense is going to be solid, our special teams is getting better and we didn't lose anybody serious(our kicker ended the year on a high note), Crawford is going to be good, not to mention he has some serious competition from O'Brien. I am pretty upbeat about next year.......not to start that too early.
                    We have done nothing to deflect any talent we are recruiting. Our main recruiting competition has not out done us, except for UNI, and they don't overlap us too much.

                      I posted over on Bisonville that he reminds me of Grace and Matt Barr from WIU. They don't see it that way. He did throw a lot of picks this year, but with Roehl being injured a lot this year, I get a sense they were passing more than they like to.
                      Holy nutmeg!

                        He made plays for sure. Maybe they should just stop trying to find an excuse and say, "Berry is a stud. He plays hard and makes plays and the Jacks beat us." Ha! That will never happen, but guess what? TWO IN A ROW IN THE BORDER BATTLE.

                          I was thinking the exact same thing today...SDSU beats Utah in Basketball but the gigantic front page teaser was about USD football. We should just call it the Argus Coyote Sports Page, owned, dominated and written by Mr Mick.

                            I don't read the paper version. It all seems more even-handed online.

                              First a comment
                              If we would have won we would have been 7-4 technically eligible for playoff selection. Yes, I think most of us know that there is there basically no chance to the slimmest of chances of getting in.....but there was still a chance. I don't get how its a joke....long shot...chances of it happening probably less than 1%, sure, but still think it should get mentioned. But if they did it in an annoying way or kept on bringing it up....i could see how that would be a problem or get old really fast.

                              Oh and it was the right call by the refs in this Bison fan's eyes...no complaining for me.

                              Anyway

                              Highlights:
                              -Jack fans that were there brought it. Great atmosphere...great cheering section
                              -The Pride. I could hear the pretty well across from them. I really liked having another band in the Dome
                              -Your offense was really poised given the situation with the QB and the offense stagnating in the third quarter. Kept their composure and had that big final drive
                              -Like the 'going for 2 by your coach. Great show of moxie.
                              -Another great Marker game that will be remember for a long time.

                              Great game Jacks. Great season Jacks Best of luck in the Basketball campaign
