What are they going to do turn around and fly back out tomorrow? They should of stayed out there and practiced outdoors. 

Evidently they have landed in Albany. Stupid decision.

Rest today.  Fly tomorrow.  And back to business on Tuesday.

If I had to guess it wasn’t up to the school

That makes sense...probably state pinching pennies. That'd be a shame. Tire our kids out and lose the game.

Still not one persona from what can I see on Idaho tip their cap to us. Lmao...rarely has a win felt better. You can smell their arrogance all the way in NC.

Such a shame their offense “spuddered” all second half. Looking forward to “mashing” them again next fall in that glorified tuna can

Make that three! Hip hip hurray!

They just feel inadequate for demoting themselves to the FCS a few years back.

They probably returned to NY for the campus food.

That's another bad decision. After they got rid of Wendy's and Tim Horton's in the campus center, it all went downhill! I think we had the only Tim Horton's this side of Buffalo.

Travel’s paid by the ncaa. May not have been our choice

It’s supposed to be a high of 45 degrees on Friday in Brookings. Perfect weather for this team.

State has nothing to do with it.  Could be the NCAA...I doubt it.  I have a feeling this was a school decision, including the coaching staff.  Not great IMHO.  Historically, schools that do this are up against the wall.  I think Maine decided to stay out west one year.   I also blame the NCAA.  Having a game that late, we should have gotten the saturday slot.

How old are you guys having livid through the last ice age? In all seriousness...great memories. If the Dakota fans think we haven't seen cold weather...they got another thing coming. With that said ..we are dog in this one and playing with nothing to lose.
