Both Massey and Sagarin have NDSU as a 3 point favorite. JMU was a much bigger underdog when we won in the Fargo Dome. I wonder if Bison would give me 17 points in a bet?

Versus has JMU -2 on a neutral field. They have been a really good predictor for most of our games.

But, it wasn't the buffalo hunters who nearly rendered the smelly Bisons extinct. It was the smelly beasts' departure from the "one bull/one cow" concept of mating that nearly did them in. Note this fabulous rainbow bison in Fargo, for Gay Pride Week, I presume....

How does North Dakota State U promote safe sex?

The admin places "this animal kicks" signs on the slow buffalos...

...and as of December 2019, students receive rubbers in the mail according to the school

While I respect NDSU - it does suck to still have to explain to office mates who they are. You'd think as dominant as they have been folks would of heard of them, but I guess it's still fcs.

Lol the JMU fans in Frisco should just say "Bison" right and left. If an NDSU fan corrects you, just say "I'm pronouncing it like an American, not a GD Frenchman!":pbjtime:

Sorry, but you are just not talking to football fans then. And those people wouldn’t know who won cusa or sun belt either.

Everyone in my office knows who we are and what we and ndsu have done.

I know everyone in my office is dialed in for the New Orleans bowl featuring a top 25 team.
Is that game being played New Year’s Eve or New Years Day?

Not mine. I talk about taking off on the 10th to go to Texas to see the championship game. I get the blank stare and start to explain NDSU and then just head to it's the championship game at our level. If you talk FCS all the time, or have another FCS fan in you office, I think it would be different. But I'm used to the blank stare I frequently get and how to abandon ship on the explanation. To me I feel like everyone knows about NDSU. Not the case in most situations with me.

I'm tempted to wait and see if the line moves further before making a bet. Half the simulations/computers have us winning and half have NDSU winning. This game is going to be a pick em before kickoff is my guess

Nobody in my office went to an fcs school. They are just sports fans. They know all about us and ndsu.

Up here in the Philly area seems everyone who is an Eagles fan (which is most people I know) know all about NDSU due to Carson Wentz.

RE: NDSU ---- We're Baaaaack!
Most people around DC/NoVa know who JMU is, and I see shirts and bumper stickers everywhere. NDSU not so much. Most (though not all) JMU alums recognize them, but not as many people who went to places like VT, UMd or UVA. Heck, I even had to explain to some of my own family from the Valley who NDSU was recently.

The average joe just sees what is on mainstream TV each week. I'm sure they have stronger general population recognition of NDSU in their region, just like we do here. The game being on ABC this year may help both schools expand name recognition a bit.
