Bring on the Bison! YSU vs. ND ST. 11/14 2pm.
ValleyTalk:
I've said it once and I'll say it again, I like Davis more than Wells for his abilities, but at this point I feel a lot more confident with Wells at the helm. Any stats you are throwing out are hard to compare. Wells has gotten 90% of the snaps this year.
YSUGO:
Thank god Pelini is the coach and not you Ricky Davis For QB1 lovers. We had a QB with Davis skill set last year and he is at Slippery Rock. Last time I checked the Bison are averaging over 300 yds a game running the Ball the past 3 games. If we don't stop that it doesn't matter if Aaron Rodgers is our QB. The offensive and defensive lines are going to be the key in this game if we can get push on both sides we have a shot. We all had this penciled as a loss to begin with and we need to stop blaming whoever for the loss if that happens Pelini blames himself not the players it's a team sport not an individual sport and if we block tackle and run and win the special teams battle we don't need our QB to be superman. Just like during the JT years if the team does the basics and all 11 execute good things will happen.

3. I also like the mention of our crowd. Well I have two things to say there.
- We should take notice that someone outside of Youngstown has mentioned & get our butts in the seats.
- Those announcers should realize that 75% of our fan base has never even heard of NDSU. So who we are playing is as much (if not more) of a factor in the low turn-out, than our own team's performance.
I will take that one step further and say that in a normal season ...where we are in the post-season ...NDSU will still be the second-lowest turnout...behind USD. Further yet, I would bet that OVER 90% of the fans (if YSU were to sell out all 21k+ seats) would NOT be able to tell you that NDSU has won the past 4-titles, or even more than 1. Again it is the talk of a self-absorbed group of announcers.

The last time they played here a couple of their fans sat next to me, they were amazed that more people did not come to the game, if only because we were playing them. They do think highly of themselves. And I agree that most folks in this area do not care about them and most teams in the league. And yes could not name the past 4 NC winners

1. This is FAR from our super bowl. How arrogant can you be to even say that? Even if we had 5 or more losses, this would not be our super-bowl. This is senior day, we would have the seniors in all game. We have to win 4-in-a-row to even be mentioned as a possible post-season candidate. NDSU happens to be game #3.
2. Talk about their players from Nebraska. Do they even care that Pelini is at YSU? Do you think that their HC is even going to mention anything about that? What kind of positiove mentlity can you develop by saying "Hey ...Pelini thought you sucked so bad he did not even recruit you". What kind of HS mentality are those two guys? Hey I hope their coach does talk extensively about Pelini not recruitng them, that is less time to talk about our team.

Regarding your 3rd point, in your opinion which two games would be the top two turnouts in a normal season with playoffs?
