The Official/unofficial Cats vs ndsu game day thread...

Post by catsrback76 » Sat Dec 01, 2018 2:50 am

2nd Round Playoff game day thread is now open!

We've heard all the prognostications about how this game is an uphill battle for the Cats. We get that! There is no way we will win...we get that.

As per some commentators, most commentators, we have less than a 1% chance to win this game. We get it.

So what, it's time to go out and win the game that makes us the playoff darlings. This will be a fun game no matter how it plays out for the Cat win!

Go Get it Cats!!! =D^ =D^ =D^

The Bobcats have nothing to lose, so they may as well try to match NDSU’s physicality, discipline and focus all game. That way they’ll at least know where they stack up with the Bison. This is one of the best teams NDSU has had. They’ve outscored their opponents by 29 points per game (most during their current run) and out gained them by 170 yards per game (3rd most).

Bison 28
Bobcats 14

Curious to see if the old dog (Messingham) has any trick plays up his sleeve. The Bison have been kind of vanilla in that regard.

Best of luck to the Bobcats. Hope everyone has safe travels.

Even if he's healthy enough, it's been a year since he's played. I can't imagine he'd be very effective. Glad to hear he's recovered, though! LBs should be great next season.

I think they are vanilla because they dominate the line of scrimmage and simply don't need to do anything else. Every coach in America would love the luxury of being able to trot out a vanilla offense and take no risks because they don't have to. Billings Central was that way this year in Class A.

That being said, let's hope the 'Cats can disrupt things a little and make it interesting. GO CATS!

He’s playing today. I don’t know how much but can’t imagine our staff would trot him out there if they didn’t think he could be effective. Nice addition.

Wow that's crazy. I can't imagine he'll play much. I wonder if the coaches want to convey to the team the season can go on after today... 😁

I obviously don’t know the specifics but back surgery is back surgery. Wonder if today will be a barometer of his football future?

I think the key to this game will be how long can Yates play.

Well IF there are any Bobcat fans, and I would say even bison fans in the Istrian peninsula of Croatia, I have you covered with great gin, and the most educated commentary in Europe!!! 8)

Agreed TomCat.....I say bring it! Who knows....maybe the Cats will get a couple of turnovers and surprise a few Bison fans...
