    NDSU has a better road record during this dynasty.

    I think UNI over SDSU has the most potential.

    We would win handily, we have won a few games outside before, maybe you should do some research.

    I voted Montana after their loss to Montana St. It's the end of the year and I ask myself if they have they become vulnerable?. I am not positive, but for me it is a good guess.

    They played at SDSU, at ISU and at SIU, top 3 of the next top 4 in the MV. I think they can play outside.

    I always find it amazing everyone is like "You get to play UNI/NDSU outside and it's an advantage" like UNI and NDSU aren't also in the frozen tundra (and actually far worse than what 95% of the subdivision can think of throwing out for winter weather) and don't practice outside.

    Here is a hint, UNI and NDSU don't practice indoors unless lightning/excessive rain causes the fields to be an issue or the game is indoors.

    I mean....this was UNI at practice literally a week ago

    Also, teams like NDSU/UNI aren't these types of spread offense teams that get effected by the weather. If you can run the ball and play good D, the elements aren't that big of a factor.

    I thought NDSU built an indoor practice facility so they wouldnt have to practice outside. Ive never given much thought to having an advantage because of the elements unless you game specifically suites one of those elements.

    NDSU started raising $$ for IPF last year but I believe that they use a "bubble" for football practice but they still practice outside once in a while. I agree with you on the elements thing, it will effect one team more than another based on the style of football they play.
