Both teams should be top 5 for this game.

Davis loves to throw the ball around in the passing game with Maier. Smaller QB but really good. Can the Bison defense slow him down passing? Can the Bison DL get pressure or do they need to bring extra rushers to do so?

Davis has a mediocre defense. Can it stop the power running game of the Bison? Do they stuff the A gap and make the Bison go to the perimeter and passing game? Will they bring new looks to Lance to try and confuse him?

Personally, I doubt Davis is going to slow down the Bison without NDSU committing a lot of turnovers. Usual formula for the Bison: Run the ball, play action pass and play fundamentally sound defense.

Will the noise affect the Davis offense? 1st time for these players in the Dome.


IMO, the Bison roll.
