I ran a couple of 100 game sims using last years NDSU teams just to see how close it would have been with SHSU. There are several claiming that if that game was played 10 times, Sammy would come out on top.

SHSU at home - NDSU wins 60% of matchups
NDSU at home - NDSU wins 77% of matchups

Just for fun.

NDSU wins 100% of matchups against UND at home
NDSU wins 84% of matchups against UND on the road.

I love that 2011 team.
