FCS QUARTERFINALS

[DyedBlue]

#1 Seed SDSU breaks out of a 21-21 tie early in forth quarter against the Holy Cross Crusaders and wins going away, 42-21 I believe. Outdoors and cold. Stadium perhaps 50% full.

#2 Sacramento State falls in the highest scoring game in FCS playoff history losing to Incarnate Word 66-63. UIW has a prolific passing attack. Had the ball only about 20 minutes and scored 66.

#3 NDSU grinds down stubborn Samford 27-9. Gets a semifinal home game since #2 lost. Everything going the way of the Bison again.

In a stunning result, the Bobcats of Montana State blasted William & Mary 55-0. The cold of SDSU outdoors will be of no consequence to the Bobcats. Are we on the way to a Bobcat VS Bison rematch?

NDSU rallies from down 16-0 in first quarter to defeat Incarnate Word 35-32.
IW left seven points off the board by twice going for fourth down conversions in easy FG range plus a failed two point conversion.

Darn, I was pulling for IWU. Hopefully SDSU can win today, and then beat NDSU in Frisco. I think the weather is going to favor the Jackrabbits. It's single digits with quite a bit of snow. The MSU equipment truck was struggling to even get to Brookings. One of my buddies, who's also a trucker, is stuck in Rapid City because I-90 is shut down across most of the state.

SDSU up on MTSU 21-6 halfway through the 2nd Quarter.

28-6 Jacks just before the half.

 

[Sycamorefan96]

36-12 SDSU now late in the 3rd. Looks like it's going to be an NDSU vs SDSU final barring an epic collapse.

SDSU 38
MT ST 19
FINAL

The ultimate NDSU vs SDSU match. Whoever wins that game will have bragging rights in the Dakotas for at least the next 50 years.

I got to watch about half the SDSU game. Msu just kept getting colder as the day went on. SDSU looked like they were getting warmer.

Not playoff related but neon must have spent too much time with his new team. Things didn't turn out good for his old team yesterday.
