NDSU

This is about exactly how I thought this game would go. NDSU is still NDSU and will likely be in the final 4 for the national championship again. ISU isn't there, but it wasn't a blowout. It got away from us as the end, but ISU held their own for the majority of the game.

ISU's arrow is still pointed up. I think 2 more wins still gets you the playoffs and I think those two wins are certainly on the schedule.

How do you see Illinois State getting in the playoffs without a win @ SDSU?

I don't want to answer for Warrior, as he can certainly do that for himself.

But Illinois State @ 7-4 against a top 20-25 schedule certainly deserves a hard long look. No?

Hopefully SIU does not end up 7-4
That would put SDSU, NDSU, and SIU in.
7-4 UNI would really make it interesting because in order for them to finish 7-4 it is going to take them having a win over SDSU. Which would carry more weight, UNI beating the #1 ranked team or ISU winning @ UNI?
Of course UND is still in the mix. They could end up 7-3 or 7-4 (with a win over UNI).
Next three weeks will be very interesting.
Win last three games and take it out of the committee’s hands.

Well . . . for a little added context . . . The Bison have now won 38 consecutive games following a bye week. I think it’s safe to agree with the sentiment that NDSU played like they knew they would win.
