Nervously looking forward to this game.


empathydoc

As someone that watches SDSU play, you should probably be nervous for it. This gives off the same type of energy as NDSU when they were having their title streak.


Danster21

Yeah I’d actually be more worried about SDSU than NDSU. They’re the current top dawgs


empathydoc

I'm saying WHEN NDSU was on their title streaks. They weren't a good team to schedule. Iowa did and lost. SDSU right now feels similar.


Danster21

Oh yeah that makes sense


Davidellias

I mean ya'lls game vs SDSU wasn't exactly clean either...


empathydoc

That was the beginning of their title streak. Also, Iowa's offense was dreadful then with Petras. Iowa's defense won that game. SDSU is arguably better now and Okie State doesn't have the grandest of defenses. Their offense will be better than Iowa's for sure.


bradenb941

Both similar situations too. Both Iowa and Oklahoma State played them the year after losing in their conference title game, where the other school is the defending FCS champion


empathydoc

Yeah, it has a lot of similarities. If I were a betting man, I'd sprinkle some in on that upset.


thiccretropenguin

7-3 iowa masterclass


empathydoc

Ferentz special. FG and two safeties.


thiccretropenguin

including a missed fg from 30 yards


empathydoc

We only talk about successful Iowa scores. It's shorter and takes less time to think about. The lone exception is the DeJean invalid fair catch signal rule, which was the dumbest ruling that could have happened. We literally watched that game play-out in full speed and know the result. No one took it for a fair catch. Over-officiating for the sake of over-officiating.


HankChinaski-

SDSU will still be very good I think, but they are having a large roster turnover from last year. See how fast they can reload.


Shootit_Rockets

This already has the feel of a sneaky good game


Darth_Ra

Easily the best game of week 1, tbh >The game will be streamed on ESPN+. Jesus, execs have no idea about anything about cfb, do they.


NoChocolate1899

Nope. Iowa State-North Dakota for the FS1 slot over this 🙃


cardsox

Sneaky? Everything I have seen from south dakota st tells me they are legit and if they had the wealth of recruits that other schools have they would easily be d1. I am terrified of this game more so than the tulsa game.


vindictivejazz

I’m more scared of this game than our game against an SEC school


Exotic_Ninja5274

Man thank god I know OSU so if we lose this one I know better than to lose all hope


Inkblot9

How's an 11-1 regular season, undefeated against FBS teams, sound?


genzgingee

Like peak Gundy.


PokesFanInDallas

I’ll take it


diastereomer

If we go 9-0 in conference then we probably also lost to Arkansas so more like 10-2.


anti-torque

Did Arkansas lose the Ar part of their name?


Charming_Clock_5607

Okie St fans reaction be like: "Oklahoma State vs South..." "Fuuuuuuuuck-" "...Dakota State." "FUCK!"


ayethemjazz

school name starts with “south” ✅ team name starts with “j” ✅ oklahoma state should easily win ✅ mike gundy masterclass or disasterclass: unknown


NihilisticOkie

Thankfully we won't be having QB tryouts during the game this time...


Wolf482

I mean, I'm smiling, but I am very fucking furious.


vindictivejazz

1 PM in August is actual cruelty. At least with 11am kickoffs it’s cooler for pregaming and at the beginning of the game. At least with 2:30 kickoffs it might be a bit shady by the end of the game. 1 o’clock is just the 4 hottest hours of the day.


Molson2871

Why do these FBS schools never learn 🤔


Darth_Ra

Because 20 years ago when this was scheduled, SDSU was just middling.


NoChocolate1899

This was actually scheduled in 2020. Part of Nebraska changing the 2020 and 2023 contracts. In order to not pay a buyout fee Nebraska offered SDSU to move the games to 2028 and 2030 and help them find an FBS opponent for their future schedule. And here we are


Darth_Ra

Wow. Crazy silly for oSu to have done this, in that case. Still, should make for a sweet game!


frippmemo

Going to be hot as hell. I bet we lose this one then win out in September.


Nicholas1227

It’s 1pm Central on 8/31 on ESPN+


ayethemjazz

{South Dakota State}


SCsprinter13

Oh damn, I didn't realize OSU was starting the season off 0-1


BYU_is_Mid

Would be cooler if it was a night game.


frippmemo

Get out of here with logical things.

The best part about the Gophers always opening on Thursday nights is that I can spend the weekend just watching. Let's go Jacks!!!
