Biggest concern for Illinois State against NDSU on Saturday?

[Anon1754760634]

Illinois State has no indoor facility......and I can't imagine they have been able to get much quality work in under these weather conditions plus your playing in what I'm sure will be better weather in Frisco, Texas.....

I would think they used Horton Fieldhouse.

 

[godfthr53]

I'm sure they found a place. Heck even high school teams find something indoors come playoff time.

Almost positive they would go inside the field house to get their work in.

Still not the same.....but yeah forgot about Horton

I hear they are practicing in Illinois Weslyeans field house.

Biggest concern is that NDSU has been there 4 years in a row now. They've gotten used to that time off in-between the semi's and the championship game.

Thats ok, NDSU is going to be multiplied up to FBS next season Its part of the success penalty!

Also ISU fans will be outdrawn say 2,000 ISU fans to what 18,000 plus NDSU fans? Heard NDSU fans began buying up ISU fan tickets from ISU before they caught on and stopped selling tickets to anyone outside of Illinois area codes? NDSU has insane fan support

It's the only game in town up there, it's their ISU, Illini and Bears all wrapped into one... No MLB or NBA to compete with, not even real NCAA basketball..

Edgy, don't forget that there is a big number of ISU grads that are in the suburban Dallas area that are employed by State Farm down there, and they may help give the 'Birds a big lift by helping to sell out Toyota Park.

 

[Anon1754760634]

Dr. game has been sold out for weeks so no walk up available.......also trsut me IASU needed to fight off NDSU fans from buying up it's entire allotment....ISU will be outdrawn badly

 

[HHSTigerFan]

ISU be doing very well if they make up 20% of the fans..

The Bizzun will just move their game day experience down to Frisco tomorrow. Fargo is a great place to tailgate, although way too much yellow in the Fargo Dome. I'm sure it'll be easy to estimate the crowd difference between the yellow and the red. ISU will be wearing helmet decals to support the Eastern Washington family after a tragic death of an EWU players' Dad, who had a heart attack during their game with ISU. Very classy move by the Redbirds.

 

[Prep writer]

A lot of red on my flight down to Dallas tonight.

ISU will have about 3,500 fans in attendance and end the Bison streak tomorrow.

Can. Not. Wait.
