on Saturday there's a game that I don't know how it got scheduled I don't understand how it got scheduled South Dakota State at Oklahoma State and we'll lump another game a Thursday night game game you're gonna see tomorrow night into this basket as well North Dakota State at Colorado and I thought Deion Sanders said it right at Big 12 media days Rick George the ad why did you schedule this game why did you do this to me because when you play the best of the SCS it's a no- win situation for the FBS team and I realized I made a mistake yesterday when I was talking about some of these games so South Dakota State Oklahoma state is a two-time defending FCS champ going to play a power conference school and I said the last time that happened Appalachian State beat Michigan and while it is true that Appalachian State in 2007 was a two-time defending FCS champ and did beat Michigan that was not the last time that happened the last time it happened was in 2013 when two-time defending FCS Champion so like South Dakota state now North Dakota State went to Kansas State and won in 2013 the following year three-time defending Champion NDSU beat Iowa State and then two years later five time defending national champion n DSU beat Iowa now Chris kman who coached some of those North Coast State teams he's the Kansas State coach now but both those teams are still very good obviously South Dakota state is coming off the FCS National Championship North Dakota state is the favorite to win the national title in the FCS by many who follow the FCS really interesting story by Pete thill ESP ESPN about the players who came back because there there were guys that got offered chances to go play Power Conference football for quite a bit more money than they would make playing at North Dakota State and South Dakota State like North Dakota State left tackle greay zel was one that that was targeted he decided to stay and very very funny detail in Pete Dill's Story one of the reasons he stayed so he's an AGR business major he has rented 250 Acres three hours from Fargo to plant corn and if he goes to some other school in some other state he can't do that so Gra will be protecting cam Miller and it's a a good reminder both these programs North Dakota State and South Dakota State have veteran quarterbacks they're not breaking in a new quarterback against the power Conference team for South Dakota state which is playing at Oklahoma State in Stillwater that's Mark granowski he's the reigning Walter Payton Award winner so the the FCS Heisman winner essentially and he had a chance to to maybe go to a big 12 school or go to a big 10 school and be the starting quarterback but he stayed and now he's going in there and and the thing is these are bigger senior classes these are are people that have been together that have won a lot of games together that this is their chance to make a lasting memory now they also want to win the FCS national title but they understand if they win a game like this it's another thing that they can just look back on on their college careers and say hey remember when we did that remember we went in there and and quieted a soldout stadium so I don't understand why these games got scheduled but it's going to be fun in both instances North Dakota State Colorado lots of people are gonna be watching that because everybody wants to see coach Prime it's Thursday night it's 8 o'clock Eastern time ESPN South Dakota State and Oklahoma State because it's Saturday there'll be other games going on it might not draw as much attention but in both cases you've got single digigit spreads you've got very disciplined veteran heavy teams coming in it's going to be fun now Oklahoma State also very veteran heavy lots of guys back and of course olly Gordon the second the best running back in college football from last year I think the veteran level at Oklahoma State the the level of experience in Oklahoma State probably helps in a situation like this Colorado you've got some veterans you got some guys that have played a lot of football like shador Sanders like Travis Hunter but you've also got a lot of guys who haven't played together before I think that's the difference between Colorado and Oklahoma State in that situation You' got a revamped offensive and defensive lines at Colorado where a lot of those guys came in through the transfer portal so how well do they gel together immediately against guys that have been playing together for a while that are certainly not scared and are usually pretty disciplined but those two games I'm telling you those are going to be fun those are going to be fun and we are again less than 36 hours from kickoff in Boulder the B and and the buffalos it's going to be spectacular now if you want to
