Heard on an FCS podcast that NDSU was hoping to get 30,000 to 40,000 in the dome in Minneapolis on Saturday. Right now, they're going to be lucky to get 20,000 in there.

SEMO has only 4 home games in their freshly built stadium. Life could be worse.
Eastern is up on Indiana St 12-0 close to halftime. I wish we had ISU earlier on the schedule.
It's 27-0 EI-EI-EIU now.
Indiana State looks awful…they may contend for bottom of the Valley with Western and Murray.

Think their starting QB was out to be fair
Their defense also looked awful and the quarterback made a couple of terrible throws for pick TDs.
I thought Eastern looked pretty darn good .. got some talent on that team.
South Dakota got whipped by Missouri 35 to 10 - no surprise there and Youngstown blew out a bad Valpo team from the Pioneer League.
I think Youngstown is going to be better than people thought. They've got their whole defense back. I did not see their starting quarterback but I saw the second team freshman quarterback.His dad won two national championships there and that kid's really got some talent. Will not be surprised to see him become the starter before the year is over.
SDSU was up 35 zip at half against Western Oregon. Think they played the waterboy second half and won 45 to 7.
@salukiworld They still looked awful. I watched the entire game and I thought ISU looked like a mediocre high school football team. They didn't seem to be good at anything.
Missouri State +31.5 at Kansas tonight on ESPN+. Anybody think MSU can keep it within that?
Missouri State takes the lead in the 2nd quarter. 10-7 with 11:26 in the 2nd
