  1. James Madison is basically twice the size of NDSU (22k students vs. 12k) and is also situated in a highly populated state surrounded by other highly populated states... it's a 2-hour drive to metro D.C., Baltimore, etc. NDSU is in Fargo surrounded by several low population states. There's only one decent sized city anywhere close (Minneapolis-St. Paul) and it's 3.5 hours away. It just seems that James Madison may have several built-in advantages, in terms of potential resources and recruiting base, that NDSU just doesn't have.
  2. Saw on Reddit their season opener with North Dakota State has been moved to the Thursday night prime time spot in week 1. This feels like a very high potential for early week 1 lulz.

    Nice. Yeah you need to come back and experience it in its full glory. You should also check out the Woody Guthrie Center and the Bob Dylan Archives some time when you're in town if you haven't. Also the Church Studio... those are must-sees for music fans.

    The more I listen to "Only God Was Above Us" the more I absolutely love it. I don't think Vampire Weekend will ever top the masterpiece that was "Modern Vampires of the City" but this one is right below it in my book as their 2nd best album. It's just really really excellent.

    Finally cashed in a gift card for a local store that I’ve been sitting on for like 6 months, lol. Picked up the new Vampire Weekend record (excellent) as well as a few classics I’ve wanted forever but just never picked up.

    Yeah really love the new Vampire Weekend. While I liked the sprawling “jam band” vibe of “Father of the Bride” at the time, I don’t go back to it too often just because it’s so unweildy. ”Only God Above Us” feels more like a proper follow-up to “Modern Vampires of the City.” I’m really, really liking it a lot.
  9. Yeah TCU is turrible this year. Too bad. I always look forward to them eliminating Aggy in the regionals.
  10. Can't wait for The Dude's always accurate season predictions as well. Watching him predict a WVU win for every single game, then disappear for days after each loss and then come back and do it all over again the next week was always a treat.
  11. Well to be fair, the studios probably DID think he did well. TFA was a HUGE hit and fans only began to drag it in retrospect. Same with his Star Trek re-boot.
  12. J.J. Abrams is the Hollywood equivalent of a cover band.

    I'm really digging the new Old 97's record. I think it's my favorite of theirs since "Most Messed Up." The first three tracks are classic Old 97's rockers. Also really dig the two Murry songs and also "Western Stars."
  14. K-State and Iowa State fans are listing Texas as their "biggest rival?" Umm... I seriously doubt that. I don't doubt other Texas schools, and forgot about Arkansas... don't doubt that one. Nebraska? Umm no. That's going to be OU, or maybe some rando team in the B1G, depending on the fan's age. I think you're confusing "schools who enjoy Texas losing" with "schools who list Texas as their biggest rival."
  15. Yeah I'd like to see the details of this very scientific sounding "study." Obviously OU and Aggy are going to list Texas as their biggest rival. Beyond that, maybe a handful of Texas-based FBS schools... maybe Tech, TCU, Baylor, Houston... maybe SMU... who are the other four? UTSA? SFA? Rice? Texas A&M-CC?
