So, watching the telecast doesn't do us any favors ... visitors side is largely empty and they must not have any cameras capable of panning the home crowd because they rarely do so. Which leads an obnoxious bison fan to make the following observation on the Any Given Saturday board:

"Re: Richmond @ Eastern Washington
What's worse the game or atmosphere?"

Of course he probably just got home from sitting in a dome and can't imagine playing a playoff game on a field surrounded by snow banks but he has a legitimate question. The playoff games at Cheney are fun in person but the experience and atmosphere certainly doesn't translate to the screen. I would disregard the part about it being a bad game. The JMU/SHSU game was a bad game, this is simply a better team imposing its will on their opponent.
Meh, I'm more concerned with regular season attendance, which has been great...over 10k. December football is cold, you can't have a lot of the amenities in the playoffs that you do in the regular season, and school's out so there's very few students around. Attendance next week will be better.

I seem to recall the last time NDSU played on your field it didn't turn out well for them.

I hope you got a return game with them for playing in their dome this year. Then you guys can show them what a game day atmospheres is like when you mop them up of the field.

If you win the NC it really doesn't matter and I really hope you do. NDSU fans have become some the worst in FCS.

Yep, it's a home and home. They'll be coming to Cheney next year.
 
What a couple of games for the defense. My wife and I were blessed to be in town and at the last two games, maybe; best defensive efforts I have ever witnessed from the Eags. Got a chance to meet many exuberant Eag fans and celebrate these victories. Big challenges still to come but there is NO doubt this team can meet them and overcome. YSU is no joke. Wish we could see this one , but won't miss the VERY cold temperatures.
