That was one of the odd things back in the day, we would play these random cupcakes .... meanwhile local schools put butts in the seats ... if we're already playing cupcakes, play SD.
I am very much against playing UND, NDSU, USD, and SDSU under any circumstances. The problem is they’re not really cupcake games for the Gophers. Those schools have and will bring lots of fans which makes it too easy for the homefield advantage to be lost if the Gophers start off flat and the visitors get any sort of momentum. If we don’t cruise to victory and have to grind out a win, or even lose, the mood gets ugly for fans in the maroon and gold. We learned this the hard way under Mason, Brewster, and Kill. If we ever play another FCS school, bring in a team from far away.
