Cratter

⬆️ Wtf.

Some more "inside baseball" analytics from Cratter (previously posted): These are quick bulletin points for a message board and may seem inconsequential but are studied in program renewal effects/sports psychology. I could divulge deeper into the short vs long term vs how many wins on average. But thats too nuanced...so instead: "Moo U sucks we gona kyck there but" (***Thats of course if we continue to ignore the kicker situation which UND will need when the opponents start to get tougher.)

See this is what im getting at... They indeed did do that (more or less) But at home was the only difference. Yes yes we know Bubba sucked on the road. No argument there. It will always be his great unknown. He might have had the biggest points spread difference known to man - home vs away in FCS Football....but on average it equates to a three point swing.

Does "make me happy" mean meeting or exceeding my personal expectations? I'd would then answer "I would say a year similar to two years ago." Why Cratter? I would certainly expect them to perform higher than last year. That was below their three year rolling average and yet was very recent.

I never knew analyzing football seasons meant my emotional state was either happy or unhappy, nor "stirring the pot." Edit: oh I get it now. Some are interpreting it as putting down this years team.... No, Im actually sticking up for last years team saying it wasn't as bad as some seem to believe. Late season losses imo was because of a deflated "we missed the playoffs season" after a devastating OT loss. Despite showing very early signs of being a good football team...Just like individual games...4th quarters when losing teams naturally "give up" and finally score isnt always indicative. I know its cool to rag on teams and coaches when they're fired though. I get it. Maybe I need to learn some things are just too nuanced for message board discussions! 😂

Thank gosh. That's an extremely low bar to pass - UND fired their coach for that performance. Just pointing out even crappy team last year started out good including beating a team ranked higher than themselves at this point in the season. A better comparison is will this team be better than the year before Bubba got fired (2023)?

Last years team started 4-1. 😉

Nice statement road win to open conference play.

Work on plays. Its 28-0 in the 4th.

Can the UNI Offense score more points than the UND Defense?

Put Romfo in at QB for the Herald photo! 😉

Games Over. Boyz just trying to keep that shutout preserved now.

Nice bomb after that trick play.

Had a long talk with one the other week. "So your whole job is bees full time?" "Yup" "California pays good money for us to bring them bees from North Dakota!"

Could have 140 at home and have 0 points.

Halftime total yards: UND 197 UNI 140

14-0 UND Perfect time to score with a minute left and UNI getting the ball after half.

Be careful on that turf. Balls bounce funny. Might let a punt go over your head only for if to come back and hit you from behind creating a live ball.

UNI fair catching it at the 4 yard line. That's a no no in Coaching 101.

A game of turnovers...or near turnovers.

Total yards: UND 93 UNI 80

Red Zone struggles continue.

The TV down and distance operator really struggling.

Props to the refs for not instinctly blowing the whistle on that play.

Kicking woes continue. 0-0 despite nice drive by UND.
