And he scores.

Thats not saying much. The Vegas arena only held 8,000. There was more in NYC than Vegas.

Weber #4 in the official committee top ten.

Understood. You are correct. This one was a "bonus" game. Point is all these destination games won't be that way as history has proved. Wisconsin hosted the Hall of Fame game last year in Madison.

The Madison Square Garden game wasn't the Hall of Fame game.

That's the point many will make. Especially if it takes away a UND home game.

These destination games could be a big thing in the future if done right as Brad points out. But then the REA will be turned over to the University and will they keep doing them?

Same.

I'll start saving for Vegas 2.0 then. I'm one of those people who, along with other friends, were ready to buy tickets but didn't go cause they sold out so fast.

If they get the NHL arena in Nashville. They should have gotten the NHL arena in Vegas. If you asked UND hockey fans which city they'd prefer Vegas or Nashville. Most would say Vegas. If you asked UND hockey fans who they'd prefer to play Minnesota or Penn State. Most would say Minnesota.

I havent looked up the stats but it seems like Ketteringham is good for at least one interception a game. (Of course one could argue they aren't all his fault.)

Must be more than meets the eye as Massey has Webers offense ranked higher than UNDs offense. I wouldn't be surprised if Webers offense lights up a few more defenses this year.

I dont disagree with this. That's why it was obvious from the first drive if UND was going to win this game the offense was going to need to put up some points. The UND Defense gave up 58 more yards than their season average. The UND offense had 124 less yards than their season average. That's why, IMO, this loss "doesn't entirely rest on the defense."

Case closed.

Bids haven't been submitted yet this year.

You can't be serious?

Defense gives up 566 yards: Fire Rudolph. Defense gives up 450 yards: Fire Schmidt.

This UND team has two losses at home this year. One to one of the best teams in FCS, the other to Idaho State. The defense vs Idaho State gave up 566 total yards. The defense vs Weber State gave up 450 total yards. The defense has gotten better against a much better opponent. The offense vs Idaho State got 469 total yards and 23 first downs. The offense vs Weber State got 321 total yards and 18 first downs. If the offense gets 469 yards like they did against Idaho state, UND wins this game easily...or if the teams switch quarterbacks. Simplistic terms: Defense got better. Offense got worse.

The UND offense averaged four points a quarter. A UND defensive player had to score a TD for UND to keep the game close.

Big Sky offensive player of the week. Of course we can blame the defense, but sometimes individual players just have great games....especially after getting benched. He was a 3 Star recruit out of high school who signed with Boise State.

Number of UND fans with class > Number of Gopher fans with class.

Number of poor sport Gopher fans > Number of poor sport UND fans.

This is the toughest game left on the schedule. Team responded well last time they lost. The playoff goal is still in sight. Going to be a battle.

UND #25 in the coaches poll.

Their QB was a stud and took over the game and was a big part of why they won.
