Longtime fan

Plus Evan "4.2 40" holm and Tyus.

Mistakes are part of the game...if you were to make those same mistakes against UND you will lose. UND capitalizes on mistakes and it sounds like sdsu likes to make enough of them. It would be fun if sdsu comes to gf....were indoors and have turf like you mentioned.

Obviously he's very "green" yet.....hasn't played enough mins to get a true gauge but yes....he needs another 30-40 lbs. What I like though is the leverage and initial push that he has so far demonstrated. Think he will be just fine when the weight gets added

The teams in contention for the eight seed: und- (9-2) season complete- 5 wins in sagarins top 40. One fcs lose #48 sagarin, stony sdsu-(6-3) @ uni- 5 wins in sagarin top 40. Two fcs loses- #25 cal poly, #12 Illinois st. Central Arkansas-(9-1) @ Sam Houston- no top 40 wins (one fbs win) one fcs lose #15 Samford chatty-(8-2)- @ Alabama- two top 40 sagarin wins- two fcs loses #13 citadel and #16 wofford Think it comes down to if central Arkansas beats Sam Houston ...if not, UND looks like the front runner. Sam would be their only win over a top 40 team all year plus Arkansas st which is an fbs team. I could see UND slipping by Richmond for the seventh seed as well. We have one fcs loss, they have two, one of which is an ass kicking by stony.

Post game thoughts: big sky champs!! 8-0!!!!! refs were absolutely terrible The offense needs for UND to receive a seed....really beat up UND is a much better 2nd half team.....every game this year brady needed to have at least 25+carries yesterday NAU is a very good team the crowd finally woke up in the 4th and it made a difference no sacks for the d but won the TO margin which was huge!! 9 game win streak!!!! Big Sky champs!!!! It has been a long time that UND has been relevant and the feeling of high fiving the players after the game......chilling ! Well done bubba

I mentioned that earlier this week....NAU has all the pieces...scary good team. I believe they're the most complete team in the big sky. Huge win for UND!

This is just a start to many banners being risen in the Al. Left no doubt

Yup....another seed opens. Central Arkansas plays at sam Houston next week....hopefully opening one more spot. UND is sitting in pretty good shape

True gold!!!

Unbelievable game!! Big sky champs....9 game winning atreak ....Possible seed....wow!!! Just wow!......what a game!!!! Congrats to bubba and crew! I'm flying high! The offense needs some time to heal up.....injuries everywhere.....great time for a bye! The worse officiated game I have ever witnessed man what a game!!!

Game day! Looks like it will be small in numbers, hopefully not small in noise....bring your voice!

This will be UNDs first test against a true passing team. The first 10 opponents are not known for their passing game....need tons of pressure from every direction. Schmitt will no doubt call a great game, hope the guys respond. Being an audible team, NAU constantly checks at the line ....the 12th man needs to be heard !

Exactly

Butler is simply a dude! But it's Elijah Marks that's the difference maker.....speed speed speed...to go along with great hands. Tough to double team either one of them as they both are phenomenal WRs. Torrey and Deion need to have their best game tomorrow. NAU is talented and built on speed both on offense and defense. Going to be a great game

Montanas forum mentioned that they had thought NAU had the best the o line in the big sky.

The front seven has been fantastic so far this year...but we need their best game tomorrow. Constant pressure and a loud crowd!!! I can't stress that enough....every defensive play needs to be ear deafening!

Chatty at #7 seed still has to play a very tough Wofford team and Alabama.

Wow! UCA, which is currently #9 has to play Sam Houston yet as well. UND is sitting in pretty good condition....big time game Saturday! 12th man needs to step it up!!

Just looked at Ticketmaster....not looking good for perhaps the biggest game played at the Al in the d1 era....

Absolutely pumped for this game! I get a little teary eyed when it's senior day and this particular group of seniors has been through A LOT and have given us the hope we have been wanting since becoming d1 status. Finally!! Come out and give them a rousing thank you! They deserve it! Add to it, Und sits very close to a seed with a W plus going undefeated in the big sky!! Wow! Who would of thought that three years ago. Just take care of business....you guys have done it for the last two months, make it one more!!! I would love nothing more than to go to a home d1 playoff game.....let's not make this the seniors last home game !! Also nervous about this game. N zona has the most talented team we faced this year offensively and defensively speaking. They have been playing some great ball lately and definitely have momentum....Und needs to put it to an end. On offense, WR Butler is a complete beast, 6'4" 220, fantastic route runner and hands of glue. But it's E Marks that has me the most worried, absoulute burner!!! Hunt is in for a long day trying to keep up with him. Could be a lot of single coverage by und Saturday with the talent they have and how they spread around. Need to be at our best. Nice talented combo of rbs with a fresh and a senior... but not overly concerned as our front seven should shut them down. This week more than ever is an absolute must that our front seven gets pressure on their qb, cannot let him get comfortable with the talented WRs. Their TE has been playing some nice ball recently, need to keep an eye on him. Defensively, they are smaller but fast! We did not fair well against webers d which is also fast. NAU leads the big sky in sacks and 4th in rush d. #90 anau could possibly be the big sky DPOY....aggressive DE that looks to be all over the field. Great player. We will miss Studsrud and his versatility on Saturday if he's still out. Bartles could potentially take some hits as he just doesn't have the escapability that studs has. A lot depends on the health of our o line as well. Their secondary is young and will give up the occasional big pass.....hope we can take advantage. Und needs to shove the ball down their throats and control the TOP. Would love to see santiago out wide with Brady and Gordon carrying the ball....Brady 25-30 carries....Gordon 10-15 carries. We need to match their speed on d with our power game. Santiago could take short screen passes and then let him do what he does best....juke and go! Sprinkle in some TE action to victory. Lastly, the alerus needs to be loud!!!! If only 7000 show, no excuses for anything under 10000, everyone that attends need to support this team and be loud!!!! 1st down loud!! 2nd down loud!!! 3rd down loud!!!! NAU is a fast paced team that checks all the time....and being loud will disrupt them...gauranteed! 12th man!!! Our team is a little tired and beat up.....they need support! It's Senior day, chance for big sky crown, undefeated in big sky, potential seed, national recognition ...this game should be a buzz the entire time! Bubba has done a fantastic job and the boys have responded now we as fans need to step up!! Cant wait!!!!

The media has to get the word out every. single. day!! Hype the !@#$ out of this game!! It deserves the hype

We match up better with the ndsus,UNIs, citadels of the world than the e wash's, sam Houston's, sdsu's of the world. I would like to see the committee put und in the ndsu bracket.

Should be 11000+ my guess 6500-7000

Congrats bubba and team!!! Playoffs... year 3!

Unds d the last two games 52 rush attempts 18 yards 5 INTS 32 points/ 16.0 ave 9 sacks Dominant!!!!!
