Luke is out for the year. Right arm in a cast for a minimum 3 weeks due to ligament damage and cracked bone. !@#!$ way to end senior year and season.
That guy was(is) a monster. Wish he'd have been utilized more. Best wishes to him

oh yeah, and the owner of tv's Count's Customs has a night club called Vamp'd. Great rock venue not to far east of the Strip.
And you have money to burn, you can take a Ferrari, Porsche, Lambo, etc, around a closed track at the speedway on the north end of town.

I lived in LV for a few years . . . didn't spend a lot of time on the Strip.
It depends on if you have a car or if you're just hoofing it around the Strip. If you have wheels, Hoover Dam is an awesome experience.
For food my favorite was The Peppermill on the north end of the Strip. It's like crossing a 70's strip club with a Perkins (with MUCH better food).

And that's what's great about football. We can talk contracts and offseason practices . . . but when it comes game time, any team can beat any team on any day.
(UND at Sam Houston for example)

I'm impressed. They found a way to win.
and TANK with the stop!!!! That made me jump outta my chair. Love the way he plays.

Any predictions this year? i say vikes 11-5
Life long Vikes fan here . . . and I'll say 9-7.
That schedule is tough, and I honestly think their record last year was better than the team actually was. (hope I'm wrong)

Yup.
Can I at least hope for a downpour?So you're saying it will literally take an act of God to win this game?

In all seriousness, I've pondered this question for about ten minutes now.
How can they pull off a win? I think it would have to be good old fashioned luck.
Some Washington missed field goals, bad snaps, tipped balls . . . etc.
One of those "nothing went W's way today" type of games.

Tradition.
Santiago up the middle for a loss of a half yard. Get into that 3rd and 7 territory and then
throw the ball out of bounds.
Tradition.

That actually makes me want a mascot more!

His throwing is gorgeous. He’s just so damn frail.
And I would say he is one of the smartest QB's out there. I was all about Bradford. He just can't stay on the field.
-
I'm seriously stunned that anyone would bank on Bradford to be a starter. Mr Glass getting paid to start. I'm stunned.

I was hoping for Keenum (start) and Bradford (backup). just sayin

But he didn't. He's healthy now and ready to play football.
Same with Sam Bradford. He's healthy and ready to play football.
Just don't quite get the hey, you're injured and we're moving on type mentality.
I get it . . . when an injury puts you out for years, or you seem to get injured about every third game.
It's a business. They are paid to play, not set at home in a recliner waiting for another MRI result.
I know, it stinks. It goes against everything I was brought up to believe. But if it's my money, I pay the guys that play.

Will Bubba take the necessary steps to clean up the culture of the team? Or will he just wait another year or two for graduations....or at least for eligibilities to run out..... to take care of the problem?
It appeared that the player issues came mainly from kids that were recruited under Bubba's regime. I'm assuming more of the same issues unless "we want quality kids" is acted upon instead of just being a nice little saying.

Now that right there.....is a good question!
That Big Sky Championship two years ago was won by the players more than the coaches.
just my opinion
-
Keep Keenum as a starter, use Bradford as a backup and let Teddy sign on somewhere else. Teddy is a great guy, but we have no idea what he is physically capable of. He suited up, then sat the rest of the games. Not a good sign. Bradford is a great QB when he's healthy . . . hence I think he could be a good backup.
I'll give Case the benefit of the doubt. He did a great job this season. And what if he is capable of sustaining that level of play?
I would think Case would want to stick with the receivers and tight ends that the Vikings have. That team could be solid for quite a few years.

In all honesty, who cares about interviewing the losing team. Coaches are not hired to be media spokesmen. They are hired to coach and win...if a coach or player doesnt want to talk i dont see the problem.
I’m a Vikes fan. I could care less if i ever here an interview.

Glad to see my old Vikings back. Welcome home. i’ve missed you this season.
In all honesty, very proud of the Vikes. Things are tracking in the right direction.

that . . . that right there could have been UND's logo!!!
i'll take our Post Office hawk over the bird with teeth ANY day!!
(great, bird teeth is the last thing i see before i go to bed)

I'm not a fan of the Angry Bird in a headdress. Zero imagination there.
(at least the bird didn't have teeth . . . bird logos with teeth give me nightmares)

5.9 ypc? That's a stat that just doesn't tell the truth. The average run was for about .5 yards, then every fifteen plays or so someone would break one for 30+ yards. That one long run was usually 100% player effort. There's no consistency with that. It seemed that UND coaches were banking on that one in fifteen play to get them where they wanted to be.
Sometimes the stats just aren't a reflection of how the games looked. Look at Disterhaupt's first few games this year. He was off to a great start with over 10 tackles per game until he ruined that ankle. The stats looked great, but a lot of those tackles were catching guys from behind 5 or 6 yards down field. That's not where you want to be making tackles. Certainly not knocking his efforts AT ALL, but the defense had issues with that happening even though the "tackles" stat looks good.
Stats only tell part of the story. Look at the time of possession stats this last season, for example.
Anyway, the only stat that really matters is the wins and losses. I can see UND holding the same staff through this coming season . . . but if I see a dive play to Santiago on first down ever again I'll be the first to shoot the OC a glaring look. Maybe even a strongly worded letter

Ha, forgot to add that trees were the sidelines...always ended well
Our out of bounds was the barb wire fence. You'd rather take the hit than run out of bounds, right OLD SCHOOL?!

Yep. That play also showed me how much I’m looking next to a QB that can throw it next year. Teams can afford to stack the box vs us cause that deep throw wasn’t the strength of our QB
Maybe had a bit to do with not being used to a receiver as fast as Izzy, too. That kid has some wheels.

I hadn't watched a game yet this fall, until today.
Maybe I'll try again next season.
