Absolutely. The 4th and 1 vs NDSU was a huge play in the fall 2021 season. So was the 4th and 2 vs Missouri State.

IMO you are talking about two different things. The short term (2021 fall season), which has laid bare many shortcomings in roster management, game management, play calling and being ready and organized to win football games NOW. Overall recruiting has been pretty good under Bubba as evidenced by the results over the last 3 seasons, Bubba and staff has assembled (for the most part) the "jimmys & joes" to win the MVFC consistently which will always put you in contention for a national championship. I'm far from convinced the "x's and o's" are in place to make that happen. In the medium to long term, the University needs to make the commitment to the football program and get phase 2 under construction ASAP. Once that is complete, UND will have the facilities the premiere facilities it needs to recruit consistently and compete for an FCS championship each year.

This was another game where the defense doesn't show up 'til the second quarter(USD & SIU also) & other than the last 2 drives the offense was terrible most of the game(NDSU, USD, SIU) & another questionable call on a key 4th down(Tommy with a Q draw?). Not sure what to make of this team, seems overall like it is vastly underperforming. I guess that's why it is 4-5.

No question about that comparison, maybe Tom Brady is just a really lucky QB too.

Were you wowed by the UND offensive extravaganza?

Over time there us nothing lucky about results in football. A play or two? Of course, a win or a loss? Maybe. Anything more. Nope.

Yep. It’s really hard to watch at times.

Good comeback .

What are the vegas odds we score more than 20 today? Nope

And then another 1 yard pass.

Hope you are right, feel like a defensive td will need to spark this team.

We can’t score…. And Bubba.

Only 2 more years of the “2 yard pass and a cloud of dust” offense.

Just let the players draw plays up in the huddle. 13 rushes for 63 yards and attempted 14 passes for 68 yards

This offense just sucks . No way to sugar coat it. It sucks.

Brought Q in so we have a qb who can throw it 50 years.

Maybe not . Give him first two series of second half.

Wow. This is hard to watch.

100%. He is not the answer.

That is just bad, bad football.

It’s happened @USD and @SIU…no points. That is awful football.

Just hand the ball to Otis every play …at least we thena have a chance for a play over 5 yards.

This offense is horrible . Can we complete a pass further than 2 yards downfield?

Bingo . Tommy looked right at a covered receptive r and threw it there.. pathetic.

Why do we throw a 0 yard pass? Tommy looked right there. That was awful.
