We need to shine a light on what is obviously a lack of priority and an inbalance of support. I know we get criticized for comparing any sport to hockey but UND has the resources to support them all. Hockey has The Ralph staff and resources fully focused on them. It shows in the game day atmosphere. Football at The Alerius basically means they open the doors and look for revenue sources from the fans. The football entrance is a prime example, it is actually less than it was a few years ago. Who could defend that? They had a year to create something and obviously no one cared. They have two weeks to address it, history shows they probably won't and if asked would just have excuses. Something is better than nothing which is what we have now. We have top level facilities and a bush league game day experience.

Couple of thoughts: I think the reason they started the fireworks so guickly was in respect to families with young children, they were probably already dragging around 7:30 p.m. The reality is that is who they were for - we've all seen our share of fireworks. I'll give a pass to those leaving earlyl since it was a night game. I am fine with UND having this early in the season as it allows people to get things done during the day. One game is no measure but no way the QB race was "razor thin". However am satisfied with what JTJ can mature into and Simon is a winner/leader. Easy to run your QB when you have back ups that can step in. What's the deal with our struggle to sack the QB? However, we did have a lot of QB hurries which aren't as exciting and can go unnoticed.

You're joking right?

Mike on the radio broadcast pointed it out. As has been said if it was an issue we can rest assured it's been addressed by this staff.

Sitting at #15-16 for a few weeks will be fine. Last year we peaked at #10 I believe. Having only lost 3-4 games at home over the past dozen years if we lose this game we don't deserve to be in the top 25 for the rest of the year - THAT AIN"T GONNA HAPPEN :)!

Tailgating opens at 11 a.m. for a 6 p.m. game - really sets the table for a loud fan base. Imagine the size of the garbage pile in the student section (right next to the dumpsters.)

Yes and that's when the announcers shared that JTJ was scrambling to find his helmet.

Little insights: That missed interception in the endzone for huge- instead of having the ball they got the points that ended up being the difference. Announcers said JTJ couldn't find his helmet when Jerry had to come off - hoping there was a good reason, otherwise it smells like a guy that was not engaged in the game from the sidelines. Positive was the OC called a pass play on that one, instead of just running it up the gut. and JTJ made the play. Speaks of JTJ being able to make a play cold off the bench. Having a terrible third quarter and responding in the fourth. Shows we weren't gassed, in the past that is when FBS teams have run away from us. Gotta say it again - the season goes the way our OL and DL go.

Optimism is what we need to get the bandwagon fans back in the building. We should have a big house for the home opener and we "should" beat PSU handily and if we do that will drive attendance for awhile. Playing meaningful games in November is what this team has to work toward The cupboard was not bare from last season plus a different tone in the locker room - good things can happen.

With the new staff I'm hoping the philosophy changes and we see our back up QB more often when the situation calls for it. I'm still hoping they have put together some plays to get Romfro on the field in a Brockstar fashion.

Now this guy (Zach) has done his homework and has some solid insights. UND was just a few plays away from 7-5. We deserve to start in the lower top 25 - we have to prove we belong much higher.

Sold Selling two tickets to five of the UND home football games (The NSDU game is not included) They are in 2026. Section 215 Row Z (2 seats) right around the 35 yard line in the middle of the upper level.

Never played in a game, you can bet the hammer came down hard on him.

Troll-hit wonder - you won't even be active on this site at the end of the season.

Z has had durability issues so perhaps they want to see quality over quantity from him.
