    Extremely interesting times if the team loses on Saturday and misses the playoffs.  Chaves will have to make some kind of comment to the media as the pitchforks will be out after a 6-5 season.

    Conversely - if we win and make the playoffs?

    That’s how I interpreted it. So, apparently officials are the reason UND offense shut down? 
     

    Honestly, this makes Bubba and Freund look worse. Even more reason UND should have been running the ball more …..

    A lot of complaining on here that Bubba just accepts the bad calls and never reacts. 

    I think this is his way of getting the narrative out there and maybe impact the next time we have that crew or play USD.  I don't have a problem with that at all.  Hopefully combine it with some video to the league office.

    I was there for the USD blow out in 2017 I'll be there this year. If it's the same layout they have a nice mowed field for day-of tailgating and there was a good number of UND fans. The odds are against us, but that is why they play the game. 

    I was on work trip to Beijing during the 2017 game. Woke up at 3 am  local time and found the gamecast on ESPN.   Also had texts from my wife saying don’t bother with the game. Shut it down quickly when I saw how bad it was going and went back to sleep

    Then don’t come on here and read it. Not too hard of a concept, really. 
     

    You do know the whole point of this forum is to talk about UND sports and say your opinions right???

    Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.............................

    Have you tried to think beyond that. It’s because the program never changes. Your grandstanding beating 2-6 Murray State. Okay. 

    Same mediocre program that can’t win on the road, can’t win playoff games, etc.

    Why would my narrative change when the program doesn’t change. 
     

    No confidence that UND can beat @USD or win a road playoff game; no confidence back in 2014 (Bubba’s first season) and no confidence now in 2023. But I sure do hope it happens because I do believe in miracles/upsets. 

     

    We all get your point. It’s just frustrating to see you post the same thing constantly.  You posted  the same thing 4 times within 5 minutes. Not even saying your opinion is wrong. Just tired of seeing it over and over and over.

    Not too challenging of a concept. 
    -Bubba under contract until 2025

    - UND is awful on the road and has one 1 playoff game in the past 10 years of Bubba being head coach. 

    -UND defense in 2023 is bad. 

    -Danny Freund is associate head coach and OC. He is next in-line for HC job if Bubba were to leave before his contract expires (or even if contract expires) and ask that job go to current staff member. 
     

    - ultimately, I agree an open competition (job opening) would be the best for UND football, but would that happen with Chaves given the above? Chaves extended Bubba Schweigert in 2021 despite going 5-6 and the team had not shown substantial improvement since. 1 playoff appearance, only 1 playoff win in an asterisk season of 2020 (spring 2021 COVID season where several programs weren’t participating and several games were canceled). To be enamored with the current (and previous decade plus) leadership is impossible unless you’re significantly biased or misinformed. 
     

    - UND football needs new leadership if you want to see UND be a true national championship contender. 

    We need to win on the road and we won today to go to 6-3 and your narrative never changes. 
     

    Ad nauseam.

    Carson will be just fine while his haters still go to work. More time with family and of course out in the field hunting. Pretty good life I’d say 

    Yep.  Never cheered for him only because he was a Bison but he has done very well for himself with $128,660,396 in career earnings.  He'll be just fine.

  8. Lots of negatives today.  As bad as we played we had the game in hand twice in the 4th quarter and peed it down our leg. 

    -7 minutes left, up 11 facing 2nd and 8 on their 32 and they had only 1 timeout left.  If we even just run the ball twice we get the clock down to under 5:30 and if nothing else make them go the length of the field and eat clock.  Instead, we give up a pick and big play for a TD.

    - we then get the TD back and go up 11 again with 4:37 left.  Then give up big plays again and they score in 27 seconds.  

    The positives were the way we made the plays in the last 47 seconds to tie and again to score a TD in OT.   Tommy was incredible on those drives.  Keeping plays alive with his feet and making solid throws.  The FG to send it into OT was a big time play.  Very happy for Elrichs.  That is a tough spot for a kid to make his first FG and also has only had the job for a few weeks.

    I was at that game.  It was crazy

    Same here. Saw the absolute worst and best of this team. 
    No way we can kick away that lead.  No way we can come back in last 47 seconds. 
    tommy was clutch on last drive and in OT.

    Doesn't matter they filed for it first or whatever. I agree though......does suck! 

    Back then we had agreement with them that we could use it if also had North Dakota or Sioux or something also on item.  Both sides wished to avoid lawsuit. Something obvi changed.
