Right now I'd say UND goes 8-3 with loses to NDSU and SDSU. We make the playoffs and either win one or none. Things just keep repeating.
Boise tried hard to lose and still won it. Tons of mistakes by Boise and look how it ended.

Shouldn’t be. Tackler turned sideways as he came in receiver fell into oncoming tackler. Initial contact wasn’t with crown of helmet. Doesn’t matter refs called it.
And now he's out for the first half of the SDSU game too

Boy that was quick

This game reminds of the Wyoming game. We were expected to be competitive but not win and we all know how that went. Plus with that game we had the satisfaction of beating Craig Bohl.

He is. But Wentz is even worse.
I can't imagine any NFL team desperate enough to take Wentz. He's terrible on the field and toxic in the locker room. Not even the Jets will take him.

I didn't realize until yesterday that Waletzko was on IR again. Just can't catch a break.

Early line posted, Boise favored by 12
That shouldn't be hard to overcome that line. We need a little luck and lot of hard playing football. We can do this.

I'm glad to see the season start but I do sorta wish it was a more worthy opponent. This is going to be over by end of the first quarter. 56-3 UND

I'm going to say under because of the holiday weekend and we are playing an uninspiring opponent. Sorry but we're going to hang 50 on these guys. Now when Northern Arizona comes to town things will pick up.

NDSU is starting a corner that didn’t even play for Bowling Green. Interesting
Considering that Hoosman didn't see the field at UNI I'm not sure I want to take much comfort in that.

I disagree. If UND doesn’t make noise against Boise or SDSU, then it’s the same ol’, same ol’ middle of the road Bubba ball.
Again, if UND perpetually beats who they’re supposed to beat and loses against who they’re supposed to lose against, then UND FB will never take the next step, despite 10 years of Bubba ball.Remember, NDSU used to lose almost every year to SDSU during the season and then come out blazing during the playoffs and beat them. That was of course until last year. A loss during the regular season can be overcome.

Depends on extent of injury and subsequent evaluation. Unfortunately, it can become a recurring problem similar to his other shoulder, but he might also be able to do ok. I would guess they will do an MRI and make a decision based on how quickly he can recover. Have to wait and see.
Since Matt's never had much of a career with Dallas I fear it will be very easy for them to cut him and move on if it's going to require surgery.

What if we finish 7-4 and one of the wins is over Boise, NDSU or SDSU. AND this team is good enough to make a run in the playoffs? Might take that scenario too if we actually make a run in the playoffs.
If we win any of those major games and still only finish 7-4 that means we laid an egg against some school like Indiana State or Arizona State. We can't be getting upset against schools like that.

Anything less than 8-3 and it will be a disappointment. We cannot lose to SDSU, NDSU, Boise , UNI and still call it a success. Time to show the MVFC we are here to stay!
I agree. We have to do better than 7-4.

Clearly, we need football games.
I can't wait for the season to start. I really feel this is our year. The schedule is in our favor and we have the horses.

Don't forget the super bowl ring
But Wentz "earned" that ring standing on the sideline. It didn't even look like he was cheering for Philly when they won.

totally caught me off guard with that pic of him wearing gear from all his 3 teams.....assumed he was in camp somewhere....pretty sure he's done.
I'm sure the picture with the gear from his last three gigs is an attempt to show him as a team player and somehow friendly with all three. No one is going to buy it, he'll always be remembered as a bust and being poison in the locker room

I suggest we change the title of this thread to "Carson Wentz taking the unemployment office by storm". I doubt any team is signing him this late and trying to get him to learn their plays. He couldn't play when he had a whole year to figure it out.

UND discussion starts at 11:25, around 14:50. when asked about Weber getting to host over UND, Patty says that there has never been a time when the higher bidding team didn't host. The host suggests that SU's Larsen did nothing to stop Weber from hosting, just to hurt UND, Patty says "Sometimes you shouldn't confuse conspiracy theories with incompetence".
I've always thought Matt Larsen is the biggest slime ball you could find. I heard him on the radio once at halftime, had to listen to the NDSU version of the game because no UND station where I was at the time. He just comes across as something worse than a used car dealer. I'm not surprised Patty calls him incompetent. I'm sure she had other names for him but was too much of lady to use them.

At the bare minimum, I want them to make the playoffs 2 years in a row (which depending on how you count the Spring season) UND has yet to do.
At the bare minimum, I want UND to start a winning streak against USD.
That to me would at lease show SOME growth and some consistency. Going 5-6 again keeping UND in that inconsistency range, which is maddening.
Again, we want more that than, but we do need to have some measures where we need to look and see ok. That is tangable progress.
I feel bare minimum is a bye in the first round followed a win, or if we play the first round we get two wins. We have to start making progress and I'm really hopeful about this year, the stars seem to align. If not this year it may be a long time. We've got the team and the schedule in our favor.

The team did very well last year, but they will need to take another step forward. There is very little room for error. They play South Dakota State, NDSU and Boise St. If those 3 are losses, playoffs chances are going to be very slim. I see UND 3-3 to start the season. I really hope I am wrong, but it is very possible. There is a tough schedule this year. Making the playoffs would say alot about this year's team.
7-4 would still get us into the playoffs. It would be nice to beat either NDSU or SDSU and I feel this year should be our chance.

Recruiting looks good. I've been critical in the past but things are looking up.

2023 Football Season

It would be very UND-like to lose to USD or even UNI and finish 7-4. That is my biggest fear right now
