What good is a deep threat if your QB can't chuck the pigskin?
-
Well here's that quality loss we were looking for.
-
FG good. 27-20 UND. 7 min left.
-
Certainly looks like NDSU needs to join the B10 in football because they have empty seats for the game today.
-
Sometimes Danny tries to go to his bag of tricks too often.
-
They may not be fast, but 11, 31 and 89 are such great weapons with their height.
-
Would be really nice for UND if both RBs for Weber are out for the game. The starter, Davis, for sure is out. The backup looked like dislocated shoulder or maybe collarbone.

Let's get this party started! You can watch via Pluto Channel 535. Or, on watch Big Sky, which often streams better than Pluto: https://bigskyconf.com/sports/2015/11/19/WatchBigSky.aspx Normal radio options on HoE network.

Yes, but if he were able to use that sophomore year as his redshirt, then he could play all the games for the rest of this year and still get next year. Makes it much easier for the coaches.
-
Of course UND is. But there must be other schools that have the same issue who are much bigger. Side note, I'm hearing there's a chance Holm could be back next year regardless. Not sure if that's related to him only playing 4 games this year or if it's related to that Sophomore year. Would be great if he was able to play more than 4 this year and also get that year back.

I may be misinterpreting your post, but it seems you're blaming him for not expressing his concerns earlier to coaches/trainers. While I agree that it could have been helpful, I also think when you get to the upper levels of competitive hockey, there's a stigma to admitting something is wrong and seeking that help. Hell, it's something that has a stigma in everyday life. I think instead of blaming the player, we blame and work to fix the culture of making players feel like they have to hide/play through their problems/injuries. Every year, we hear about guys who play through some horrific types of injuries that would have sidelined a normal person for months. And we applaud the guys for being tough and old-time hockey players. And that's what these kids feel: they need to push through the pain and suffering, even if it's detrimental to the team at times. And especially, even if it's detrimental to their long-term health.

It doesn't apply to Rodgers because he took a redshirt year, but are there any instances where a player could petition the NCAA for an extra year based on the new 4-game redshirt rules? For example, Evan Holm (the only UND player I've found that this applies to). He played as a true freshman in 16-17. 4 games in 17-18. Rule gets passed the following summer. Plays more than 4 in 18-19 and presumably 19-20. Based on rules at the time, that makes him a true senior. But can he petition the NCAA to have that true sophomore year considered as a redshirt year for not exceeding the 4 game limit? Just retroactively applying the 4-game rule. Also, the UND football roster website is horribly inconsistent. Sometimes it list players as a Redshirt Fr/So/Jr/Sr and other times it's just as Fr/So/Jr/Sr even if they took a redshirt year. Made doing this research much more difficult, as I initially thought it could have applied to 3-4 more players.

This thread is quite the stretch to try and make something that's religious into something associated with universities. But, I'll play along. @SiouxVolley, what type of proven science should they be teaching at universities?
-
But how beat up is UND if they have to play another game next week? Potentially, having to win the last 3 of 4 with an injured D line. Before the season I would have preferred UND to play 12 games, but that late-season bye sure seems to be helpful.
-
She is competing within the rules set forth. If you have a problem with it, take it up with the Big Sky.
-
Minnesota Sports Trump is a fantastic follow too
-
They played well against two MWC teams, beat perennial best 5 loss team UNI, and have won the games they should. This week and next should tell us more. If they don't win in blowouts in both, then UND could steal the game.
-
3 games to go. 2 of which should be definite wins.
-
I agree, but we're also looking at first and 10 from the 25 if that PI gets rightfully called. Instead, it's 3rd and 10 from the 40. The offense went a bit too deep into the flea flicker well but those are fun to watch.
-
Great job by the D today to keep those playoff chances a live
-
I'll eat that crow every day of the week
-
Leach gonna hit a 50 yarder for the W
-
He did a jump pass instead of planting his feet. It still went 40 yards, but you gotta set.
-
Great call! And that throw is exhibit a as to why Boltmann isn't the QB
