I agree, but remember when the schedule is made the AD's pick "power" teams from the previous year, and as NDSU and many other schools have found out, if you schedule a Ranked team from the year before they may turn out to be a flop. UND's 08 schedule is what I think is expected for a transition team, and everyone beats down Southern Utah, they may very well turn it around this year or next and be a very powerfull team (their 07 schedule was brutal and they nearly took a couple of those). I do not agree with the everyone is scared to play us card, thats just dumb. Good luck! everything will change in 09.

Exactly It will be here and gone before you know it. Good Luck

I doubt any team is Scared to play you! I would have to think its more of a Don't count as a DI sort deal and Western Illinois is poised to make a playoff run in the Gateway and doesn't need a DII win or loss keeping them from the playoffs. Once UND counts as a DI opponent I don't think you'll have a hard time finding teams, and once the GWFC gets both USD and UND into the full schedule.

Dale has gone to a Very good FCS school, I wish he would have stayed at UND to Build a Program thru the Transition, but this may also open the door for an up and coming coach to shine!! Not to bring it up as smack, but Bohl has done well, and this same scenario could just as easy play out for you guys. Good Luck!!
