Our O line is among the best - yet we can't pick up 3 yards when we need it. We finally have a QB - yet we were below 50% completion with some game changing wide open opportunities. Kicker gives us no confidence. A miss and a doink PAT? Please. In-game coaching decisions have been odd to say the least. Perhaps we go for it because we have no faith in our kicking? Go back to the top of the list and repeat. I bought into and also hyped up the excitement to start the season, and don't give me bandwagon BS because I've been doing UND football for 30 years and will continue to do it. But I'm pretty pissed that everything has changed but nothing has changed. It seems we find ourselves in a very similar spot that we were a year ago (although we had more wins at this point - including Montana). Hopefully the next week cupcake allows the team to figure their $hit out before we get to the grind. I knew this game would paint a good picture of who we are as a team. We're good. We can't finish. We have talent. We make stupid mistakes. We can still be a contender if we get our collecting poop in a group. What are they prepared to do? We'll see....

CWU had over 300 yards of offense against the Griz last week, had 21 first downs, and led time of possession (although Montana scored twice in a bout 2 minutes on a couple drives in the second half... they don't need a lot of time, perhaps?). Anyway, if we can't better CWU's stats, I'll be disappointed. I think our O-line vs. their D-line supports UND, while the flip side supports Montaynya. Special teams may be a deciding factor and I'm still pi$$ed we failed on two FGA last week. I flip a coin on this one - we just don't know what we don't know at this early stage of the season. All things considered, I think it will be a good football game between two good teams; both who will learn a lot about themselves and what the rest of the 2025 season holds. Is it okay to skip a wedding to watch UND football? I say yes... not missing this one!

How about the team focuses on the game, the job at hand, and what they're there for. I want to see intensity and focus. If I want to interact with the team I'll watch the "hawk walk" or attend one of the media/ fan events. The team can control the game experience, excitement, and atmosphere by doing their jobs on the field. I don't need or want them glad handing the crowd like a bunch of clowns. Once they're in the building it better be about winning. Period.

Im not as happy with this blowout as I thought I'd be. Our depth (lack) will haunt us. Army getting a road win against K state on the road is making sense.

Looks like the uncle that got a little drunk at the wedding reception and tried to clean up right before family pictures. Let's go, Uncle Ike.

So sick of the "we played with heart" and "awe shucks" bullsh!t from Bubba. You got basically shut out for the second game this season. It was there and you pissed another one down your leg. And if Danny is truly the heir apparent that people say he is, then we have more trouble coming. It was there for the taking. Dumb luck happened for you. And you couldn't do a damn thing. So tired of it. And Tommy can take his record and move the F on next year too.

This UND offense is brutal.

Fact. No reason we don't enter the second half with a lead. This is disgusting.

LEARN HOW TO COUNT YOU EFFIN IDIOTS!!!

Gross.

What's needed at the Alerus? Less UND fans using their tailgate spots for "good parking". Honestly - looks more like a friggin parking lot than a tailgate village in many areas. Cool - you have 6 reserved tailgating spots. When you use 4 of them for your cars so Junior can save $15 on parking it brings the whole atmosphere down a notch. We can do better.

We'll wait for an announcement, I guess - or else he was out of town and just now heard about Hergal. Who - by the way - was pretty much a punk. A talented punk without question, but a punk nonetheless. Many knew this, and his latest actions proved it to everyone else. I'm not sad. To the contrary, I'm jacked that we get a home playoff game. Libations in hand, the wife by my side cheering on our favorite team, and comfortable indoor football on a crappy weather Saturday. A victory will be icing on a delicious cake. One game gets another - Go Sioux - errr - Hawks!

Hall areas, yes on the masks - in seats, I'd say 50-50 during game with people eating and drinking. Seats area spaced and "non-sold" seats are taped off. You are socially distanced by your reserved seating arrangement. Today we were high-fiving each other from across the distanced seats when the game got really exciting. We loved it, but that environment may not be the best for you if you have concerns. As other said, wear your own mask and keep your distance from others if you think it is unsafe. Or watch on tv. You do you. Watch football. Be happy.

I don't think that's the case. This student athlete participated in a number of protests, and many, like me, don't really give a damn. Go for it. But when you are wearing the UND hockey jersey, you are no longer representing yourself. You aren't an individual any longer. You are part of the team - the team's actions, the team's values, the team's goals. Putting your personal need for protest above that is where I have the issue.

GF area legislator was on the line - sorry can't remember the name. Legislators are in Bismarck for orientation/ organization session. Apparently lots of "chatter in the hallways" on the topic (as well as the similar 'SU incident). One comment heard by the caller was that higher ed is already over-funded. He implied that this incident could possibly initiate talks regarding future funding. Obviously, no decisions, just chatter. But serious chatter by people that actually hold some cards.

We've seen this over and over again. If they say anything to oppose the protest they'll be "racist". So - they'll say nothing.

BS. I need to offer nothing to these protesters. It's not up to me to find a way for them to express their ideology without having them crap on well established traditions regarding the national anthem. That's on them, and so is this entire kerfuffle.

I have four each night in the lower bowl in the 5th row. See my post in this forum. Thanks.

I watched Saturday's game without the benefit of tailgating and was stone sober. That clarity was regrettably eye-opening. Does the lack of discipline remind anyone else of the final Mussman year(s)? That's not a good sign.

The Dahl stall just keeps going. Incredible.
