UNDvince97-01

Ok, you're crazy.

Just another 'ho-hum' list for this year's 'Sioux Award'. I'm always amazed at the UND alums and what they have accomplished when I read their bios. It's just the UND way. Congrats to all the recipients. They all are more than well-deserved.

Especially when they play with the lack of heart and effort that they showed on Saturday. I'm embarrassed for them if they can honestly say that was their best effort. I saw otherwise. They did not play with any sense of UND pride in Cheney from the 2nd quarter on. You can always tell the mental makeup and character of players and/or a team when things are at their worst and true colors come out in those situations more often than not. I did not like what I saw from our players on Saturday - specifically the defense. They were NOT pissed to be getting beat so bad in the 3rd quarter and that is a huge problem and concern in my eyes. I'm not sure that ANY of UND's great football teams have EVER - and I do mean EVER - been the most talented teams in the country, but character, heart, pride and effort have always been the difference-makers with most of those teams. While talent level may be an issue at certain times at certain positions, I have WAY MORE concern right now about the rest of the player's attributes I mentioned. Once again, this is just my opinion.

Really? Shows your true colors I guess. Bye.

BECAUSE THOSE SCHOOLS DID IT ON THEIR OWN!!! THEIR CONFERENCE DIDN'T STEP IN AND FORCE THEM TO!!! Got it now?.... (beats own head into wall)

Oh, I've 'caught on' Johnboy... Real creative. I'm sure it will do wonders for The Summit and it's image. You can't polish turds, John - regardless of what some freshman 101 classes at ndsu will tell you.

So did Bin... That and the fact that their conference is insisting its member schools change their names to be more recognizable. It's absolutely hilarious. You cannot make it up.

uh huh....

You are like a fart in church.

FYP.

Speaking of image problems, good luck in the Mid-Continent/Gateway/Summit/Missouri Valley Football Conference this year! GO FU!!!

He had a gun held to each side of his head by...... Chris Mussman and Brian Faison.

The NC$$ changed our NICKNAME. The Summit League changed the SCHOOL NAMES of their member institutions. Who does Fargo University play this week? UV?

That one is going to stick. At least for me, anyways.

In my opinion, Marcus played very average last night. He overthrew receivers and still seems incapable of throwing that high-arcing "3-ball" on "8" and "9" routes. His feet saved us on a few occasions, but I also think he got some happy feet at times. I agree, there still isn't a QB controversy. I still love Marcus, but if Braden is 100%, he should start. The offense is better with him. IMO.

8-3 gets us in for sure.

I'm watching both games right now... at the same time.

My bad!!...

2013 Non-Conference Schedule, all at The Alerus... Week 1 Valpo Week 2 South Dakota State Week 3 Montana We want it, we got it!

OK.....last post on this.... All I'm saying is that when they played each other then, the schedule and making the playoffs and hosting D2 games then was as difficult as it is now in FCS. It's all relative. ndsu is scared to lose a game that hurts their playoff chances and home field chances. That's why they won't schedule UND. Oh yeah I forgot, and finances......and marketing strategy.....

This is hilarious: http://www.grandforksherald.com/event/article/id/245445/group/Sports/ Apparently the conference and its membership are embarrassed by a few names of some schools, so they felt a name change was necessary. "Fargo"......"Brookings"....."Vermilion"..... Love the Big Sky.

Really? I specifically cited the NCC, when they were both in the same conference. Back to your Reading Comp 101 course in the quonset...

Good morning everyone.... It's Saturday morning on September 22nd and the Big Sky is finally here.... Never thought this day would come soon enough. Enjoy.

THIS ^^^^^^ And it would hurt their chances of hosting home playoff games. But the NCC was always an easy road to the playoffs and UND vs ndsu NEVER had playoff and home field ramifications year in and year out.
