Nice accurate pass by keaton

Maybe reyes can get a pick 6 for us or something.

Def did it's job. Get some pts and get back in the game.

This is painful early

Maybe were trying to wear out their offense?

Wow, for how well this team finished last season, particularly on offense they have looked like dog !#@& to start the season

Still not a fan of how Rudolph calls these plays.

Agreed, play to win, not to keep it close. Go Sioux!

Looking like some rain. Hopefully the lighting can stay away so we don't see delays in the game.

Does anyone know if the marching band is making the trip? I know they used to try to make a trip a year back when I was in school, if so I would think this would be a good one.

We need to turn some things around this week to get our second straight FBS win. First and foremost is to establish our run game to sustain drives, wear down the defense and control the clock. Best approach from limiting their passing offense is to keep them off of the field. I think our front 7 will keep their run game in check, but they are certainly a threat through the air. This is a very different team from last season, with a new coach and a ton of turnover, especially on offense. If anyone watched their bowl game last year, they got absolutely torched on the ground by Georgia Southern. If Santiago can get going, and the rest of the stable can wear down the D, UND can definitely get in the win column. Keaton does not have to win this game for us, or pass for 300 yards, but he does need to be more effective, and make costly mistakes. Last I heard there was about a 60% chance of rain and windy in the forecast, which could definitely play into our favor a bit; that being said Weather isn't going to actually win or lose the game for you. I'm taking my squad to bounce back and Santiago to get going. 31-24 Fighting Sioux! Go get em boys! Not really going out on a limb here, but I'm banking on Reyes having a big game. If Knapke is as inaccurate as last week, our boys need to step up and force some turnovers.

Enjoy the game, Go Sioux!

It is also on America Sports Network, which is probably what you are seeing in your Cable lineup.

fingers crossed for the kid. He deserves one full season here, and UND could definitely use him.

After seeing the replay, I'm going to go ahead and back peddle on my comments on Clive. That all happened so fast, and watching the replay on UND Sports Extra was much more clear. I think Clive probably figured he was already down when he started stretching out a bit. Just an unfortunate spot for the kid to be in. Nice tackle by the D, but Clive really just got pulled on top of the defender and put in a bad spot. Definitely a little different than I remember seeing it the first time around. Also seeing he lower leg bend and wiggle like that was disgusting. Can't imagine the pain. Anyone know if he will have a chance for a medical reshirt? Or if they will even apply for one?

I ripped a phone book in half .... jk, who has phone books anymore

Anyone know where the updated 2 deep is listed?

Yeah, for how hyped up Dulin was as a recruit and while he was redshirting, I was hoping to hear more about him getting into the mix. I know he had some issues with drops, but does anyone else know whats going on with him? Is there a work ethic thing, in terms of getting better? Or is he just not there yet? Obviously the kid is young, and there is a learning curve at this level so I don't want to come across as though I'm throwing in the towel on this kid; I'm not. Just curious if anyone knows how he is progressing.

Does anyone know when the Men's basketball schedule usually comes out? Just curious to see who we get this year.

This works for me. I agree the team needs to think with that mentality, but as fans, there was no doubt watching the SBU game that our lack of offense was at least partially due to them being good on the defensive side of the ball. Regardless, I think we turn it around this week and play a more fluid game. Can't have so many 3 and outs, have to find a way to sustain drives, run the ball, and wear them down. For those who are concerned about their offense (which they DID NOT show last weekend), the best way to eliminate that threat is to keep them off the field. Run the ball, Wear them down, Control the clock. Can't wait for Saturday!

Agreed, O-Line is key ... but I have to believe they will play better against Bowling Green. SB had a tremendous defense, and we had to shake off some rust. I think these guys will continue to gel and get better throughout the season, but hopefully we see a nice improvement this week. Have to sustain drives and wear down their defense. If we establish our running game in the first have, they will be good and tired by the second half. Can't wait for the game. Go Sioux!

Yep, that's who I was thinking of.

Agreed! Run Run Run Should hopefully limit their passing game too! Regardless, we just need to play North Dakota football and get back to what we were doing last year.

I'm starting to get really pumped for the season to start. Can't believe hockey is almost back!
