Irvin-Sills needs a breakout type of week. Not saying he has been bad, but I would like to see a really noticeable game by him.

Sounds like Taj Rich is out for the rest of the season.

Had a coach in HS tell me, Polls are for Trolls. They're fun for fans and the media, but ultimately wins and losses are what matter.

Won't be able to make the trip up from Minneapolis, but I'll have my green on. Can't wait to watch!

This is a must win game. A team moving in the direction of this team cannot afford to lose a game and take a step back. One game at a time, but this team does have a nice opportunity to make big strides over the next two week with two winnable games. I know we're not there yet, but there is a legit possibility we could be 6-1 heading into MT. That would not have even been a conversation at the beginning of the season. Anyway, time to focus on Idaho St. Between a winning 4-1 program and homecoming, I am hoping the Alerus will be nice an crowded on Saturday. Get the run game going, and keep the defense fresh. Pretty pumped for Saturday!

I guess people still think UND has a lot to prove. Which we do. But with that same mentality, you wonder how Portland St was ever ranked as high as they were.

Love that our team is looking so improved. We still have a long ways to go, but it is great that it is Monday morning and I'm already looking forward to Saturday because of UND Football.

Is Massey what the ranking go off of, or is that the coaches poll?

The Bemidji game would surprise me. I live in Mpls and we get alot of their games on this tptMN channel. Not sure what the schedule looks like, but I'm crossing my fingers.

With all of the QB chatter, and comparisons of QBs over the years, I'm interested to hear opinions on this comparison. Studrud to Bowenkamp? Obviously different style QBs, but which would you rather have playing. Not trying to knock anyone, just a hypothetical. I remember Bowenkamp being really good, but he didn't play the same level of competition. Thoughts???

Get will Ratelle to work with him, hard work and the right diet and the kid could fill out nicely.

There is the one kid, I think from Red Wing, MN, who sounds like he could be a stud. Next year will be fun, but I'm all about our 4-1 squad at the moment.

While I don't believe Studsrud is the best quarterback on the team, I think he has done well with limited skills. Meaning I don't think he is the best passer, and it isn't even close, but he has definitely contributed nicely to the run game. I do expect him to improve his passing game throughout the year. If he can't progress over the next few games, I have bigger concerns. We need to remember, he is young, and didn't have much experience from last year. He is very much a game manager type quarterback, and will probably never dominate the game, but his role is still important and he needs to step up when needed. He did have a few passes today, where I thought, "If he could only do that consistently!". That being said, even a competent passing game (just a mild threat) would open up our offense (and our run game) so much. Regardless, we are 4-1 and coming home to Idaho St. Now I don't care who we are playing, we need to keep our foot on the gas and take care of business. Playoffs are a legitimate conversation right now, but only if we keep playing UND football. Great time, and fun to watch. Go Sioux!

Boom!

Bahaha, just bored and kids are sleeping. Fun to get the thread started. Glad I can be talented at something ...

Will Jost be here next fall? Chances that Jost and Boeser will be here at the same time? Would be pretty crazy to have that kind of talent!

Boom! Big win against a ranked Portland St. on the road. Time to come home and take care of business against Idaho St. Let keep rolling boys! # BubbaBall Cory Hollowell and Teck Holmes

I'm not one to really care about ranking, but I would say they have earned it at this point, and if not ... who cares. Still 4-1 and coming home.

Ridiculous, gotta get a TD. Keaton needs to pull the trigger faster.

agreed, need to capitalize on some of these opportunities though. I'm still shaking my head at throwing on 3rd and 3,then settling for a field goal.

Are we sure he wasn't down?

would be big
