UND heads out west to face Pacific. KenPom has UND at 244 and Pacific at 219 and predicts an outcome of 79-74, Pacific. Would be huge to go out there and snag a W, they absolutely boat raced us last year at the Betty.

Weddings during football season should be illegal.

The most frustrating thing about our offense for me is that it is fully capable of being elite.

And I don’t disagree that he deserves blame there. There’s more to being the head coach than X’s and O’s though. I guess I just feel like he will likely be the next head coach if Bubba is ever to step away and I will be good with that. I know others desperately want outside the UND circle but I don’t think it HAS to be that way. I’d be fine if it is but it doesn’t have to be in order for it to succeed. We did it with basketball and half the people complaining on the football pages about UND hires also hate Sather so idk.

I would agree. Even with the frustrating last few weeks, I think Danny can be a really good head coach. He just has that moxie about him.

I’m saying the new standard is dumb. I’m not blaming UND at all, it’s bigger than just them.

If he loves UND as much as he says he does….

Well in @SWSiouxMN absence figured I would start this. Don’t have any commentary to add about the opponent, just that this should be a blowout. This game counts for us but is an exhibition for them. Now what I do want to talk about is how the NCAA needs to fix this scheduling or the mid-majors need to come together to help each other out. We have 3 non-D1 games on the schedule and that’s not including the exhibition game. This isn’t just a UND problem either. NDSU has 3, SDSU has 3 and USD has 3. So seems pretty standard, I just don’t think it should be. They’ve added the Big Sky/Summit challenge so that helps with 1 game. Pair up with the MAC or something for another game or 2. I don’t know exactly how to fix it but I personally don’t want to go to the Betty 3+ times to watch some D2 or NAIA program.

2. Drake and WIU. That guy STUNK

I hated that I argued he deserved the freshman of the year over Zeke.

Watching USD-DePaul right now and I just want to say Paul Bruns has regressed since being here. Now maybe he just wasn’t that good and had the volume stats because of how bad that team was that he was on. His brother looks better than him right now.

I’ve been a Tommy backer most of his career and I still think the guy is a good FCS QB (at least at home) but for this boards sanity, my sanity, everyone’s sanity, I really hope he doesn’t use his Covid year. It’s time for new blood and I wish Tommy the best, he will be in our record books for a long time.

Can you elaborate on what he said?

Might be a combination of the opener and the opponent but it’s very funny seeing the activity of a thread for a win vs an L.

All fair. I do think Mara could end up being a bit of a 3 point shooter. His shot isn’t bad.

That’s true. Both don’t really jump.

Very comparable.

Jump shot is rough for sure. He provides some good defense and good getting to the rim. I feel like he might be better off the ball. Eaglestaff had some real nice vision today. Don’t mind Brooks with the ball either.

I think the band must be planning on sitting there.

I don’t mind the idea of the new stands but it’s baffling how far away they are. Doesn’t make sense.

#3 is a problem.

He’s going to the NFL

I want someone that wants to elevate their career. I’m not saying a 2 year stay and gone for some low level FBS coordinator but if our coach gets poached to be an FBS head coach, that likely means things were going well.

Our defense is playing opportunistic, that’s great but USD is still moving the ball. Gotta keep attacking.
