Go Hawks

Hope to see another reaction like this from the Griz at the end of the game this weekend. UND needs to be ready for a hard-fought game. Bubba and his staff need to put in the work and get the team to be ready for a tough one. GO HAWKS, GET THE WIN!

I don’t disparage hard working people that have those jobs, I disparage you given your criticism directed at my life, which you know nothing about. Blind disparaging is somehow appropriate? Nice try at deflection though. Your only hope at this point is political correctness, so I give you credit for looking that direction.

Not sure football is where he will end up. Basketball and baseball in the cards as well.

Just realism after this weekend’s clunkers from Montana and Weber.

Nice personal rip [sarcasm]. Get back to the till and pay attention for customers, it’s Monday morning

Right, NFL isn’t popular overseas ... Get with the times old-timer!

If Idaho State keeps up their impressive season, Sam Houston State continues to get back on track, and most importantly UND wins out with the only "tough" games being at home in the Alerus, then things will shape out nicely for a home playoff game in the Alerus Center.

The numbers cannot be ignored. Football is where the real potential is. GO UND FIGHTING HAWKS FOOTBALL!

I appreciate quality sports, not niche ones, but I do understand reality has to be embraced sometimes. Hockey, REA, and Grand Forks dynamic is what it is.

Montana just lost to Portland State at home. UND is coming off a open week with both rest and preparation for the Griz. UND now plays Montana at home in Grand Forks, ND, at the Alerus Center. It should be damn obvious to anyone with a football brain that UND needs to win this home game. A UND loss can only be followed with discussion on who for UND should lose their job. Prepare, Work, Play, Win. Get it done, Hawks.

I don’t care how world class the facility or scoreboard is if the sport played in the facility isn’t world class itself. Upper Upper Northern Hemisphere class maybe? But hey, priorities ...

Great excuse for UND fans if UND plays like sh*t on October 13th? UND better go 6-0 to finish the season if they’re worth a damn. This Big Sky Conference is horsesh*t. UND needs to win out. Thank God for the move to the Missouri Valley. UND needs to play with the big boys to toughen up. Nice to see Idaho State look like the real deal though.

One must drink excessively to watch and tolerate the “sport” of ice and a puck (aka hockey). Hooray for alcohol in the REA!

Taking away players from an offense that already is anemic as can be would not be a good idea. If anything, the UND offense should gain players from the defensive side of the ball.

Oh I’m sure UND hockey will have a specific show because, well, Grand Forks and this region is screwed up when to comes to priorities.

The point made is still fair. Oliveira and Johannesson have the body types and running styles to be more “traditional” backs which obviously fits better with Rudolph’s “traditional” offense. Santiago is awesome when breaking big runs out in the open but leaves much more to be desired when running up the gut in a crowd (which Rudolph calls often). This is why everyone on here has called for Santiago to be used out wide some with #5 or #33 in the backfield. Santiago’s body type and ability could be better utilized with this.

RT and UND f’d up in 2003. No protective argument from me.

If UND loses to both Montana and Weber State at home at the Alerus Center then UND doesn’t deserve to be in the playoffs. Period. If UND somehow got in after that, UND would just get blown out in the first round. You know, these records are meant to show you deserve to be in the postseason. At 7-4 UND wouldn’t deserve to be in the postseason in my opinion. The 2015 7-4 situation was different as it had “quality wins” but also had “bad loses”. So far UND’s only potential “bad loss” is Idaho State, but so far so good.

7-4 ain’t sh*t win ‘em all Hawks

If UND really wants to jump up in the polls, Weber State in the Alerus Center would be the game to win. Win out I say ... 9-2 would look nice. Montana next up though. One game at a time.

Amen!!!

It appears we can't win at the Alerus Center. So much for home field advantage. Maybe UND should just schedule every game on the road?

What’s funny is NDSU (when Bohl was HC) had losing seasons before finally striking it big in 2011. Point being a single big recruiting class can make the difference. Now, after years of winning, NDSU simply has better players than their opponents. Their coaches aren’t slouches though. UND has some deficiency at both coaching and player levels. Just like NDSU in 2011, though, a single talented recruiting class at UND could change the trajectory for years to come.

I like the Fighting Hawks. I like the logo. I like the mascot. I think Grand Forks hockey is overrated. Go UND
