UND-FB-FAN

I agree. Perhaps not popular among some, but this is the truth. Santiago, as some did predict, is better suited for a flex role at both RB and WR. His shiftiness in the open field is always a positive thing for UND. Now with Izzy Adeoti perhaps missing some time ... Oliveira and J.J. are definitely the two best RBs on the roster and they are damn good. KEEP FEEDING THE BALL TO THEM BETWEEN THE TACKLES, AND ALONG WITH THE SOLID DEFENSIVE PLAY, UND WILL HAVE A CONTINUED FORMULA FOR SUCCESS THIS SEASON.

My God, so embarrassing. This continues to happen over and over again. Someone should lose their job.

Damn. Get healthy, Tobin. Go Hawks!

With UND being 4-2 and coming off a 41-14 blowout win versus ranked Montana, I highly doubt anyone has “fire Bubba” thoughts as the number one thing on their mind. Contemporary DI college football is a fluid process. The good programs rarely, if ever, have losing seasons so I think that’s where the angst originated last season. So far so good in 2018. When coaches are fired, though, you have to weigh the benefit vs the risk. Drastically improving the direction of the program outweighs potentially losing some young men for the first season.

The University of North Dakota should obviously be a place for North Dakota student-athletes. North Dakota kids should have a place to go in UND. We obviously know what happens when we let all of them go to NDSU instead. Hint: it’s not good for UND.

Minnesota, North Dakota, Manitoba ... C’mon guys ....

Don’t overlook the 1st round bye. It’s a good thing and UND should obviously shoot for it. Not having to play a extra game and immediately being one step closer to the National Championship has plenty of positives too. UND absolutely should’ve won in 2016 versus Richmond. But they didn’t. The coaches and players have most likely learned from that collapse and won’t repeat it.

Good pickup. Solid athlete. Most importantly, local and from the state of North Dakota.

Yeah, this needs to improve. I couldn’t care less if the opponent has the ball, but promote quietness when UND has the ball.

210 will remain largely empty then. 210 and 211 for students and 212 for band. That would allow two premium midfield sections to be turned over to paying ticket holders and actually be well filled throughout the duration of the game (not empty in the 4th quarter).

I absolutely agree with this. Well thought out and logical. It would be an improvement and should be implemented as soon as possible.

Paying fans who are more likely to actually attend the game and stay for its entire duration should be awarded mid-field seats. That’s all. Students can still attend games for free and sit in a student section with their peers, just not take prime real estate at mid-field only to leave in the 2nd quarter revealing hundreds of empty seats for the important second half; it just looks bad. It’s what most universities do; nothing new.

Another quality reason why moving the student section should be done full-time (regular season plus postseason).

Been saying that for years. Not sure that reducing the student section size is the answer, although I’d be okay with it, but moving the section away from mid-field is a must in my opinion. Most college football student sections are not situated at the 50 yard line; just reality.

It appears to be the situation ... damn

False accusations everywhere. I assess and am critical of only on-field ability of said 18-22 yr old kids. But yet the guy who makes blind personal statements regarding inappropriate sexual activity is commended? I’m not taking a step back at all. Many of you on here are severely lost.

Stay classy. Wow.

You’re defending a guy who stated the hockey team “ran a train on my girlfriend back in the day” and that makes me bipolar? There certainly is a few errors in your logic, I’m afraid.

Oh calm down. Bunch of drama queens on here always being so damn dramatic. Enjoy the wins and the season.

UND ice hockey is disgusting, as are you. Notice the similarities?

What the ... ? There are therapy programs specifically designed for individuals like you. I recommend you enroll in one immediately.

Amen

I was very discouraged by Blublaugh’s play last season. Anyone who watched the games should’ve been concerned also. He definitely has improved tons since then and is now playing great ball. His confidence is in a good place too. He isn’t a starter yet as Harris and Holm have those spots, so will still have to wait for his junior season to be really convinced, but he’s definitely on the right track.

Good player, great student-athlete. Former walk-on. Best wishes to this young man. Always hurts to lose a senior.

I liked the 4th down and short call in the red zone. Showed aggression in the second half while still up 34-0. Went with full house backfield with all three backs (Santiago, Oliveira, and Johannesson) and went with play action pass; good call just needed to be executed better.
