At home, UND should be able to score plenty against their porous defense and get plenty of defensive pressure on NAU's QB. No reason to be scared of that game at this point.
-
I agree. It's very difficult to watch.
-
You have to start somewhere. What did NDSU hosting that first playoff game do for them moving forward? Looking big picture, hosting playoff games and winning those playoff games can grow fan support by a bunch.
-
You are right. I should have specified as a second round matchup. Last year the MVFC all ended up on the same side of the bracket which caused a huge uproar. If UND wins out and goes 9-2 (8-0), I think they have an outside chance at one of the last ranked seed (#7 or #8). Depends on what other BSC teams, like Montana and EWU, end up doing record-wise.
-
I'd rather take Montana at their place than NDSU in Fargo, but it is almost a toss-up.
-
With that said, I could see a UND @ Montana first round playoff game this season. Nevertheless, I hope UND can pull out a top 8 seed or, at the very least, can host a first round game in the Alerus Center. Hosting playoff games has the potential to grow fan support tremendously.
-
I don't think so, based on how the attendance has been going. The Cal Poly game had over 10,000 attendees despite beet harvest costing attendance quite a bit. I expect at least 10,000 again for the SUU game and possibly over 11,000. Remember, it's homecoming and UND has won 4 in a row.
-
Outdoor venue during November and December doesn't help, I'd imagine.
-
UND could outbid SDSU -- no use being so pessimistic with nothing to go off of but pure speculation. UND put in a very healthy bid last season while SDSU was outbid by Montana.
-
Man, something of dreams that would be! Would be tremendous.
-
UND took care of business like we expect a well-run UND team to do to a team like Sac State - congrats Bubba and team! Now into a big one at the Alerus for homecoming! Pack the place and let's be loud for the defense! SUU is no slouch; they are having a good season too.
-
40-7 Final Impressive final score but still a lot of things for this team to work on (ball security, punt return, passing game, etc.) I now await the word on the health of several key players. Big one next week against Southern Utah for homecoming. Pack the Alerus and be loud! UND is 3 - 0 in conference play!
-
Sloppy 2nd half for offense. Not good.
-
And now Reyes is hurt. Bad bad luck. Damn. Have to question why these players still playing.
-
Now Stockwell is injured. Hope for the best.
-
Oliveira needs to learn how to hold onto the damn ball. That holds him back from getting a ton of carries if UND has options. He fumbled in the redzone last week.
-
I agree. Let him rest it up some and give Gordon 10-15 carries in 2nd half.
-
Damn. Injuries keep piling up for offensive line. Good thing is Patric Rooney should be available next week vs SUU.
-
27-0 UND. Well, so far, I absolutely commend Bubba and this UND football team for going out there and getting to work. Still a half of football left, and UND absolutely should be doing this to Sacramento State in terms of talent differential, but it's great to see the team come out and get the job done. Leave No Doubt
-
Dumb dumb dumb play. He did the same damn thing last year versus Idaho state. UND can't do this stupid crap if they want to be a playoff team.
-
No talk. Sacramento State football is a dead thing of late, largely due to the program's ineptitude. Just another reason the hawks CANNOT lose this game - it would crush their playoff hopes like last year's Idaho State loss.
-
I agree completely. If UND wants to be a playoff team THIS SEASON (no more excuses and postponements), they need to go on the road and handily beat this team. I understand and respect Bubba's mentality of playing conservative offensively and just getting wins, but style points do count for something when you have committees selecting playoff teams and not a numeric system.
-
31-13 good guys
-
He's already cleared and playing. He returned last Saturday against Cal Poly, and yes, he resumed punt return duties.
-
Very true. Strength and conditioning coaching is very competitive nowadays in college athletics, particularly football, but there's nothing to suggest Baukol and UND's S&C crew aren't capable.
