We are 2-1 coming off a road win against a top 5 team. Our one loss is to a top 10 FBS team. After not even receiving votes last week, being at 22 or 23 seems about right. Win the next 2 games to go to 4-1, and we will be right up there ranked in the low teens if not higher. Control what you can control and just win. The polls will work themselves out.

Last years results should have zero affect on this years polls. Unfortunately, that's just the way it works. It is tougher to earn your spot in the polls than it is to lose it.

Bye week? We get one of those during the season?!!

Probably the biggest win in UND history in the D1 era and people are really on here complaining? Yeah we didn’t do much in the second half till the TD drive. But, we were playing arguably the most successful team in the FCS in the past decade not named NDSU. They are the 5th ranked team in the FCS and had a 21 game home win streak. We beat a very good football team on the road. Can we just celebrate for 5 mins before the naysayers come on here diminishing a great win?!!

OK. Now I am curious? Who from your roster got offers from SEC schools? (Not trying to be a jerk. I really am wondering).

Tom Miller monitors this board? Of course he does. Where else does he get his hot sports takes!!

D1 Davidson gave up 698 total yards and 61 points to a D3 team!!! I guess they can be happy with their performance. But I doubt the defensive coordinator for Davidson was expecting numbers even remotely close to that!

Didn't you hear? They were recruited by Alabama, Auburn, and Georgia. But for some reason, they ended up at SHSU!!

Not quite the powerhouse conference like the almighty Southland, but its alright!!

Davidson absolutely destroyed DIII Guilford 91-61!!! Stats are ridiculous! Davidson had 685 rushing yards via the triple option, only passed the ball 8 times, and had 964 yards of total offense!! Insane!! http://www.sportingnews.com/us/ncaa-football/news/college-football-records-news-davidson-guilford-score-stats-video-ncaa-2018/17b7zc11ow6yc17esebvoo29c2

New Frozen Faceoff logo!!

Why would he be mad about Jones revealing to the public he was transferring. People were going to find out anyway. Unless it spoiled his big press conference he was going to have!! If he was truly upset about the entire situation, he should have released the info about him transferring before Jones did.

Dead ringer!! Zyon McCollum Tristin McCollum

I have said with our depth at RB, that they should use Santiago in the slot more. Doing so would put some film out there of how good he can be there. He has a much better chance as a slot receiver/returner than a RB in the NFL.

Oops!! Kind of missed the mark on that one!! I am sure if I had time to go through the last 4 years of this nonsense, I could find plenty of statements you made that proved to be absolutely false. You wonder why people question your predictions!!!

One thing that will be weird to hear when all the pre season articles start coming out is seeing phrases like "Und looking to make it back to the NCAA tournament this year...." Haven't seen that written in a looooong time!!

You fail to mention the cost of this new stadium. What do you suppose a 25000 seat stadium would cost to build these days? For reference to help you out, The HPC cost 20 million, the renovation of the Dakota Dome as USD is estimated at 26 million, and the renovation at Dana J Dykhouse Stadium at SDSU cost 65 million. So 2 questions for you: 1. How much do you estimate it will cost to build a brand new 25,000 seat stadium? 2. How will UND pay for it?

Statistically speaking, looks like a no doubter, winning going away, dominate win for UND!!

So one question that you fail to answer over and over and over and over again. How is UND going to afford to play FBS football? How are they going to afford to pay for increased scholarships, increased coaching salaries, cost of playing halfway across the country for most of its road games, cost to pay FBS teams to play in Grand forks, etc, etc, etc. The cost increase to go FBS is in the tens of MILLIONS per year. Considering UND's budget issues in having to switch conferences and drop sports, how the hell are you so confident?? Seriously? Answer the easy question. How is UND going to afford going FBS? I'll hang up and listen.

My bet is he never suits up for the Zags this year at all. If ever!

Sorry Mods. Should have probably started this topic in "Future Schedules". Maybe you can move it there.

Confirmed: UND-NDSU football rivalry will resume with meetings in Fargo http://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/football/4494605-und-ndsu-football-rivalry-will-resume-meetings-fargo And it sounds like they will protect all the Dakota schools rivalries and the Dakota schools will play the other 3 every year.

So a rotating schedule of home games versus USD and SDSU one year and NDSU and UNI the next? Sounds good to me!!

Just a link to the press release. https://fbschedules.com/jackrabbits-release-2020-2021-conference-football-schedules/

https://goyotes.com/schedule.aspx?schedule=109 So I guess it's pretty safe to assume that since the Jacks and Yotes are both coming up to Grand Forks that year, we will be playing in Fargo in 2020. If not, that would be a pretty loaded home schedule!!!
