I don't think Schmidt is going to settle for that as the gold standard in Grand Forks.

This is what George Rohl signed up for? Good luck kid.

Who cares? The people who think not much has changed.

No way last year's team wins this game 35-7.

More than half the team is different from last year. Once they get used to playing each other, they'll be crisper.

Anyone still want to compare this team to last year's? Great to see the road losing streak end in such spectacular fashion.

The real question is, will Miami win a conference game this year?

At this rate, the Vikings will be contending for a top 5 draft pick next year.

I knew someone would bring up number of games played as "proof" that leaving after one year didn't hurt Jost. Quality is just as important as quantity. I think he would have been with the Avalanche for years as a fixture in their lineup if he had one more year of seasoning and development at North Dakota.

I have also noticed how much better the twos and threes have looked when they have a chance to get on the field. Last season, the drop off in effectiveness was huge and noticeable.

Farm subsidies.

I read parts of the season preview section in the Heraldo. I think it is safe to say that the coaching change saved the program from a catastrophic crash.

I guess I was talking about Mason.

Glen Mason used to do the same thing. It worked for awhile, but when you keep losing your bowl games, it catches up with you.

If they are good enough for an FBS team to show interest, that means they would make an excellent FCS player.

If all they have are those cheap replicas, I'll pass.

At least he didn't flip to NDSU.

I think the road game drought is as much mental as it is anything else. Win this game (no matter how ugly) and it will be a big confidence booster for the program.

Maybe Jax is implementing a team wide attitude adjustment and doesn't want any distractions? Just a thought.

The problem is, who wants to manage a Major League team with AAA talent?

Either play for a program that almost lost to Rutgers on Saturday and constantly underachieves or play for a program going in a positive direction. It's up to him.

The biggest question is: Who will be left that gives a rat's a$$ about the Twins?

And we have 8 NCAA titles in a sport NDSU doesn't sponsor.

I think Jax is smart enough to know that is what we are really asking.

After UND won the 2016 NCAA hockey title, gas stations in Fargo displayed the Heraldo backwards. That's because the team was pictured on the front celebrating with the trophy on the ice in Tampa. That is one of many reasons I won't support them in the name of state pride. I can sum it up like this: I would rather walk barefoot on molten glass than support any of NDSU's teams.
