Thanks. I was at the game...had to be there as I have degrees from both UND and USU. I had it x'd on my calender since it was announced four years ago. Being a ND native I rooted for the Hawks, but I happily observe that the Aggies are poised to win a lot of football games this year.
Logan is about the same elevation as Ft. Collins. Grand Forks and Brookings are also at similar a altitude. Jack's must be a better high elevation team than us.
Usu won that game. There qb throw precise throws to receivers that routinely got wide open. Usu was better on the line of scrimmage both offensively and defensively. That's how they won.
I was at the ISU game. UND successfully executed crucially important plays much more frequently than did the opposition. Often these successful plays were unspectacular, such as gaining 2 yards on third and one. Execution in critical situations seemed to be the difference to me.
Utah State had a bad year in 2020. I think they won one game. From what I've read their new head coach and staff hit the transfer portal hard in an effort to retool. So with a new coach and new players it is difficult to predict their tendencies. Ive not read any report about their win over Washington State but doing so might give you an idea of what to expect on Friday.
The Utah sportswriters, at least the ones I've read, have us four touchdown underdogs vs Utah State. Let them have that expectation in Logan. Let that prediction bake in among the Aggie players. Wyoming thought the same thing six years ago.
Good point but it's listed as ESPN+ in the last scheduling guide I saw. Save bet that most if not all home games for a BSC team will be on ESPN+ regardless of opponent.
It would be wise to take the vaccine if shown that having had the virus does not confer sufficient immunity. Why do you suppose people get a flu shot every year?
