  1. While that may be comforting to compare your team to NDSU's situation(I would do it to), NDSU also did something very weird that I wouldn't really bank on. As I have stated before and will state again, Run the ball. Stop the run. Win games. Or to get even simpler, and from what I have gathered definitely pertains to UND's struggles, "football is blocking and tackling."
  2. Learn to run the ball. Learn to stop the run. That leads to wins.
  3. Lennon has a pretty good gig in SIU. Bohl didn't have his team being embarassed by the good teams on his schedule. Just routinely lost to everyone by around 3-10 points.
  4. Playing an 0-7 team.
  5. 7-0 team playing against a 0-7 team.
  6. huh?
  7. Has to go somewhere to see some defense...and a full venue. Jokes aside, UND was off this week. Nothing wrong with catching a big game.
  8. Something like 150K I think? Don't know why but that number seems familiar.
  9. If UND offered to come to Fargo(no return)...and to pay the buyout against WCU, I think it'd be a very tough deal for Gene to turn down.
  10. I imagine that is why they are dropping the game. A.) They can have a home-game and make a lot of money. B.) May want to play other teams. Losing this year probably didn't help but normally they are such a powerhouse I don't think they would be too concerned with that. Getting games bought out blows.
  11. FBS schools seem to be just fine playing an extra game. I'd like to see more FCS teams take that 12th game.
  12. My dad mentioned that when we were discussing what was going on with the UND defense. He had a feeling that too much may have been put into getting an offense on the field (similar to Notre Dame problems the last 10 years). Plenty of speed up here. Beck, Olson, Littlejohn are all ND/MN boys, so was Jemison. SEC country kids are more than likely going to stay in SEC country. Lots of FCS schools down there. Also the Sun Belt taking a lot of guys that aren't good enough to get recruited for BCS schools. IMO, me and Sic are on the same thought train.
  13. You know, Boise isn't quite the same this year, but still a big win(very rare to leave Boise with a W). Nice job Aztecs.
  14. attendance estimate?
  15. Is muss aware UND is on pace to give up 700 yards?
  16. Sounds like excuses to me. I am not trying to be rude, but UND had much better averages in the D-2 days yeah? No reason to say, "Oh (insert school here) averages (insert number comparable/less than UND here). So we should be happy we have what we have. If I pulled that card on BV I'd get my *** chewed.
  17. Hope you enjoy your time in North Dakota!
  18. Well, the students have 7 sections. A chunk is reserved for the band. In 7 sections, if two are open(assuming you could move the students in those sections to others and they would fit in pretty tight, that makes 5 full sections and two empty ones. If they fit relatively comfortably we can say 4.5 full ones, and 2.5 empty ones, that is still well over half full.
  19. gives out 3,800 I believe. Easily over half considering 2,000 were claimed Monday, I imagine AT MOST another 1,000 were claimed, probably fewer. Also, people cram into the lower section, maybe an extra hundred at the most(aisle areas and filling in rows so people can't sit). If people are sitting in the endzone area, that is a pretty good sign that more than half of the section is full. Get back on topic homer.
  20. Last weekend was not very good. Though compared to UND.....very much to be proud of. Probably only about 3,000 tops. We make noise however. And the early season beatdowns did nothing to add to the student section. SDSU game should be pretty rocking. Playoffs should be very impressive if we are once again at home. Thank you.
  21. I will estimate attendence at roughly 9000. This is really sad.
  22. That coach I presume we are both thinking about also didn't have teams getting blown out by anyone and had proved that he knew what it took to build a very good team already. We'll see what happens to Muss.
  23. The sport's league that keeps the NHL from being relevant. In all seriousness, this is a stupid article. Dude ought to get punched.
