This is lit af. We are playing the qb everyone knows shouldn't be playing...hes playing the way he has all year...and we are winning.

Damn that is a tough situation then

Lol is Bubba afraid your D can't get a stop? Who goes for it on 4th and 8 from the 30 lmaoooo

Lol yes I'm pleased with everyone but the trash qb and the wide receiver dropping an easy touchdown

Lol ndsu is winning with zeb Noland at qb

Lol idk but Entz needs to accept a coordinator/position coach spot somewhere because he sucks lol. Otis Weah...awesome name

Tbh seemed like a good call on 4th down. Give it to the power back dude. He didn't get it, but thats football

Uhhh wtf are you talking about? I said I'd pick on some ridiculously soft guy butthurt about NDSU getting a quick score. And @VMeister lol.

Lol wut?

I love how sad you are lmaoo. You and @VMeister are my targets today.

Lol we are playing with a hand tied behind our backs and still score within a minute LMAOOOOO

We all make mistakes in our youth... won't hold it against our local Catholic U's AD.

I look forward to "accidentally" running into him sometime while just "happening" to have a case of whatever his beer of choice is.

Dale Lennon seems like a cool guy. Would love to crush some cold ones with him.

Even if NDSU is average this spring and average in the fall, I doubt the head coach gets canned. I'm guessing they'd shake up the staff a bit but they aren't gonna can the guy unless the wheels completely fall off.. That costs money.

If Zeb starts, I'm gonna be pissed lol. Not sure what long term changes result from a single regular season football game though.

The kids lack creativity. This must be done properly by the Gen X'ers or early Millennials.

Of course you never want to lose. Say God comes to me in my sleep and says "NDSU will lose to UND this week, or in the fall...but I'm letting you choose which one," that decision is very easy. Take the L in the spring season. Would you rather lose a pickup game to your brother in front of your parents and some friends or in front of the whole school? Same general concept.

I'd disagree. It probably means more to UND. Win or lose...NDSU has around 18K butts in seats for the fall season and people ready to get back to tailgating and all that. NDSU fans can write off the spring season mentally. If you asked any NDSU football fan "would you prefer to lose to UND this week or this fall?" We know everyone's answer...this week. UND wins, they sorta can get the needle moving up north though. If they lose, its just another reminder that they are the "other" school in ND with a football team. I'm curious to see how the game goes. I haven't watched much UND but they've beaten SDSU which is usually a sorta benchmark game. Beat USD who can be pretty solid. And took SIU behind the woodshed who took NDSU behind the woodshed. Based off of the resumes, if I was a betting man I'd take UND for a few hundred bucks, but I'm not a sketchy Portuguese in Providence like @MafiaMan or a greasy Eye-Tye on Long Island so I'll stay out of it.

Either it wasn't close or Zeb is a Thursday all-american lol

I mean...that was their first game in 10 months and CAU's 3rd or 4th game of the season. Not unexpected to be a bit rusty, plus even NDSU isn't going to blow everyone out.

I dont like the "young" thing either but NDSU does have a couple unique challenges for an FCS team. So they would have been a bit young this year anyway had it been a fall season. But the offensive line would have had an absolute unit and they'd have had the best QB in FCS to assist with growing pains. It looks obvious now that even had they played in the fall, they were going to take a step back. Lance would have papered over the cracks quite a bit though. I'm sure plenty of other teams, maybe every team, lost some key guys too. But losing Lance and Radunz really exacerbated NDSU's already less than ideal situation.

Nickel Game. That will suffice. Bring it out of retirement.

My sister used to host the watch parties for NDSU in DC and said they usually got together with the SDSU/USD people for the games. Said it made it more fun. Seems to be a similar experience you've had.

It appears NDSU also has parties at some place called JJ Madisons. UND's website doesn't have the same sort of deal it appears. I'm sure if you show up to an NDSU one there will be some other UND folks as well. You might get peed on if one if the bigger girls can't find a bathroom but other than that you should be fine amongst the Bison fans. https://undalumni.org/WatchParty
