I don’t worry about season records, or games, or scores. I say start simple.
Win this snap.
Honestly, that’s all there is in football: the coming snap.
Win this snap.
Win doesn’t have to mean score or strip the ball.
Win means 4 yards on first down.
Win means converting on third down.
Win means catching the ball even if it’s for no gain.
Win means executing a coffin corner punt.
Win means stuffing a run for no gain.
Win means breaking up a pass.
Win means making their QB throw it away because there are no options.
Win means wrapping up a tackle.
Win means hanging onto the ball.
Win means making a block or getting off a block.Win means executing all the tiny but huge parts of the game in your favor every snap.
Win means all 11 guys on the same page executing as one.Win this snap.
Or as Al Davis said, “Just win, baby.”
So my thoughts on 2018?
Win this snap.
What else is there.
Simple, yet elegant

Ditto. I need to take Friday off. Hard to take a day off to watch Miss State
Not to be the grammar police...
would love to see UND take on Mississippi State (SEC) at the Alerua. Agree about Miss Valley

Why would anyone at UND, which can't sell out an 11k stadium talk down to a smaller city that routinely has a greater attendance than the Alerus can handle? Good for SDSU to be looking toward the future when they built their stadium. Their fb program has been on the rise and the Sioux Falls metro will continue to grow. They have a realistic chance to hit sellouts the way they are headed. UND will (hopefully) be envious of the capacity of the Jacks stadium as they rebuild a winning tradition, but November and especially December in northern ND is considerably nastier than central-southern SD.
All that said, why does the NCAA schedule the first round playoff game on Thanksgiving weekend? There is enough time off after the semifinal to delay the playoff a week. Is it because of finals?

Compared to Boise, Idaho?
On September 18, 2017, the Big Sky announced that its men's and women's tournaments will relocate in 2019 to Boise, Idaho; the initial contract runs for three years at CenturyLink Arena, through 2021.
Have been to both Boise and Sioux Falls...
Boise is a beautiful city.
Sioux Falls... Well, let's just say that on a clear day you can smell Sioux City

Did you get this inside information from Coach Rudolph? I think he has shown us differently.
Before you jump all over me...
It's just a joke... Sort of

Seems like our offense was really explosive under Muss maybe it’s because the defense couldn’t stop the opponent from scoring and every game became a track meet, but when Bubba took over our points per game has been low. I would love for us to hold opponents to 14 points or less while scoring 30+. Last year only 2 times we scored more than 27 points. I can’t wait to see what our new QB does, because we can’t run the ball on every down.

I haven't heard much about Chaves in the Herald or even small talk in town...Is this good or bad or just too early?

Jeremy Jorgenson NDSU has stated at least 1 time that I heard. NDSU playing Football games in Grand Forks was off the table. I believe him.
So, just spitballin' here...
if if the Great Northern FBS conference actually happens, NDSU will Not join because they won't play in GF?

... What if it was just the injuries? What if Rudolph didn't think Stutsrud had the arm or the OL was good enough to open up the playbook? .......
Really hope this is the truth...
agreed about Studsrud

Two med schools and two law schools in ND? Unlikely.

You recruit better talent with better facilities.
Better talent equals more wins.
It's really simple.
Better recruiting, game plan, in-game adjustment, use of personnel equals more wins.

Honestly, if they got someone to take UNC off of their hands they can go to 10/12 and be good.
That would make the MVFC nervous. 6 football schools in the Summit?

The Big Sky is too big, both in geography and number of institutions (for FCS).
i know many on here deride SiouxVolley, but it would be nice if the school presidents had his vision. The research institutions of the northern states really should peel off and form an 8 to 10 team conference of like-minded schools.
disclaimer - always liked UND in the Big Sky over the Summit League. Would have preferred that UND stay put in the BSC. On the other hand, restarting rivalries in the Summit is understandable.

Both poor from my standards.
Mussman recruited much better qb's. Braden Hansen would probably not come to play under Schweigert and Rudolph.

... the best QB's in the world are not that good while laying on their back beneath D linemen and LB's.
Just ask Joe Mollberg and Ryan Bartels.
Not saying they're the best in the world, but they spent a lot of time either in that position or 'running for their lives'

I'd take someone who has stayed the course (WMU guy) vs. someone who is looking for greener pastures at every turn (Elliot) any day of the week. Elliot will be a train wreck and a short termer if she's the one chosen. There's a reason she is at UTSA and got bypassed for the AD spot.
If she secured $30 million for a football stadium before she left, like she did at Stanford, would it be all that bad?
Not sayin she should be hired, but there is such a Chaves vs Mannausau discussion going on, there are reasons for each of these candidates to be finalists.

Where will they hear it? Won't be on fb, Twitter or any other social media, I'd be willing to bet.
