UNDBIZ

Although he struggled with drops early, Toivonen has been an important check down option for Kett this season. Need Stanley, Maag, or someone else to fill that role.

The preparation among FCS watchers for a potential UND win has already begun. Much ado is being made of Weber St being without their #2 QB. The excuses are already being crafted.

MVFC teams get credit for quality losses, including losses to teams like Montana who are now bad. Everyone else is just bad.

Montana beats UNI.... Montana is back!! UND crushes Montana..... Worst Montana team ever!! (and everyone conveniently forgets about the UNI game) If UND beats Weber and then ISU beats Weber, Weber will be written off as bad

Probably true. I don't recall what Faison did for the Madison Square Garden game, but that was during UND's first DI playoff game ever, so I'm not sure it's really comparable either. Chaves has already built up more goodwill with all-sports fans than Faison ever had, so I guess I'm willing to give him a pass here.

It's a big event with plenty of major donors to shake hands with. I guess I'd be surprised if he wasn't there.

Exactly. It'd be nice if our offense took advantage of that more often.

8 of their 21 sacks came in the USD game, so it's a little skewed, but they do get after the QB apparently. FWIW, zero sacks in their last game against MSU.

Based only on a quick look at the stats from their games, it looks like they're pretty good all-around on D. Very good against the run and hold QBs to around 50% completion. Also forcing around 2 interceptions per game.

Weber gave up 28 to UNC, 28 to NAU, and 24 to MSU. We gave up 13 to UNC, 14 to UM, and 15 to Sac St. I expect those trends to continue....

I'm not sure Weber is better than Idaho State overall, but defensively, this will be the best team we've played since Washington.

Sounds like Weber has a really good kick return game....

And they also love blowouts.

Computers love blowouts.

Hot take!

I wonder if und made any effort to push the bsc for an away game this weekend

Unfortunately I'm guessing the vast majority of the AD, foundation, and school admin will be in Vegas. Gonna need the city to make a push on the fb game.

Just lacks top end speed or is he also not quick? For punt return, I'll take quick and shifty over a straight line sprinter.

Botched xp is at the 3:20 mark. Peterson failed to cover the ball, but showed some pretty good speed there. JJ short td run at the 4:45 mark. #49 had no interest in getting between him and the goal line.

Same question here. Stone hands? Still injured?

I'm doing that on United out of Bismarck for about $460. I think Frontier out of Bismarck was still relatively cheap, but the return flight required an overnight stay in Denver, so there's another $100 hotel.

Maybe it will work out for you with them trying to fill a plane with cheaper tickets.

Whoops. Saw you updated your post so I deleted mine. But yeah, I'm flying United because it's cheaper than Allegiant. Crazy
