Deep trouble as in they'd have to try? I agree with that, but as long as they come ready to play they would certainly beat ndsu. Now getting those "pre-madonnas" ready to play against an FCS team may be another story.
President Kelley has made a big push to reduce North Dakota's (yes, it's prevalent throughout the entire state) drinking culture. This is also evident by the stationing of police at REA student entrances to bar from entry and fine students with alcohol on their breath.
