2011 vs Idaho, thumped. Then we turned around and had the ball to win it against Fresno St with an NFL starter at QB. If we get thumped by Wyoming it might be a good thing for us going into Fargo. Wake the team up, show the coaches some holes to fix, and get NDSU to relax a bit more.

Funny that you don't understand the way offense and defense play off of each other. Our offense put a ridiculous amount of pressure on the defense last year.

Would it be going out on a limb to say you know from experience?

It's a necessary evil. Otherwise all other threads will be overrun.

There's a lot to love in this post.

He didn't play for the mob, he's not forever indebted to UND and its overzealous fans.

One game at a time.

It depends on what you look at. Simply with wothdrawls alcohol is the worst by far. There's obviously more to it than that though.

Right.... Well, happy 3rd.

According to a student who is no longer interested in his schools team because it's below him? All of your posts are null and void unless they're about your actual team Notre Dame.

We had every excuse to be 2-10 last season. Instead we beat a ranked team and were a tough team to play with the exception of San Jose St, Missouri St, and EWU.

When you think about the state of our team at the time of that game it's damn impressive regardless of your opinion of ranking systems.

At least 5. UNI Poly SUU USD NAU. Impressive, isn't it. Edit. It is 5.... Woo

And yea, we ruined their season. It's a nice feather in the cap of a really good UND team.

Sucks when people exaggerate huh?

The Valley looked good before NDSU was in it. So no, it doesn't.

This is a huge loss. Athletes like him don't come out of ND every year. We need as many ND kids as possible. They develop better and are more reliable than kids from elsewhere.

Does #5 UNI count? At UNI? Where you guys took damn near a decade to get your first win? Took us one try.

The alumni did not support Mussman. They loved Lennon, and they love Bubba too.

I believe SUU was ranked 17 when we beat them in 2011, one the road.

Ed OBannon has a good point and that is not it.

It's also a good way to keep the players humble, they're already given enough.

Their toughest opponent on sept 19 won't be UND, it will be their own fans. A little mistake here and there will snowball with pressure and unproven players will crack.

It's called get a job and buy some eggs

I'd rather play you guys in the fargo dome twice in a row. It's an opportunity to really taint the immortal reputation of NDSU football. Plus playing in Fargo means the team will be tight because of the pressure. Any positive play by UND and the NDSU faithful will start getting tense and the players will feel it.
