All 120 lbs of Ivery were flying to the ball. It was awesome to see someone out there play that way. Why was it a converted WR?

McGill will start. He's always open and run outstanding routes. It's a no brainer. The depth will only push the young guys to be better and in turn the next guys and the next guys. It's how it should be at every position.

Your parents must have had one hell of a time explaing air to you as a child.

How bout this for a hypothesis, Fargo/NDSU has always been about football and Grand Forks/UND has been about hockey. Perhaps that along with 5 years of crap in a row would point to the attendance woes?

pretty bold statement, perhaps you should reconsider that thought

Opposed to them leaving and not coming back in? Sounds like no difference to me.

Thanks for showing that you guys actually care and shedding light on the work you guys have done to step it up. Do you think the volume issue at the Alerus is a lack of willingness to crank it or just old speakers that can't handle it? Also as far as the intro goes I'm not sure the team really gets amped by the current one, although it is an improvement over older versions. I don't think we should be scared of a little rap for the players to get juiced up with in the intro. Also some smoke outside the helmet with green strobe lights as they walk into the helmet would look awesome. Just show that on the screen with some good music instead of the back in black intro. The intro was improved this year but has a ways to go. As far as student/ fan participation goes why not have a 'contest' where on each side a third of the sections have a U and then the next sections have an N and then the other group of sections have a D and then have a booming U-------N---------D U-----N-----D U--N--D chant that people could get into. How bout a signature song or two like Wisconsin does with their Jump Around after the 3rd quarter? Dry run at hockey games and carry over to other sports? Also, do you guys have any influence with the Alerus and their policy to not allow tailgaters to leave at half and come back in? I feel like the students and other fans would love that. Get some good food and something to drink at half and go back in to watch the rest of the game. I and others loved the UND version of Hard Knocks that you guys did, we wants more..... I realize the limitations of staff but something simple like getting to know position groups and the traditions of each would be a great way to get to know the guys on the team. What about an all sports pep rally the first week of school at the Betty of the Englestad and show highlights of the previous season and hype the coming seasons for the freshman and other students? I think just overall making sports like football and basketball seem more 'big time' than the perception is at the time would make it seem worth the students time to check out and get involved in.

The montana game had to have been good for a chest bump......

No playoffs, is it even worth it for him to play?

It's not even close. I went to both schools. The ratio of male/female is in UND's favor by alot. And they're better looking besides that fact.

Should have doesn't get anyone any closer to making the playoffs. If it did we'd only have one loss and would be playoff eligible. It matters because people 'need' to measure dicks

They actually have a really really good run defense. You can't run on them so you have to pass, just like those Vikings teams. You try to run and get stuffed so you can only pass which skews their pass defense stats. They have a soon to be pro TE who can't be covered by anyone on your team since he's 6'6" and can run. The QB is also big and very mobile so pressure can backfire. It'd be a good game and you guys could win.

Game day production needs to be on par with what they do for the hockey team. Intro blasting through the speakers. Tailgating needs to be adjusted. O yea and winning alot.

Anyone who thinks there is a controversy still needs to go out back and fashion themselves a switch and come back inside for their whoopin

Big game, need I say more?

He is the worlds strongest man

the HD looked really nice, so did the announcers maroon tie. couple of Montana homers.

Underthrown balls are hard on DBs to defend. Overthrown balls are impossible to catch. I'll take underthrown with 70%+ completions. His only huge knock is arm strength....

Dan Hendrickson was an all time great but never got his deserved credit.

The season predictions were based off of a healthy Hanson and Kleason and assuming that the defense wouldn't forget how to tackle over the summer. This team is above average at worst. We've lost to only ranked or FBS teams. The FCS teams that we have lost to have a combined 1 FCS loss. We just need a couple pieces on defense to fix that and maybe a dynamic bigger RB which could be found via the JUCO route. This team is very close to being elite, they just need a guy here and a guy there and things will fall into place.

He's been getting looked at all year.

I'd welcome a good drop down but want no part in another juco qb, no thanks.

Plugging holes worked really well for ndsu at db and lb.

I don't see qb as a huge area of need. Mollberg will be really really good. I've seen him make some throws that 18 year olds shouldn't be able to make when I saw him in fall camp. A nice rb would be awesome.

Mollberg is the real deal. We lose Sutton, big deal. We lose Lynch who is a really good hog. We lose a great qb and a very good one. We'll plug in new guys and be fine.
