Was Evan Holm held out to preserve a red shirt, or was it injury related?

I don't necessarily think fans are looking for an extension. I think best case scenario is for Bubba to retire after his current contract is up (after 2021 season), after having made the playoffs in each of his last three seasons. (2019, 2020, 2021)

Had a dream last night that I returned a kick for a touchdown, and then this morning, I found a dollar bill that had blown into my yard. I’m feeling lucky about this!!

Still plays. She's a junior. Maybe we could get a game against Michigan State?

The fact that we had these three at the same time was like having Jenny Krause and the Pudenz sisters in WBB at the same time. Remember that Chelsea Moser was on the team that first year, too. There were also a good supporting cast on those teams, like Alivia Fraase (she'd be a senior this year), Julia K, Jordan Vail, Ashley Bruggeman, and Teodora Tepavac (a minor role, but she could get us a serve if we needed it).

If there were ever a time to bring out the "Leave No Doubt" mantra, the Weber State game is it. Win and you're probably in. Lose and you're leaving your destiny in someone else's hands.

We’ve had some luck on our side this year, too.

I could definitely see that being the final score. Hopefully it’s closer.

Weber St., North Carolina A&T, and Youngstown St. https://athlonsports.com/college-football/fcs-rankings-top-25-power-poll-following-week-4-2019

For the Top 25, James Madison and Sam Houston St. both had byes last week. https://athlonsports.com/college-football/fcs-rankings-top-25-power-poll-following-week-10-2019

IF UND uses the bye to their advantage - well rested, more prepared, healthier - then it was a good decision not to play a 12th game. No reason why we can't put together a game plan to beat Weber St. when we've had two weeks to do it. Build off the last game, which used defense and special teams to set the tone. If Kett struggles offensively, put Schuster in and see what he can do. No reason to not let him get his four games. Bubba should still be saying "It's a very important game for our team this year and very important game for our program."

I was a fan of the double bye week before the season began, and I still stand by it. We just need to make sure that our bye week is indeed helpful to the team. We should be the more prepared, better rested team come next week in Ogden. It would be disappointing not to win that game.

Only 5 teams with a tougher SOS have an equal or better record than UND.

Not sure if that’s true.

Obviously specific players who need recovery time are different, but the overall similarities are there. Wasn’t expecting someone to take the comment so literal.

The scenario is set up the same as the first bye week: A home win vs. a ranked opponent in a thriller (SHSU 27-23), much needed bye week to nurse some injuries, then road game against a ranked opponent (EWU). Hopefully we learned our lesson and don't repeat the mistakes of EWU when we get to WSU.

Not exactly an answer to your question, but the Midco rebroadcast of the entire game is tonight at 7:00 pm, so you could see everything you want then.

What I was really getting at, is that UNI could potentially out-bid UND based on facility size. I understand capacity numbers don't always reflect actual attendance.

The UNI-dome can seat 16,000, so I suspect they could easily out-bid UND. I was asking a similar question about bidding on p. 62 that has not been answered yet.

The same has been said about UND many times - glad the shoe is on the other foot!

Not sure if this has been posted anywhere yet. https://undfootball360.com/news/hawks-pull-out-another-magical-home-victory/

No playoff bid for UND according to College Sports Madness. https://www.collegesportsmadness.com/fcs-football/bracketology

I'm assuming Sunday, November 24.

Remind me of how the playoff bidding works - each school submits a bid prior to the bracket announcement, right? Are the bids opened before or after the bracket announcement? In other words, Are bids ever used to determine the playoff field, especially with bubble teams?
