Agreed. I’d say 9-2 would be enough for a seed, but that’s just my Kelly green glasses.

With each week, I am feeling that this is going to happen.

http://www.fcs.football/cfb/story.asp?i=20181016095048548571304&ref=rec&tm=308&src=CFB This is last week's bracketology from STATS that I don't believe anyone posted. It has UNI coming to Grand Forks, with the winner going to Brookings. I expect that to change once new predictions come out this week.

In addition to UND being #16, I also noticed that UNI's win is getting a lot of love from the pollsters. They're up to #11.

"11. FCS Independents – With each week, North Dakota is looking more like a playoff team."

When you look at it this way, I feel quite confident that UND will be able to put up at least that many points. And if Weber's offense is their weakness, I would tend to agree that UND's defense could hold them to just a few scoring opportunities.

Don't know much about Weber State, other than that they are ranked highly in the polls - is their defensive strength the run game or the passing game? What kind of offensive scheme will Rudy need to keep Weber's defense off-balance?

So it sounds like a defensive score would be a key to winning the game.

Other than FBS Washington, yes.

Should have gotten mine in sooner, that’s the score I was going with! I’ll tack on a touchdown and go 38-14.

May as well burn it - this team can go places, and you should put people in a position to succeed.

No question these are my favorite Sioux jerseys of all time.

In 2016, I think it was actually a little bit of a curse being seeded and having the first round playoff bye. Our bye week that year was also the last week of the season, so we had three weeks in between football games. I think we would have done better playing a home first-round game to get our feet wet, and then go from there. This year, with our bye week in the middle of the season, I don't see any reason to not want a seed. A seed is so beneficial (or at least can be) to teams because they get a bye after a long season, and then a home playoff game.

I'm sure I could look it up myself, but is that 4 regular season games, or 4 games total?

Such a nice weapon to have in the arsenal. I'm sure they'll be a team with a defensive line that it won't work against, but for now it keeps drives rolling and scores touchdowns.

With what I saw on Saturday, 8-3 should be very doable. 9-2 isn't out of the question, either.

A game like this can give a team a lot of swagger. Do (just about) everything the right way, win big, and forge on trying to play that exact same way.

https://m.herosports.com/fcs/football-top-25-poll-week-8-bzbz this was posted over in the 2018 Season thread, but since it a poll, I though I would put it here as well.

I thought the same thing. Will Holm’s play be a defining moment in the history of UND football, like mooney’s was? I hope so.

Her setter dumps are useless.

Very disappointed with setter play, though a lot of it is not her fault. One play of hers in particular stood out to me to today - she reached for the first hit of the defensive sequence.

This year’s squad isn’t going anywhere. Got to beat your toughest competition when you play them at home, and they failed to do that against Denver and South Dakota. Hope we got some recruits coming in the pipeline, cuz we are talent deficient compared to what we’re used to.

And what a statement it was!! Ye-ahs!

Got a game day walk up ticket at the 50 yard line (ok, technically the 49, but who’s counting?!)
