Yes. Needs to be Drake and WIU style.

I know this won’t be a popular take, but I’m just trying to think about this logically. There’s been a lot of disgust at starting Tommy for the 3rd quarter. Keep in mind, this analysis only works when considering what we knew at halftime, not anything in the second half. At halftime, UND was only down 17, well within the reach of making a comeback, so long as some things go your way. UND was going to start with the ball. Score on that drive. Get a stop. Force a turnover. Who would have the best chances to lead a comeback - a 4 year starter or a backup who has only played a few reps? I’m not ragging on the backups, I’m just asking what evidence is available to think they would’ve been the best candidate to lead a comeback? I know Tommy had a bad half, but that doesn’t mean the second half will go the same way. Putting a new guy in there at that point says, to me, that we are not expecting to win. I’ll hang up and listen.

"Indiana State is up next at home. Let’s enjoy the season and look forward to the playoffs. This team is representing UND, Grand Forks, and it’s alumni very well and I am proud of them." Was this something that Kelly tweeted?

Better than burning the tape. That one really rubbed me the wrong way last time he said it.

This is my point of view as well. Even if Tommy does stay on the team next year, that doesn't mean he earns the starting job. It will probably be the most interesting story line of UND football in 2024.

Haven't seen the write-up on the 360 website yet.

Not to me. Beating ndsu was a huge sigh of relief. I was thinking we’d have to wait another 2 years for that to happen. but it appears that it was a fluke, and perhaps not the program changing win we were hoping it to be. I think we need a “players only” meeting of our own.

And weren’t we lucky that they have fallen back to reality??!!

Too bad we didn’t have a cupcake the week following the Bison to help get through the hangover.

Regardless of season outcome, I’ve been hoping Bubba would retire. Now with the NDSU win, he’s done enough for him to ride happily in the sunset. turn the page for ‘24.

I thought we had turned the corner last week…guess we just got lucky.

Amazing how one fumble can rattle the entire team.

I changed into the outfit I was wearing last week. Hopefully that helps!!

We’ve played well uptempo before haven’t we?

I thought Herb gave it before the third period of the Sweden game.

Hopefully the halftime speech is something analogous to Herb Brooks’ “if you lose this game…”

Score here and score after halftime and we got a game.

Need a big time reset. Shame shame shame…

YSU beat Illinois St. by 3.

Listening on radio for the first time this year. Sounds like I’m not missing anything on the web stream.

The ESPN website shows this game on ESPN+, so how is that different than any other game?? Other than the “game of the week” stays excludes Midco from televising the game?? This game was ESPN3 last year.

That comment was tongue in cheek.

Hope you’re right!! That means the rest of the games should be easy peasy.

It would mean we got lucky. And while I’d rather get lucky against the Bison more than any other team, getting lucky implies you didn’t deserve it. That’s not what I want as the identity of this team. Let’s prove we belong by backing it up today.

Not saying he even wants to play another season, but how does the whole Covid year, medical redshirt, and 4-game red shirt all fit in together? Is it a convoluted mess?
