Maybe the reverse of last year will happen. Instead of a blowout victory over NDSU leading to a collapse, the blowout defeat will be a turnaround. Lots of things in UND's favor yet: a bye week at a strategic time, weak road opponents, high profile home games. Still hoping for 9-3 (or better).

UND came back to beat ORU in 5 after being down 0-2. Good resiliency.

Knowing UND, some unheard of on NDSU's roster will have a break out day.

THanks so much, nodak. I also found this on the Midco deal: "Midco Sports will broadcast most conference road games for the football program" key word MOST https://fightinghawks.com/news/2022/8/4/general-und-athletics-midco-sports-announce-multi-year-television-rights-agreement.aspx

Changing the subject, didn't Midco's lastest deal with UND require football broadcasts of all away games? Indiana State and Illinois State are listed as ESPN+ - no Midco.

Other than the Bison game, none of the road games are ones I would consider to be a loss from the get go. If they are 7-5 after starting 4-1, that would be a huge collapse, IMO. Need to see minimum 8-4, and even that is a little underwhelming.

I know a lot of people were thinking 4 wins or so back in the doomsday of Freund and Pawlak leaving.

Now that we're through the first month of the season, what are people's (revised) expectations? Or is the sample size still too small? To me, 8-4 should be easily attainable and I would be very disappointed with anything less. 9-3 seems pretty realistic, but double digit wins is certainly obtainable - just need to pick off one the games in which we're not favored.

Yes. Even if you run 3 times for 1 yard each, it’s 4th & goal from the 1, and then it’s Q time.

I like the self promotion

Which “they”?

Score update? Taking advantage of the great weather to do some fishing so I’m not watching the game. Frequent score updates will be appreciated. Thanks.

Probably easier to just hand it off. End result is probably the same.

Any games to note today?

I laugh in jest, but at some point we will need to be a 4 quarter team.

Bounced back to sweep the host Green Bay. Didn’t see the match, but a sweep is a sweep.

Alex heinert: “Romfo silencing the critics for a moment.” obviously he doesn’t know the critics.

Ok, consider me converted. New qb please.

Awesome, Thanks.

Beat Chicago State 3-1 in Green Bay tournament yesterday. Face the Gophers today.

https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/college/why-und-football-is-now-utilizing-animated-sideline-signal-callers Coming at football purely from a fan perspective (no formal background), I found this really interesting. It seems like this is going in tandem with new S&C.

I just realized that UND has four "ISU games" this season.

Was thinking that very same thing.

Maybe Bubba outsmarted both him and Landry.

For the people pleading for Jerry - first off, how you can know that Jerry is just flat out better? And if he were, wouldn’t he be starting? Or are our coaches so moronic that they have no idea what they’re doing? Something just doesn’t add up.
