Preston could be in the mix too?

This is painful. I just want to see Quincy play a little.

Did anyone having any trouble streaming the game from ESPN Plus?

Will the game be on ESPN+?

SDSU vs Missouri State seems like a given 1st round matchup... #2 vs a bubble team, and a regional matchup. As for und and NDSU meeting in the first round... I can't think of anything that makes me believe that would happen.

Seems like we could run the ball on them. But yes, they've got some good receivers, a great QB, and speed. I would guess we would have a couple running backs put up over 100 yards and that should keep things interesting... If we play them. With covid-19, I wonder if the committee will have more in conference games in the first round. Maybe we see an EWU vs Weber matchup... They haven't played each other this year.

I see Missouri State's AD is the selection committee chairman. I don't think that would make SDSU vs NDSU a losers out game, but never know; might need a way to make room for MSU.

If we lose it might be hard to give UND a spot in the playoffs when we haven't won in 5 weeks and are riding a two game losing streak. SDSU losing probably helps us as we would have a clear advantage over them. I think it's unlikely missouri state gets in but not out of the question if UND and SDSU both lose.

Agree that we get in at 4 - 1. Missouri state lost several games last fall and that likely keeps them out, and I think three valley teams could get in. Getting in at 4 - 2 would probably require sdsu and missouri state to lose one more game, which could happen.

I'm pretty sure the game is on kvly. The poster asked for viewing options for people who weren't local

Anyone know how home field will be determined. With some states capping attendance and some not, a bidding process doesn't seem like the way to do it.

I know there were a couple in game 1 this year

Agree. At this point I wouldn't trade holinka for schmitty.

I think Tommy would look a little better if maag was better at making adjustments to the ball. He's great at catching a ball in stride but it seems like the ball needs to be right on the money for maag to get a reception. He doesn't seem to have the catch radius of somebody like wanzak. Maybe we should be targeting someone else for the big down field plays?

Did I read somewhere that Will Ratelle was on the UND strength and conditioning staff?

Don't worry. As long as there's still tape out there from the Rudy years no one is ever going to be believe it.

Looks like midco sn + will be streaming the game.

Choate did a solid job at MSU. Wonder if Given can be as successful? It's worth mentioning that bubba has faired pretty well against montana state. Now if we could just compete well against idaho state...

Any idea if the games will be on midco sn +?

so, midco sn plus would be your answer, at least for getting midco out west, correct? Or am I missing something?

Throw to their tight ends?

I wonder if there was any talk in the the P5 about breaking away from the NCAA and forming an association that would make it more reasonable to play this fall? A scaled down testing protocol, looser social distancing and contact tracing guidelines,and an association that would take on more liability risk would have gone a long way toward saving the season.

I think Cole Reyes made a similar statement his freshman year. That didn't turn out too badly.

I see boltmann with more yards than Maag. Maag had a rough finish to the season last year... Hope that isn't going to linger.

Buy or Sell:. We run the ball well. Let's say average 175 yards on the ground this season.
