UND92

The main reason they began putting out the TOP TEN so early is to begin early discussions and give FCS some "Press" time and let the Blogs have something to talk about.

Can't see any way Cal Poly gets rated ahead of UND. If UND wins on SAt. they will be in top 12.

Ridiculous. USD Loses and they move up 1 spot. At 4-4 they are ahead of Montana at 5-3.

This will be an interesting show to watch this Thursday. "It will be interesting to see what the NCAA Division I FCS selection committee thinks of the potential playoff field later this week. What the rest of us think doesn't matter. On Thursday, the selection committee will release the first of three weekly Top 10 rankings - much like what happens on the FBS level. It's a new feature of the committee leading into Selection Sunday on Nov. 20. The first rankings will be aired on ESPN's "College Football Live," which begins at 3 p.m. ET."

UND listed as Big Sky auto bid and as at atlatge bid. If UND gets the Auto bid They should be ahead of EW.

Grand Forks Herald listed Bryce Cashman was arrested for DUI on consecutive days in Sept., 2016. I believe that is what got him kicked off the BB team. Don't know if he wil be allowed to come back. Use 16/17 as his Redshirt year and would still have 2 years left.

Look at the Alerus Ticket website. Many more tickets available as of today than at this time for the Potato Bowl. Beet Harvest is going strong. Some guys may finish up today or tomorrow but many will still be busy Sat. My guess is under 10,000 but hope I am way low!!!

When the Betty was first proposed, it was estimated to hold 4,200. By taking out the Lounge area and eventually filling that space with seats, it should get closer to 4,200.

Why Scheels? Isn't the new BSA to open this year?

I think what this quote tells us is that they know they have to show up each night and play hard. If they do that they will have a chance to win any game. If they just show up and not play hard, they won't win. I saw some good things in the Wisconsin game and the second half of the Walford game showed that they can play good defense and that offense starts first with a good defense. They better play Defense against NDSU or it could be like last year.

One item the Committee says they use is the SRS scoring system. In this system UND outscored both EIU and WIU +3.35 to +1.35. If they had put UND in over either team using this scoring system, neither ot the other teams would have had much of an argument. Plus UND beat the #6 team in the playoffs and beat an FBS team, which would give UND reason to be in. EIU had no Quality wins and got smoked by WIU.

NDSU had three of their top players sitting out. Including their top player, Holly Johnson, who outplayed Evers in last years UND game. When she is able to play they will improve greatly. Like if UND were to lose Mia Lloyd.

Last week we were 1 goal line fumble away from going up 28-0 in the 1st Half. With a very young team. Lots of excitement after the WYO game and a Huge game against the defending champs this week, I think the kids just lost their composure and forgot that they had a 2nd half to play. I look forward to a hard fought game this week and may the best GREEN/WHITE team win.

As long as UND averages 1,500-1,800 fans per game, there is no need for additional seating. With winning will bring more fans. Need to win first then worry about additional seats. New scoreboards are a must now though. I have not liked the current setup since day 1.

Ryan Chappel ran 10.81 in HS

So what about the 4 guys buying hats???

When will we see???

I can't see where you can say SU is slipping. They just won 3 championships in a row. I am a UND alum and fan, but also respect what SU has done the past 4 years. I do agree that UND recruiting and future looks brighter than the past 2-3 years, but at this time I cannot agree that SU is or has slipped any, until someone beats them.

So does this confirm 100% that he is at UND? Practicing with the team today?

Any updates on this recruit? Classes started today. Is he registered and attending class? I know he redshirted first semester, but could he possibly play this semester? Would help to solidify Big Sky schedule and then red shirt him for first 1/2 next season. OOC games in Nov.-Dec next year are less important than conference games. Might he be the piece of the puzzle to help win the Conference tournament this year?

I think either of these two will do fine. My only problem with Deboar is that if he has some success he will leave ASAP. Bubba will have more allegiance to UND and not jump at the first opportunity to leave. If they can come here and win, with the new indoor practice facility next year, I think thaey can have success in GF, not only conference titles but compete nationally.

When the Betty was first proposed, I believe it was to have 4,200 capacity. So I believe there is the possibility of adding more seating if and when needed. At this point not needed but with improvement it may come. Can also move into REA for 6,000-8,000+

Wyoming OC staying in Wyoming. What does that mean for Vigne in Fargo???

I believe all ND State jobs must be posted internally for a minimum of 5 working days. If no one applys then you can post externally, I belive a minimum of 10 days, unless you call it an "Emergency" situation, then you can hire in less time.

Defensive Corrdinator at New Mexico not returning to team. Faison old Stomping grounds. Maybe future coach at UND? Stay Tuned
