Hopefully we weathered the storm here and settle in.

How sad I am, really? You spend your days on a UND board. I feel sorry for you.

Go hop on and NDSU thread, how pathetic are you. Why are you here? No friends apparently.

If you were going with this....I'd do something like Red River Rock, and have a rock or something. Trophy sounds too vanilla. Although I'm with others, my first choice would be to refashion the nickel with a Hawk on one side.

And also had a lot to do with we had a guy named Rudy who was our offensive coordinator straight out of 1983. I really can't believe any really good QB could have ever been too excited to come play football at UND with Rudy as OC.

Does anybody know if there are any watch parties in the Mesa area? I think Bison fans would go to RT O'Sullivans for games, and there was a UND watch party for the Hockey Championship a few years ago. Anybody know if anything is happening this year?

Kind of glad we had that SDSU game and they started throwing bombs, which worked early, then we seemed to adjust. Hopefully if NDSU tries this we are a little more prepared for it and can adjust quicker if needed. I think we are going to have to count on Tommy winning this game for us. NDSU is going to stack the box to stop Weah and the run game. Tommy had a lot of passing yards last week, I think he'll likely need 250+ again this week for us to put enough points on the board. Let's see if Tommy "all he does is win games" Schuster can come up with another one on Saturday! Danny will need to call his best game of the year Saturday.

I'm not even going to let playoff brackets enter my mind until after this weekend.

My head tells me UND 24-17, but my heart tells me different. It's been a rough 10 years.....I need to see us do it before my heart can believe it.

Any news if Brock will be healthy enough to play? Hope Danny calls a masterful game, we will need it. Would be nice to have Brock as an option to mix thing up if we get stagnant on offense. I wish Zeb had played just a little bit better so that they were still starting him this week.

The only thing we are missing right now is a quality loss. Maybe we should lose this weekend so we can get a quality loss under our belts

We must have about 200 yards of offense compared to their 10. Keep it rolling. Let's get Quincy in, in the second half.

I predicted in the other thread that Luke breaks a big one today.

NIU at SIU tomorrow, will be interesting to see how that one turns out.

Now that is a bet I would take you up in on a second! Unless you got some inside news that we won’t be attempting any more FG’s this year

I predict Skokna breaks a big run.

Who had Belquist with as many receiptions as Maag after three games this year? Or Belquist and Preston combined having 4 times the catches Richter has?

Previous years I would have said this, not this year. The expectation should be to beat them handily, not saying players should think that. I'm hoping this is the game Quincy gets in the game in the 3rd or 4th quarter. Yep I'm going to be greedy, we've pissed around too many years......I want to dominate these guys.

I'd maybe hold off on that.....until after........ we play the team from the south.

I think Bubba will be able to tell the team......."they don't think you can win on the road in the MVFC" as a type of motivator to get the guys amped up for no let down. And it is true, we haven't played on the road yet. It feels like we are transitioning into the next section of the season, the first three were all home games....and we won that section. Nice 10 day rest now.....and starting the next leg of the season. I think the guys will be ready, hope I'm right.

I was thinking that same thing after this game and Otis busting out for 160 and almost 250 rushing as a team. Teams are likely to start crowding the box a bit more, Tommy needs to keep making a lot of the throws he's making and hopefully start hitting a couple more vertical routes. He did have some pretty nice throws tonight though. I remember one cross the field towards the sidelines and he put it perfectly in place for a first down, and the coverage was pretty good. He has really good pocket presence. 0 sacks is a combination of great OL play and him having great presence and getting rid of it when needed. Danny is continuing to be on fire calling plays. I knew eventually he was going to go over the top with Vaughn in there in a running type situation, he was waiting for the perfect spot to do it...and he nailed it. We have run the flea flicker so many times though, it's no surprise and usually the deep guy is double covered. Maybe he is setting up some other play out of the flea flicker for later in the year....not sure. I agree, save Boltmann for the NDSU game, make sure he is fully healthy for one. But also to give a new wrinkle against them. Boltmann on sprint out option with Skokna would be fun to see.

Give props to USD, they played this short game with both on the road and played pretty well.

Tommy hasn’t been sacked once all year, and we only have 5-6 penalties total on three games, that’s amazing. I sure don’t miss Kett’s 10 yard sacks. He did throw a pretty good deep ball though. Let’s see now if we can keep it rolling on the road.

Think I heard 489 yards offense, I like that!

Me either, one big play and we are down
