He is number 3 right? Yes he played the last series or two

Was embarrassing again today. Sadly Lance may be a better college QB than their previous three, which is scary. So we going to pull the shirt on Shuster? What was the point of putting him in today. Also the freshman WR. Do the coaches not think they will be here four years from now so they don’t care?

I can’t imagine the life one must have, for someone who never really comes in here to seek out this board to make a post after the game. God help me if I seek out a Bison blog board when we beat you guys, just to make a post to make myself feel better. That’s when I know my life is at an all time low.

Yes

Mama I hate to say it, but can you please give the whole Juice U thing in every comment you make a rest. It just makes us look desperate and silly. Obviously you can do what you want, but it just makes us look silly to say it in every post.

OL and DL need to step up and keep it even in the trenches, win the turnover battle, and capitalize on every opportunity and also make every FG attempted. Me played at Washington last year, there should be zero intimidation factor. Noise will be a little bit of an issue but I know they have been preparing for it.

So likely 3 starters out for us, biggest of which might be Holm who is our best corner. Week 2 and three starters out...freaking sucks. We need some breaks to go the other way not against us.

Was there anything in his post about UND having a dominant OL?

I could actually care less what NDSU fans think at this point. Lets just knock them off, their players would definitely hate us by next year and I'm thinking the rivalry is back on....and nobody could debate. I've had enough of who thinks its a rivalry and who doesn't at this point, I'd rather just talk about the game itself.

Speaking of conclusions, didn't three years or so ago you say that Wentz was......'meh' at QB, as in not that great? All of this coming from the guy who at times tries to act somewhat impartial and comes to the UND site because has no friends on BV. But this week he's all about "his boys' (meaning the NDSU team) and puffing his chest out and talking trash. Thanks again Johnboy for your 365 day interest in North Dakota football.

Any word if Holm and Rooney will be back this week?

Perhaps, but the crowd and atmosphere will undoubtedly be a lot louder and crazier than for SDSU and UNI games I would guess,. And certainly 10 times more so than when you played USD. The players will be able to sense that I'm sure, and that is why it is highly unlikely NDSU will play flat against UND. I don't think you are 30 points better than us, I would take that bet if I was able to.

So you think this UND isn't as good as a USD team that sucked, alright then. I think we are better than that USD team, but it's highly unlikely you are going to play horribly against us. Even though you don't think it's a rivalry game I'm sure your coaches will have your team more focused than that week against USD.

Unfortunately I was driving from AZ to ND this weekend so didn't see the game. Saw the post it was being replayed on Midco but Kett was just taken out before i turned it on. I believe Kett was 19-25 with 1 TD, and from what I've heard there was at least one drop in the first half. Sounds pretty efficient. 2nd Quarter sounds like offense didn't do much, but coming out in the third quarter Kett drove them down the field but Zimm finished it off. Was the offense rolling more in 2nd half because they came out more inspired, or was it really that Zimm made some big plays? Maybe Zimm takes more shots down field therefore had more big plays, or did Danny just open it up a little bit? Thank god we have Zimm and finally a legit 2nd string QB. We might have a QB controversy if Zimm plays really well the next 2-3 weeks, which I hope he does!

Thanks got it!

Can you post the link? I'm looking on Midco but not finding it.

Is there a link to the game anywhere?

I’m hoping somebody can post some updates on here today

A Fire Bubba thread will have been started by the time the clock hits 00:00 if that score happens!

I'm glad SU has a cake walk week 1, let their new QB and other first time starters hopefully get a little over confident.

They have one of the biggest and best OL, and our DL is smaller than we'd usually like it to be....and inexperienced. They might be able to run it down our throats. Lets hope our DL steps up.

41-17 UND

I hope we are up comfortably in the second half against Drake and I'd like to see Griebel returning punts in the 2nd half to see how he does.

No doubt, with all of the options we have I thought we'd have somebody a little more explosive back there.

I saved this for my Friday night entertainment tonight So excited for this season I can hardly stand it. To I think it was Bison06 who was questioning why we are excited about having a first time OC and why we think it will be better and we are excited about it. Listen at the 58 minute mark where Kelly Howe talks about how the defense sent a safety on a blitz on our audible because they knew exactly what we were going to do, and they snuffed us for a two yard loss. Even our audibles were so predictable. That pretty much sums up the last few games of the year, well and a lot of Rudy's tenure as OC.
