I didn't see a GDT for this game so starting one for those of us watching online. At least Eversport seems to be working today.

I'm not sure if you are including me in this or not, but to clarify......you said Roughriders suck, and I basically said.....yeah and so does Nodaks. And sorry if I missed your other more detailed reasonings on why you think RR's sucks, I haven't been taking notes and keeping track.

And you don't think Nodaks sucks? I mean seriously.....Nodaks? Man we think people are making fun of us for not having a nickname..........but if we are the University of North Dakota Nodaks........I won't be able to blame them one bit for making fun of that name. I guess the people who wanted it to just stay North Dakota feel so strongly about it....that they are deciding to vote for a ridiculous nickname because it is close to North Dakota. Great logic.

I sent an email as well tonight, I did get a reply back from Peter saying thanks for the email, and he appreciates the feedback. My main thing I emphasized in my email was that I felt whatever the nickname that get chosen, it needs to have 50% or more of the vote.

We really need to land a stud QB. Let's face it, it's the most position in sports, and right now our QB play is probably last in the Big Sky. I'm no expert nor have I analyzed all Big Sky QB's so am kind of just saying it off the cuff, but would any of the other Big Sky teams trade their #1 QB for any of our 3?

Actually didn't they hire consultants whom have done this several times before? I'd think the consultants would have a pretty refined process and could have given a suggestion about declaring beforehand that if second in third are close they will go with three. It should flat out take 50% plus on whatever the final vote is for the new nickname. I think this is absolutely him changing the rules to satisfy Nodak people, and probably to ensure that it ends up being Fighting Hawks. Why a guy heading out the door gets to make this important of a decision is beyond me.

Since the medical redshirt for Joe is not an option, IF he is healthy enough (very close to if not 100%) there is no reason he shouldn't be given a chance. With Bartels play the past two weeks, if Mollberg isn't given a shot it will certainly make me question some things.

Good point, a lot of students are from out of state and had probably never really heard of Roughriders before.

I agree....we need to promote it...it's the best one out of the top two (my personal 1st choice). I saw friends of mine promoting Nodaks on FB all week. I'm for Riders all the way!

Go Riders!!

If they kept it to the top two, and Nodaks was out.....which would you vote for?

I agree.....something just doesn't add up right now.

NC is playing EWU really tough, hope to got we at least beat them so we don't end the year on a 6 game skid.

If we cap off this crappy loss with finding out on Monday we selected Nodaks as our nickname.....might be too much for me to take. In my opinion that nickname is as bad as our secondary.

Bartels actually looked ok on that drive.

I guess I was a little optimistic with my 49-10 final score prediction in the 2nd quarter.

New defensive strategy the rest of the way, just tackle the WR'S before the ball is thrown to minimize it to 5 yard holding penalties.

If only games were 8 minutes long.....we'd be pretty good.

Great, our second best offensive weapon, our punter, is now injured.

Glad I skipped a day of productivity to watch this sh*t show

Our secondary is just what the doctor ordered for a 3rd string first time starter. We are a joke in the secondary.

The guy had two guys all over him, thank goodness he threw it 10 yards over or it woulda been a pick. Triple option teams have a more potent passing attack than we do.....pathetic.

Wow let's just hang it up in the air into triple coverage lol

We are probably all going to be even bigger.....temporary idiots for the next two hours if the game keeps going like this
