    Still should have been caught, he bobbled right away

    That's the type of play you have to jsve in a game like this. That is the type of catch NDSU always makes.

    ESPN plus and Midco are blocked in Mexico.....F me. At least that big sky network thing we had in 2015 worked in Mexico back then, was one good thing about it. Will have to listen on radio. 

    LFG Hawks!!

    Depends on the defense.  Issac has this.  We don't what bison will throw at us.  Issac will adjust to win.  When the players excecute we win.

    Fruechte has been very good adjusting to.... and taking advantage of what the defense is giving us. Hopefully he will be on from the start and it won't take a quarter or so to adjust.

    Two on Bo.
    Seven or eight in the box.
    Sounds like a chance for Dennis to finally show off his speed, instead of taking crushing blows across the middle.

    Exactly. My thoughts earlier in the week were another WR needs to make big plays this week. NDSU is well coached, we run the ball and we throw to Bo, that is what they will focus on. Not that Bo won't get 4-5 receptions yet anyway though. Bo will still be Bo.

    2024 UND Football

    Talked to a guy at the swim up bar this morning from Iowa St. who was at the UND game, he was very complimentary of our team. Since we played them tough he said he has watched our scores the last few weeks. He actually even complemented our QB. He also of course asked about Bo and said how good he was. He said it was pretty hot that day, nice to know we played in that heat and our team never looked gased.

    I think it may end up being a similar story to the last couple of games, they load the box to stop the run. It's going to come down to if we are able to hit those big passes plays once again.

    Not feeling good about this game

    My early feeling is we have a team that is capable of winning, but at home I think their offense makes a few more plays and we can't quite keep up.  That said though this game is huge for us and our team seems more confident this year...hoping they come through big on Saturday.

    Poor timing on a trip as I'm heading to Cabo Thursday....so will be watching from the beach on my phone. We beat a ranked Portland State team on the road back in 2015 or 16 and watched that one from beach in Cancun.... hoping for similar results Saturday!

    Spotlight is on the UND defense and Bubba ball (or maybe now Schwenzfeier ball?). I worry NDSU and Miller will score at will, and despite how good Fruechte’s offense has been the past month, UND can’t keep up with open floodgates in the Fargodome. 

    I would agree a lot of it will be on the defense.  Our offense has honestly been so bizarre.....we complete like 8 passes but they go for 250 yards. I can't tell if it's smoke and mirrors yet or not. If we don't hit on those big passes our offensive numbers almost drop in half.  Those big passes have worked........because everyone since Montana is stacking the box. Will those big passes still hit against a better defense, I hope so.

    I am hoping we still have some success on the ground even if they do stack the box. Last year they didn't adjust to stop the run so we kept running it down their throats. I think this year they will come out and primarily try and stop the run and force us to continue to execute those long passes.

    We cannot afford any dropped interceptions-given the chance we need to make the play

    Or dropped passes by our WR's. Offense and defense both need to capitalize on big plays when they are there for the taking. No missed sacks that turn into 40 yard Touchdown type of things. Need a great tackling day!

    Love to see Sioux get ground game going early and wear down that Bison D.  Control the clock, tempo, etc.  mix in a few looks downfield to Belquist to keep them honest.  Definitely have weapons on offense to hang with the Fargo Cows.

    Think we may need a big day from another WR. I think they will key on stopping the run....and Bo.

    I’ve never felt since being in FCS that UND had a chance playing in Fargo previously. They absolutely have the talent this year to win. Will they? It’ll take a complete game, which seems unlikely. But they have a chance.

     

    Prior to the season I was thinking NDSU was going to return the favor and spank us in their house....3 score type of victory. Our offense has shown we can control clock and move the ball though.  While I'd still have to give them the edge being at home,  think we have a chance. Would agree with Geau....a lot of it will depend on how well our defense plays....and can we force another turnover or two.
