Did anyone notice the kick-off coverage was good last year, it helped having Will Ratelle running down as he basically filled 2 lanes. And Saturday.....kick-off coverage was good as I noticed Reyes making a tackle. Some special teams are as good as the guys running down the field and that is improving with depth on the roster. I don't know if anyone has ran down at the college level on kick-off coverage but it's not rocket science. The point is the better athletes make the plays, maybe it's on the coaches to get the right guys out there without jeopardizing key players on defense, it's a balancing act. Our kicking and punting positions should be wide open next year with some competition as I wasn't impressed with either one on a consistent basis. (I am not saying our current guys can't improve, so maybe the same guys with better performance)

Overall their punter was so crappy I'd rather just put 3 guys back to fair catch a 25 yard punt than risk the ball hitting the ground and rolling. Why do we need a block when the net punt is so minimal anyway, bad risk/reward model.

Severe depression until my wife said, 'quit being a pussy'. Reminds me of the Michigan vrs. Ohio St. game some. Gotta move forward, keep building and fighting. This is a hard time for the Seniors as their whole lives have revolved around athletics on the field and now that's gone. Be sure to reach out to these guys if you can.

That's right, break the chain, no goodwill or support from Alumni to current students to help support the team, that's how to build a program and support. Such a moronic statement.

Just did 60.(tickets) We got this!!

"My oh My" you guys are starting to nit pick........

Not rationalizing, just know personally 15 folks that will be in NY that made most football games this year. And those 15 folks have family and friends that went to football games because of those folks. So just a 1st hand account. I totally agree with the rest of your post.

I am guessing the New York hockey game is affecting the football game by over 1,000 butts in seats. Just tragic timing......many will be watching from New York.

I had a pretty good seat for that game-

Is that possible??

Regardless we need to send the winner his photos and a gift card-

Need some hot cocoa and some play-doh? Considering the contributions to America (or lack there of) from a large portion of the democratic voting base I don't give a rip about the popular vote!!

I am with you. It would look bad to put the #9, #10, #11, #12 seed on the road. For the most part, these guys should know enough to not let it happen.

Kids should have to pay out of pocket for crap like this. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/11/16/suck-it-up-lawmaker-wants-to-cut-funding-for-schools-coddling-students-over-trump.html

Did the selection committee say they are going to seed 9 - 24? If we end up 9 aren't we looking at a team currently around 20 - 26 in the polls? And there sits Montana and UNI. Cal Poly, too but we played them in the regular season. Sunday is going to be intense!!

Totally agree. Red Pepper 19 is the JV of Trolling. Maybe take some time off, regroup, get some better materials, prepare better.......

Broken record here - UND will place a bid but private supporters can pledge funds to increase the bid. If a private donor writes a check for $1 Million (exaggerated) we would be guaranteed a home game. Montana is a high bidder historically based on attendance, they don't need private funds. I think UND and SDSU hold similar hands, so much depends on the turn and the river, private pledges.

Of course you are going to homer pick Beau and we'll homer pick Bubba. I think Bubba gets it based on EWU having a recent track record of success while UND had a break out year and that's a more interesting story. Just my read on it. To be Honest, this honor means very little to Bubba in the grand scheme of things. Best of Luck in the play-offs.

It's pretty much insane to have the top 3 spots on this list.

What's the injury report on SU? I have heard RB's are dinged. A good d-line guy was lost, and even us UND guys know about DeLuca, he is fun to watch. Is your left tackle blocking anyone, yet, he sure wasn't game #1. Thanks-

I thought Holm should of taken 1-2 more steps to try and punch the ball out thru the end zone instead of diving at the 10??? That's what I was thinking when he was chasing him down. http://www.nfl.com/videos/buffalo-bills/0ap2000000148850/27-Leon-Lett-fumble-in-Super-Bowl-XXVII

Are we becoming a 'darling' to the pollsters?? The momentum seems to be building and peaked at 7 or 8? I think we can represent that spot well but need to get healthy to do so. AJ on the line, Stanley at WR, our QB, Seibel (hurt ego), Taj, even Santiago is a bit banged up as I chatted with him after the game.

NAU receivers caught a lot of balls in traffic, too, just shows that's part of the game. It will be fun watching our young WR's bulk up a little.

EW has a better quality loss vs. NDSU......you don't know how this works, yet??

And a sell-out Bison Bandwagoner.....that didn't take long to come out! You probably liked the Vikings for the 1st few weeks in the NFL, too.
