    2018 Season

    He’s been one of our two best lineman. He isn’t going anywhere. Both Nate and Matt will be needed going forward.

    2018 Season

    Holm is playing at an All American level.
  3. The Griz are now favored by 4.
  4. We stop Sneed we stop their offense. He's a stud, though, even with their depleted OL it will be a challenge to contain him.
  5. "Easily" beat Montana? I'd suggest listening to the 360 podcast where they interview Colter Nuanez. He's watched every one of their games this year and he predicts the game to be a "pick 'em" type affair with UND winning by a sliver. I just want to win. Whether we "boat race" them or beat them by one. I just want to win.
  6. They have either 3 or 4 walk ons starting on the O line.
  7. Excellent podcast about the Griz game: https://undfootball360.com/news/podcast-montana-vs-north-dakota-with-colter-nuanez/

    Also: Pass Protection. The aforementioned offensive line/tight end group has been able to keep QB Nate Ketteringham upright for the majority of the season. They have only allowed 6 sacks on the season in 146 attempts. The slow-developing play-action game that UND likes to use has had time to formulate due to the play of the lineman and tight ends.

    On to Bye

    Apparently that’s not allowed with the people on this forum. Nothing is ever good enough. Notice how many times the word “need” is included in game predictions on this forum. “Need” to win by a certain amount. “Need” to get the ball to certain players. “Need” to win big in order to excite the fan base. The only thing this team “needs” to do is win, not satisfy artificial milestones on a fan forum. And when they do win I hope you all can set aside whatever frustrations you had during the game and enjoy the victory. Today wasn’t a perfect day but it sure was a good day.
  10. Hyperbole much? You must be the life of the party!
  11. It's called "Hawk Walk" and it's normally about 2 hours before game time. It's really cool for those who haven't participated.
  12. Some quick hitters after returning from Houston.... - Offense looked good in the first half and half of the 4th quarter. Third quarter was tough to watch. Credit to Rudy for 2/3 of the game and the players for executing. It's a step in the right direction. - Thankfully the defense played great and gave the offense a chance to win it at the end. You train all winter, spring, and summer for the chance to have a game winning drive in the 4th quarter and they did it. - You train all winter, spring, and summer for the chance to stop a game winning drive in the 4th quarter and they did that, too. - Nice to see these kind words from the SH head coach: "Their tailback is phenomenal, their quarterback is really good, their offensive line is great, they’re very well coached…and you know that’s kind of where it’s at." - Most thought we'd need to get some turnovers to win. We didn't and still won. - Rudy's third down call on the game winning drive, a swing pass to Brady, looked from my angle like it was going to score. It appeared to be a great call that wasn't executed. - Ket struggles with quick outs; hopefully he relaxes going forward and sets his feet. It appears he's not comfortable throwing it; perhaps he's thrown a pick six with that throw at Sac St. and it spooked him? I'm not sure. - On the other hand his bomb in the 4th quarter was gorgeous. - What else can you say about Holm's play yesterday. He was fantastic. - Kostich is the best recruiter on the staff, the kids relate to him as well as any coach on the team, and he should absolutely not be fired, but he has to get the special teams fixed immediately. I'm not talking about the place kicker; that's not on Kostich, that's more because the kid is a true freshman and D1 is a big step up from HS. I think he'll be fine (there has already been improvement). I am talking about the other facets of the special teams. From my view the player off of the line doubled the SH player coming up the middle with Aplin instead of hitting the guy on the outside which led to the block. As we all know normally the percentages say we should lose that game when you get a punt blocked and we are fortunate the the offense and defense picked up the slack (especially the defense immediately after the block). - I was at both the Washington game and the SHSU game and there is no comparison between the wide receivers at both schools. I'd take SH's wide outs here at UND in a heart beat, but the Washington WRs are heads and shoulders better than SH's and it's nowhere close in my opinion. - We were missing Mortel, Waletzko got hurt during the game, and we still gained 187 yards on the ground. Hats off to the OL who look like they are beginning to play as a unit even while rotating players. Maybe last year had something to do with the fact that the line had 4 first year starters? I'll answer that, yes, that's why they struggled last year. Lots to improve on this year but they are headed in the right direction. - Who would have thought we'd have 76 more total yards of offense than SH? Amazing effort by the defense. - I was pretty surprised at all of the negative comments on this site following perhaps the biggest win of the D1 era here at UND. I'm glad there is passion but my goodness. Enjoy it for a while, everyone. This was the game that many here said they "had to have," and they did it. The mood at the game was absolute elation and joy, and to come here and see complaining was a real head shaker. - Beat ISU!!
  13. It’s this type of non emotional commentary that I hope to see more of going forward. Great post.
  14. I agree that’s a great way to use him. But yet, against the #9 team in the nation, had had over 100 yards primarily lining up in the backfield. He’s so good it doesn’t matter where we put him.

    Sam Houston

    I believe Ngyun is practicing this week, although I don't know if he will be available on Saturday or not.
  16. I have an interested party that is looking to begin allocating some resources for tax purposes before the end of the calendar year. They are excited to receive the updates to the Help Bubba site. Thank you for your work on this!
  17. They played Utah like this last year.
  18. That's correct. It's the same subscription as all of the big schools have - Alabama, Ohio State, etc.

    Starting QB

    Anything else would be a surprise.
