Sioux>Bison

We are not better than our record based on our first 3 halves of football. We need to play like the fourth one to retain any respect. On the right track finally. Gotta keep it up

Great call. Go for the win while we had the best chance. Too bad we didn't execute. Great 2nd half effort

They are doing everything to keep us in this game. We need to take advantage and tie it up.

Time to keep the momentum going, show we deserve to be #25.

Wow getting killed on the pass. Nice block in the back on their long run

Yikes our punt was almost blocked and then gave them a 71 td

The six so called burial sites were right over the existing northern border pipeline. How can we believe anything they are claiming when they blatantly are lying about those sites. Back in the 80's when they installed the natural gas line they consulted many tribes about sacred sites along the route. Standing Rock had no comment back then but now all of a sudden there is an issue? How are these people getting to the protest? I'm pretty sure almost 100% are driving fossil fuel powered cars. Most of them use petroleum based products everyday of their lives. Don't bite the hand that feeds you and be a hypocrite. To top it all off the tribal chairmen owns a GAS station right next to the protest site. He is making tons of money off fossil fuels and this pointless protest.

Those injuries were big but can't sink the team any worse. The offense already sunk itself with or without Clive in the last game. The defense can still prosper with out Reyes even though it makes us more vulnerable

I don't think the season is over after this first game. Not even close. If the offense can get it together they can make a game out of BG. We need to get rid of these early jitters. Look at our game last year against a top defense as in NDSU. They made us look down right foolish. This game was no different. We need to get back on track and get the offense going. We easily could have won this game but now we need to play better the rest of the year. Thank baby Jesus that we have a great defense!

I'm pretty sure football has huge potential for being on ESPN highlights/scores to national broadcasts. If moo u can make it big nationally Then UND can too. Look at their NFL recruits making news too. football at UND will only get bigger and better. man our hockey only crowd is annoying. Women's hockey is good for developing Olympians in a sport that no one watches or cares about on the women's level.

Ha they are lucky, but I really like putting southern teams in their place. i didn't know there was a game tonight until I saw a post on another forum.

Fun game to watch. I can see why the Betty was packed last night

Men's football and women's hockey is no comparison. One has fans and one does not. One has huge national exposure potential and one does not. Football will never go from UND. Women's hockey is a huge waste of money and should be cut because colleges should start focusing on their main mission, educate students. I could care less if UND had less student athletes because in the end it doesn't affect the education of students.

There are only 4 realistic sports to cut that the Big sky doesn't sponsor: mens swimming diving womens swimming diving womens softball womens hockey w hockey would be the easiest to cut to make the goal of 1.4 million but not many donors would be happy, i.e. Marvin type of donors we could easily move to the summit and the mvfc but an invite from he mvfc is unlikely. We could possibly join the WAC fbs and join the summit for the remaining sports but it is uncertain when that league will be built. I feel very content in the big sky and we just need to cut non core sports. everyone was up in arms when eddy announced program cuts out of a sudden, and now everyone is getting mad at Kennedy for taking the process slower and by notifying the stakeholders that some more sports may be cut. I don't see these future cuts as a negative and see them as a very good decision for UND's future.

I'm pretty sure Philly needs more help than at QB! There was a ton of talent available. I just can't understand what they are thinking.

But but but what about NDSU.? They are the best football team out there and now they don't get a chance to move up. What about the big 12 wrestling affiliation??? enough of this #bringonbamma bs it needs to change to #bringonbig12

He was the second overall pick and he gets put on the bench. I don't see the reason or value in that when they could have drafter a starter at any other position.

I overheard some bison fans today saying Wentz didn't look too great in his first preseason game. I bit my tongue and didn't say anything. I had a feeling he wouldn't be ready for the pros right away, but could be a big time player in the future once he gets used to the fast pace.

I got pictures it's comparable to the student entrance when they open the doors for the gopher games

Huge lines at the bookstore still! People every where are pumped to get some merchandise with the awesome new logo!

So how did he do?

Yeah I don't think your game attendance will go down drastically for a while unless you see losing seasons which is not very likely. When I talk about your bandwagon fans I am talking about the casual fans that watch maybe a few games a year and think they are real Bison fans. They are the same people who travel to Frisco but never attend a previous NDSU game all year. They also could not name a NDSU coach or player from the 90's or 00's. I wish those bison fans would push NDSU for an annual game. I wouldn't care if UND lost 10 straight the game still needs to happen.

Great article

Yet how many bandwagon fans have you gained after the last 6 years? 100% more 50%? Once the playoff success goes away will you retain those fans? I see not. A majority of the people in the state want this game every year just like it used to be and just like it should be.

We will see if NDSU thinks they are too good to play a low life like UND when they start having mediocre seasons. They will be crawling back sooner or later! its the typical NDSU vibe of thinking they are superior to every one else, explains who their fans think they can compete in a big 12 type of league. Keep dreaming!
