Sioux>Bison

This is awesome. Good for them

We will not be a playoff team with zero passing game. Look at the bison today. They drive down the field and win on a big pass play. We will not be at the elite level until we find that kind of pass game. We are lucky we still have a chance at the playoffs this far into the season

Today shows us what an average QB and a good passing offense can do against our defense. This is what the bison did and isu was the next team to do this to us. I loved being 4-1 but we never were as good as that shows. We have a good future ahead but we still need to work on things and try out other players .

Today shows us that luck cannot support wins all year against mediocre opponents. Let's get real and realize this was the second best offense we have played this year. We are still young and made some big mistakes with the turnovers. I think we played very well in the first half despite the TOs. That late half drive by studs was very promising. We have a good team but it will take a while to become a playoff one. I only see one more for sure win the rest of the year and the rest will be tough games that we could easily lose. I honestly didn't think we were a 4-1 type of team today and we played more like a 2-3 team. It's pretty sad to see us lose this game in he 4th quarter. If studs is out it will be good to see bartles in action for a full game

sounds like mr shanks needs to quit his whining. He is no more important as an athlete Than a student. He needs to remember who pays his teams bills..... The students. Sounds like he needs to focus on the court and his books and less about what the people on tv say.

Here is what I am thinking for the fighting nodaks logo..... take the fighting Irish guy showing his fists make him less Irish and more Norwegian, dress him in carhart bibs and a flannel shirt, give him some massive muscles and there you have it... Our new logo. Bad ass imoh Fighting Hawks would be sweet minus the lame Hawks part. This should not win because of a Blackhawks logo we can't use. The no nickname crowd wants this more than nodaks north stars? We won't be able to have that famous logo either so no point in picking this. Sundogs? We all know this sucks. roughriders. Unique check. Could be offensive check. Represents nd the best check. I would be ok with this choice.

When I become rich like good ole Ralph I will pay for discounted beer for the students. $2 at half, $1 at end of the third. That should liven the students up! intermission at the Ralph is about as good of time as the game itself. The alerus needs to step it up!

The student section is not technically sold out. It's just blocked off and free tickets are given out at the Union. That section will be blocked off whether all the student tickets get picked up or not.

Our defense cant be winning all of our games with the offense playing mediocre. Yes we have a great running game but can we rely on it all season? What if we play a good defense and they stop the run? Studs passing straight up scares me. We have been straight up lucky that we have won 3 games since Wyoming. These new injuries also worry me on both sides of the ball. We also should not have won after 4 fumbles that need to stop. Idaho state will be a good test for our backups but the real measuring sticks are still ahead. Gotta love 4-1 but not after playing like we did the last 4 weeks.

I think we will win his game but barely. I think this game will show that neither team is at a high enough level to compete against playoff teams. I don't think Portland state has been tested by a good team and may be overrated. With that said if we do win this game we will also become overrated as we will break into the top 25. UND 24 PSU 21

If we can take down cal poly Portland state um or msu then I will change my mind about all these troubles. Don't get me wrong I like being 3-1 to start the season but the three teams we have beat were horendous. We can't be a playoff team without a passing game. Our defense and running game just won't hold up.

well the thing is all a defense has to do to beat us is stop the run. Stop our run like ndsu did and we lose the game with under 100yds total offense. We need to get things going or make a QB change.

It's time to put a real QB in he game. Studs has had enough time to develop game experience and just isn't ready to lead this team. We need to see what bartles or molberg have to bring to the table . Maybe they can jump start the passing game. I don't want to go all year with them on the bench.

Vote for me! I vow to remove moo u alumni from this board on day one of taking office!

My question is why didn't UND take more risk on plays on offense? Stutsrud should have tried to make more plays even if it risked getting picked off. I rather see an offense with 200 yards and 3 picks than 61 yards and no picks. Why was our secondary not taking risks. There were no passes that were close to picks. They never let the bison get behind them but they never really defended a pass. we didn't leave a lot on the field and that's unfortunate

well thanks I guess . Our offense is horrible . We need to play our backups to find something. We may be .500 this year but not because of the offense

This experience in Fargo for me has been great even with losing by 21. No reason this shouldn't be an every year thing. Bison fans have been telling me this day has been busier than usual.

that's the same as we were. We are on the same level as usd. That doesn't say much but this is not the end of the world. Not much we can do when the offense can move down the field. We also can't defend the pass . Lots of work to do but not hat far behind. Keep down this path and we will be there

bison announcers on the radio still calling us the sioux on the radio. Bad news they are up by 21

Already one sioux suck !@#$ sign

this is probably one of the biggest hurdles. Doesn't he own the trademark for hockey?

I agree with this. I really hope they show up next weekend. I don't know how we should have had a 28-0 lead to almost blowing it in the 2nd half. Hopefully it was all mental prep that can be fixed.

drake fg. I love our defense. They are really going to keep us in the game against some good opponents even if our offense struggles at times. We need to get back to running Arrington

Come on sit #22, he's not all we have. This is getting ridiculous

Time to see what our other RB have. Not giving up on Santiago but we have some good Backs that need some reps
