star2city Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 6-5 One home loss to Cal Poly and 3 away losses at SFA, UC-Davis, and UCA In a building year, anything more would be outstanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said 7-4 because I think they should be able to win 1 more of those games. The best chances are either at SFA or Davis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking along the same lines as you, although USD will be tough. Also, you can call me crazy (and many of you did last year when I said UMD would have won the NCC and would give Grand Valley all they could handle ) but UND will have its hands full with Sioux Falls. Yes, USF is NAIA but they have a great team. I really like the job Faison has done so far, but scheduling a team like USF was not wise at this point in the transition.

According to Massey, if Sioux Falls was a DII today they'd be in the top 25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you say Sioux Falls is somewhat like some of the Winona teams of the early 2000's--little depth and some pretty big weaknesses but enough skill position players to stay with deeper and more talented teams?

Actually, I think USF is built a bit different than what you would typically see from a lower division team. They are big on the oline (like 6-3, 300 kind of big) and they should be able to physically challenge UND more than you would expect from an NAIA team. UND's advantage should be speed and depth at the skill positions, but if they don't come ready to play this game will be a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brucesky02 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Another thing to think about - we're kinda USF's "Texas Tech" this year. I just went to their athletics page and there was a splash page devoted just to the game between us with a number to call for tickets...and it's an away game for them.

UND92,96 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I just read the transcript from Mick Garry's weekly USD chat on the Argus Leader web page, and he picked a score of 34-10 in the UND-USF game. No word on which team was going to have the 34, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
