How well do you think our run defense could do against them? How many punts of ours would get blocked by them? Kind of Kidding about the punts. I don't know how much a guy could tell from one half of tv football but it's a good barometer to tell how close we are. Quote

They are very talented up front and with our OL this year running would have been tough. Offensively they have a lot of athletes and running back is a dude. They are a very good and well coached football team that will continue to reload with FBS transfers and I'm sure very good recruits. Quote

It's only one game but JMU looked really good. The TE for Youngstown will play on Sundays as will the RB and atleast two of JMU's. DBs. Quote
Sioux95 Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 If we played JMU, It could of been a long day for us. Our receivers don't seem to catch balls in traffic very well, and JMU can stop the run. We have a ways to go yet. Quote

UND played CAA opponents Stony Brook and Richmond real close. UND needs to improve in several areas in order to compete for a national title, which should be the expectation around here, but to say they have a ways to go isn't entirely accurate, in my opinion. UND just went 9-3, won their conference, and return the majority of the team and all the coaching staff. Title aspirations in 2017. 1 Quote

southpaw Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 Congrats to NDSU. They won some sort of trophy yesterday right? I mean, I kept seeing posts about how great they were because they bookended their 5 national titles with playoff losses to the eventual champion. Surely, they should get rings for that. 2 1 Quote

This sounds awfully petty. As if no UND hockey fan has ever sought consolation at the end of a season by noting the eventual tournament fate/success of the team that knocked out the Sioux. The Bison run is epic, and historic, and deserving of as many superlatives as any NDSU fan can muster...let them be. 1 Quote

Who are you friends with? My social circle is about 75% NDSU alumni and I haven't seen much of anything even acknowledging the game yesterday. Quote

Yah, I heard them reference NDSU early on, for obvious reasons, and I also saw the Fargo media literally counting how many times they did it. Like little fan boys. Quote

That is super weird. They get paid by twitter views? There aren't any clicks on a simple tweet. Anyways, your missing the point. They are supposed to be journalists and instead are acting like rubes counting the number of times NDSU is mentioned. That is super lame. Quote

NDSU bias aside, the media hasn't been about reporting the "news" objectively in decades. Maybe they never were. They'll talk about whatever gets people clicking, sharing, reading and talking about their content. And yes, people can get paid to post on twitter if they have enough followers. Same with facebook, instagram and YouTube. 1 Quote
