They said NDSU has 13 guys out to injuries and the backups came in and did not skip a beat.  What does UND need to do to get to that level? 

Must have been a mis-statement...UND gets exponentially more injuries than any other program - the ones that cannot be overcome, too.

If they had our injury situation from this year they would be hurting make no mistake. They do, however, have much much better team depth.

is it time to move away from fcs auto bids from conferences and just pick the top 16?  fcs playoffs football is comical

I think they can drop auto bids and/or place more emphasis on conference strength.  Wofford sucked and their conference has sucked since Appt St. and Ga. Southern left.  That was the 7th ranked team?  What a joke.  Youngstown St., not in the play-offs, obviously would have been a better game in a rematch compared to that horsecrap Wofford team.  If the MVFC has 7-8 teams in the play-offs, then so be it, maybe they should.

If there was one answer for that there would be alot of championship caliber programs around.

Not just a time element, otherwise the oldest programs and/or longest tenured coaches would all be champions ...

Program depth me you work hard because there is someone to take your place and you would be riding the pines... show up on time, clean, practice/play hard....

after depth other things will turn around

NDSU had 2 sophomores and 1 redshirt freshman in the starting lineup.  Nobody on their most recent two-deep was playing high school ball last season.............

Not NDSU's fault they have built proper depth. 

 

Bubba has been at UND for 4 + seasons ....

Yet, true freshmen are still making the two-deep? Sounds like a lot of throwing darts in the dark and hoping for some luck. 

That is, if Bubba doesn't have so many recruits quit, leave, or just plain not play well then UND doesn't have to play true freshmen.

He's had 3 true recruiting classes.

It's been mentioned many times, he apparently just can' comprehend Bubba's first true recruiting class would have only been sophomores this year and that the lack of food depth in the upper classes isn' necessarily on him, other than perhaps not bringing in transfers. Which the transfer thing is kinda funny..... you get many people say that transfers and juco isn' the way to go and they often don' work out, but yet then are disappointed when we don't have more.

so is Bubba robbing the cupboard  by pulling red shirts for short term results to appease a frothy fanbase?

With his play calls being great? Yes. A coach can overcome talent with great play calling. He can also accentuate talent with play calling. Those plays I'm talking about would've been successful with anyone running them. 

Our OC has me a bit confused----I dont know WHY we pass the ball on second and inches. He has done this twice in the last two games.

With past bitching by Bison for having too many Valley teams in their bracket really paid off this year.....JMU got hosed for being one seed...pretty obvious 3 of 4 (JMU, Weber, and SDSU can throw in N. Iowa as they would have at least given the Bison a physical game) best teams in tournament are in JMU side of bracket....after watching Sam Houston the last two weeks Bison would get a better game from their backups!!!
