UND-FB-FAN Posted August 29, 2017 Posted August 29, 2017 I fear that the attitude of most on this board mirrors the attitude of the UND coaches and players: Utah 31 UND 3 If UND actually believes they are a top 10 FCS team, and plays accordingly, it will be a lot closer. Quote

I sure hope the players and coaches believe they can compete and win for god sake, otherwise stay the hell home. We get it, UND is a huge underdog but go out there and give them your best shot and see what happens. 1 Quote

shep Posted August 29, 2017 Posted August 29, 2017 Hoping for a great Hawks experience and dear God, no injuries. If they can keep it close somehow early, that breeds some confidence. Utes 28- UND 12 Quote

My question is can they keep up the enthusiasm up, if they get down like 3 scores? I hope they play hard the full game, never give up. And that has nothing to do with being FCS or FBS... Oregon quit on the game, when we blew them out 2 years ago. Every team runs this peril... Quote

Sioux94 Posted August 29, 2017 Posted August 29, 2017 Utah - 34 UND - 17 I agree with those that have stated it's about matchups, and this is just not the perfect matchup for a big upset, however I'm still hoping it somehow happens. Below are a list of my four things that if they went the other way would have given us a much better chance at the upset. (Of course #5 would have been if we had Grady, but I won't mention that ) 1. They didn't get an NFL caliber WR transfer 2. We didn't lose a possible NFL draft pick CB 3. They didn't change to more of a passing offense this year. I think if they ran the same offense as last year, which was more running we could have gave them a few problems with our experienced DL and their inexperienced OL. 4. They weren't starting the younger more mobile QB, he is going to make a few big scramble plays. Quote
Midwestern Hawk Posted August 29, 2017 Posted August 29, 2017 I'll go out on a limb. UND shocks the football world. 27-23 upset. Und jumps out to early lead, defense creates multiple turnovers, Studsrud and co have no turnovers. After watching Portland state/BYU on Saturday if PSU creates a couple of turnovers they win. Quote

BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted August 29, 2017 Posted August 29, 2017 UND plays with Utah till middle of the third quarter, then Utah's depth shows it's advantage. UND losses 37 - 20. No serious injuries for either team. Quote
northernraider Posted August 29, 2017 Posted August 29, 2017 Utah 38 UND 17 I also predict i will be in about 6 deep by the third quarter. 1 Quote

I was taught to never, give up, never give in, the cup is always half full. This is Utah, not Bama. I just think UND's ground game will eventually where out the Utes. I am a big, big believer in Bubba. Quote
Ozzie82 Posted August 29, 2017 Posted August 29, 2017 Many of the most important ingredients are there for UND to have a shot against a superior team: they don't typically turn the ball over, a senior QB, a strong defense. I'm hoping for a couple of breaks - if so we'll be in the game. Quote

My cup is half full as well but I'm not about to say Utah is ripe for the picking like Wyoming was. That's all I'm saying. Quote
