geaux_sioux Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 Last time they came here they whooped us something awful. Last year we whooped them something awful. Both teams are polar opposites from last season. Apparently they play defense now. What a novel idea. They played a really good Weber team close and hung 40+ on SUU and ISU. Should be a solid opponent. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 I thought the FB game was just filler between VB in the morning and hockey at night on Saturday! #crushnutsacst Quote

Sioux94 Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 That is definitely good news. Sac State seems to be much improved from last year, hoping we can pull out a win at home! Will be curious if we see a little more JJ earlier on.....not just waiting until mostly in the 4th quarter. Quote

UND-1 Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 How about last week when they ran the ball on 3rd and 12? "Our QB can't throw so we are going to just give it back to you - the QB who can throw is holding a clipboard." Quote

And It wasn't 3rd and short either. Quote

I am hoping/expecting for them to come out with a lot of purpose and passion, like they did when we played UNC at home (which also followed an ugly loss on the road). If they do that, and play a pretty clean game.....and Sac State still beats us.....I won't be happy, but I can at least live with it. Last week I said it was going to be JJ and Izzy's true coming out party, it was a little bit for JJ. This week lets hope they hit Izzy deep for a big play and TD! Quote

77iceman Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 I'm driving 400 miles in the morning. I'm just hoping to see that one play that makes me go "hey, that was worth seeing in person". (pick 6, strip sack, kick off return for td . . . anything) 1 Quote

Leaving 9 week old child at home, that's a for sure win. Dip'n dots as mentioned can be very satisfying. Beer and good weather this time of the year, positive. Other than that, I can't think of anything. Quote

Beer and good weather this time of the year, positive. Other than that, I can't think of anything. I had super low expectations when we played UNC after that disaster at Davis, but we actually played pretty well against UNC minus the last 5 minutes for the second quarter and got the W. So this time I do have some expectations for this week, but maybe I should just go back to setting the bar extremely low.....leaving potential to be surprised if something good happens, and not too disappointed if it doesn't go well. Although I know come game time I'll be wanting and looking forward to seeing some good things! Quote
shep Posted October 21, 2017 Posted October 21, 2017 Looking forward to see if Canady, Hunt and JJ continue to improve. I'm optimistic about next year and I hope this game ends with a W, but I'm not getting down if it doesn't. I suspect Blubaugh has a target on his back and we get to see how he handles it. Frankly, I wish Studs well, but would love to see if Z can impress. That first pass to Mercer is still on my mind. And I'll pay more attention to the OLine than I have in the past. Lots of young dudes there. Quote

What goes? I am trying to get this on-line video going but can't get it. So, not a happy camper. I would have done some search for a bar playing the game and driven there....just sayn' Good Luck tomorrow Quote

By way of Webster ,the word play means to engage in activity for enjoyment and recreation rather than a serious or practical purpose. Rudys "play" calling comes across very recreational and not serious. sac st 49-28 Quote

Lots of young dudes there. UND needs to have some pride and win this home game. These young guys have a few games under their belt now and it sounds like the ol' senior QB will be starting for UND. I strongly dislike hearing some sound like a parent to a 5 year old in a soccer game; there needs to be some damn expectations around here for football. Otherwise, UND will have one season like they did in 2016 every ten seasons if they're lucky. Crank up the expectations, work your ass off, and play to win every game. Those are the expectations set forth by Bubba last season; there's no reason to backpedal from that now.
