Leave them in and let them play, at that point they are playing with house money and see what needs to be corrected. Besides, why get the second and third stringers injured? We might need that depth some day I think Harris needs a pick 6 against Washington to get his name even further back on the radar Hope he is back to 100%, not sure for our sake but for his sake and a potential shot at the next level.

Hambone Posted June 13, 2018 Posted June 13, 2018 I know this has been discussed, but it will be interesting to see how this affects UND this season since it has now officially been adopted. https://www.ncaa.org/about/resources/media-center/news/di-football-offer-more-participation-opportunities Quote

So basically a redshirt can play in up to 4 games and keeps his redshirt right? Man that would have been handy last year, and probably even the last couple of years when we were short on depth. Larson I'm sure would have gotten in and maybe even started 4 games towards the end of last year, would have been a good learning experience for him. I agree that it would probably keep redshirt freshman more engaged as well, knowing they may see some game action. 2 Quote

But, I'd say this season we're the best of the teams that were 3-8 last year, and have a shot at being in top 25 after homecoming! Quote
Fry Bread Posted June 14, 2018 Posted June 14, 2018 Tom Miller was doing a report on each position. I don’t remember seeing one on the defensive line or did I miss it? Quote

No point in getting our starters hurt in what is pretty much an exibition game against a top tier FBS opponent. I agree there is a chance to win any game but we need to focus on games 2-11 that will really make or break our season. Nothing like a bit of optimism to start the season... Quote

Winona State in 2001 was what half full and we won the national title with only one loss. So winning puts butts in the seats may be an excuse but it’s a damn good one. It was that way at NDSU before their dynasty started they didn’t sellout the Fargodome every game in 2011 after their 3 win 2010 season (let alone during that season) and they didn’t fill the dome in their first EVER playoff game at the dome in 2011. So even a football school can stumble in attendance if they start dropping games. Speaking of a history of poor attendance.,...... 1 2 Quote

SWAC teams are notoriously bad as their budgets are rock bottom. They had glory days when the SEC wouldn't take black athletes. The SWAC has been fading for 50 years. Their bands are worth the price of admission though. Quote
