Fry Bread Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I think this coming game the team will not have the benefit of the turnovers handed to them by Montana nor do I think they will get away with the turnovers they committed against Sacramento. They will need to play 60 minutes of real football this coming week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisUND1 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 This game has the excitement of a playoff matchup. Can't wait. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sioux24/7 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Really wish it didn’t fall on the same weekend as the Vegas game. I will be at the tailgate area to watch the second half. Think any sports books would be able to pick up the game? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd hang out at the Orleans and in light of the hockey game, maybe they'd make an effort to get the football game on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm bringing my laptop and streaming it in my hotel room. then head over to the pregame party after. This game is too important. so I have to watch the whole thing! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkoHawks Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 I honestly think it is pretty poor that the champions club's answer to this situation is that we'll show the last hour of the game. At the very least fork over the money to get the sports book to carry it if you can't get that ballroom two hours earlier, or wherever the pregame party is 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geaux_sioux Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Leave it to friends from the cities to schedule their wedding on the biggest football weekend of the season. Their dance better kick ass. I’ll have to bust out the tequila. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like a golfer who is in a slump. The best thing to do is not golf for a while instead of suffering from paralysis by analysis. Earlier this year, talked with a former player who had plenty of insight on kickers. He said it's all mental at this point, appears it's not fixing itself. Not sure what the answer is, but running a fake field goal probably doesn't help it. For what it's worth, he had pretty good ratings from some legitimate kicking camps before he was on campus. Whatever it is, it needs to get fixed. The majority of special team gaffes continue to be execution on the part of individual players. If they can't get it done, the coaches need to figure out who can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might have had a chance to get it changed since the schedules were tweaked when Idaho came back but I don't think the Big Sky was looking to do UND any favors but then and rearrange multiple games.

siouxfb Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 A huge shift the last few weeks in the offense has been the WRs catching the balls they should. Early in the year we had numerous drops a game that killed drives. If we catch the ball well on Saturday we will be able to move the ball ane score enough points to win the game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defensively and ST they are superb Offensively they look average to poor. They lost a lot of offensive talent off of last years team.

UNDBIZ Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 I'm not sure Weber is better than Idaho State overall, but defensively, this will be the best team we've played since Washington. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNDBIZ Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Weber gave up 28 to UNC, 28 to NAU, and 24 to MSU. We gave up 13 to UNC, 14 to UM, and 15 to Sac St. I expect those trends to continue.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustin Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Don't know much about Weber State, other than that they are ranked highly in the polls - is their defensive strength the run game or the passing game? What kind of offensive scheme will Rudy need to keep Weber's defense off-balance? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if Weber's offense is their weakness, I would tend to agree that UND's defense could hold them to just a few scoring opportunities.
