sioux24/7 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Probably been discussed but is there any shot of Wanzek playing? Who will step up in his absence? Cochran? Boltmann probably. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad we made it in, bummed we don't have a home game. However I'm glad we are playing down south and not somewhere in snow and cold as we are now a finesse offense. Hopefully the weather is nice and no wind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old School Guy Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Congrats to the coaches and players on getting into the playoffs. I called them soft mid-season, deservedly so. As predicted by many, 7-4 (me included) was the magic number to make the playoffs. They got it done. Those that want Bubba gone will have to lament for 4 more years. If the Hawks win a playoff game or two, that buys Bubba and staff an additional 4 more years, and deservedly so. It wasn't always pretty, but key wins is what counts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northernraider Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 I'm glad we are in the playoffs, but really hope this isn't an automatic 4 year contract extension for Bubba. Not convinced he is the one to take us the next step from occasional playoff team to annual contender. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special teams blocking a punt vs Montana state is also the only reason we're in the playoffs. Today is a good day. Leave the negative stuff for another time. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he opts to not play he loses lots of credibility in the locker room for his remaining time at UND. If UND beats Nichols they will have an opportunity to do what only team has done in 8 years. No way he sits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very interesting hypothetical scenario, especially with how bad Siegel has played lately. He hasn’t been himself at all. Needs to get the mojo back. We are so much better with Holm out there.

I usually ignore the game threads because of the level of snarky anger, and opinions based emotion and not logic. It’s frustrating for me to read that level of negativity, so I normally skip those threads. But I naively thought that this thread would be a happy celebration of a achievement that’s only happened twice in our D 1 history, about a team that won four of their last five and only lost by 3 to a seeded playoff team on the road to earn a playoff berth. Perfect? Obviously not - much to be improved with this team and program. But I thought today was a day to celebrate a significant accomplishment and look ahead to a team we know nothing about. But for you, and some others, it’s just another day to complain. Can’t we have one bitch free day? Just one? Please? 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxbow6 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Ask Wanzek if he'd play vs NDSU with one arm in a sling if the training staff would let him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Tough decisions for all involved with #6. Not sure if there is a right or wrong answer. -Yes, he has to play in LA. Absolutely need him. -IMHO he has to play if they make it to Fargo. Too much history in the rivalry (there is that word again) for him not to play and for us to not put our best team on the field. *Want to congratulate the team on going unbeaten at home. People didn't show up in the masses to watch them, but they did everything they possibly could have record wise on the turf at the Alerus. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evan might be the best player on our team and his presence makes an enormous difference to the outcome of each game he plays in - or doesn’t. He’s a stud. I wish he’d have played against UNC and I want him to play vs. NDSU if we win this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Green Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 If they are thinking playing Holm against Ndsu assuming they make it I'd just sit him next game. Not willing to burn a whole year of eligibility for what would likely be a loss with or without him. If pull off miracle and beat NDSU he plays rest of year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
