I just don't get the love affair with UNI. Talented, sure ... but didn't they lose to SDSU at home? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 No to be a wet blanket (which means I'm about to be): Everything UND has done to date only ensures a 2-6 season at worst. Lots and lots of work left to do. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdub27 Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 3 minutes ago, The Sicatoka said: On NDSU's last play of first half (the jump ball that worked) it looked like the QB put everything, and I mean everything, he had to launch that ball ... 40 yards. (Box score calls it a 37 yard TD.) That just doesn't seem right. Thought the exact same thing when I saw the play. He let it go from the 45 and it went about 5 yards into the end zone, so roughly a 50 yard throw. Maybe he put a little extra loft in it, but it looked like a lot of effort for a throw that shouldn't have been that hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minus the two garbage end of half drives by NDSU, their offense produced 45 yards rushing on 18 carries and Noland was 9 of 19 for 87 yards and a pick. That's how bad the rest of the game was for the Bison offense. SIU controlled the ball for more than 41 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more so their DL isn't the force it used to be. Although, they are probably still pretty tough...... I do remember the Weerts kid was a highly touted recruit and Hankey is a walk on from small town ND, which I don't think Entz gives two craps about playing North Dakota kids anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you bench your captain, leading tackler, and pre-season All Conference/All American? Pull him aside and allow him to keep leading the way he has been. Don't make an example of that kid.

I've been pretty critical of Entz, so I do need to cool it and back off. As much as I support UND, I will quickly say NDSU's dominant past had some phenomenal coaching.

UND Fan Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I am sure that many have seen the picture of four guys from Moorhead at the SDSU game. One was Feeney, who were the others? I hope Altepeter and Teiken!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing against Gee, but I'm not sure if I would even put him over Mitchell. Its tough to know what Mitchell will bring to the table since we haven't seen much of him yet. I would like to see him get a few more carries. There were a few spots in the last game where I think if he had gotten the ball there was more than enough room for him to use his speed. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
