tnt Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I’m excited for the start but understand we have played well at home recently, but not as well on the road. Hoping the momentum has their confidence high enough to know they can do it on the road as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each week presents a new challenge to prove ourselves. This week will be against a team that also has a good win under their belt. ( plus a short week). The week after is our first road game. Long way to go. Like they say about a golf tournament, you can’t win it on the first day, but you can lose it. Glad to be 2-0 rather than any other result. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMSioux Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Trying to convince my family it is safe for me to attend a UND football game but every camera shot shows zero masks in use. Is it different on site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People may have masks off in their seats but in the aisles, concourses, in line for food and drink, etc. everybody is masked up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most are masked up in their seat as well, and I will say I'm pretty pleased with how socially distanced everything and everyone is. At the expense of attendance, yes, but if we're talking about just spectator safety and nothing else with else, they do set it up well.

Popular Post bincitysioux Posted February 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 28, 2021 For two straight weeks, the pass defense has been horrid in the first half. For two straight weeks, halftime adjustments have been made and the D has been phenomenal in basically every aspect in the second half. That is an awesome trend. Holinka has wildly exceeded my expectations thus far as defensive play caller, at least as far as adjusting to what is going on as the game progresses. I've been a huge fan of Danny Freund since he stepped on campus as QB well over a decade ago as a player. But I wish he would have went to Otis earlier in the game. I still say Otis should get 20+ touches per game. I love Tommy Schuster's game. He doesn't have the physical attributes that some would like. But he seems really smart, makes good decisions, and has a great temper on the field. Basically, he's played 2.75 games against playoff type teams and won them all. He seems like a gamer. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good points . The coaching adjustments throughout the first half and at halftime have been phenomenal, both games. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it different on site? Hall areas, yes on the masks - in seats, I'd say 50-50 during game with people eating and drinking. Seats area spaced and "non-sold" seats are taped off. You are socially distanced by your reserved seating arrangement. Today we were high-fiving each other from across the distanced seats when the game got really exciting. We loved it, but that environment may not be the best for you if you have concerns. As other said, wear your own mask and keep your distance from others if you think it is unsafe. Or watch on tv. You do you. Watch football. Be happy. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really hope the pollsters don't get the North Dakota teams confused this week.... while we have some impressive wins so far this year we have not proven we are a top 5 team in the country. We can beat anyone but we have a lot to improve on in our game. Take away our turnovers and the first two games could have gone differently. The only way the Fargo dynasty dies is when WE take them down! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was critical of Schmidt's lack of adjustments and seeming stubborness. That said, if the D doesn't allow an opening drive TD next week, I'll be concerned. Isn't that the formula for success this year? Love what Danny is doing. The 3rd and short in the 3rd Q with Quincy in the game made SDSU focus on him and it turned into Skonkna's longest run of the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxbow6 Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Kostich is being more of a coach than a cheerleader the first couple of games. Different from past years. Refreshing to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to be used more in those short yardages as im not in favor of an only pass option play on those downs. The more he is used the more confidence he gets and the more accurate his pass options will be. I love every decision to go for it on 4th down. All or nothing mentality! Just pains me to wonder what would have happened if Bubba would have been more cut throat in our other close games. I HOPE BUBBA REMEMBERS THIS DAY!

shep Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Any injuries to be award of? I may have missed it, but is Boltmann Ok? Can't recall seeing him out there. Elijah Beach? Today's program had Zavalney as the starter at TE. Did he play? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
