Popular Post nodak651 Posted March 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2021 I have the biggest smile after reading todays posts... We have been through some major ups and downs as football fans at UND... Even if just temporary, it's been great to see everything finally come together. After the Muss and Rudy years, with Freund actually living up to the hype and exceeding the unfairly high bar that most of us set for him, and with NDSU's concurrent drama (lol), seeing Weah coming back and succeeding, and with Tommy's success after the uncertainty with the events surrounding his recruitment, this is just a great moment in time. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 To reiterate what someone said, after USD went "hot knife" through the UND defense to start the 4th and make it 21-10, UND needed a long drive to stabilize the game and rest the defense. (Points would've been nice, but given the 11 point spread and time remaining, not required.) This is the drive of the game: UND starts at UND32 with 10:40 left in fourth and drives to USD33, but punts. USD ball at USD20 with 03:59 remaining. An eleven play, 35 yard, six minute forty-one second drive. Masterpiece (save for staying in FG range). No points, but effectively killed the clock. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USD still almost hit a go route on their very first offensive play that would have gone for a lot of yards, if not six. Dropped pass by #80.

Danny Freund is going to give Valley D Coordinators headaches all season long!! Probably would have had a better chance at working if it was a little earlier in the play clock.

At tailgating a few years ago a guy told me he had done the original one but it was long gone. It inspired me to make my own so I enlisted my wife to help me. She thought I was crazy but after a short trip to the craft/fabric store we made it. I had an old picture of the original and tried to match the lettering as best as I could. We hang it behind the visitors bench but sit on the other side so we enlist the students sitting by it to run the thing during games. Last year we had to move it down closer to the band because there were a group of students that hung over the railing and pounded on it while harrassing the visitors. They must have pregamed pretty hard because they were lit up for every game. I fully endorse the work that they were doing but it was a little hard on the sign and the paper numbers. I figure it just added some character to it. We live in the TC and won't be at any games this spring but will be back in full force next fall. Awesome! Are you still going to give it to the students now that they’ve moved? Or will you have to find some STH to do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dropped pass by #80. Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. Skokna almost hit a home run ball had he not, just barely, stepped out of bounds as well. It bodes well that we can beat a talented team like that, while still missing on quite a few opportunities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post coyotecrazie5 Posted March 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2021 Good game by the Hawks and congrats on the win. Fundamentally sound team and that RB is a handful. I'll be rooting for UND the rest of the way, good luck. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had a good QB we would be 5-0 now. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
