HAWKS @ PENGUINS

[Midwestern Hawk]

Hopefully the staff and team have done a better job getting over last Saturday than we have.  Huge game this week in Youngstown.  New staff coming off their first win.  We HAVE to be able to control the ball and get first downs.

I am very curious to see how this team responds. Every good team goes through some adversity so it's time to find out if this team has some balls. 

[Wilbur]

Have we game planned at all for them running the ball directly at us? 

Contenders or pretenders?  We will find a lot out based on Saturday's performance.  On a side note I'll miss being able to hear Bo Pelini scream from the sideline.

This better not be true.  My UND fan hood has been in a state of everything sucks since last Saturday.

COVID is such a bunch of baloney.  I understand the threat to really old or really sick, but 20 year olds?

[GoHawks]

Uffda. The more of these Covid issues showing up the more I'm worried about this season getting cancelled all together.

Are they still promoting at UND the allure of winning a Deeks pizza and 10 days of quarantine to anyone who is asymptomatic but tests positive?

[UNDColorado]

This could be a blessing because we are thin at NG so a week off can't hurt right now.

Well I guess I will occupy myself with keeping abreast of which of our basketball player’s will announce they are transferring.

ugh

I absolutely can not comment professionally.... death rate of less than 1% in college age students....overall 2%.
think PPP... politicians pleasing people!

At least the Dakotas have it together... MN has a bill introduced in the House to let MN counties vote on joining SD. I mean, MN had a LOTTERY. to get vaccines.

I guess we take the week to heal up and train, darn!

Would love to read about who the folks under 50 who were died in MN.  Likely would have died anyways. https://www.health.state.mn.us/diseases/coronavirus/situation.html#ageg1

 

Under 50 in MN the death rate is .04 %.  

151 people under 50 died WITH covid in MN

234 people under 50 died FROM car accidents in MN in 2020.

Agreed. It doesn't matter your thoughts on covid, the rules were set before the season, not gonna change in the middle of the season.

 

At least this will give us some time to lick our wounds and heal up before playing.  I doubt there's any confidence issues with the team, but playing at home after a loss is always a nice way to help get back on track.  Let's heal up, shift focus to MO St, and get ready to make the Alerus Center nice and loud on April 3rd.

If we couldn’t travel today, is there any chance we play next week?
