Some North Dakota snowbirds in the Phoenix area are heading in different directions to a FB game on Saturday.
UND vs NAU Lumberjacks (Big Sky) in Flagstaff at 1:00
NDSU vs Arizona Wildcats (Pac-12) in Tucson at 8:00

Last season, the Wildcats, which closed as a 27-point favorite against NAU, lost 21-19 to their FCS in-state foe on Saturday night (9-18-21) at Arizona Stadium.

Can snowbirds be snowbirds this early?

I was thinking someone might question snowbirds, and did just about change it. Then taught this was such a minor part of this post that I left it.

The real message in the post is both UND and NDSU are playing in Arizona on Saturday.

Alright 2-2.  Could easily be 0-4.  Glass half full....

Missouri State.  They got beat up by the Jacks....we win.

@Youngstown....ohhh boy I'll say we squeeze one out.....win

Jacks.....loss

Abilene......win

@Indiana State.....Must win

South Dakota....win

@Bizen......loss

Win at home and maybe surprise the Jacks like we did a few years ago?  

Seems like 7-4 is a possibility, but we will have to improve light years on defense to make anything better a reality.

Mo. St. or USD will beat UND at the Alerus.

This team will struggle to win 5 games.  I thought the defense would be jelling and getting better by now . It’s not.  The offense struggled most of the game for a myriad of reasons. 
 

Looking more and more like our 2 wins were against bad teams.  Need to come out firing vs Mo State and get a win or the game in Youngstown will get that much tougher.

Funny thing is next year about this time we will be saying the same things

with the portal some players will believe they need to transfer and we lose a couple good players 

bubba or whoever needs to use the portal and get the ship righted

Unless the young linemen grow up fast we will struggle for playoffs. I was hopeful after Nebraska, know I’m unsure. My guess the quicker passes we saw earlier this year was due to that inexperience.

Defense I thought we improved on run fits, still could improve. Secondary needs to play quicker or we need mor me help over top. The long 3rd down reception today, to me exposed how slow are secondary is. The X/Y quicks gashed us also. Mo State may try to emulate that stuff next week. 

Hopefully we can build around our strengths, force some turnovers and get the crowd fired up next week.

It’s all been just D1 records he’s been setting right? Not saying it’s not impressive. 

When you get a moment check out his placement in all time stats (not just DI), and then extrapolate from there. Fun to imagine what’s to come.
