Just the way it was presented at the luncheon today from Armacost it made it seem like he was there for the weekend but I’m happy to be wrong. He just stated they were headed down today. Didn't insinuate one way or the other. He's BC is doing exactly what he should. Both he and EM were at the volleyball game last night as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sioux24/7 Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Anyway…. Pretty quiet around here tonight. Who’s going to step up tomorrow on defense? Someone’s gotta. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nodak78 Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 I think our DB's are due for a couple Interceptions. On special teams. CJ big Offense Tommy and Zalavney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total: 1863 Non-End Zone: 882 End Zone: 981 Walk ups always play a big role. But UND marketing and Alerus Gameday Ops aren’t doing much on their part to enhance that number … winning and big games can only do so much, but both of those areas are checked for tomorrow … let’s see what it brings. My guess is a good crowd (10,000) but not a sell out which is what good marketing and gameday ops can bring you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was all over the board and he abruptly ended his talk and walked off. That was the 2015 game at the Alerus. UND could have easily beaten them much worse than they did that day.

SWSiouxMN Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Back to reality: I don't feel that this will be a blowout in either direction.

Plenty of eyes will be on the game tomorrow, being it has the #1 team in it. Time to take the next step, or else be considered the status quo.

Popular Post Dustin Posted October 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 22, 2022 Here’s what’s going to keep the game close: 1. Alerus Center. We are just very hard to play against at home. 2. Diversified offense. We have multiple weapons both on the ground and through the air, a good play caller, plus a very smart QB who can scramble for yards or escape pressure until something opens up. 3. Defense that adjusts. We probably will look a little porous in the first quarter or half, but we will have things dialed in after a few series. Here’s what’s going to win the game: 1. Pressure on the QB, hopefully to force a turnover, like an interception or strip sack, or at least put them in 3rd/4th & Long. 2. A Special Teams play. Something like a fake punt, a big return, or blocked punt. 3. Crowd noise to cause penalties that put them in unfavorable down & distance. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda wish we would have saved that Quincy pitch play with Maag coming across for a game like this. Hopefully Danny has the perfect call in this game when we need it. Just finally listened to the 360 podcast and Shannon mentioned Maag throwing a TD to Wilson. What if on that same situation and similar formation as that pitch play, Quincy actually hands it to Maag, Red or Smith are in the backfield and they leak out to the left....Maag takes the handoff running right, turns back and throws it to Red or Smith back out in the left flat. It's always interesting watching Danny's offense...I'm sure there will be at least one new play or wrinkle tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mama Sue Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Well I can help with #3 and pray about #1 & 2! I totally recant my statements about customer service. Last night at 7:30 pm I got a call from ?Joe at the football office. He had very much referred my request to someone who did not follow through. He will make sure I have a ticket tomorrow. Joe is fielding requests for student athletes to see the game. He has been swamped (“I was afraid your call was another request for 10 tickets for possible recruits”). I hope the recruits are seeing GREEN and no there color. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
