How about the fact that the players were wearing cleats instead of Turf shoes? Maybe that had something to do with it? I’ll ask you since your the expert. The carpet in the UNIDome is the same as in the DakotaDome so some expert here please share their source on "wearing the wrong shoes". We've played in the DakotaDome several times in the past few years. Quote

No idea if that was team wide or a select few. Quote

Out staff was not prepared for this and should have been. That is not acceptable at this level. I am surprised @geaux_sioux wasn’t all over this already. Quote

Looks like almost nobody for Weber wore cleats fwiw, and I know I’ve seen NDSU with turf shoes on in that building instead of cleats. Quote

Ok, but this shoe/cleat conspiracy is about 5% of the issue tops. Cleats caused the early fumble? Cleats caused the missed field goal before half? Cleats caused the UND defense to make a former UNI defensive player look like an all-American running back? Cleats didn’t allow UND to block and run the football? Yeah, not buying it, but sure sounds good for those with gullible ears. Quote

I do think it was a big mistake by us but didn’t account for the clear lack of fire. We laid down and it wasn’t because of the cleats. 4 Quote

I mean, if you were to pick one fcs program from the last 10 years to go FBS you’d be hard pressed to find an overall better candidate than JMU. They’ve got it all. Stadium, location, support, tradition, etc. Sam Houston on the other hand didn’t pass the eye test to me. The only thing they have going for them in being located in Texas. All other aspects seemed fcs at best. 2 2 Quote
