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
Sioux94 Posted October 27, 2023 Posted October 27, 2023 If we would have beat UNI and run the table pretty sure we would have ended up with Top 4 seed. If we do run the table from here out.....where do we end up? 10ish probably? Don't think we'd be able to crack the top 8 but would depend what else happens. Quote

Part of it depends on how the USD/SDSU game goes this Saturday but running the table definitely puts UND back in the conversation for a seed. Sagarin and Massey continue to rate UND favorably and it sounds like some of the non-biased polls are going to carry a little more weight this year. Quote

All other aspects seemed fcs at best. Not to mention JMU had the chance to move FBS like 5 - 10 years ago and they turned the offer down, didn't they? Waited until the time was right. Ended up joining the same conference anyway, but both JMU's program and the conf were in a better place when JMU finally made the move. Quote
Sioux>Bison Posted October 28, 2023 Posted October 28, 2023 UND just needs to keep the winning streak going. No one will care about how tight the wins were if we finish 8-3. Cannot leave any doubt with a 7-4 record. Quote
Wilbur Posted October 28, 2023 Posted October 28, 2023 Okay. 5-3. @ Murray State.....who knows. @ South Dakota.....a loss. Illinois State......ummm....... They could win all three or lose all three. Not sure 7-4 gets them in any more with the last two weeks. Quote

It will be our only good win though if we lose to USD. If we lose to USD in a close one 7-4 probably gets us in, if it's another 27-0 loss on the road.....I dunno. Quote

I think towards the end of the game they showed that UND has somewhere around the 6th toughest strength of schedule so far? Thinking it was the schedule so far This season, but not the full season....didn't catch that for sure. Quote
wheelsup Posted October 29, 2023 Posted October 29, 2023 Can always hope 7-4 gets us in.. 2015 UND and last years Youngstown have some complaints on that front. If the loss to UNI had been a close game I wouldnt have any concerns, but getting smashed like that was not helpful. NAU will end up being a decent win and Boise State is looking good and SDSU is killing everyone. I could see our last game against ISU being for one of the last playoff spots as they will have a good chance of that being for 7-4 for them as well. 2 Quote

The Idaho State loss killed the 2015 team’s resume. They were really bad that year. Quote

Und246 Posted October 29, 2023 Posted October 29, 2023 If we finish 7 and 4 we more than likely will still make playoffs but will go on road. Believe it or not the thrashing of NDSU will carry a lot of weight. But let’s just go 8 and 3 and get a couple home games maybe. At least one home game. Quote

Both they and Patty know it. SUs Larson is under the microscope. She already called him incompetent out loud. Quote

Why so different than NDSU? Is it because we had the lead vs NDSU and were behind yesterday? Why not run the ball for 5 yards instead of always trying to pass for 5 yards? When Ziebarth left the game, he had 4 rushing attempts for 27 yards...and Tommy was 6-9 for 46 yards. Don't understand the play calling at times. We will all feel better in a week. I was wrong. 1 Quote
