I’ve been in plenty of pregame speeches and almost none of them were Herb Brooks or Vince Lombardi style fire and brimstone. If you play division I football and need to be motivated by a pregame speech then you’re doing it wrong. The magic is in the weekly preparation.

No one is arguing this point.

But they have had essentially 2 bye weeks in this process.  1 actual game and 2 glorified scrimmages. 

“…glorified scrimmage…

Last time I saw USD, they were taking UND out behind the woodshed.

Really? Because the post I responded to asked if a coach would be criticized for not delivering an impassioned pregame speech. So kinda feels like the point was being argued.

In what world do you live in where 14-10 is being taken behind the woodshed?

It wasn't a good showing for our offense (I was there), but you really think it was a woodshed event? 

I agree with you here. We played terrible on offense and still led most of the game. That’s not getting taken out behind the woodshed.

This is North Dakota Football in a nutshell.  I'm afraid we will never have enough talent to overcome the coaching deficiencies of Bubba and Co.  A baseline for the program is above .500 in FCS.  A very average staff can do this.  I'm afraid that is what we have.  The proof is the last decade of results.

We’re again reduced to cheering against the Bison in order to salvage our own season.  And yet, the loudest voices will scream that NDSU is a failure for losing the semifinal or national title game and proclaim UND as the true “state champion.”  Regardless of what happens next in the playoffs, it’s now impossible to argue that UND will have had a more successful season than NDSU.

Already addressed this - I was thinking of the UNI game.

I can't see NDSU not having the upper hand in this rivalry with the present coaching staffs in place.  Not what I want to say with my heart, but my head and logic says that is the truth at this point.
