AJS Posted July 22 Posted July 22 Preseason ratings and who those teams don't play. 3. USD (Missouri State / ISU-R) 4. SIU (UND / UNI) 5. UND (SIU / Missouri State) 6. ISU-R (SDSU / USD) 7. YSU (NDSU / Murray State) 8. UNI (SIU / Murray State) With this unbalanced schedule, who you play matters. Based on preseason rankings, ISU-R has by far the best "misses" with the #1 / #3 rated teams. Quote

UND-FB-FAN Posted July 23 Posted July 23 UND projected to regress, from third place in the conference to fifth. A lot of proving to do for incumbent Bubba, but the seat never seems to warm for football coaches in Grand Forks and UND, or so it appears. UND football coaching compensation remains behind peer institutions, and you ultimately put your money where your mouth is. Would be surprised if the team is very good or very bad, as we’ve been conditioned to expect ongoing UND football mediocrity (6 to 7 wins and early playoff exit) at this point. X’s and O’s may change with new offensive coordinator. Players may improve in short term with new strength and conditioning coach and in long term with new facilities. Only time will tell I guess … Quote

But continue to find a way to put a negative spin on everything. 2 3 Quote
sioux24/7 Posted July 23 Posted July 23 Has anyone heard if Zavalney is making a return? I believe Kostich hinted at it in an interview before. Also, anyone have any insight on new jerseys? Quote

Not sure why one would go to bat over third place in the conference, seems petty and of low expectations, but you do you. There are some reasons to be excited, and still plenty of reasons to also be concerned. I’ll continue with the moderate approach despite your sentiments. 1 Quote

Didn't state that 3rd or 5th or anything was good, bad or indifferent. Specifically pointed out the fact that there were 6 teams in the top 3 spots in the standings last year so being picked 5th (which again, means nothing) would have had them landing exactly where they did last year and it isn't a catastrophic fall off a cliff like some others tried sell a pointless prediction as. 3 1 Quote
