siouxweet Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Boise was nothing more than a glorified FCS program. Nothing that was jaw dropping about them. Difference was UND self destructed. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missed opportunities for picks by UND; gotta make big plays in big games to take the next step. UND didn’t execute (again) and another golden opportunity missed by this program / coaching staff on national TV.

Did you really expect UND to beat a decent FCS team today? I didn’t. $650K check collected, mission accomplished. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Sioux94 Posted September 16, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 16, 2023 Here is the thing for me. I'm f'ing pissed off about today so don't say crap about low expectations. I'm pissed. But our defense I think played pretty well. F SDSU and NDSU, I want to beat them both! And for the love of God can we make an extra point wtf! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that could be the situation, but that would mean things need to change. To elevate past NDSU/SDSU, you can’t be a “decent FCS team, you’ve got to be top tier.

The next three or four games will tell us a lot. Maybe today was an aberration but based on history probably not. I think they’ll go 2-2 at best. I hope I’m wrong.

It basically is a microcosm of the same ol’ same ol’. Means UND with their current setup continues to falter in big games. Hope I’m wrong. Hope UND beats SDSU. I’ll be there supporting in-person, per usual. At some point, got to just get it done. If it ain’t working, though, can’t keep trying the same thing over and over; gotta try something different.

Ask NDSU (and even SDSU of late) if those odds hold up… I’ll wait. You're supporting mediocrity, and there’s no reasonable way to spin it. It’s not just you, though; it’s a culture issue. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sioux>Bison Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 1 hour ago, UND-FB-FAN said: You do realize that setting expectations like you are will never allow UND to take the next step, right? What did NDSU and SDSU do the last time they played Mountain West opponents? You do realize that NDSU and SDSU are in UND’s conference; they are the benchmark. Also, you can’t just turn on and off your team like a light-switch. Doesn’t work that way. The way you play against FBS correlates to how you play vs the top of the FCS. You think we would have lost to CSU or Nevada today? Not even close, big difference between Boise and the bottom feeders that should be in the big sky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkster Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Right now I'd say UND goes 8-3 with loses to NDSU and SDSU. We make the playoffs and either win one or none. Things just keep repeating. Boise tried hard to lose and still won it. Tons of mistakes by Boise and look how it ended. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a good example of when we didn't, a long with fumbling the ball away before half when going in for the tying score. I hate NDSU, but they always made those plays in those games when it mattered. They uncannily made those key plays every time when it mattered for like 10 straight years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
