kelly h getting a little salty with our "special teams".....

where ya been the last 10 years kelly?

We have got to be top five in FCS football in missed XPs the last however many years.  I mean it's at the point where you expect to miss one at least once a week.

And when was the last time the Bizen or Jacks missed one?  Hell, how about time between two misses?  We are three games in with two already....

There has been a precipitous decline in kicking performance since 2014. 50 yarders are basically out of the question now.

I would roll on the floor in laughter/disgust if we even lined up for a 50 yard FG. I think I said last week or the week before, we probably only have made like 1 from more than 43 yards in 5 years. I mean it feels like we've made zero from beyond that but I am sure I am missing at least one. 

 

Not sure how the kicker made every extra point last year. For a brief moment you could go grab another beer for the extra point, now it's back to sitting on edge of your chair hoping and praying it goes in. 

 

We need an NIL just to get a kicker.

Statistics suggest Bubba is not cut out for big games:

Last game that Bubba won in front of a crowd of 13,000+ was 2016 @ Montana State. Quite frankly, if it’s a big game with a big crowd, he hasn’t produced. Lights get too bright. Stage is too big. 
 

Interestingly, UND will have another big game, next up, with a crowd over 13,000+ at South Dakota State. Will the squad be ready to perform and will the coaches be ready to lead? We will see, but history suggests not.

Well we didn’t miss one last year, I do agree we should not be regressing from the players we had in D2

24 hours - the team has moved on we should too. Barring an epic upset we will be 2-2 many on here can save time and just cut and paste their current postings. I enjoy the game, I support UND, I am looking forward to a fun season and making numerous road trips, because it's a game played by student athletes that chose to attend UND.

Can’t afford to lose him. Recruiting big time players and coaching them up for the NFL level. Best coaching hire of Bubba’s tenure.

don’t believe me look at all the talent on the roster

It would be nice to see a head coach here you know be successful and move onto bigger and better

Or retire, Danny can be given the reins first before we can this coaching staff and build from the ground up. Not the time to hire a completely different staff, I could only imagine what we would have left after the transfers

We pissed down our leg.

Thought this year might be different, but looking back it, nothing has changed at the top in terms of leadership to suggest it would. 
 

UND hasn’t won’t a game in front of 13,000 + fans (approximate capacity of Alerus Center) since 2016 … I repeat, 2016.

Another game with major hype, 13,000+ fans in attendance coming up on 9/30 @ SDSU… history suggests one outcome, I hope for a different one.

Two plays Saturday could've changed sideline demeanor (and attitude matters):

- make the first EP (7-7 is better than 7-6) 
- make the INT and easy TD (would've "tied" game at 14)

hang onto the ball for the 1st interception oportunity and we keep them off the board on the first touchdown.

Hang on to the easy pick 6 and we lead either 12,13, or 14 to 7.
