61hawk Posted October 11, 2023 Posted October 11, 2023 Is UND really now supposed to be called "The UND"? That's almost as retarded as when the University of South Carolina went from USC to UofSC and the last I heard has returned to USC. 1 Quote

The big factor in the heartburn is the pathetic execution - even after we knew they smelled it out we fumbled around a bit then ran it. 2 Quote

Every single big game there are the comments that we are going to need to use trick plays to beat the opposition. It gets pretty annoying knowing that our only chance to beat a good team is to hope our trick plays work. And there's nothing wrong with trick plays. Just wish we could once believe that we can beat a good team straight up because we are better than them and not have to rely on trick plays to win. I'd be willing to bet NDSU and SDSU never go into games thinking that they are going to have to use trick plays to win. I agree with you. But actually didn't Boise use a half back pass against us? SDSU also used a trick play against us one of the last 2-3 times we played them. Totally get your point though and agree. Against these really stout defenses, we have to use the right trick play of we are going to do it.... otherwise they sniff it out. Also trick plays are harder for UND than almost anyone else because everyone is aware we run them all the time so they are always looking for it. 1 Quote

Crowd will be rocking early, we must take advantage. I not as confident as I was a few weeks ago, but we are tough at home. Let's go Hawks.... 24-20 good guys. 1 1 Quote

From the little I know about NDSU football I've heard that all they do is QB run, so you only need "one" Stop the run. Quote

The #1 team in ND ranking is up for grabs (again) and that needs to be the main priority come Saturday. Get that ranking and bring it back to UND for the first time over 15 years … Lose to us in 2019 and they still win the title. Without their title runs every year is a big hit to their notoriety. Blood in the water for UND…. 1 Quote

UND hasn’t been able to pitch to recruits that they’re the best football program in the state for over 15 years. That has hurt. Many ND and MN recruits have bypassed UND for ag school football during that span, and then gone on to win championships for the ag school. If UND can start to win head-to-head matchups against the ag school, that will change, and, as history has shown time and time again, the tide will turn for UND football. UND will ascend into a title contender. 2 Quote

Should’ve figured out a white helmet that could go with all uniform sets. Big missed opportunity and waste imo 1 1 Quote
Siouxperfan7 Posted October 12, 2023 Posted October 12, 2023 Really disappointed they aren't pairing them with the Grey pants. I would have taken them with the current sub par green jerseys. Quote
