UND Football Fan Posted October 22, 2023 Posted October 22, 2023 Last year. We fought out butts off and made a game of it at Weber despite being outmatched. We beat a playoff caliber Youngstown last year on the road. I was expecting a win (though UNI would be fighting for their playoff lives) or at least a team coming out after a crappy half to make a game out of it. Instead we played flatter than we did at SIU last year. Long story short is I’m not totally upset with the loss, but as a fan how we lost and appear to show no fight is the most disappointing. Quote

I think we all knew the game would be tough, but as I said before the game, didn’t matter if it was a 1 point game or a 40 point game, it just needed to be a win. Didn’t happen. Not even close. The concept of a “good loss” is really only acceptable if you’re conditioned to losing. The culture of UND football supports this right now, despite the win last weekend. It’s a body of work over the past 15 years. 1 Quote

I never said or implied “good loss” , my point of not being upset is if this team played/coached their butts off and lost. Disappointed yes, but not upset because of the effort and team was in position to win. This game I felt was over after the fumble, there seemed no energy from players and coaches. If we are a playoff team that should not happen. Quote

The season is a success for UND’s players and most of their fans. They finally beat the mighty Bison. You do run the risk of a satisfied feeling that needs to be put to bed after a day. Don’t know if that was the case or not, as everyone said they turned the page. Then you have to ask the question is this UND team good or not. The problem as I see it, is that every time the team get’s to the point they have the University’s, town’s and some national attention they fail to take the next step and sustain it. The fact that NDSU has been able to sustain success over that long and not get overly complacent is amazing. When UND consistently fails to capitalize on the attention they have garnered from a big win, I think it makes it that much harder for the fan base and possibly even potential recruits to buy in. At some point you have to take the next step or figure out what needs to be done to do that. 6 Quote
Hockeygirl97 Posted October 22, 2023 Posted October 22, 2023 Until we win a significant road game... I'm not believing we've gone over the Top w/ Bubba and become a serious team....I bought the SDSU national championship t-shirts after their win cuz it was the best day in a long time for a suffering Sioux fan...until Bubba shows he's serious, the Rabbits flag stays hung up in the office...I'm pissed as hell and not taking it anymore...prove me wrong and I'll be happy....

Coaches are responsible to have the team ready to go, with a game plan. UND was no where near prepared for this game. It was never competitive. Tonight Washington is losing to Arizona State at home after a big win (and fans storming the field). Now how coaches have get the players to respond and make adjustments to win. Being flat after a win happens but over several years we almost never recover to win after a poor start and that’s tough to stomach as a fan. Quote
Popular Post SiouxHawkGuy Posted October 22, 2023 Popular Post Posted October 22, 2023 UNI looked like a high school team and we got shut out. Bubba should retire with the NDSU win at the end of the season. 3 2 Quote
