Went from anemic play by this team, to seniors and older players making plays on offense and wanting to win. 
 

The players could have folded and they did not. Defense we could not get pressure and that made the 4th quarter sucky. And Defense looked like not to lose mentality instead of you we messed up but we are going to kick your rear next time. 3rd down sack in OT was huge.

Fade in overtime official missed their defender grabbing Bo’s hand (that’s what it looked like) making it a one handed effort catch. Watching Tommy in the 4th reminded me of his play against YSU last year. 

Hopefully our RB situation improves. Don’t know much about next opponent but our interior line need to get better push against 300lb tackles. As others say we may need to take more chances on intermediate or deeper routes to open up the run and bubble/tunnel screen game.

Lastly great seeing a clutch FG, these players showed the effort, now bring that energy and feed off each other and win next week.

Nothing says springboard like beating a 4 TD dog at home in OT

It’s over…

Nobody gets fired on the spot (wouldn’t have happened anyway)…and it goes in the books as a win (I guess)…

That’s all I’ll take from this…

And yes, I watched the game!  No taking my fan card away from me…hahaha!!!

Couple high school playoff games were much more entertaining…

Season isn't over, but doesn't give you much confidence for the remainder of it.

I have confidence in this team until we lose again. We really can’t play any worse. Our RB room is fairly dinged up, need some dudes to show up.

Everyone also forgets how freshmen QB’s are UNDs kryptonite , we survived today, need to beat Murray.

I listened to most of the game on the car radio.  Let's just say this wasn't a good game to hear while driving.   It just wasn't.   Talk about being pissed a few times.

To be honest the last two games are my fault. Been tied up with family activities and didn’t watch either game until the last 4 minutes of this one. I can be canned and fan card taken away…..

it was funny my dad texted me after the winning TD in overtime how pissed he was that we lost to a 0-7 team after whooping the Bison. I told home he missed the last 45 seconds. He didn’t believe me that UND came back to win!

Games like the last two are how apathy starts to set in to the fan base.  This on the heels where there was euphoria after the NDSU win.  Pardon the pun, but after that win, they needed to grab the bull by the horns. Where has that in your face mindset that was quite evident in the NDSU game been?

I wouldn't be surprised if they lose out. I really hope I am wrong.

I got chastised for saying this a year ago…my beliefs haven’t changed (and neither has the product on the field), but I’m guessing Ira and the good ole boys will get after me for saying that…

This program is better than what it’s shown the last two weeks.  It’s squandered a metric ton of goodwill from Oct. 14th…I’m not saying anything more…I’m just really disappointed in our response to a program defining win…

It’s hard to even think playoffs when we play like this.  Thank god we won I guess or it would have gotten really ugly…and the kids don’t deserve that.

No, the kids don't deserve that. The people that recruited them on the other hand.....

I don’t want bandwagon fans anyways, they eventually jump off the bus. 6-5 and 7-4 seasons and missing the playoffs is what I want to avoid. UND will have fans if it keeps winning, simple as that.

(Walks self back from the edge)

They won.  Whether by 30 or 3....

An ugly win is better than a devastating loss.

That may have been the lowest point of the season when they fell behind late....but got up from the season ending loss and found a way.
