UND @ Murray State

[jdub27]

Dabo Swinney had some pretty interesting comments the other day as he compared expectations and appreciation.
Now UND is not Clemson by any stretch of the imagination, but his basic point is that some people are able to balance both having expectations while still having appreciation for successes when they do happen (obviously there are multiple levels of those successes). Others are so focused on their own internal expectations (over something they have no control over) that they don't bother to have appreciation for any sort of success or minimize it because it "isn't enough". 

It wasn't a deflection either, as Dabo also took full responsibility for Clemson having a down year, at a place that has basically unlimited resources.
"Listen, man, you can have your opinion all you want, and you can apply for the job. And good luck to you."

In the end, we all want the same success for the program. Everyone just has their own outlook on what that looks like and what's worth celebrating.

No offense but I stopped reading after the bolded part cause I knew the lane you were going down.

Who in the MVFC has beaten Indiana State 50-0?  Who has beat Murray State 50-0?

Of course you would just stick with the 50-0 score??? You and I both knew what the point is. UND should beat both those teams by a wide margin.

USD beat MSU 38-7 and Illinois St beat ISU 44-7. No reason UND can't do that or better!

Why couldn't UNI and USD beat the Sycamores so handily the two weeks before us?

Excellence? Hahaha......that's rich considering the analogy provided a few posts ago at the top of this page. The chasm couldn't be wider. You seem reasonable but I'd suggest taking the Tony Robbins seminar off a continuous loop for the rest of the day.

USD beat ISU 17-3 (tied 3-3 at halftime). And UNI was down 17-14 to ISU in the 3rd quarter before winning 27-20.
We'll see what happens when Illinois St plays Murray next weekend to complete the other half of the equation you skipped over.

Who know what is going to happen, it is almost like that's why they play the games.

Correct. Score-comparing is a way to say you don’t know ball without saying you don’t know ball.

[sioux24/7]

Think Red will play? Kelly made it sound like he may not have played last week because of something outside of injury. Was careful to make it sound like he didn’t know, but he knows.

Now would be a good time to sign up for Midco Sport Plus. The UND/MS game is on. You could watch SDSU boat race NDSU and the UND MBB and WBB season is just starting. We need to support them more than ESPN+ .

I think the GFCHS FB team would give you an up vote........

Let’s go hawks!! Play a clean game throughout. Starts up front!

Weather appears it should not be a factor. Run the whole offense, please!

OL needs to open some holes for Isabel, Luke and like to see Donovan Hunt.

I got Murray and the points. UND wins (hopefully) buy they aren't  good enough on the road to cover 3 scores.

I got the Jacks -10.5 as well. Think they'll purposely run it up if possible.

One can only hope the line stays there until it comes out....
