Bo has almost 50% of all the receiving yards.  I'd be shocked if NDSU doesn't put a safety over the top to try to take him away.

Two on Bo.
Seven or eight in the box.
Sounds like a chance for Dennis to finally show off his speed, instead of taking crushing blows across the middle.

How many punts will each team have?

Speaking of Luepke, a Bison fan told me to expect a big dose of Cole Payton tomorrow.  He said the talk in Bison world is that he is their best runner, and they believe they have purposely held back on his touches until the meat of the conference schedule, keeping their backup QB healthy.  I think if we limit big plays in their run game from Miller and Payton, we'll be fine.

Cole Payton?  He's got two first names...just like Ricky Bobby.

He's ready, willing and able.

I fear the Mattress Man in this game...

So far hasn’t done so well against us in his career. Rucker and Navratil need to have a day though cause it seems like he'll repping Sealy soon at this rate.

It is this simple: If Dale Lennon talked to the team this week we will win.

Yes, but not the Dale Lennon that talked to SIU before NDSU game in 2008, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015.

I want to beat the Bison, obviously, but I really want to beat Snake Landry.

We are light years ahead of the bison on OC.

Exactly. My thoughts earlier in the week were another WR needs to make big plays this week. NDSU is well coached, we run the ball and we throw to Bo, that is what they will focus on. Not that Bo won't get 4-5 receptions yet anyway though. Bo will still be Bo.

Bo needs 10+ targets no matter what the defense sends at him.

Depends on the defense.  Issac has this.  We don't what bison will throw at us.  Issac will adjust to win.  When the players excecute we win.

Fruechte has been very good adjusting to.... and taking advantage of what the defense is giving us. Hopefully he will be on from the start and it won't take a quarter or so to adjust.

Is there an UND tailgate spot at the FargoDome?

[Oxbow6]

Late $$ coming in on UND...now +12.5.

Opened at +13.5 then up to +14.5.

From a true betting odds standpoint +14.5 was a no brainer if you had any faith in this team.

[Oxbow6]

I've seen this team play all 5 games. They seem to operate differently than the past couple years in all 3 phases...in a good way. Still the eyeball test through 5 games sees some real deficiencies in certain areas. At home I think this is very winnable. On the road in that environment I'm going 34-21 NDSU.  I hope I'm wrong.

Well with newness on the staffs lots of possibilities. Trust me I want us to win but not sure how much I am sold on our defense. Meaning we have still given up big plays. The good is we have created turnovers. 
 

UND fan me thinks 34-31 UND last second field goal. Especially if we play a clean game coaching staff to players and no turnovers.

Devils Advocate me 35-16 NDSu we kick 3 FG instead of punching it in and one drive killing turnover.

Hopeful me is we have a player rise up and make that one play that get us that statement road win!
