Tough that this will be the last time we see Belquist and Q on the field for UND.  Wish the staff would of figured out more ways to effectively use Q in the offense, but that has kind of been the echo board for a number of years with UND football.

If losing means a regime change then so be it.

Losing 5 in a row to end the season seemed like a Mt. Everest type of challenge. I still very much have my doubts that it can happen. Even for Bubba, this would be quite the accomplishment. Loss by loss! Nap by nap!

This is what happens when an oblivious employee is enabled by an incompetent boss.

I'll never cheer against UND.  This last game will have no impact on Bubba's future win or lose.  That ship has sailed....unfortunately none of us have a clue what the destination is at this point.  I doubt we win but I'll still be cheering them on!!

We will definitely take for granted how automatic 3rd and short and 4th and short has been these last couple of years. 

Q is a dude.. he found a role on the team and crushed it.. short yardage.. 3rd or 4th and less than 2.  I absolutely loved seeing him trot out there and take the other teams soul.  That TD catch last week was a highlight.

It was always great watching the short yardage plays.  Everyone knew what was going to happen and it seemed to always work.  I'm curious if there is a stat out there somewhere on how many short yardage attempts by Q and the success rate.  I'm far to lazy to look up the play-by-play stats for each game.

Excluding the fake punt against the bison, which was a full 2 yards if I remember correctly, I can’t remember many times that it failed.

I don’t think it will matter one way or the other with regards to Bubba’s future. It won’t do the future of the program any good to lose. 

So this game is basically irrelevant in regards to the future of the program? If Bubba is still head coach in 2025, win or lose, then winning on Saturday isn’t going to help the future of the program either. You say losing won’t do the program any good, but most on here are not in agreement with your almighty wisdom.

What a petty athletic department that UND has, no championship expectations or ability; but I guess if that’s the new reality, then better settle in …

What I do wish is the Head Coach says this is his last game as a coach and the team plays hard for the seniors and coach.  The team convincingly wins giving hope for the future and Bubba finishes with that road win over a ranked team. 

How fitting would a road win against a ranked team be for Bubbas last game as coach?

This is gonna end up just like my Twins where the hitting coach (defensive coordinator) and a few other coaches get axed for the good of the cause while Rocco (Bubba) vows change and a better outcome next season.  Then the GM (Chaves) comes out with his full support for the head coach.

I really can't connect the Pohlads to anything, at least they are selling the team....:lol:
