UND Football was ranked the 20th. That's pretty decent. Let's not pretend we were 41st. Not great but thats where a few keys plays and they're suddenly likely 14th. Quote

Next Saturday is one of those meaningful games. Yep. Time for them to show up on the road 1 Quote
Cratter Posted Sunday at 03:50 AM Posted Sunday at 03:50 AM Bubba sucked on the road...gotta go find that stat. Schmidt (very small sample size) looks way more prepared. Quote
siouxweet Posted Sunday at 03:53 AM Posted Sunday at 03:53 AM UND goes at least 3-1 in next 4 heading into Vermillion. Quote

Cratter Posted Sunday at 04:07 AM Posted Sunday at 04:07 AM 30 minutes ago, CMSioux said: That would have us in the playoffs. Yeah its a favorable schedule in that we play NDSU and SDSU at home.... But on the flip side....we have to play NDSU and SDSU at home.... "Cratter that doesnt make any sense".... Well....you see if you need to go 2-2...one could argue losing to SDSU and NDSU on the road would put UND at an advantage to play the other two "lesser teams" at home...giving UND a greater chance of winning the home games and going 2-2. Now the home games become a little less winnable... But the road games become a little more winnable... Meaning those four games....will come down to the wire...play here play there. Buckle Up Buttercup! Quote

forksandspoons Posted Sunday at 04:27 AM Posted Sunday at 04:27 AM The UNI Dome is a tough place to play. I feel like there’s something off about the turf. Just can’t come out flat. Quote

And in 2023 at UNI we were completely futile, we looked like one of the worse teams in the FCS in that game. Not sure if it's your intent or not to set it up as a comparison, but if we beat UNI 31-7 this year, that is way different than beating them 31-7 at home. Quote

You know who else loves Simon? The head coach. He said so post game. You can keep your disgust for him, but it appears the locker room and the men leading this team feel a lot different about him than you do. 2 4 Quote
