A solid effort for having 9 in the box and run blitzing every down I suppose, so go ahead and hang your hat there.
The worst part for me was when they were singing the praises of a UND pass that went for one yard. One freaking yard. One fourth of a Zenner.
But then again the media is the one who pushed the narrative of this game having to happen. Then they tried to twist them beating a helpless Wyoming team as proof that they could beat NDSU as well. Then when it was 3-3 they could hardly withhold their excitement. I was really glad when we put it away in the 2nd, just for that.
The media is going to do the apologist routine now. And once the dust settles they will start hammering for another game. I just hope Dom Izzo (who is damn good at his job) learned his lesson from this one. UNI is our real bad-blood rivalry now.

Yes. We need to take a few shots a game.

He still needs more air under the ball on those, hell of a grab by the Polock!
Re: UND post-game thoughts.

I only recall one reception by TE's today and only 2 targets, Bonnett with a catch and a dropped TD is all I recall.

Re: UND post-game thoughts.
Well it was a great tailgate, old timers got to reminisce about days gone by and that was perhaps the most boring second half ever. Now on to the real games in the Valley.
SDSU and UNI right out of the gate, those will be 4th quarter games. Need to clean up special teams but with #11 behind center I have a ton of confidence in where we are going. Defense is also getting back to their aggressive old selves. The Rabbit game will be the true test of just where that group is.
Re: UND post-game thoughts.
the next 2 games are very critical! must go 1-1 worst case senario
Re: UND post-game thoughts.
My post game thoughts are focused on the Worm. Is it still turning? Do we have rotational speed? Did it drown in a bottle of bad tequila?
Re: UND post-game thoughts.
UND had a total of one Zenner rushing and 57 yards passing---fire Entz.
