During the bye week UND has still stayed busy. The team practiced Tuesday and Wednesday, presumably preparing for Cal Poly and their triple option offense. As we remember, the Sioux held the Mustangs to 62 total rushing yards last year in the 31-17 victory. Of course that game was at home and this Cal Poly team…
UND lost 31-21 on Saturday to Southern Utah after jumping out to an early 14-0 lead in the 1st quarter on Joel Schwenzfeier’s 100 yd interception return for a TD. Everything pretty much went on a downward spiral from there.  Some of our observations from Saturday: Southern Utah is a very talented team. Their QB…
Got a late start this week, we were tied up with other stuff all week but definitely are excited for this weekends 4pm Homecoming game with Southern Utah. To us this game simply comes down to whether the UND defense can stop #19 Tysson Poots and #9 Fesi Sitake, SUU’s remarkable receiver duo. They have…
After the recent 27-17 loss to USD, the Sioux sit at 2-3 heading into the Homecoming tilt vs. Southern Utah. If there was ever a must-win game it is this one. But, there is more to come on that game later in the week. A few thoughts on the USD game: Defense couldn’t get off…
What used to be the battle for Sitting Bull will take place this Saturday at 2pm down in Vermillion. The Sioux and Coyotes are both sitting at 2-2 on the year. The game will be televised on Midcontinent’s network. USD Offense The Coyotes come into the game averaging 28 pts/game and 360 total yds/game. They are…
The Fighting Sioux played a near complete game on Saturday in rout to their 49-24 victory over Division 1-FCS opponent Northwestern State of Louisiana. Offensively, the team put up 524 yards and came up with a handful of big plays early in the game to give them separation on the scoreboard. While there was a…
The Demons come into this weekend’s tilt at the Alerus Center with a record of 1-2. They lost to Air Force and Samford to the start the year but came back to beat Tarleton State last week, 17-14. Coach Bradley Dale Peveto has assembled a lot of talent, as proven by their #1 recruiting class…
The secret is out on freshman WR Greg Hardin: He’s UND’s stud playmaker from the WR position and is the “go to” guy. It won’t take long for defensive coordinators to figure that out when they watch the tape to prepare for UND each week. It will be interesting to see what type of attention…
While we would have liked to see Bismarck, ND freshman Jake Miller redshirt this season for obvious reasons, we also understand the reasoning behind taking it off last weekend. With Mitch Sutton suffering from what looked to be a pretty bad concussion, all of the sudden depth became a concern and the coaching staff felt…
The first home game of the year will bring the Northeastern State Riverhawks to the Alerus Center. It is also the 45th annual Potato Bowl game. The Riverhawks are a Division II team out of Tahlequah, OK that plays in the Lone Star Conference, the same conference as 2008 opponent Texas A&M-Kingsville. They are 1-1…
