The Montana Grizzlies came into the Alerus Center on Saturday with a clear goal in mind: to not let what happened last season happen again this year. It was pretty evident they achieved their goal. The Griz routed UND 55-17 in the most lopsided game in Alerus Center history. They looked like a completely different…
Many of you may have heard or know about the situation with St. Cloud native and sophomore UND offensive tackle Ross Windfeldt, who had to leave practice and fall camp because he became ill. The extent and specificity of the illness are unknown to us because of the privacy and the nature of things like…
The UND football team has a whole ‘nother animal coming to town this weekend. Last week UND pounded an inferior Valparaiso team 69-10 and left fans wondering how good UND really is. Well, they will find out soon enough. Old NCC rival South Dakota State is 1-0 on the season after also pounding a Pioneer…

The annual UND Football FanFest is set for tonight at 5:30pm at Memorial Stadium. There will be free pizza and drinks for the first 500 people. Most importantly, however, fans will be able to pick themselves up an ever-popular UND Yard Sign. The event is sponsored by Midco Sports Network. Word out of camp is that…
Overall, it appears the defense is playing pretty well. We are tempering our enthusiasm based on last year’s results but they seem to be playing at a quicker tempo, etc. It is also apparent they are starting to build the depth needed to compete at the FCS level but it will be an ongoing process….
We’ve seen a bigger emphasis on an improved running game over the last couple practices. It appears that UND is trying to really work on getting it on track. They have been running out of a number of different schemes/formations. We said previously that it was at the top of the list for us as…
The UND Football team has officially completed 10 of their scheduled 29 practices before the home opener with Valpo. Now would be a good time to relay what we have seen and heard so far. There was a “live” short yardage session on Saturday that showed some things that need to be improved on, but…
