Looking forward to a 100+ point loss to NDSU.

Great catch - at least we didn't get shut out.

Best special teams play of the year.

Great catch by Rogers.

I’m ready for Davidson. It’s audition time for any serious QB candidate for next season.

I wonder how much NIL money we paid this year to get zero wins.

So... did out back up QB get a shot?

eh, did our starting QB get the opportunity to make another turn over? Eh... did he jump at the opportunity.

How bad will it be next week in the Fargo Dome? It's not going to be pretty.

This is one of the most difficult teams to watch in my NIU history. I saw some really bad teams back in the 80s.

This team is so young. Not that I am making excuses for them. The coaching staff needs to go and yes; this is going to take some time to re-build. But Coach Novak went through this when he took over the Huskies. No one says it cannot happen again. Although, it is a lot harder now with NIL and the portal.

Those 2 things have destroyed college football (at least for the mid-majors).

I will also say that we had a great run from about 2002 until 2015. Carey ruined that. So, let's finish up this season and look forward to next year. Hopefully, we can find a coach that can turn things around.

Plus I have NDSU fans coming over for Thanksgiving - probably little trash talk after they beat us by 50+ though. We are already beaten dogs shuddering in the corner - just sad at this point

It especially destroyed mid-majors, but really college football in general. I think even for the programs that can pay the millions on a roster, no one wants a crappy version of the NFL, that’s not what made college football what it was.

Even top 20 teams are churning rosters year on year, players certainly have no loyalty to the school, and why would they when many are chasing the biggest paydays they will see in their lives. Ultimately you can only alienate the fans so much though

NDSU will have a running clock at some point. UTEP is our Super Bowl.

Lol. People are still whining and moaning about NIL? Get the frick over it, and stop using it as an excuse for this sorry joke of an organization that we have.

We used to dominate the MAC, and even beat ranked teams on a consistent basis. Now look at us. The fault lies completely at the hands of STF, not big bad boogeyman NIL.

Also, for all the suckers who willingly chose to buy MW+, you got what you deserve.

They should just forfeit the NDSU game.

Anyone know the attendance at today’s game?

I was planning on going to the game next week since I now live closer to Fargo than DeKalb. But no way. I wouldn’t walk across the street to see this dumpster fire. I wasn’t able to watch today. Are they even trying anymore or just going through the motions?

It’s hard to say. It doesn’t really look like a lack of effort. It looks like a combination of players who aren’t D1-caliber and horrendous coaching. They also aren’t well-conditioned either, which speaks to the number of injured. Just a bunch of guys just kind of cluelessly running around.

Yeah man get them suckers spending. $10.99!!!

I mean that’s not breaking the bank. I got kids and stupid crap costs more than $10.99…on a sliding scale $10.99 isn’t sucker money.

If I'm a 3rd stringer at NDSU, I'm buying tickets for my whole family, it's the only game I'll see a lot of action in all year.

We got blown out by a terrible team....we SUCK

We are so far away from a team like New Mexico which I’m watching it’s not even funny
