I went and checked their forum just to see what they posted (been doing that with Nebraska and Idaho as well), and before the season started, they were cautiosly optimistic (due to last year's performance against Cal Poly, mainly). After the Nebraska game, yeah, it got kind of depressing over there.

There is really only about a dozen UNC football fans, parents mostly.

I would imagine that losing to CSU-Pueblo at home has deflated UNC fans' expectations. I don't expect too many UNC fans at the game. They certainly aren't in the mood to travel to our message board.

This is true. I had everything planned out. Was going to go with a bunch of alumni, tailgate, etc. However after losing to a RMAC team I decided to save my money and watch it online (is this going to be streamed?). I'm not a fair-weather fan but after 9 losing seasons and losing to the likes of Lindenwood and CSU-P, it takes the wind out of the sail. I'll always be a UNC Bear but I won't spend $80 to lose to a solid MW team.

You may want to rethink that. This is the only game this season for us that isn't televised, online or otherwise.

imo, it's good that not every game is on TV, kinda draws people in regionally and puts a few more butts in seats to "hopefully" see a good win, as I see total focus and a blowout in the Pokes favor, big time.

Nope. Just check the MW, and there is no stream this weekend.

Maybe I am being naive, but are we sure UNC isn't going to surprise us in any way? These games scare me.

On paper, it should end up being a similar game to Idaho. But on paper, K-state, reigning Big 12 champ, was supposed to dominate NDSU. And we all know how that turned out.

Although I have more confidence in our team this year, I refuse to say any game is a slam dunk. Even against Natrona High.
