    Cameron Peterka. Then again, Brendan Hellevang was a machine from close; over 45 he got sketchy.

    And he'll get all-American votes for it too.

    14, 90, and 2 all had vectors on him to the sideline; and, the DB coming from "Hugos" guaranteed no escape. That was a "live to another play" situation. Pitch it away; run another play. And don't take unwarranted hits.

    And people wonder why I prefer analytics to (opinion) polls.

    And risk a clean shot on your starting QB.

    If Tommy can create time and space for himself and not get hit, I'll accept the throw-aways because some of the other connections are well worth it (this week: 39 yards to Maag; past weeks: game clincher to AdZav).

    I've been as down on Bubba as anyone regarding some of his (hyper-)conservative play. But I do think he is learning and adapting. He may have gone for it on 4th as much in five games this year as the total of his prior tenure. And he actually let his offense keep going after 34 points on the board. Dare I say he may finally be changing with the game as it changes around him.

    Pollsters confuse UND and NDSU ... ... I had to go and pull the pin on that grenade didn't I.
  9. Mr. Chaves former organization is in a tough stretch: EWU is 1-3 (W over TennSt; L to Oregon, MontSt, Florida) and have Massey's 1-2-3 (Sac, Mont, Weber) left in their BSC schedule. Finding seven FCS wins for them is looking straight up hill.

    Did Mike watch the UND game? See: the "tap out" comment. How else would he know of MoiSt's lackluster second half and terrible body language in the fourth? Glad to have another fan, Mike.
  11. Mr. Blake needs to understand that time and space won't be like it was before college. He got one lesson in that from the Bisons in the second.

    Massey power ranking moved us from 19 to 15 (+4) MoiSt went -7 to 21. https://masseyratings.com/cf/fcs/ratings
  13. So say you have a guy that's been driving tandem axle trucks since he was 9 or 10. Was float shifting at 12. Went on to a career where he wrote software to automate a manual transmission to be self-shifting based on driver push-button commands so he's driven Class 8s around a test track "a couple times". And he may have written software for school buses so he's driven those too. That guy has to do this whole new hokey-pokey* should he want a CDL? Asking for a friend. *https://www.ndmca.org/entry-level-driver-training-theory-class-a/ I'm telling ya, the elected officials and bureaucrats who come up with this stuff couldn't organize a three-car parade: They can't see the logical outcome of a decision path.

    Those really don't align to a coherent strategy.

    Homecoming

    My thinking: 11 -> TD, 2 pt, FG to tie 12 -> It requires 2 TDs or three drives (TD, 2 FG).
  16. That doesn't sound right. https://www.dot.nd.gov/divisions/driverslicense/cdlrequirements.htm#cost

    Homecoming

    They called for a two point play at 26-21. To me that's easy; that's the right decision to try to go up seven. But at 32-21, they ran a two point play (yes, it worked, 34-21 and up 13); but, I would've called for the K and go up 12. Your thoughts?

    Homecoming

    How many teams can say they played FOUR quarterbacks in a game: Schuster, Vaughn, Romfo for the goal line RPO, Feeney to run victory formation*. *He did take two shotgun snaps (run plays) which did concern me given our propensity for "airmailing" those at times.

    Homecoming

    Someone asked if people thought it over at 21-10. I was unimpressed by the 55 yard run given up as the first play from scrimmage.
  20. That "7" was mid-teens mid-week before the game.
  21. This team cannot hope to win. It needs to plan to win and travel expecting to win if they execute the plan.

    Do they not teach rules of the game any longer? That goes for both sides.
  23. Why not just tell us it's either just out of city limits or in a tax abatement district.

    Homecoming

    Two illegal man down field calls negating about 50 yards of plays. My DVR still says "fumble". (I don't see a knee down unless I'm looking at the wrong thing.) And a phantom PI. And only down one at half.
