Longtime fan

If it truly is a torn acl, which it likely seems to be....I feel terrible for Tanner. Played the game the way it should be played. Great player. Not the way a player wants to end his college career If Tanners season is done ....I would like to see Rastas move over to OLB. Absolutely love his style . His size is more adequate for OLB. Plus he’s buried deep at ILB.....get his talent on the field.

Thought I was at funeral. Crazy how many people can make so little noise

My main issue with bubba.....ND nice. Keep the throttle down at all times and maybe get the 2nd/3rd stringers in.

Nice win. Didn’t expect to see a convincing win over a team that had beat holier than thou UNI team

I won’t/can’t answer that directly. I saw a previous post that warned SS users to back off of the “negative” comments as moms, dads and potential recruits might use it against und. Apparently SS is the finalization if a recruit attends und or not. Who would of ever thought ! Fans on a forum board are a deciding factor in a recruits decision!? From now on we need to use proper, nice, sunshine comments to get recruits. People are watching and judging. If you have the time and/or the patience ....go back to some of the posts from 2016-2017-2018 years. Ive stated numerous times how “wonderful” Rudy is. It hasn’t changed.

20-10 und first half 10-24 Montana second half. 30-34 Montana

On paper .....this is a game und should win. Montanas OL is in shambles and their run D is suspect. Montana has the talent to be successful....they just need to have a complete game. Talent is there for und to be successful....but will be out-couched. The trend of und doing well in the first half will continue before adjustments are made by Montana at halftime. It’s a reoccurring theme I haven’t seen enough to this point of the year that would say that und has enough to come away with the W. Rudy could very well succumb to one individual...yes one guy....Olson. He is a stud .....Rudy isn’t. If Rudy was able to bring back the playbook from Idaho st first half I would like unds chances. Highly doubtful that will happen. Being at home helps ....having Rudy is major thorn in the ass. - Unds front 7 should have a fun day. - Montana owns the 3rd qtr - und will get ultra conservative - the crowd will quite as Montana owns the 3rd qtr - und “wins” the TOP ...only to lose the game with ultra conservative BS - same ol same ol *this a game that I truly believe that und could throttled the opponent. The matchups and styles are in unds favor. Unfortunately the coaching is not

Looking at the first 5 games ....defensively it’s been a roller coaster , offensively it's been what Ive expected....frustrating , ST is what I expected as well...inexperienced overall grade of opposing team mvsu : F ( 0-3) wash: A+ sam: C (2-2) Idaho st: C+ n colo: D (0-5) unds 3 wins...the teams have a combined 2-10 record game 1 - I remarked in the post game , outside of Brady, I was not impressed at all. This is the team that is widely considered the worst fcs team. The game should have been over in the 1st qtr just like every other mvsu game. Defense grade D offense grade. F Game 2: The D stepped up and played a fantastic 3 qtrs against a fantastic team.....ran out of gas in the fourth. This offense (oc) has a tough time against an average fcs team... this was a top 10 fbs team. Defense grade A- offense grade D ( Santiago - A) Game 3 : The D played a good game. In hindsight ....Sams offense has been average. They are not built like the past years. Und held them to their averages. In the 1st half, as has been the case this year, the offense was able to move the ball only to be outdone by the opposing DC in the 2nd half. Good road win Defense grade : B offense grade: D Game 4: the D was absolutely shredded in the first half. The offensive play calling was fantastic for a qtr and half ....then the fumble. The 2nd half....the D made adjustments and the offense did not. Horrible 2nd half showing by the offense Defense grade: D offensive grade : D game 5: A good showing against a winless team. 2nd half offense was same ol same ol. ST group hopefully gaining confidence Defense grade: A offense grade: B As I mentioned at the top ...the D has been a roller coaster but light years ahead of last year. They need to shore up the run D however. They have been getting exposed up front recently. Full confidence in this group to get it done. The offense.....I have continuously stated my frustrations with the OC. The talent is there to be much better then what we have been witnessing. They have the ability to play like the qtr and half that they did vs Idaho st ....against all but one fcs team they have scheduled this year. Weber is tough but no other team is known for defense.

This is well deserved

Oops my bad. Big misunderstanding on my part. Definitely fake news.

Nguyen and Mortel our for the year. Tackles are becoming very vey thin.

Correct me if I’m wrong.... I went through the game predictions this year and noted the word “need” three times. Is that correct? Can you help us out as to how many times it was used? It comes across as very much a drama queen the way you have stated it .

Was just going post that. Let’s hope they finish out the year strong. Also .....Sam is taking it to the # 13 in the nation. 3rd qtr

Nice win. The first game unc was throttled in its 0-5 season.

Bad wording on my part. What I meant by “seeing if the conservative play calling makes it way back” is that I suspect conservative play calling will be what Rudy will do. I want their foot on the throttle.

Exactly. Let’s see if the conservative play calling makes it way back.....then watch unc creep back in. Looking good so far.

Now hearing Santiago is doubtful.... my original projection was that und would score 23. Und 14-21. Bad guys. Until I see anything short of a full game that the play calling is exposing the opposing Ds weakness and /or correct adjustments are made this offense holds back und again. I say it every game and yet every game is a near mirror image of the last. UNCs D is average at best so und SHOULDNT have any issues offensively but yeah...... With the speedy WR Unc has I could see the our CBs getting burnt a few times as well

Apparently not. This was it....

What’s the chances that und scores 30 for the first time this year against a somewhat, maybe, kinda.....competent d1 team. Mvsu is not a competent d1 team ....they are equivalent to naia mid level talent.... at best. Most d1 teams drop 50 -70 pts on them. Und struggled to get 35 against them. Could we see 30 against a team thats 0-4 ? I say und scores 23. Most of those points will of course come in the first half before adjustments have been made by the opposing DC. Opposing DCs make Rudy look like a child. Five years of offensive greatness continues ???..... and yes....... I am, and have been for 5 years, completed frustrated with the talent that is wasted in this offense!! Santiago’s 1 td this year amplifies my frustration. Four games in and he has one td !??!? They have played mvsu, Idaho st, Sam and Washington. Outside of Washington the defenses of the other three teams are equal to a class b team. Is anybody on this forum happy with the offense the last 5 years ?? If so ....state your reason.

The thing about Santiago.... he ignites double coverage by every team just by being on the field. This is where Rudy could/should exploit the opposing teams weakness. Teams have an eagle eye directed to Santiago. So many ways to use #22 .....whether the ball is in his hands or not. Every team “bites” when it looks like he’s getting it.

Weah looks the “part” of a football player. I agree give him some reps to see what he’s capable of doing. Ncaa has granted four free games to test a kid.

Und needs Santiago but if he needs rest up I like giving Cam some reps. Talented kid.

Was it Izzy that dove for the ball over the middle and got up slowly hunched over holding his midsection? Don’t think he returned after that.

One of them could be Santiago. He missed a portion of the Idaho st game. Groin or hammy is what it looked like.

I agree. Would like to see a couple INTs as well
