Hey....let's try a fg!!

Rudolph getting back in a comfort zone

Is there a reason to a fg ???? This season is lost!?

Rudolphs ears are smoking

Well ....only down 0-14 end of first qtr against 0-7 team. Got them right where they want them!!

Whaaaat!?

Absolutely. And the injured will as well. Next year will look nothing like this year . Rudolph needs to be Minot bound

EWU will be rock bottom

This could be game.

Can we try some zim?

Int! $&@&

How about sac st at home!? They hadn't won a road game in three years and had a fresh QB . Embarrassing!

At this point ....why not

How about Rastas at nose, heidlebaugh at one DE and bollant at the other DE....fast elusive group!!!

Rudolph is still here .....UND will struggle to stay on the field offensively. UND desperately needs a win to group the guys......Und 23-21

What Rudolph brings to the table is a consistent barrage of predictability, no in game strategies or changes, doesn't adapt to his personal, has a difficult time reading what a defense is giving him (or doesn't care) and how to exploit a defense. Instead he continually runs the same f&^*^+€ four plays! Only when they get down by three tds that he turns to page 2 in his playbook. At that point the offense resembles an offense. If he had any offensive aptitude , he would see that sending Santiago up the middle on every €%^>!< 1st down is not working!! The opposing Ds have set up shop along the line waiting to lay smack on the 175 lb. A combination of luck and Santiagos skill/talent will get him more then 2 yards.....yet Rudolph keeps wearing that play out!!! Everyone knows it's going to happen! How much more of those hits can Santiago absorb? Can you tell me one way that Rudolph has used Santiagos skills/talent to better the offense this year or last? Is it by powering him up the middle? Against the Ds in the big sky....Santiago should be around 150 -200yards ave (run/rec) per game without question. Instead his junior has been flushed down the toilet. We get one more year out of what is quite possibly the most explosive player to wear Kelly green. Is it a rule at UND to run on every first down? What a waste of a down. Wonder what would happen if they started a few series out with a pass? Would someone's head explode?.....serious question TEs usage? Apparently he thinks TEs are not made/built for catching? He will not use them....unless down by 20...then maybe, just maybe he will look their way a couple of times and then right back to Santiago up the middle He had heidelbaugh in front of zim? Nothing else needs to be said Can the FBs roll out for a screen ? How about quick two step drops?? Passing options on 1st downs?? Santiago out wide? Nothing! Same four plays over and over. Last year.....UND should have offensively crushed most of the teams they played in the big sky. They didn't . The D was constantly bailing them out and getting them into position or even scoring. Is there other issues like , dropped passes, the o line needs to improve , not the fastest WRs? Sure. That's where a OC would typically recognize the personal he has and change up the philosophy enough to make suitable for the talent he has and then stray away from calling the same four plays that don't work. He's incapable of everything that is offense. On a positive ....I hear he's a really nice guy The four year experiment hasn't worked......it's time

Watched the game again matt cox was either being pushed back all day or the defender just ran around him. He shouldn't be starting Rooney was pushed back quite frequently but more often then not, he kept the guy in front of him. Rastas has the heart , the will and the mentality to be a special player.....just needs to gain 25-30 lbs. He has taken on the leader roll for the D. Very aware and is constantly trying to the guys in the right position. He's very aggressive ...just 190 lbs ! His hits would mean something if he were 230lbs DEs have nearly been nonexistent this year. Offense needs to be reminded that the TEs are a pass catching option. Santiago needs to be lined out wide .....he is just taking a beating running straight up the gut against guys that are 100 lbs bigger then he is. JJ and Brady at least have the girth to with stand some of that beating....Santiago is a tough SOB but man..... opposing teams are targeting true fresh blubaugh. Really like the guy but he shouldn't be playing this year.....more less starting. Canady is going to be a special player. Would love to see a zim to izzy connection.....zim can really throw the long ball and izzy is simply a burner.

The last three games ....hmmm How many catches do the TEs have? How many catches do the RBs have? How many 1st downs weren't running plays up the middle? Does UND have an offensive play that has a two step drop? How many freshmsn start on D? How many carries does James have? How many times has Santiago lined up out wide? How many injuries does UND have on D ? How many drops do the WRs have?

Thank you geaux! This thread has been needed for three years The offensive talent on this team is being completely wasted. Rudy has no business being an OC. His kindergarten play calling and lack of in game control is an embarrassment to UND and college football. Bubba needs to rid of loyalty tomorrow......Rudy needs to walk. I will begin to question bubba if he keeps Rudy.

Rudolph had him at the end of the bench as of two weeks ago.....no way he starts him....he just doesn't get it.

Rudolph will go with an injured Keaton ....book it.

You're right....Rudy. I CAN NOT TAKE THE CONSTANT PREDICTABILITY .....he needs to go!!! Bubba better grow a pair and dismiss his ass.

Rudys "complex" offense is so difficult to learn that rudy himself has a hard time. Give him four more years to figure it out.

By way of Webster ,the word play means to engage in activity for enjoyment and recreation rather than a serious or practical purpose. Rudys "play" calling comes across very recreational and not serious. sac st 49-28

Have to feel for the players that are not only injured but the ones playing giving their all. It can't be easy to deal with. As much as we (fans) hate losing, imagine their frustration.
