Longtime fan

Yeah I'm talking tongue in cheek ...kinda. It's just that UND is decimated at ILB and he has the size, speed, smarts, first step twitch to play ILB. Probably lacks the aggressive nature to play D and obviously he hasn't practiced at ILB but if UND sustains anymore injuries...I wonder if he would be a candidate out of necessity. He is a great talent that rarely sees the field.

Since Rudolph forgot JJ is on the team , Schmitty should see if he wants to play some ILB. Big fast dude

Streveler was sliding??? He doesn't come across as one that slides. Looks to me he got tripped up and Tamas finished it

Any team can definitely be beat on any given day but jmu is a machine right now. Imo, it would take jmu to completely fail on all levels and the opposing team to be at the top of their game to beat them. Barring injury/injuries jmu breezes to their second consecutive championship. USD can compete with any other team.

haven't heard what kind of injury or to what extent they will miss but add: OT- stockwell- possibly the best OL and has many starts under his belt. CB- holm- fastest guy on the team and was coming on strong in the coverage dept *this has been just a brutal year that has targeted certain positions. How many guys are left in the next man up bullpen!?

Untouchable...no. Just not yet warranted.

Season is far from over...hope the fans realize that! The players need to regroup and forget Saturdays meltdown. (^%#! I'm still pissed!) Hoping for 11000-12000 Saturday to support the team. As always, I will lose my voice by halftime mont st brings a good team to the Al but UND is more then capable of beating them. They will not do what they did in vermillion. No way!

Everyone on that bus ride Saturday should deserves criticism.....although Santiago sounded like he was the only one with a care. Big difference between Schmitty and Rudolph. Schmitty is competent and knows his $#%^. UNDs D has been the backbone to UNDs success since the bubba hire. Not always perfect but incredibly improved since muss days. Injuries/defections at one position (ILB) have taken a massive toll this year. USD exposed that weakness. Rudolph on the other hand, is busy in the press box trying to catch Pokémons since his hire.

Mont st could have easily beaten SDSU last week. They definitely looked like a better team then sdsu. Maybe sdsu had a bad game? UND on the other hand....well....they were taken the woodshed by USD....no contest. Competitive teams that want to make a deep run in the playoffs don't lose 45-7....could of been worse if usd kept with their first half throttle. Mont st d is getting better. Stout front. Rudolph, as usual, will be out matched in this one. Mont st qb is the real deal (Seems like a reoccurring theme). He is in the same category as Huntley and streveler as a above ave athletic dual threat qb. Not quite to those two status....yet, nevertheless, very dangerous! UNDs ILB crew scare me. Young, inexperienced and LIGHT! This is the Ds weak spot....very prone to being run on. But...it is what it is and they need to play as "big" as they can from here on out, starting with the bobcats. Injuries have set up shop on the o line as well. What looked to be a good healthy group has lost 3 starters in two weeks. Playing inexperienced underclass men to begin conf play is not what the dr ordered. Rudolph has a hard enough time already understanding offensive flow, creativity, play selection...etc...that playing these young guys up front will only add more confusion to his page 1 playbook. If UND plays anywhere near what they did yesterday they will get rolled by mont st . Being it's at home, I don't see that happening. I'm with geaux on the "niceness" factor. I mentioned it to the group I was with vs misery st....it seems like they play to nice! Not asking for dirty or cheap, just a little emotion or spark, legal aggresion, namely on D. Tamas brings the "nasty" without a doubt and offensively....Brady. They play football the way it should be played Bubba better preach discipline....the first three games have been horribly undisciplined....and embarrassing!! Conference play starts this week, UND needs the fan support more then ever after yesterday's debacle....show up Saturday and be loud!!

How the $&@& does Brady only get 4 carries??? Did izzy play?? Did JJ play???

UNDs d will have issues stopping the run up the middle the remaining of the year. Injured personal adding up. Through 3 games they are giving up 5.0 yards/carry, 8 tds and 212 yards/game. Although...the big sky will make it a little easier....big sky doesn't have any "push" style offenses....just finesse, so UND could be a little better in that aspect the next 9 games.

Lol. Forum tough guy!

1-12 on 3rd down against SD!? Just wow.

Thinking the same thing. There injuries to the same positions....just very very unfortunate. Mentioned it before, but bubba just turned the corner on quality depth. This is just unattainable.

Not going to sugar coat this one at all.....this loss hurt and in so many ways. I have said for sometime USD is good and expected them to do some damage in the mvfc, but if UND wanted to be taken serious and looked upon as a potential title contender, this is a game they win...or at minimum a close loss. Instead they $&@! the bed. And that's being nice . USD could of just as well been playing NorthEast Wisconsin st tech. UND offered no resistance. I taped this game , definitely will not watch it. My frustration level currently is at 10!!

Wow!! Santiago injured??

What was unds first offensive play?

How the hell are the likes of Alabama, Norte dame in a USD vs UND gameday discussion!?

Fortunately I couldn't watch the game......just read through a few pages......ugh!. Sounds like many people , players to blame . Completely embarrassed today!!! Congrats to USD. ILB is just WAY to banged up. Starting 195 lb walk on freshman!? Love the guy (Rastas) but he should not be starting at this point in his career. If Donnell and Connor were the starters today UND would have faired much better. ILB have lost Poole, Connor( massive), Donnell( massive), Cam, Noah (big) ......way to much. When half of your two deep is walk ons.....you know that position is hurting . Not to mention jake hasnt played that position before this year. The whole LB in general is just way to light. All balance around 200 lbs. They need beef to sustain this style of offensive play with constant 300-315 lb men leaning and pushing on them. At this point I think UND needs to go undefeated, earn automatic bid, in big sky to have a chance at playoffs. The big sky OOC has been brutal this year 9-2 and at very least 8-3( one conf loss) I turn many colors thinking about Rudolph......I have spoken my frustration with him for three years. As loyal as bubba is , he needs to make a decision. When drake scores the same as UND!!!!!....there's issues. No $&@&! excuses !! EMBERRASING!! The D didn't play well either but going against a style of offense, you need your offense to burn off mins to keep the D fresh. USD exposed unds lightweight LB crew today....fortunately UND gets the big sky teams that really don't offer the same style of offensive attacks. Unfortunately UND isn't a contender at the moment.....to many question marks and injuries. Long season yet ....they have time to turn it around and it starts with Mont st. Bubba better be losing his voice screaming at coaches and players alike on the ride home. USD punced the !@#$ out you for a KO. Made UND look like a high school team. Never seen a bubba team so undisciplined..... NO MORE INJURIES!!!!

Don't let streveler get comfortable and UND wins comfortably cmon Rudolph....open page two of the playbook and hit the coyotes hard!!!!!

GO UND!!!

Streveler is as close to a one man show offensively as it gets. Need to contain his run and make him beat you with the pass. He may be very capable of throwing the ball well but he prefers to make you look silly with his running ability which he does frequently. Take away the duel threat status and make him one dimensional ! Unds LBs need to be as sound and disciplined as ever. GO UND!!!

Lol. Like CNN.....my curiosity gets the better of me and I need to visit AGS for a good laugh. They never disappoint!

Limit explosive plays! Streveler will get his yards but UND needs to not over pursue on play actions. He runs that system perfectly. Streveler also seems to take full advantage when the pocket collapses and he has one on one.....up the middle or the edge. Very talented.....big, fast and slippery. These usd games are always close Und 34-32

Geaux is a great representative for UND on opposing teams forums ...as well as Sioux 512.
