    It feels like we need to score first and get some early breaks to beat them. We lose confidence quickly on the road it seems - maybe as early as the warmup.

    Last week's start was great. A nice lead heading to half time before they scored late to cut it.

    Skokna got hurt and didn't play the second half.  Didn't hear Pedigo's name called yesterday.  Assuming he's out injured, too?

    Pettigo played alot if not the whole game.

    I feel like we have been down on the linebacker side especially the outside linebackers the past 2yrs. The 3-4 can be crazy good. The key to this defense is the 3 down lineman especially the NG. He is the tip of the spear who determines the flow. Their job is to force as many double teams as possible and occupy lineman to keep your playmaking linebackers, clean to make whatever plays they need to make. Problem is we’ve been undersized on the line, and a little under athletic at the linebacker position since Jackson. Pedigo has been the only linebacker that really is getting home for us. Mullin has made a few big plays, and Buckner flashes once in a while. But consistency is a problem. I feel like we have addressed the line. But we’re still looking for those outside backers to show up.
     

    You have a good grasp of what it takes in the 3-4 but I'm just not seeing the big guys occupying 2 OL's consistently. I like Pedigo especially in the last two games and I I wish McNeal had 10 more pounds of meat on him, but he's been good. 

    Still need to tackle better across the board.

  4. The main critique I have of UND Football in general is that I can't recall the last time the D was better than the O.

    It starts with recruiting. The OL has brought in quite a few 300+ guys while the D has the 2 transfers and not much else. 

    It may be the 3-4 way, but how many tackles do the interior linemen make per game? 

    The O put up over 500 yards yesterday. That's crazy.

    The D gave up over 300. That's not good.

    elite.

    So in your opinion, those who vote for MVFC and the Payton stuff are really that much dumber than you and others?

    I’ll admit, they’ve regressed some, but they’ll reload, so UND needs to keep pushing 

    I will never doubt their ability to reload, but I think the high level recruits they have can show their worth in Fargo for a year or two and then hit the Portal as many did last year.

    Jack Simmers leads GF Central past Jamestown and to the Dakota Bowl. We get to see him face off against Haugo from North. Gotta think we’re looking at Simmers fit at least a PWO

    The North TE is a beast and the Nose Guard is over 300. 

  8. Watching the replay last night verified the loss of Z in the backfield is huge.

    There were some holes between the tackles where the RB just didn’t see, and I think that is Zs strength.

    On Isaiah’s big run he bounced it out and found great perimeter blocking. Maybe could have done more of that.

     

    Also realized Petigo gad a great game.
