UND 38 MSU 34 FINAL!!! We overcame a 10 point deficet in 6:46 to win Lennon: had a few last year like this, you have to expect this on the road... it's never easy. We didn't give up. Ten down with six minutes we found a way to do it at the end. We said we needed to score, to give ourselves a chance, had a couple of nice plays... didn't use much time and that was the biggest thing. The play to Chappell was just a crosser, he came under and found the seam... he was banged up today, battling a bruise since the first play. Defense had final two stands... made the stand when we had to... gave the ball back to the offense. A lot of things that need improvements. Great to get the win, but we need to get better and that was obvious today. Did some on the field coaching today so we did some adapting to get some pressure. Hope the place is full next week for UNO. We'll get ready for UNO tomorrow Manke: Knew it was going to be a back and forth game, needed the one big play that changed the momenunt, and we were able to get that. They like to spread the field, got some great athletes, they made a lot of big plays today. Stay positive between series, offense keeps bailing us out... we came together as a team today. King is a gunslinger, so we knew he was gonna throw, which he did. Want to improve on sharpening up technique, learning schemes more, and individual responsibilities. Mike (D-line): One of best offensive lines we've seen all year. Made adjustments in the second half. I was getting double teamed, they were making adjustments against us. We lined up in different packages to try and get some pressure on King. King is a real good QB. He stayed calm in the pocket. Most time played in a game, felt good. Defense needs to work hard and keep working to prepare for next week. Freund: Offense struggled a little bit. Guys never gave up, played hard and with determination. We knew we were still in it but it was going to be hard to come back. Defense made some key stops. We got in the endzone when we needed to. Very athletic/active defensive front. Probably best so far this season... we'll see tougher down the road. O-line was making adjustments, as was I, getting rid of the ball sooner. We came together at the end and came out with the W. At halftime we said we needed to execute, everyone does their part, throw well, catch well. When you're down there is a sense of urgency, I wanted to be the leader, had some guys banged up, we pulled throw. 6:46 left drive - we needed to sling it around, get down the field quick, put some points on the board, let the defense make a stand. (holy crap he talks fast) Radio goes out.... Something about similar to Weston at Northern Iowa last year.... insert more static.... Murray not afraid to play with the big boys...

I don't know what happened to our football team... but we sure need to figure it out before next weekend!!! You can't blame this much on the wind.... someone needs to step up and do something. We can't get pressure on the QB... we can't run the ball... we don't seem to be passing the ball either... and Freund just seems confused. If we didn't have Dressler and Co. on kick/punt returns we would have had a VERY long day... at least we have decent field position most times...
