Hidden stat in that comparison is our QB has taken a couple sacks that moved us out of FG range. Frustrating game today.

This. I’d bring pressure every 3rd down against us. Our WR aren’t getting behind you, our QB is not throwing it downfield or breaking a tackle.

Really want to see how this team responds today. I think the leadership is there. We will find out.

The administration really needs to work on getting a trophy back for this game.

That is him. Glad to hear that. He was a talented back.

My one take away from last year vs the Yotes was they had a real physical RB that was really talented. We need to bottle him up again. Legit talent.

I agree. That is a possession that teams like NDSU get a field goal and just change the energy if a game right before halftime. They have done that for years. It was another missed opportunity on Saturday during that game.

Looking forward to how this team responds come Saturday. Not an easy place to play and a USD team that is improved over last year. Can we be as physical as Saturday? Will the offense and namely running game show up?

After watching that game yesterday I hope he will enjoy his time being a blocking WR.

That thread is hilarious.

The other frustrating part is they didn’t have a returner back. We had the opportunity to boom a punt, maybe get a bounce for additional yardage and flip the field back in our favor. Head scratcher today for sure.

I feel better about our defense, wish one of those games was at the Alerus. Next week will be a dog fight.

Wouldn’t have hurt to have fans on the catwalk in that spot…….

Crowd noise. Help the defense out. Turn some of those 3rd and short to medium into 3rd and medium/long. The tin shed can be loud. Crowd can play a part. Players still need to make some plays. NDSUs easiest approach to communication will be hand the ball off.

Good thing he’s not in the field tomorrow. The players are the ones who need to prove they belong. They haven’t done that yet vs FU

Summit teams need to look out for themselves as well. Any of their teams look at football only for other conferences, backfill them with someone else. Stop making it easy for teams to continue to leave. The MVFC and Summit league are in the same offices correct?

Ohio St should really get serious about football like the other schools you mentioned. https://www.thelantern.com/2021/09/football-ohio-state-to-debut-all-scarlet-uniforms-against-penn-state/

He’s making himself look like it. Poor look. Like most FU fans, downplay spring. .

Entertaining read with McFeely and Schlossman Twitter about spring season. McFeely is such a tool about trying to downplay anything spring season.

Why would MVFC members who are members of the Summit league want to keep them in the Summit if they leave the football conference for a football only invite. Let them figure the other sports out.

Unless your playoff games are at home.

Was holding out hope that an offense that actually throws the football could get him away from family ties. As his offers suggest he is a really good football player/athlete.

Hoping to not see “the look” from Bubba. We all know the look and it usually means we are in trouble.

One could argue our chances in this game will be determined by our interior 3 OL on offense and NG and 2 ILBs on defense. Can’t have a repeat of last year.

I believe it’s looking at how Drake attacked our defense. They had some success (relative) running up the middle. I’m guessing NDSU is going to pop that tape In and get Luepke warmed up at HB. Lots of improvement needs to happen to slow that down in two weeks.
