  1. Show us the quotes that reference that someone said it would hurt Penn State football. So a sport that seats 5000 to 6000 is going to hurt a sport that seats 100,000 plus? I would like to see the quote that claims that.
  2. Go to page 199 of this thread and read about another recruit that didn’t put up huge points. I thought that guy was going to be a role player. Not that you don’t need role players, but we tend to pigeon hole players based on their stats. Players develop at different paces. Great role players are essential for great teams. You are exactly right, you never know!
  3. I really liked Players Sports Bar and Grill in the day. Good specials.
  4. Doesn't seem like there is room. See players running into the walls as it is.
  5. I can do without McCord, but Kostis kind of surprises me. McCord tries too hard to be funny, and often misses the mark. I imagine if they are trying to go younger, he misses the mark even more. Silence sometimes is a lot more effective in certain situations, especially in golf.
  6. So these fans don’t attend because they can’t stand and cheer? Sounds like a convenient excuse for not going.

    But Bison73 says that they already cheat anyway.

    Will more recruits go to the bigger cities where there are major companies that can pay them for their name and image? There might be a bigger disparity between the haves and have nots.

    Montana St GDT

    Would have been interesting to see if Montana State coaches would have taken a safety had they not gone for two on their touchdown earlier rather than punt the ball with no room. Maybe they still would have punted being that a field goal would beat them anyway, but to be able to kick off and defend would have been much more desirable. Regardless, I think if Bubba would have made a decision to go for two in that circumstance, I don't think we would have been very happy. Seemed like a very strange decision, especially in retrospect.
  10. Which makes winning games like tonight all the more important.

    BSU @ UND

    After not making the tournament the last two years and how much trouble UND has had with Bemidji, there better not be any such thing as a trap game, especially when they didn’t come up with a win in Mankato.

    Montana State

    You got me. It just seems like it. Seriously, if he doesn’t take the ball against Montana State with the injuries on defense, when would he. Much more confident doing it this year with the first half play calling being less predictable.

    Montana State

    Whenever UND has won the toss they have always deferred, and I don't see Bubba changing that philosophy.

    We need to figure out a way to score against Bemidji's style of play. I know they have given us problems before, but if we want to be contenders this year, this would be a nice step in that direction. The power play will need to start clicking to help open up Bemidji State. If we can get early leads it might just open them up a bit so we can take advantage.

    Some people just aren’t happy when they aren’t complaining or negative. Must be fun to be around on a daily basis.

    Simonson plus 10 his first two years, while Wilkie was minus 6, despite playing more on offensive lines. Who is making stuff up?

    Simonson had more points his first two years than Wilkie did, and was more responsible defensively with a much better plus/minus. So I assume you weren’t one of the fans that was hard on Wilkie because of his lack of scoring?
  18. Yes, but none of that shakes out until the second half when there is some data to go on. We won’t even have a good idea on conference versus conference records for quite a while, which has a huge impact on the pairwise. Just win and hope the rest of the league performs up to expectations.
  19. Are we really looking at pairwise this early?
  20. Do you mean Jordan Schmaltz?
  21. Don’t forget about Wolanin.
  22. Carter Randklev back in the lineup with the Force tonight, and has an assist as of the second period.
  23. I’m sure we will need all hands on deck at some point this season, so hopefully they can get a lot of guys some ice time so we are healthy down the stretch.
  24. I’m on the opposite end of the spectrum on this. I think getting handled might take away some of the confidence gained last weekend. I think we hear a lot of talk about swag and confidence from the players, coaches and announcers because the coaches have probably emphasized it. I would hope one weekend wouldn’t damage confidence that much, but watching body language last year from week to week, makes me wonder if that might enter their minds again. Here’s to hoping we don’t find out.
  25. I think that it is as simple as they want defensively responsible people on the lower lines and will probably mix in players as they pay more attention to that detail. I think it is similar to the Dallas Stars calling up Gardner. I’m sure they have better offensive talent in their system, but are more concerned about defensive responsibility. Of course their record isn’t stellar either. Was kind of the same reason Adams was in and out of the lineup early in his career.
