Thats what I though, especially after they lost out on Eli Gilman. You'd think they would be recruiting Johnson hard and tried to get him up for a game. Though I'd have rather had him up there for the NDSU loss than the Illinois St. win.

I really don't think Q is all that multi dimensional. Any time they run him it is up the gut. Doesn't seem to have the speed and twitch to get to a hole fast or get outside and make something on a scramble. I'm not saying he has never run successfully (for more than a yard or so), but certainly not like what you see from true dual threat QBs. That and his arm hasn't exactly put on a show either, and he has been give more opportunities this fall. Not saying Q is a bad QB or player, but if we are going to talk about top tier, game changing QBs, I just wouldn't put him in that conversation yet. I actually think Tommy would be a more successful runner, if he would just take his opportunities; there have been plenty of them.

Anything less than a sweeps is Dawg$hit, and unacceptable!

You are correct. Bunnies are absolutely good, but absolutely beatable. Depends which UND team shows up, hopefully not the offense from this past weekend.

I just don’t see us making the playoffs, but would be happy to be wrong. A win next weekend will not do it, a win with a UNI loss ... we would have to see what else happens around the country and would need a ton of help. I don’t see W Illinois beating a UNI team who is also trying to find a way to sneak in. At 6-5 UNI would absolutely get the nod before UND. Beating SDSU would basically give us 1 good win on the season.

Is beating the bunnies wouldn’t have mattered anyway in comparison to USD.

I don't think you can use a single play to define the direction of this offense. Yes, they are way too conservative and Yes, that was a nice timely play to give them a chance at some points. They need to be doing that more often.

I almost made a Kostich comment when we got the block. He's done a far better job than he did a few seasons back. I have bigger concerns right now than Kostich.

I really feel like these two team are battling for a higher spot in the draft.

That is soooo UND

Distance wise, I think so. Accuracy wise, who knows. Probably still more likely than us passing for a TD.

I feel like we are always on the other end of this, giving up points right at the end, rather than being in the position to get them.

I'd run 3 times up the gut and take a knee ...

Maybe he figured if he didn't the last yard it would be on Danny ......

Dial up the pressure here!

I'd love to see it happen, and there is something to recency, but I doubt it.

He has really been a disasppointment. He just seems so soft for his size. Looked to have a ton of potential early on.

I'm not sure why we don't go to Zavalney more often than we do. He has become so effective.

They be us head to head, not sure how they don't get the edge.

Wooooaaaahhhh! 4th and 1 and we just snuck it!

USD would have the edge of us, and UNI has a far better resume of wins, with an FBS lost to Iowa State.

more than the short yardage trick plays

I like how they are saying we still have play off hopes. I just don't see it. I think we have a 0% chance. IF, and that's a big if, a 6 win team were to get in, there are others that would have a the tie breaker over us.

We've seen the offense play great, but I'm at a loss for the play calling at the moment.

I'll give Holinka credit there, he is the only one that ever seems to adjust and he seems to do it pretty well.
