It's safe to assume Bartels is still hurting from the Montana game. He got crunched a few times and looked to have really hurt his ribs. This, in addition to his utter lack of anything resembling a QB in his play, should open the door for Mollberg. I hope......

Last I heard they were shipped the wrong color pants or something along those lines so they sent them back and are waiting on the right ones to come in. I heard that about a month ago so who knows if they have them yet or not. I sure hope they do. I'm excited to see them.

We're talking Byron Leftwich long... he basically scrapes the ball on the ground. It does not help our WRs with separation.

I sure hope so. I wouldn't mind a green one myself.

NDSU has had a few get a 6th year recently. Vraa and Vaadeland I believe. Maybe another as well.

I've heard from a rock solid source that the team will be getting a grey kit next followed by a black kit. The best part is that we will also be getting grey/silver helmets with a green number on one side and a green nd on the other. I'm personally a huge fan of a silver/grey helmet like the ones we had back in the day. Also the players will love it.

In two seasons, if we continue to find players in positions of need like we did this year at RB, we will be the best team in the big sky. Book it.

For everyone who is questioning our run oriented philosophy on offense and defense you need to realize that it's about more than the big sky. It's about playoffs and being able to win anywhere at any time. When the weather is bad you need to be able to run and stop the run. Against pro style teams from other conferences we will be built to handle it unlike other Big Sky teams who fizzle in the playoffs. Even in the Big Sky teams run the ball plenty and you need to be able to stop it. It's easier for passing plays to get screwed up so forcing teams to throw is the right plan. We're just not quite there yet. Just think about how much higher the expectations have been this year. We've gotten a lot better and have just come across some tough luck at some thin positions.

Bartels did not do very well at this yesterday. There were multiple times where the Griz showed blitz and we don't adjust and we get stuffed.

We do need to get more aggressive on defense again. With all the injuries we seem to have called the dogs off a bit. It's a tough situation. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

The one thing about our young corners is they weren't getting burned ala ol number 17. They were with their man on most of the long passing plays. They just need to make the next step and challenge for the ball with their eyes and hands. Once they do that we may be in business. I think they all have the talent and size to be pretty decent.

We could use a couple drop down corners and a safety. As well as some HS kids.

Whoever we play at qb needs to be given the chance to get into rhythm. By basically passing exclusively on third and long we are setting them up to fail. Same with our fantastic rbs. Sprinkle some passes in to loosen things up and keep them honest.

Joey Swag got any eligibility left?

Any questions? We might as well be in the wild cat.

Bartels needs to be benched. He literally can't complete a five yard slant to a wide open wr. He is killing us as much as our pass defense is.

The move by Stecher..... Holy !@#$

Sanderson

If you have the right package.

Pretty sweet for Herwrinkley to get a shutout on the road. Herwrinkley for Hobey?

Oxbow!!!...... I mean Chyzk

That would be fun to troll the NCAA but let's be honest they're more likely to put it inside the outline of a swastika.

They're probably doing so well because they have Big Snacks. He would've looked damn good in the middle of Schmittys defense. Damn shame.

nice, never heard of the guy from Memphis.

For either school. Both teams have missed being 6-1 or 5-1 by razor thin margins despite the injuries each have suffered.
