Low and behold Mackey had a good game........ I still don't like how he plays though. He's given opponents more tds than he's stopped.

I think you need to look at the quality of players we've had from Illinois the last couple of years that would account for the discrepancy. We've gotten back to our Midwestern roots in the last couple classes and it's no surprise that they've been our best.

Made nice throws. Also chicken winged (dropped elbow) on a couple throws. Ints weren't great either. One was particularly bad. Could be better but still a freshman and that 3rd down to Golladay was pretty clutch.

Turnovers were forced.... That was almost weird. A couple players looked good but the team didn't.

Mackey is a fucking dipshit

Mackey just made the play if his career right there

How do you know it's not the older players that they're fed up with?

So you're against a fr becoming a leader? It's a good thing that all the young guys are pissed about losing and want to do something about it

Mix Windmer Alchemy and Blue Moon with a squeezed orange slice for the aromatic effect and you've got a delicious beer combo.

#8 woooooo game day in BEAUTIFUL Pocatello? Idaho. Idaho.... the sunshine state..... where the beer flows like wine.

I'm excited to see the new road unis at least. They'll look nice.

They need to destroy ISU to get things back on track. A close game would be as damaging as a loss

If they were suspended for a game that means there was plenty other punishment that was less obvious to outsiders.

What type of locker room stuff is going on?

There isn't the leadership the team needs in the seniors and juniors. That means some younger guys need to get a voice and lead people. Why not have some freshman step up if no one else will? All it takes is the younger guys to make a stand and it could change the culture of the program. It's clear that there are issues. Those won't change unless people step up. If it's freshman stepping up than it shows how weak the upper class man are and how strong the younger classes are. In a way it's encouraging that the young guys aren't accepting losing culture but it's also pathetic that things have gotten to this point.

Time for him to put his money where his mouth is and be a leader then.

My Christmas wish list would be Mackey and Hall

As strong a leg as Zeb had he doesn't need to hit a lower trajectory to make it from 54. If he had a weaker leg I'd agree, it's usual for kickers to hit it lower from that distance but not if they have a huge leg. He's no Blair Walsh but he's also no Robbie Gould in terms of leg strength. Zeb needs to get his kicks up if he wants to get a pro look.

NDSU actually did have a lot of attrition.That pared with a really good class followed by another good one equalled a lot of playing time for young players and a huge senior class this season. And I'm not defending Mussman as everyone seems to think. Just because I'm not talking about blowing up the program and rebuilding from the ashes like everyone else all the time doesn't mean I don't think things need to change. I'm able to look at things without my view being clouded by emotion over three shity losses in a row. Sure I think changes need to be made but there are others things to talk about as well.

Until half way through the season. And UND kinda sucks this year.

I'm really looking forward to seeing this new class with all of the local kids. Much better class than the previous two.

You're vastly under rating the unknowns of recruiting.

It was tipped. Zeb has always had an issue with getting the ball up early.

The reason Joe needs to use more touch is because some throwing windows aren't straight on. He has to be able to spin it over one defender and under the safety on some throws ala Hanson. He's kinda like a young Hendrickson at this point with the rocket arm and trouble with softer touch passes. He'll improve, I just hope it's this week.

Exactly. They had way too much in their plates to succeed. I'm not sure why that was but I hope Schleusner adjusts the offense so the team can succeed.
