Football game on CBS Sports on a Friday against Utah St.

Looks like that injury was pretty serious.

Rule of thumb: I never reference tiktok.

Wow. Wasn’t aware of that. I’d like to take this opportunity to say !@#$ tiktok. Get off my lawn, stop existing please. I stands for fixed your post.

FYP

Can’t wait for Montana to go undefeated and win the natty again like they do every year. Covid stopped their dynasty!

Same shity food as Dells or a new menu?

9 deep on the DL would be a dream. SDSU subbed all the time on the DL and it gave them huge advantages in the 4th quarter.

On the DL we haven’t done a good job of recruiting guys with large enough frames to easily carry the necessary weight. Blair is a good example from a few years ago. If you’ve ever seen him on street clothes you’d notice he’s very slender with narrow shoulders. Really tough to get a guy like that to 300 lbs.

Like the EWU LB who won the Buchanan the year they won a natty? He was like 5’10”. Look, I’m not advocating we look for short guys, that’s stupid. I’m advocating we don’t overlook studs because they’re a couple inches short. A lot of times those guys would go to the B1G if they we those couple inches taller. I also never said anything about going for short DBs or DL do I’m not sure where you’re coming from for that.

These are valid points. My main point is, at the point of contact, with a strong RB, our LBs tend to get moved backwards. That generally didn’t happen to the group I reference as the body type and thump standard. In fact they regularity blew backs up in the hole.

You mean a shorter stubby LB like say...... idk...... Quinton Urwiler? BTW watch Rattelles HS film. If we aren’t trying to find guys like that every year we’re failing at recruiting.

Not sure. None of the guys have it in them to be built like Rattelle and move like he did. None of the guys have the thump that Rich Jr had either. Guys usually are pretty well filled out by their jr year. However, they can be the size they are if we have a dominant DL. We absolutely need to have DEs 270-290 and NGs 290-320. With that in front of them an average LB group could do a lot of damage.

Would have been an undefeated seed if they were better at stopping the run and would have actually had a chance against JMU, so yeah, results on the field. In our two losses they were getting blasted. I’d prefer to be the hammer, how about you? Additionally, that 2015 team was probably better than our team this year by the end of the season when the offense was clicking. Their getting gyped from the playoffs wasn’t because the LBs weren’t stout.

The results on the field speak for themselves. Also, the weights listed aren’t exactly accurate all the time. NDSU game is the only thing I need to reference for this point.

If you compare to our 2015 LBS we're a little light across the board. DL is too small as well, but that’s been well covered. Idowu 6’2” 225 Turner 6’2” 225 Rattelle 5’11” 255 Larson 6’2” 240 Rich Jr 6’1” 240 Krzanowski 6’2” 235 Labat 6’3” 235 Haas 6’5” 230 We just don’t have the thump in the middle. I remember teams trying to run on us back in 2015 and getting stone walled. NDSU only rushed for 115 yards against that team and they were much better than the NDSU team that pounded our front 7 into dust this year.

Too small

Similar size to that guy NDSU has a few years ago who was an absolute stud for them.

Haven’t the slightest clue.

Absolutely, I hope it helps us land a couple high end safety transfers.

Not NDSU or SDSU or UNI.

Had offers from a lot of MVFC teams. EKU as well.

That’s the one
