I think the penalty you were thinking of was after the extra point. It was after the play so ISU hard to kick off 15 yards further back when they kicked off, which ended up setting us up on the 40 after Skokna's return. So no coaching mistake there. But the decision to go for 2 early was really dumb and could have cost us.

Agree, they are pretty predictable at this point. Although on the one late in the game when we were at about mid field and it was 3rd and long ...we threw one of those.....in my mind I was thinking they thought if we got close to the first down we would go for it because we're on their side of the field. But we came up like 4 yards short and punted anyway.

I am a little surprised we don't run Romfo more in the Wildcat, especially when we are struggling on offense.

Most haven't worked this year. Which might be due to we don't throw further than 5 yards down field on 95 percent of our plays. Tommy has had to throw a few into the ground because there was nothing there.

That is definitely good for us. I think towards the end of the game they showed that UND has somewhere around the 6th toughest strength of schedule so far? Thinking it was the schedule so far This season, but not the full season....didn't catch that for sure.

It was Bubba's, if not.....then he's not really the head coach.

I'm not saying it's not a good win, it was a very good win. It will be our only good win though if we lose to USD. If we lose to USD in a close one 7-4 probably gets us in, if it's another 27-0 loss on the road.....I dunno.

7-4 our only good win is against NDSU in our SB at home.

We HAVE to be more aggressive over the middle and down field. As I said in a post an hour or two ago, I don't care if we end up throwing a pick at some point. Sure we do get one big play later because defense is all up tight. But we cant continue to throw 22 1 yard passes a game to set up 1 long pass. We can only do that if we are averaging 5 yards up the middle on first down. That semi long completion to Elidor against SU early in the game was an important play to me in that game because it at least gave the impression that we might try and throw over you.

I'd rather risk Tommy throwing a pick 15 yards over the middle of the field than 22 1 yard pass plays. Something has to change to open things up if we are unable to pound up the middle on the ground.

I'd still like to hear from head coach why we went for 2, I'd like to hear the rationale for that. I mean I don't think there is one, seemed to make no sense given the situation. Maybe there is rationale and I'm missing it, so would love to hear it.

He did play like the season was on the line at the end there that is for sure. He made plays.

At least you have the option of taking a pill for that.

I do agree with that. As crappy as the game was, maybe something miraculously will come out of that comeback and spark us..... we'll see.

Welp.... we are still on track for 7-4 season.... possible home playoff win and then getting destroyed on the road.

I already know what Bubba will say on the presser. Somehing like......"I thought we had a good week of practice and we're focused, we just didn't execute that well and the other team made some big plays.

He made the last drive of the 4th quarter happen too. He hit Dennis on the hands on a perfect throw and he dropped it. While Tommy does have a ceiling, he does do a lot of things well.

You always go on defense first in OT if you have the choice. Then you know if you need a TD or just a FG

Wow these refs don't even know how OT works

Going for 2 there is only 2nd to going for it on 4th against SU. Two dumbest coaching decisions ever.

At this point just win damn it! I don't want the season to be over before the month of October ends!

A missed FG will top this off perfectly

I can see why Bubba is friends with their coach. He is trying to learn how to motivate guys to play hard on the road.

F this!!

Yep
