Not playing well........we set records for lowest yard total. I am putting it more on the schematics and philosophy in not being able to even come close to the yardage Incarnate Word put up on a better NDSU defense than we faced on Saturday. (I am really pissed, but I do like and respect all of our coaches, I know they are capable so that makes it more frustrating than anything)

Or, we just lost a starting safety!! A guy we needed to compete in the Big Sky. And we need to point things out when teams do this and officials are silent.

When you see 4 yards of total offense in the 3rd quarter, people should be called out, coaches and players. Plus Drake in the second half. The vaunted Drake that just got smoked 52-0 by South Dakota.

Conner probably graded out well on that play for getting a defender on the ground, that is how it works. A snapped leg, just a minor detail. He was dead set on cutting Arnell down, even when the legal angle was no longer there.

If we would of had 100 yards going into half with some missed opportunities on plays we could come back to that would be one thing and let's keep playing. But to have 4 yards, and our biggest positive is no false starts.........might want to go with plan B. We didn't have a plan B. We should of had at least 2 balls floated to our 6'5" receiver on 5'10" DB and I would of twice maxed protected or rolled the pocket with 2 verticle routes and a deep middle post.....take a deep shot!! I am wondering how far Studsrud can throw it? I think Joe and Bartles have cannons, 70 yard type.

Javon Butler........I don't know, the coaches are paid to figure out something that looks like an offense. And I was referring to NDSU's jet sweep run package.

Well, some one caught it. Saying we want to run the ball is great and it is fun to pound your chest and talk about, but let's not be so philosophically stubborn that we won't adjust or have an offensive package in place to jump start things. Why not go to a hurry up 2 minute offense with a big arm on the bench, it would have been better than sitting under center for 15 seconds waiting to see how loud the SU fan base could get. And after that long wait we run a very simple run play a junior high team could grasp in about 5 seconds. News flash, we are going to face teams that are more talented, to say we are going to run the ball until we have "the horses" to do it is foolish. I'm sure the Packers could run full back dive all game long against a high school team because they have the horses to do it. So for UND, we better find a way to generate offense and points cause I don't see any high school teams on the schedule. Look at SU, they like the power run game, but weren't married to it. They only had about 35 yards from their power stuff. The jet sweep misdirection was way more effective on the ground. And.........they knew they could pass, especially on one of our corners that I have no idea why he is in there. If SU would have ran power running plays all day they probably would have won 10-9.

Who is the SU player? They should own it and apologize or we'll have to assume that's the way they coach and play.

absolutely dirty. I took cut blocks for 4 years, glad I didn't take one from that angle........

Matchups..... I like our run defense against NDSU. Pass defense should be OK. The game will come down to Wentz making big plays or not. UND offense against NDSU defense, both have been up and down.....whoever wins this matchup wins. Rudolph was hired cause he gave fits to Bubba coaching against him. Let's see some magic Ruddy. 27-24 UND shocks 17,750 in the dome (all the NDSU fans and half the UND fans)

OK, so rated high fundamentally. Overall, if Drake wins the Pioneer League and hangs within 10 in their play-off game I will call them a good team. Until then, I have to go with pretty average.

I liked DeLuca's hit. QB's are suppose to slide before contact, not as contact is forthcoming and impossible to stop. I know we are not suppose to be nice or agreeable, so suck it. (I kid I kid)

Wentz should worry about not hurting himself......don't fight with a defensive lineman, WWE style, when more defenders are coming!! That's how he got hurt. It wasn't from an ankle tackle. For UND, a tackle is a tackle.

We will likely 'spy' on 3rd and mediums and other times near the red zone. They like to run Wentz when they need a 1st down or touchdown, no surprises there.

oh boy.....prepare to get stupid this week-
