nosidel Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 That Wentz kid ain't bad. Not bad indeed! Carson pretty much has everything that you'd want in a QB; prototypical size, excellent quickness and mobility, great pocket presence, a rocket arm, and he's a 4.0 student. If he can read NFL defenses we just might be seeing him on Sundays in a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ball sails a bit on him sometimes. No doubt he's got a ways to go ... most college QBs do in their first year as a starter. But there' a whole lot there for an NFLQB coach to work with.

nosidel Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 "one drive" is crazy. Also, those are excellent numbers for a QB on a team that runs a ball-control offence like NDSU's. 13 games 150.7 rat 189-300-9 ints 63.0 pct 2522 yds 21 tds 194.0 yds/game Nothing says NFL like those numbers.

If the kid was in a pass friendly offense his numbers would be double what they are now. And the Bison receivers drop a lot of catchable balls. He is already getting looked at. It's his first year as a starter. He has the size and arm and smarts to possibly move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dagger Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 I see the NDSU had 18,100 in attendance for their game in Fargo. Seems like they routinely have around 19,00 for their games, it is surprising they didn't have a sellout for their playoff game. I know they can put about 19,000 in the dome. I suppose that it is the same thing that has happened in Grand Forks over the years when every ticket has to be purchased for playoffs and free tickets from your boss at work aren't there, not as many tickets are sold. Nonetheless it is still a little surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bincitysioux Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Attendance almost always dips at playoff time. I'm surprised it wasn't more than it was. Too only have it go down by 5% is pretty impressive. I bet it was far worse at other venues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nosidel Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 There were no tickets available for sale to the general public. At least not on gobison.com.

Sampson Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Wentz is definitely a prospect for an nfl. He has a long ways to go, but he has everything needed to be an nfl qb. The biggest thing is his decision making will need to improve, his accuracy will improve over time. Right now his game accuracy isn't mirroring his practice. He also has imho one of the worst wr units in fcs. Props to sdsu. They had control and should have won the game. Ndsu stepped up and made plays when they neede too. Very similar to GSU couple years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are giving a whole bunch of money to the NCAA so apparently they do some interesting accounting. Game yesterday was as full as I've seen the dome. And it actually stayed full which was a little surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very similar to GSU couple years ago. SDSU certainly could have won this game. But I don't know if makes any sense to say that a team that gave up 416 yards of offense to their 275, and couldn't come up with a defensive stop when they needed it, "should" have won the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried to explain that there were more than that there but UND under reports to keep the difference. They weren't buying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nosidel Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 18K in a stadium that seats 19K seems a little easier to explain than 5K in a stadium that seats 13K.
