siouxfan512 Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Should we talk about soccer while we're at it? Let's focus on football here. Yes, take the trash talk to a different thread. Does anyone know how the passing game has been progressing recently? Curious to know if Studrud is making an more progress, or if he is looking about the same. Really hoping our passing game develops this year, it would be nice to see us be able to test Wyomings young defense. Also think, as was shown on Saturday, that passing will be essential against the Bison. Quote
geaux_sioux Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 They'll probably have their best CB back for us so that alone will improve their pass defense big time. Quote
ericpnelson Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 When does the updated 2 deep get released. I'm curious to see what running backs are healthy. Also, do we know whose redshirt is pull and whose isn't? Quote
siouxfan512 Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Hahahaha a Bison fan just posted a 41 point spread on Wyonation for the UND/Wyoming game. Hilarious ... If that were to actually happen, we would be doomed for the season! Quote

Also, do we know whose redshirt is pull and whose isn't?Game notes were released this morning,. The two-deep looks to be the same as the one posted last week. It also says up to 9 true freshman would be making the trip, though it doesn't say which ones. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Of the 87 FBS games on tap this week this game was ranked #63. #1 was Ohio St. vs VA Tech. TCU vs MN was #6. Quote

If that were to actually happen, we would be doomed for the season!I would like to get a piece of that action. I'll take UND and the 41 points for $1000. 1 Quote
Let'sGoHawks! Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 I'm so excited to watch this game online! Oh wait. I'm so excited to listen to this on the radio, flashing back to the 90s! The outcome is a huge question, I have no idea what UND has on offense, but I am confident the D can limit these guys. Quote
jdub27 Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Yeah if it wasn't for WY it would be televised. WDAZ & UND were all over it, I saw it on the Internet. Hey Dan, here's the actual contract stating that Wyoming holds all TV/video rights since apparently you are having a hard time comprehending it. When you were "seeing stuff" all over the internet you must have missed it, an inadvertent oversight I'm sure. 1 Quote

Really hoping our passing game develops this year, it would be nice to see us be able to test Wyomings young defense. Also think, as was shown on Saturday, that passing will be essential against the Bison.Passing game will obviously depend on time to throw the ball and QB accuracy. However, I was told we are much better at WR this year and we'll need a balanced attack to compete against top teams. I already stated who I thought would lead the team in receiving yards this year, the kid from Arizona. Quote

UNDColorado Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 I recently read the spread was 14. That could have changed though. Quote

They need to run good routes, attack the ball so they win the 50/50 battles, look the ball in, secure it and get upfield. They didn't do that well last year. Too many people threw our QBs under the bus for the wrong reasons last year. I think if you give Studsrud time, have some semblance of a running game we can move the ball. If not Tom Brady won't have success. If you don't protect Studsrud it will be a long day and won't matter who the QB is. We should be good enough defensively that if we get decent oline play and improved play from the receivers, we should be able to compete. Quote
Sioux94 Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Funny NDSU is on every game. How's that work?This is a 110% trolling comment, this does not pertain to the game.....just an NDSU person trying to brag up NDSU and stir the pot. Users who make comments like this should get immediate ban for a week or two, especially when they are known trolls. It's crap like this that takes away from good discussion that is on topic. 3 Quote

I don't think UND will have great success running tthe ball. Take advantage of UW's youth in their secondary. Chuck the pigskin! The reason Bohl has so many freshman in the seconary Is pretty obvious watching them last year. Slowest safeties and dbacks I've ever seen in FBS. They didn't have a pick in at least the first half of the season. He probably feels it can't get worse. At least these youngsters have some speed. Quote
Nodak78 Posted September 2, 2015 Author Posted September 2, 2015 UND's strength is the running game. Wyoming's strength is their dine. This will be a good test to see if we can run the ball. If we can it will help the passing and qb play. if we can't it might be a long day. Unless the defense gets some TO's or special teams change the field position. Quote
UND-FB-FAN Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 good points. I don't think UND will have great success running tthe ball. Take advantage of UW's youth in their secondary. Chuck the pigskin! The reason Bohl has so many freshman in the seconary Is pretty obvious watching them last year. Slowest safeties and dbacks I've ever seen in FBS. They didn't have a pick in at least the first half of the season. He probably feels it can't get worse. At least these youngsters have some speed. There are three things that can happen when you throw the ball, and two of them are bad.UND needs to be more balanced this season and take advantage of suspect secondaries, perhaps like Wyoming's, but abandoning the running game would be a HUGE mistake. UND can't afford mistakes (interceptions and QB sack-fumbles) with how the defense is; that is, field-position with a tough defense is crucial. Play Bubba ball - run the ball on offense, play the field position game, and play stifling defense that hopefully produces turnovers. The play-action game will have to be sprinkled in there as well for balance. Quote
homer Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Great write up by the Sioux Football guys with help from Chad Smith of WyoNation.com. Good read. Looking forward to Saturday.http://siouxfb.areavoices.com/2015/09/02/q-a-with-wyonation/ Quote

jimdahl Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Our mods are notoriously slow on the draw - In my opinion, a few Bison trollers have signifcantly reduced my experience on what should be a Sioux forum. It honestly didn't strike me as particularly bad when I first saw it; whether the game is on TV or not seems an on-topic discussion. In pondering it a bit more, you're right that point of it was probably just to aggravate so it is just trolling. We'll try to keep a closer eye on that.The football forum is especially tough for us, because so many posters in this forum think we should just ban anyone who isn't a UND fan, which hasn't ever been our philosophy. But, anyone who is solely here to try to aggravate other posters shouldn't be here. Quote
North Dakota Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 I think this is going to be close defensive battle. Both Bubba and Bohl like to play conservative on offense and hard nosed defense. I see both teams trying to run the ball and both teams stuffing the run. I think it'll come down to whichever offense can throw the ball and unfortunately I don't think our passing game is there yet. I'll say 24-14 Wyo. Quote
