UND @ NDSU Gameday Thread


Recommended Posts

Just have to face the facts that we are not in the same league as NDSU, yet. Defensively we are getting much closer, still need to work on the pass defense. Special teams are spotty but not terrible. The offense is pathetic. Really need to beef up the oline and find a decent QB along with some RB's and WR's. I still think we can compete in the BSC at least with all but the very top teams.

Play action only works when you've established the run...far from that yet

Yep, in order to hold a defense they must respect it. We've given no reason to respect anything.

NDSU is vastly more talented but not one first down? Missed tackles all over. Poor kick coverage. Last time I checked UND was FCS not D2.

this isn't because of an oc.  it is simply men against boys and UND still has a lot of growing up to do.  this wasn't unexpected.

Maybe it is men against boys, but that is where and OC is supposed to change the game plan to capitalize. Their O was supposed to be this good, Their D was not. Get ready to see more of this, because if we can't make adjustments against the Bison, just imagine MT.

USD beating Drake 31-0 half. Ugh. We have a ways to go to be a good team.

that's the same as we were. We are on the same level as usd. That doesn't say much but this is not the end of the world. Not much we can do when the offense can move down the field. We also can't defend the pass . Lots of work to do but not hat far behind. Keep down this path and we will be there

It appears that we just have a bunch of fat guys on our offensive line, as you would think when you know what you are going to do, you should have a few plays go your way.  On defense, I thought I was watching the Mussman era, playing 10 yards off of receivers with no aggressiveness to try for turnovers. Way too much respect for the Bison. I would much rather get beat being aggressive, so let's at least see if we can win the second half and be competitive when we play to win.

It also works when a team has shown they are constantly trying to establish the run, even if they dont. Everytime you see two in the backfield you know UND is gonna run it.

That's correct. This should not be a surprise.

Zero first downs and the other team starting drives inside our 35 on a consistent basis doesn't seem like a winning formula.

This experience in Fargo for me has been great even with losing by 21. No reason this shouldn't be an every year thing. Bison fans have been telling me this day has been busier than usual.

Busier than usual? It's just another game.

And with a lot of work, the Jaguars could be the Patriots.  Things can change quickly, but UND has a lot of catching up to do.

This is downright embarrassing.    We have a long, long ways to go to even be competitive.   Bubba had better get going because I sure don't want this sheet to keep on.
