Old School Guy Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Players do whats emphasized in practice. I suspect after the Montana game...deep pass coverage was emphasized. Now, we need to focus on positioning and getting take aways. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bison06 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 So they're well coached enough to not have let downs against bad teams, but not talented enough to beat good teams. Sounds like they're way better than a seeded PSU that beat 2 fbs teams who are both better than any win sdsu has. North Texas wouldn't beat valley city state. Hardly a better win than anything SDSU has.The loss to Northern Colorado? How does that fit into your equation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old School Guy Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 I think that's right, the staff felt better with our outside backers on the field compared to bringing in another safety or corner.Ratelle is a monster, but on too many occassions we let other teams isolate our linebackers in coverage. Some plays we got lucky, some plays we didnt. We shouldnt put our inside or outside linebackers in that position, without a blitz call to back them up.

How does that fit into your equation? northern Colorado was the same as south Dakota this year, yet ndsu got a 3 seed.....Your north Texas slam is ridiculous, but you know that. PSU slaughtered them anyway though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bison06 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 (edited) You sure disappeared for a long time when UND started winning games. Troll on.I've never once trolled on this board. Try again.My posting theme in this thread revolves around the original poster saying UND's win over PSU trumps WIU's win over SDSU. I disagreed. If that sort of discussion is trolling than you need thicker skin my friend. Edited November 22, 2015 by Bison06 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bison06 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 It's just a matter of opinion, I believe SDSU is better than PSU. We can go round and round all day, but this is why having a playoff is fun. It'll all play itself out.I predict that PSU loses to UNI in their first playoff game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means you consider them playoff-caliber, and skews your argument that PSU lost to weaker teams. Stick with using UNC as your example. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siouxfan512 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 This non selection will sting for a long while. It should be a wakeup call to leadership in the Big Sky; somewhere in all this were political failings. No. We need to win more game period.this has nothing to do with big Sky leadership. UND dropped two games that they should have won. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playoff caliber sure, but not in the field of 24 so they are a non-playoff team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 While I'm not sure this has anything to do with BSC leadership, you can easily conclude from the seedings and number of teams in the playoff field that the BSC did not have the respect of the committee. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siouxphan27 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 So a loss to the best team in the country at the time is worse than two losses, one to a team that only beat 1 D1 team this year and the other to a very average team? No, just stop. I'm fairly confident that 8 is greater than 7. So at your command, yes, I will stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the green team Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 This omission today hurts. But the statement that the Big Sky didn't have the respect of the committee. And if you would look at the Big Sky's track record in recent years- I've come away with the opinion that the league has been extremely soft in the FCS Playoffs. The Eastern Washington's and Montana State's like to thump their chests about how big and bad offensively they are- for the points they put up...but they get exposed at playoff time- which is what has been the refreshing thing about Bubba and his staff's philosophy in building this program. Today however- just doesn't feel very good. Day by day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
