I incorrectly assumed the OC would be credited for calling great plays as much as he is derided for being so predictable. The reason Rudolph gets so much crap is that the playcalling is more often than not predictable. Yes, he has some great moments and there are times where everything he calls seems to work, but there are many, many times that the calls are run, run, pass with a 3 and out, rinse and repeat. Quote
nodakvindy Posted September 9, 2017 Posted September 9, 2017 I hope they don't let up in the second half. Hang 50 on these guys and make a statement. Quote
cowboys5xsbs Posted September 9, 2017 Posted September 9, 2017 UND comes back strong and gets the stand. Great gritt right there responding like that. Quote
Feff Posted September 9, 2017 Posted September 9, 2017 Poor decision by Santiago on the punt and UND is stuck back at the 2. Quote
cowboys5xsbs Posted September 9, 2017 Posted September 9, 2017 MANITOBA MOOSE!!!!!!!!!! what a run Quote
Feff Posted September 9, 2017 Posted September 9, 2017 Love seeing a dive hit the hole the defense slants away from! Quote

UNDMOORHEAD Posted September 9, 2017 Posted September 9, 2017 I know that goes down as an INT in the stat book, but I like the idea given the situation. 2 Quote

Outside of trying to establish the run against Utah, what has been wrong with the calls this season? I agree they should have passed more against Utah but we have seen fantastic playcalling today. I just think putting up 24 points should deserve kudos from more than two people. It's obvious against FCS teams, UND has a much better balance and uses the wide amount of talent. Edit: Studruds didn't have the time last week that he does today. It's tough to pass consistently if your QB is always under pressure. 1 Quote
Oxbow6 Posted September 9, 2017 Posted September 9, 2017 317 total yards offensively for UND in first half. That's solid. 1 1 Quote
BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted September 9, 2017 Posted September 9, 2017 Great effort, same medicine for 2nd half. Pay these boys back for last time 1 Quote

He did try and establish the run early, can't blame Rudy for trying that out of the gate....as that is our identity. But then he opened it up when the running wasn't working that well, nice job of adjusting. The passing opened up the run. I like that they put Brady in on the second drive and started establishing him. I hope we start games with Brady in there right away as Santiago then is a great change of pace. Quote
darell1976 Posted September 9, 2017 Posted September 9, 2017 Sitting here in the Alerus, little hazy from the fireworks. I love the Hawkerchiefs. Lights are nice, and the sound system is good. Loved the intro!! As for the game, too bad for the holding call towards the end it ended maybe a long field goal chance. Defense is playing great especially that turnover. And this team scored over 40 on an FBS team? Here's hoping for 30 more minutes of shutting down their offense. 1 Quote

That series where they run, run, pass helps set up future series where they pass on first down, or play action pass on second down, or run a jet sweep, etc. UND wants to play conservative football on offense and depend on the defense to win. That is Bubba's design. Conservative football means running a lot. And it especially works well when you have quality running backs like UND has. Quote
