Would love to see McKinney find a seam this week and show that high end speed. A ST touchdown, would lean this game heavy in UND's favor. With both Izzy Adeoti and John Santiago out, UND offense loses a lot of speed this week. Important that UND is really, and I mean really, physical this week with the o-line and Oliveira and Johannesson. Would love to see a big play over the top with Wanzek, Maag, McKinney, or even Cloyd on a play-action shot. Have to keep up the aggressiveness we saw from the team against Montana. #4 team coming to the Alerus Center. Huge game, huge opportunity. UND needs to be aggressive and take this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously Santiago could. I remember every time Dressler fielded a punt.....you half expected him to take it to the house.....you never wanted to take your bathroom break while the other team was punting....you might miss something. Even though Wanzek fumbled, I'm probably ok having him back their against Weber verses putting Greibel in for his first time ever fielding punts in a college game. I really hope our special teams hit the bottom last week. I know we won't be nailing 47 yard FG's against Weber...but all other facets need to solid against Weber....it's going to be a tight game. Need to be aggressive on special teams. It’s equally as important as offense and defense but oftentimes gets overlooked. Weber State is very solid on special teams and it could be the difference in the game. Weber’s head coach Jay Hill is former special teams coordinator at University of Utah. Huge week for Kostich and his unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the first true litmus year for that unit and if they are capable of just not completely blowing a game ala the Richmond game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIOUXFAN97 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 has cloyd passed luke as our #1 te?...haven't seen much of luke in the last couple of weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O Town Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Luke is #1 still and plays majority on the downs. Not sure I understand why they don't use Luke more on 3rd down sets. Hasn't dropped a pass this year. First few games Luke got a number of throws but has seemed to dry up these last few games. They still do use a lot of 2 TE sets. The last couple blow outs Luke had not played the 2nd halfs as they are trying to get the 3 and 4 guys on the field for experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I recall the first game of the year the TE's had 4 receptions and a TD by halftime. You're right though, the last couple of games there haven't been many passes because we were up and the OL and the RB's were rolling, so I guess that is ok. Also I'm not sure if we've run a screen pass since that first game either, probably did a couple times I just can't remember. Weber has a stout defense, likely need to break open the playbook a bit more this Saturday. I was totally ok with running the ball down their throats in the second half the last three games though.

We should pass to our TE more in general. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta get that up to at least 95-0 if they want to make the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustin Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 48 minutes ago, UNDBIZ said: So my take on the game: Offense - advantage UND Defense - draw Special Teams - advantage WSU Keys to the game for a UND victory: Score when given your chances on offense. Rely on your defense to get the ball back to the offense. Obviously, well executed special teams would be ideal, but a flub is probably ok, so long as it is not a scoring play for them.

"It gets very loud. Their fans are crazy, they were yelling at us all last time," he said. "So I expect the same thing ... they’re ranked so there will probably be lots of people there to watch them." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
