Feff Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 I honestly don't mind what the score is right now. Would I prefer to have held them to 0 points? Sure, but WIU adjusted, went heavier on their protection and made some good pass plays downfield. We adjusted after the muffed punt by bringing more pressure. As for not scoring more, I don't mind. Our offense isn't flashy. We pop the occasional big run, Schuster has hit some nice deep balls today, but we aren't a quick-hitting team like SDSU. Grind the ball, keep converting third down, and by the 4th quarter our offensive line should have fully imposed their will and we get the win. 1 Quote
Siouxperfan7 Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Welcome to road games in the Valley. We are playing good, not great. Keep grinding it and get the run game going. Don’t turn the all over and control the time of possession. Then we will be just fine. 1 Quote

We will learn about our teams focus this weekend. A true top tier team can go in there and grind out a dominant win. Did we not just grind out a dominant half where UND doubled WIU in yards, first downs, and TOP? Seems we met your expectations for a top tier team from earlier in the week. 1 Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 3rd quarter is UNDs quarter. Lets make it happen once again. Get pressure. Get Luke touches Quote
FSSD Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Half Time Stats: Rushing Yards 87-22 Passing Yards 211-123 TOP 20:45 to 9:15 3rd Down 6-7/1-5 Penalties 0 to 6/40 Turnovers 2 to 0 UND is playing a great game need to clean up the turnovers.. Keep running the ball.. they have to be wearing down.. Keep Otis on the bench.. bring in Mitchell. Quote
Siouxperfan7 Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 First half wasn’t all bad. Also no penalties for UND. Quote
FSSD Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Other score USD 14 to MSU 7 - MSU with 100 yard kick return. Quote

Let’s hope we wipe our ass with them in the second half and get Quincy some valuable minutes. 2 Quote

Like I said, the end result doesn’t tell the whole story, we got lucky through a very unlikely sequence. They were on the verge of blowing our doors off and we would have had to start throwing the ball downfield to try and keep pace. That’s not a recipe for success with our team. We had a lights out second half in that game no doubt but I maintain that we narrowly avoided disaster in the first half. Quote
Sioux90 Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Does that Grubhub commercial make anyone else uncomfortable? Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Hopefully we dominate the second half today. Hard pressed to believe we will dominate every second half this year. Would have been nice to have put this game away by now - good teams do Quote

Exactly, this is how you win on the road.. keep grinding it out run the clock.. keep the ball away from the home team. Quote
iramurphy Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 No excuse for turnovers. I wouldn’t put a lot of stock in comparative scores. Otherwise one might write off the Bison. We are a good team but need to get better each week. I think we learned in the Big Sky that on any given weekend..... same goes for this league. We are going to have to figure out how to eliminate those long pass plays especially when we are out of position. Be patient. I wouldn’t worry about rankings or comparisons except for how to deal with WIU. Every team we have played has been able to make big plays and score. These teams aren’t Morningside. We need to get a stop first series second half, eliminate mistakes and we should be ok. Go Hawks and thanks for the updates. 2 Quote

NC Sioux Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 If I was dean of the WIU broadcast school I might shut this stream down for fear that the accreditation board is watching. Midco, Heinert and shut your mouth Kasowski are truly excellent. The bison broadcasters are quite lame. 2 Quote
FSSD Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 SIU and UNI are thumping it right now... still 13-0 but SIU has been moving the ball. Quote

He’s an absolute pro. 1 2 Quote
