BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted March 22, 2021 Author Posted March 22, 2021 This game was rigged. We won by a landslide. Referees were absentee. Counter used manipulated machines to tally the score. Cheated and lied. Rioters were welcome on this board. Our fans had to wait in long lines. We mailed in our plays, some complaining too late. We will have a recount in April. Purple 1 Quote

Can’t see USD beating them and not sure the UNI offense can get to double digits they are so bad. How can UNI be so bad offensively? Quote

I suspect teams will stack the box and sell out on the run in the future but if you leave Watson one on one, it could be dangerous. Not sure UND OL was quite as dominant. Quite a few tfl’s or 0-1 yard gains. I am not sure Leupke was stopped for less than 3 yards hardly at all that game. And yes, Schuster needs to pull it down and run once in a while. Luepke is exactly what I was hoping for with Johannesson. No idea why UND didn't sell out to stop him. Should have made Zeb win the game. UND OL was very good, 1 TFL and no sacks. No idea why we didn't use Otis much in 2nd qtr. Quote

They seemed to find a rhythm that wasn’t there previously and I think they are gonna be dangerous moving forward. I see them rattling off some wins 3-0 or 2-1 the next few weeks is what I expect. You could see that the rivalry sparked them. Haven’t seen that typical fire from them until they played us this year. 2 Quote

Every team comes together at different times and it looked like to me Saturday could be a turning point. Also, I’ve been watching these teams all play each other for a long time, I don’t see any reason why Luepke wouldn’t be effective against the upcoming schedule. Might be hard to repeat this weekends performance, but he isn’t some sort of gimmick that only works against UND’s defense. He should be their feature back going forward and maybe into the fall. The OL fed on that power back mentality. Didn’t see that same edge when the 160lb backs were getting tossed around on first contact Quote

Coulda had that with JJ if they didn’t stupidly make him bulk up way too big and lose his athleticism. At 235 he would have been way better. 3 Quote

I got some insider info shortly before game. It was huge game for them so don't buy all the BS about lack of rivalry. Coaches told players needed to stop Otis and block our blitzers. If we get lead in 2nd qtr, we win going away. Obviously we struck out on the if. It was there for the taking. Quote

The big difference in the run game was getting the mojo early on a fantastic call and Leupke was the hammer as the game wore on. UND never really adjusted. Quote

I mean, of course they changed it, they change it every game to suit the team they’re playing. Clearly the offensive staff for NDSU saw a weak point and successfully exploited it. This week they’ll do the same thing, but that weak point might be different than it was this week. For the record, I’ve always held firm, even through 03-15 when the schools weren’t playing that UND is NDSUs biggest rival. I’ll I’ve said is I doubt the players see it that way since they’ve never played in the game or when they have UND wasn’t as competitive as they historically have been. Quote

Midwestern Hawk Posted March 22, 2021 Posted March 22, 2021 Leupke vs Weah rushing stats from game Leupke: 28 rushes for 190 yards = 6.8 ypc W/O long run 27 rushes for 135 yards = 5.0 ypc Weah 13 rushes for 129 yards = 9.92 ypc W/O long run 12 rushes for 55 yards = 4.6 ypc Quote

I think we were NOT ready for the physicality of Leupke and am surprised we didn't seem to adjust to offset that. I would have made ZEB beat us. Quote
