UND and Bubba made this a defensive game by playing down to their opponent rather than playing aggressive and getting the game over with. This philosophy has followed Bubba every season, so it’s no longer just a theory at this point … NDSU scored 20, USD scored 14…….. they must play Bubba ball too……. and both those teams clearly suck…….. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When did NDSU score only 20? Or USD score only 14? and I wouldn’t say those two teams “suck”, as both will be playoffs. UND scores minimally and they do seem to “suck” this year, at least compared to those teams you mentioned. They played USD and NDSU close, but ultimately UND scoring only 13 points and 10 points in those games, respectively, cost UND those games.

Seems like our recruiting has been very good these past few years on both sides of the ball, and I'm really looking forward to some of the RS who have not played this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kab Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Was thinking here we go again’ a few fumbles in scoring position a field goal doink off the goal post then we make a few plays that put is on position to win ,defense kept us in it a few head scratcher reviews by refs, the fumble by Maag was one? but we win and on to next week, let’s give SDSU another loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post wheelsup Posted November 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 14, 2021 It was an entertaining and yet frustrating game to watch today. We missed most of the first half due to EDC VB and made it just in time to watch our kicker doink it off the upright to close out the half. Im not one to blame all of the missed kicks by a backup kicker on Kostich but a more accurate kicker would have won at least one more game for us this year and there are multiple times where we didnt attempt a FG where we probably should have. For me some of the head scratchers Tommy's inability to run.. early in the 3rd quarter he could have easily run for 10-20 yards and instead threw a ball into double coverage. Later that 3rd down run.. should have been an easy first down.. but that half slide came up short. He just doesnt look like a natural runner... if he was the offense would be a lot more dangerous. punts from the opponents 35 yd line.. Im sorry.. I dont get those. turnovers.. yowza.. takes two TD's off the board. Lack of targeting Maag and Zalvaney.. seems like two significant size mismatches. The o-line did not look great today.. probably had something to do with Waletzko being out of there.. Entertaining parts How about that defense.. I know the redbirds arent exactly good on offense.. but except for that one long play for a TD they could not move the ball. We have some very good young players and have been developing some depth. We have had significant defensive injuries this year and still are fielding a very competitive defense. I love watching #44 out there.. glad he is coming back. His family sits in our section and they are the most active cheerleaders in the stands. Tommy was throwing a nice ball out there today.. although the brockstar bailed him out on that catch into double coverage. The brockstar is looking good. Otis.. Otis.. Otis.. Man, his last big run when he dragged that poor little d-back about 15 yards.. He also had a big catch and run. Our RB room is deep but it sure is fun to watch Otis. Im looking forward to watching "the Gavel" (credit Jack) Gavin Ziebarth over the upcoming years as well. If we are going to keep going with the dual QB approach.. I want to see more of the Quincy package around the endzone. The apposing team clearly focuses on him running the ball (hello QB as a running threat) and it leads to wide open receivers that can adjust even on a significantly underthrown ball. This team has clearly not quit this year.. so hopefully all of the bozos that were predicting that they would fold and quit after the losses shuts up. They are clearly still playing with pride and energy. The biggest frustration I have with this team this year is unmet expectations. They are close.. I dont see a path to the playoffs even if they win next week and so this is a woulda coulda shoulda type year. Of their 5 losses 4 were very winnable 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
