Popular Post fightingsioux4life Posted September 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 3, 2022 FBS depth advantage caught up with us in the 4th (like it usually does in these games), but this was way better than our games vs. Washington, Utah, Utah State and San Jose State. Now we have to focus on the home opener next week. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope Frost drills that in their heads. Can’t sleep on any team. For UND’s sake I hope they do over look the lesser FCS opponent. I feel UND can stick with them until the second half. That seems to be when the FBS team depth takes over the game. My prediction was pretty spot on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get them on the ropes. If that is not possible, keep it close for as long as you can. The loater in the game it stays a 1 score game, the btter. Get the FB?S team thinking in the back of their mind that there might be a chance they lose this game. GEt thewm tight late and force a mistake and eke out a win.

108498 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 UND lost the game, but I couldn't be prouder of the team. They played a great game as long as they could . They ran out of gas in the fourth, but they represented the state well. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post iramurphy Posted September 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2022 Tough loss. The coaches had the guys well prepared and they played hard and competed against a Nebraska team that had a huge offensive and a big defensive line, and some very quick hard running backs on offense and some good speed defensively especially their linebackers and secondary. A couple of big mistakes put us in a hole in the third quarter and we couldn’t get back in it in the 4th quarter. If we clean up a couple of stupid penalties, get our punting squared away, stay healthy, and improve each week we can be pretty good. Great atmosphere for our guys who didn’t seem in awe. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildfan Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Kinda glad Frost wanted to rotate 5 RBs instead of ride the horse getting all the yardage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
108498 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 The last two times Wyoming has played Nebraska they have lost by scores of about 50-0 and 56-13. UND held their own. Yes a lost, but they shouldn't lower their heads. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I has happened to our fan base. I’m not sure anyone can say Nebraska isn’t good enough to win the MVFC. SDSU played Iowa tough but couldn’t move the ball. Iowa needs to get a lot better if they are going to contend for a conference championship. We haven’t seen the Bison yet but I assume they are the team to beat. Nebraska has some pieces of the proverbial puzzle. They have a big offensive line and some very talented RB’s. If their QB settles in and mixes in his ability to run they can be decent. Having said that I don’t believe fans are proud of any loss. I believe they are proud of the effort. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxweet Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 This isn't a moral victory thing, Nebraska is a mediocre team at best and UND had a golden chance which it couldn't take advantage of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nebraska offense looked heck of alot better. Iowa has the much better Defense it appears. Small sample size. But SDSU wasn't doing anything impressive either.

Wildfan Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 The hard part too is it is a 21 PT lose. Maybe only 14 if we punt on 4th and long but I think I rather see us take the last chance we may have to do something. We failed to convert. Nebraska was fine just running clock but wasn't much field to use to run the clock with the field position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A burner needs to emerge somewhere, somehow. how about instead of "guiding" him to the sidelines...put him in the slot and drag him across the middle from left to right and see if people can move ther feet to keep up with him and then tommy two gloves can hit him in stride and lift off!!!!

Anyone who has ever played sports understands that the coaches job is to prepare the players and put them in a position to succeed. The players need to execute. Kostich can’t kick, block, tackle, punt etc. The only players I played with, coached or have been involved with that blamed the coaches tended to be losers. Does your lady friend have any eligibility left? As far as comments about what others felt were positive points, those are factors that when breaking down a game are factors. Time of possession (controlling the ball) against a team with the weapons Nebraska has means those weapons are on the bench. It’s an indication that there were positives to take away from a loss like this. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannot worry about the few who believe it's horrible to find good things in a W because that means you endorse a losing attitude. NO ONE here wants a loss, but a few think you need to bi7ch about it or you're not a true fan. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
