Not sure what to make of this game now. I was thinking a win by two possessions (9-16 points). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nodak78 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 I believe we get 2 picks this game. Sack city should have a good day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forksandspoons Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 I think YSU is a better team than a lot of people think. The Hawks will need to play a great game to win. Can’t wait for Saturday! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerebral quarterback play. Short-yardage offensive package. RB skill sets. LT play. Weakness? Center to QB exchanges Lack of speed receiver Untimely penalties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that true? Do they know what they're talking about? Maybe we just a slow team?? They were also praising Smith's and Hoosman's speed, too.

Can’t wait for Saturday! Youngstown will be full of good athletes, play physical football and be a tough place to play. They probably should have beat us last year at our place. It was as flat of a game as we have played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think at his best he's pretty fast and reports are his health is good right now. With his size he's probably moving faster than appears. Smith faster than Hoosman.

Depends how we use him. Running between the tackles he doesn't seem to have the vision or escapability as Hoosman. If you can get him into space, then watch out. I loved the little misdirection play with the pitch to him this last week. If you can find a way to use that again with a different variation I'd be all for it. Also love Smith's pass catching abilities. Danny just needs to stay creative, can't say enough how much more fun this offense is than Rudy's offense was. Its not always perfect, but it is sooo much more fun. I just don't know what to think about this game. I was think we got this .... Then I was thinking if this was at home we should dominate, but we just need to prove it on the road. After listening to the 360 guys it sounds like we are playing NFL O and D lines, but looking at the stats Youngstown doesn't have a ton going for them other than their RB; their QBs don't appear to do much. Though they did keep their game against the Bison within reach. Soooo I just don't know. I still think the good guys get this and I'd like to see the offense continue clicking. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 I have a feeling this will grind out to a last possession game. The good news is this team has confidence in itself in that scenario. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sioux94 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Haven't listened to the 360 podcast yet but YSU didn't have much offense last year and it was a very close game at home. I think our offense is better than last year, but defense probably not as good. I think it's a pretty good matchup for us but I'm not counting my chickens just yet. Need to show up and play with a sense of purpose on Saturday. Hoping our defense gets a few turnovers to help us out, sounds like they are prone to throwing INT's. Definitely won't be surprised if this game is still in reach for either team well into the 4th quarter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it was Freund that said that Maag is the fastest so I assume he knows what he’s talking about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NDSU played an extremely sloppy game, they could've had 3 interceptions and just didn't hold on to the ball. Their offense kept committing penalties too, with holdings and false starts. That'll be an emphasis for our guys up front too, having a 3 yard loss on isn't as bad as getting set back 10 yards with a penalty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the exact same thing. It reminds me going into the Northern Iowa game as well, I felt good about UND's chances until I listened to the 360 podcast. Both times, after listening I felt like there was no way UND had a chance. Sounds to me like Youngstown will be the best team in every facet that UND has faced so far. Outside of their passing offense. Hoping like UNI, UND can pull off the win against a borderline flawless opponent. Some more thoughts (non-360 related). Good: Like where UND's offense is right now. Multi-faceted. I feel good about the unit in general. Youngstown is a run first offense. Feel much better going up against that then a pass happy offense. Bad: This is a game that a Bubba coached team has routinely lost. This is the chance for UND to completely redeem themselves from the SIU debacle. Like against SIU, this is another opportunity game. Win and you're right in the mix of all FCS discussions. Both locally and nationally. UND's program could really use this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
