Yards in the ground will be tough to come by. Get the ball to playmakers and let them make plays. Tommy is going to have to make the plays he has made all year.

This needs to be a clean game on the offensive side of the ball Defense needs to take their shots when they can: No dropped interceptions, recover any loose balls, get to the QB. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sioux24/7 Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Our offense has been humming most of the year but this is going to be a hell of a challenge. Janke twins are going to be a problem. Gotta make sure to finish our tackles on Davis. Kids strong as hell and keeps on churning his legs. Going to be interesting if Kraft plays. I’m guessing he doesn’t but who knows. Can’t wait, let’s pack the Al. Get that same atmosphere as last year against NDSU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND Football Fan Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 This game will be very interesting: Spring Season we looked as though we were to be run out of the place down 14-0 and we run a fake punt got a first and scored and momentum changed we won the game. 2021 a game I thought we would lose by 2 scores because at SDSU and they needed win for seeding, we were driving for the winning score but with lack of time forced costly pick ended the game. This is a winnable game. As said before offensively we need to continue to what we do. And keep their offense off the field, if we can control the clock we can wear on their front 7. Defense will probably need to bend and not break and take chances with blitzes as they get inside the 40. This offense will be the best since SIU, hopefully crowd brings noise so we can generate a pass rush with 4. Defensive success will be dependent on the offense, if behind early SDSU can dictate tempo, if we have lead it may limit what they want and thus we can put guys in way better position to make plays. Special teams need to win this. That’s is a big reason why we won against Youngstown and SDSU in the Spring Season. If we are a playoff or top 8 seed contender we should win, it’s difficult for a great team to win back to back tough road games against quality opponents.

Look back to their last visit here - that worked. Our QB is more seasoned, our running game is solid, special teams comes up with something big.

Wilbur Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Danny is going to earn his money this week. I don't think we will be able to run the ball, so we need to be creative in getting guys the ball in space and effectively sprinkle in the run game to keep them honest.

Yes, but they won't be the only ones. SIU is big fans of UND as well. Since they don't play SDSU this year, their game in Carbondale against NDSU could be for at least a share of the Valley title. If SDSU loses, SIU could win it outright if they win out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll add a copyright for you next time. I think this is also a game where you get Belquist, Wilson, Smith, Maag out in space and let them make plays. This could also be a good game for Jack Wright to break out. However, this all comes down to Tommy. If he can put this a stat line of around 70% completion or higher, 300+ yards passing, 3+ TDs, makes a few plays with his legs, and zero picks... UND wins. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I do agree with a previous poster that yesterday wasn't the ac's last lose on the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with this - gonna need some bigs plays on O - don't see us grinding out 7 minute drives with 4 yard passes against them. Their running game worries me; that RB is a load, not to mention the Jankes. Forcing a TO or two is going to be a must. Their QB didn't look as dynamic as I remember him pre-injuries.

forksandspoons Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I think UND can’t be discouraged if the run game doesn’t get going right away. The passing game will need to be clicking, but I think they need to feed Hoos. He’s one of the best backs in the league and I think can take a lot of pressure off of the passing game.
