That's my take. I didn't look at the line-up formations for that play (and even if I had, it wouldn't mean anything to me as non-player / fan only), so maybe there would be some tell-tale sign(s) either way if someone with a knowing mind did look at it. Agreed, I though the same thing late in the game, and I think it was like 4th and 14 or something. It would have been a stretch, but I wondered the same at that point.

Now that you reminded me of the distance to the line to gain, it seems more obvious why they didn't go through with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even my dad, a long-ago UND alum, who taught me to be a Sioux fan from birth, barely even mentions football, and is seemingly just as likely to bring up NDSU. We need some statement wins, and one of them will need to be against the Bison. So as it turns out the die-hard Bison fan was at this game with his brother (his brother went to undergrad at SDSU and grad school at UND), and he was definitely impressed with Schuster's first drive carving up the Jacks D. Made him nervous for the game in Fargo. But he's kind of a nervous Nelly and is always paranoid the Bison are going to lose but they never do, so that has to be taken with a grain of salt. Also, unbeknownst to me, my dad was at the game - his first in quite some time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
