Big Green Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 15 hours ago, AJS said: Here's what I got. There were a few teams that really were hit hard by graduation / portal (ISU-B, Youngstown, UNI). Some that weren't. 4 - Win or season over - Idaho St at home, San Diego at home, Murray St. at home, at ISU-B 4 - Tossup games - UNI at home, at Youngstown, USD at home, at Illinois State 1 - Not Likely - Montana at Home 3 - No past indicators of Victory games - Iowa St on the Road, NDSU on the Road, Jacks at Home Disagree with this one. UND under Bubba is different at home. See Spring of 2021 vs the Jacks, 2023 vs NDSU and the toss up game vs NDSU in Fall on 2021. As will as many others over the years. Only 2 game with no chance of victory are at NDSU and at Iowa St. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playcalling (fewer trickerations) Underperforming against weak teams QB ... I said it; you don't replace an experienced starter easily.

Overall his record against good teams at home is pretty good. Road record regardless of quality of opponent is poor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to at least one....Jerry was ready to take over the team last year. Can you imagine what he'll do with a whole year under his belt. Whether it's Trey or Jerry, there will be some growing pains with a new starter and I'd expect more interceptions than Tommy had. However stronger arm and hopefully some more deep balls along with a QB that can potentially scramble for positive yards more often Im hoping more than offsets those initial growing pains. It will certainly be interesting to watch though how it all plays out after having the same starter for four years. Will we be missing Tommy.....or feel like Yes....now we are more explosive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said it; you don't replace an experienced starter easily. Expect more picks against. Very much agree on the QB part. I have a feeling we will like the new QB but as you put it dislike some decisions. Not sure there was THAT much trickeration last season. No comment on the D?

Don’t have to tell me twice. I’m not expecting good things in 2024. Already sort of pissed I renewed my season tickets, but figured after having them for decades, I better continue with it. Figured I’d type something sort of positive, since I’m routinely hated on here for being so pessimistic (i.e., realistic). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone hates you, many agree with your assessments regarding the game & team. For me it's your attacking fans, over and over and over.... makes me want to watch soccer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
