tnt Posted September 30, 2023 Posted September 30, 2023 2 of the 3, big game opportunities have been big disappointments. One left against NDSU, and it will be even a bigger disappointment if they fail in that one, with South Dakota beating them in the Dome. 1 Quote

Most teams would try to run the ball and establish the run game to get our oline into some sort of rhythm. If we only gain 2 next play it’s a manageable 3rd and 3. Having said that, we were dominated on both sides of the LOS and couldn’t tackle a cheerleader. Schuster was way too slow with his reads. Can’t get away with that when your o line isn’t playing well. I realize SDSU had pulled most of their starters but Feeney made quick reads and got the ball to receivers on the break. They should have had Feeney in after our first series of the second half. Embarrassing showing today. Tommy used to sling the ball on time, quick reads, and now lately, especially in big games it looks like he needs 'Hooked on Phonics'. I agree that Feeney is passing the Eye Test, looks ready. I can't watch football in a 20-yard box anymore with Tommy and a 2-yard box with what was suppose to be Wildcat with Q. 2 Quote
gundy1124 Posted October 1, 2023 Posted October 1, 2023 Also........if we can't find the dudes on the D-Line to run a 3-4 then move on. 4 Quote

Shawn-O Posted October 1, 2023 Posted October 1, 2023 Jacks announcers yukked it up about DeBoer interviewing for the gig. Talk about opening a wound ouch… 2 Quote
Oxbow6 Posted October 1, 2023 Posted October 1, 2023 What's this team's identity? ST and D are FCS average at best. O has no identity....zero. SDSU is "we are going to line up and smash you with the run and you are not going to run on us". 3 Quote

TBR Posted October 1, 2023 Posted October 1, 2023 I've waited patiently for this program to build into a contender over the last ten years. There have been glimmers of hope along the way. I bought into the hype that this was going to be the year things all came together, the culmination of the gradual buildup. The opposite has turned out to be the case. The team has regressed and the most important player, the QB, has been front and center in that regression. This team is mired in permanent mediocrity and inconsistency under the current regime. 2 Quote

wheelsup Posted October 1, 2023 Posted October 1, 2023 There were many things that bother me today.. Im really sick to my stomach over the team crapping the bed in another big game. It was really a terrible game and not even close. I even talked myself into thinking they could come back in the 2nd half.. the worsts.. Complete inability to stop the run.. I don’t get it. We have been in the MVC now for a few years and we still don’t seem to have adapted/recruited different on the d-line from the big sky. Its terrible. If we play like this, NDSU will drop the plow on us again in 2 weeks. I don’t get the beginning of the game. How could we not have been better prepared. After shitting the bed on defense, How could Danny not have dreamed up a better offensive series for the first series. Really.. his best idea was that stupid play with Q on down 2? I don’t think that play works in FM athletics.. Our scoring sequence in the 2nd quarter was almost wrecked by somehow trying to turn Isaiah Smith into a power runner.. cmon man! I don’t get the offensive series at the start of the 3rd quarter. Opportunity to get back into the game. Offense cant step up. Where is our vaunted offensive line. Where is the pride and tiredness of being kicked around Im ready to try a new QB.. I think Feeney deserves a chance. I still think all of the Kaminski talk is delusional. Tommy would be a decent QB if we had a great defense. Since we don’t.. we need a more dynamic QB. Tommy has played 2 games in a row against top teams and has played very poorly.. its time to try something new. I still believe if Tommy had played our last year of Ketteringham we would have been a better team. SDSU was just all around better than us.. bigger.. faster.. more athletic.. better coached. I think Ill see Isaiah Davis in my dreams tnight running through holes in the UND line that even an old guy like me could wander through. I was hopeful that we would play better than we did on defense and disappointed that we didnt.. I was shocked that our offense was so inept. 4 Quote
dmksioux Posted October 1, 2023 Posted October 1, 2023 I assumed Ziebarth was injured when I saw us running Smith twice when we were on the goal line for that first TD. Not sure what Danny was thinking?? Quote
Oxbow6 Posted October 1, 2023 Posted October 1, 2023 In his article "5 things you might have missed..." Miller has a hot take that the inadvertent whistle prevented a moment shift. One of the things he didn't mention in his 5 things was SDSU outrushed UND 266-68. Tough to shift momentum when you're constantly getting punched in the face and abused on both sides of the line of scrimmage but if an inadvertent whistle fits your narrative to soften this beat down go for it. This game was like watching Shanley vs (insert any AAA team) on a Friday night....not competitive at all. 1 Quote
