Siouxperfan7 Posted September 14 Posted September 14 I want to see Jerry out there as much as the next guy. But everyone needs to chill out. He is still only in his second year with the program. He will have his time. In the meantime, let’s be happy Simon is getting much needed reps before conference play begins. When he is playing in front of 19000 plus fans in the Fargodome in 3 weeks, it will prove to be worth it. Quote
UND Football Fan Posted September 15 Posted September 15 The pass that was INT on the tunnel screen, wasn’t totally on him because of the quick timing of it, that pick the OC could also be blamed because earlier ISU blew that play up. I still feel Jerry will get his time either packaged in or if Simon gets dinged up, we are running more things through Simon and having him run more. Coaches would not do that if there is not a quality backup. SDSU has two JR QB’s on roster I believe and they did not leave last year. (SDSU’s success helps), if we make playoffs and make a deep run, Jerry and others will likely stay IMO especially if we have blowout games where he can get meaningful reps. Quote

forksandspoons Posted September 15 Posted September 15 12 minutes ago, SIOUXFAN97 said: we=bubbas call Belquist seems to think it was the OC. There are other articles about Romfo being told by the OC hes the starter. Not hard. “He knows how to win, he knows how to control a game, and I think Coach Fruechte saw that and liked that,” Wide Receiver and Team Captain Bo Belquist said. “He played really well this fall camp. He controlled the ball, didn’t have too many turnovers, just played smart.” https://www.valleynewslive.com/2024/08/26/langdon-areas-simon-romfo-ready-lead-und-offense/ Quote

Popular Post Nodak78 Posted September 15 Author Popular Post Posted September 15 Time to quit bitching and accept this as a great victory for many reasons. Postgame Notes North Dakota is now 7-3 all-time in the series with Idaho State. NoDak is 46-12 in Potato Bowl USA Games. The Fighting Hawks are on a five-game winning streak in Potato Bowl USA Games. UND has now won 27 of its last 30 games inside the Alerus Center. The Fighting Hawks are now 4-1 all-time in the MVFC/Big Sky Challenge. UND led 38-7 at the break. The 38 points in the opening half were the most UND has scored in a first half in its Division I history against an FCS opponent. The 38 points were also the most points scored by UND in the first half since Aug. 30, 2012, against South Dakota School of Mines – NoDak had 45 points that half. The 52 points are the most North Dakota has ever put up against an opponent from the Big Sky Conference. It is also the third-most points NoDak has scored against an FCS team in its history. With eight receptions, Bo Belquist broke UND's Division I school record for receptions in a career with 224. He broke the record of Greg Hardin (2010-13), who hauled in 216 grabs in his career. Belquist finished with 165 yards receiving, a new career best. He had the most receiving yards by a UND receiver since Greg Hardin put up 179 yards at UC Davis on Nov. 16, 2013. In the opening quarter, Devin Hembry recorded a 92-yard pick-six to put UND up 14-0 early. With the pick, he became the first Hawk to score a pick-six since Ted Mullin had a 33-yard interception return for touchdown in the 49-10 win over Western Illinois last season. Lance Rucker and Riley Gerhardt each had a strip-sack and a fumble recovery. Jonnie Wiltshire also forced a fumble in the fourth quarter that was recovered by Kason Kelley. Devin Hembry also had a 92-yard pick-six in the first quarter. 11 Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted September 15 Posted September 15 First drive should have been ground and pound with Z....but we decided to throw. Trainwreck of a series. First play.....easy throw to Bo....ten yards too short..........again. Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted September 15 Posted September 15 couple plays later...........easiest TD throw/catch ever and simon underthrows by 20 yards and puts on the opposite shoulder which made bo fall down instead of walking into the end zone for 45-7 lead Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted September 15 Posted September 15 AND to top it off.....the "I'm throwing here no matter what just like his other 2 picks this year".... Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted September 15 Posted September 15 should be 45-7 and our defense would be buzzing....instead they score and make it 38-14 and even tho the game was probably over......it never is. Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted September 15 Posted September 15 no clue what is going on here......off by how many yards? dont think it was tipped considering the trajectory of the football off his hands is "off....alot" Quote

Take breath and step back we are on the move. 4 Quote
forksandspoons Posted September 15 Posted September 15 Yes, he missed some easy throws. We get it. Still had more passing yards than any game last season and on 65.7%. Personally, I think he can correct some things and make those throws he missed. You seem to want him to fail for whatever reason. 4 Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted September 15 Posted September 15 and theeeeee worst throw I might have ever seen by a und QB....... Quote

I do think we could do some fun stuff this year with a vertical passing game to go with the intermediate and the rb's and wr's and the online is geling.... the defense is playing as a team and looking like defense of old under bubba (d2 bubba)....Craig o is a mean sob...linebackers looking good so far....... the most important position in football is the QB and after 3 games we don't have one......just imo but if he keeps winning he'll keep the other qb's on the bench I guess Quote
