homer Posted Saturday at 10:38 PM Share Posted Saturday at 10:38 PM Won the game the way this team is going to have to win early in the year. Not pretty but it’s a win. Offense got to see today how teams will play them from here on out. The upgrade at O-cord is noticeable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxFan100 Posted Saturday at 11:12 PM Author Share Posted Saturday at 11:12 PM I wonder how many receiving yards Bo would have if the ball got to him when open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer to that question highlights the gulf that exists between UND and both xDSUs. Winning games like this handily should become the norm if we want to get our program to the level of the xDSUs. That being said, the defense is 1000% better than last year, the o-line is solid and the running game is fun to watch. There is definite potential for further growth and improvement as the season progresses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happens, but I get your point. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams haven’t had to throw against them. Coaches just need to worry about us. Lots of inexperience out there and I like the different types of teams we have seen and found a way to beat this far. Schedule gets much more difficult from here so wins will be hard to come by and we are going to struggle at times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxFan100 Posted yesterday at 01:41 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 01:41 AM Did Romfo skip any passes today? I don’t remember any. we have shown some good and exposed some weaknesses so far this year. I think we are still improving though trying to be optimistic and realistic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year's unit was unwatchable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO our passing game is not a weakness. it doesn't exist. Safeties are 7 maybe 8 yard off the LoS. Right now pump routes are only passing offense. As the competition improves that is not going to cut it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ND-fan Posted yesterday at 03:22 AM Popular Post Share Posted yesterday at 03:22 AM I don’t know much about details of football when it comes to attacking the opposition but this years team seem to be making adjustments because we’re getting beat at times but then we’re dominating at times to comeback and win football games. I look at the top teams in the valley they are doing the same and they have been struggling to win games. The bottom line is we’re winning games. I have followed this forum since end of last season with everyone bitching about coaching staff and number of players to where I quit looking for a while. I even had doubts when we lost certain players but I think this has been good now because it looks like we now have team bought into coaching staff and staff bought into the players. we may still have poor year but so far this has not happened and still a lot of same people here are not satisfied and seem to want it to happen . I am happy for team, coaches, and looking forward to rest of the season this could be special season and so far very well prepared team. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devils Posted yesterday at 11:58 AM Share Posted yesterday at 11:58 AM I'm usually pretty patient but I think what we have seen is going to be what we get from Romfo. Hard to believe that's the best we can do with 3 or 4 scholarships used on QBs. 5 for 13 against a non-scholly team for Pete's sake...Not real impressed with our receivers outside of Bo either, but the throws have been pretty rough.

Absolutely. Maybe only about 5% or less on this board thought we would be 3-1. Work to do. Just keep improving. Bo with two deep catches. Nate with a circus catch deep.

Iowa State and Montana showing this is a championship caliber team that so far is maybe at 50% potential and certainly hasn’t played a good complete game and still at 3-1. The best players at some positions might not even be on the field yet? Like you said no one expected this start. After the awful pass coverage first half and passing game and to flip it all the second half is historically unique. Next week is the trap trap trap game then on to the Super Bowl.

This team is different. No one on this every expected our defense to be this much improved. The transfers have made a big difference and younger players stepping up.
