The current QB situation has looked awful so far, but to answer your question, we beat NDSU by 25 points, completing 9 passes for 118 yards. San Diego was 5 completions for 159 yards.

SIOUXFAN97 Posted 23 hours ago Share Posted 23 hours ago remember when mustard moved from d2 bball to d2 football to the nfl wonder if TT could've done something like that... all our te's look like fullbacks and h back which is fine but having a 6'7 or 6'8 guy with good hands at TE would be awesome but i guess fruchte doesn't use the te that much like danny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not trolling, just really want to know what goes into the rating criteria. thanks in advance. I found this. What is the formula for the NCAA QBR? The NCAA formula is: [ { (8.4 * yards) + (330 * touchdowns) - (200 * interceptions) + (100 * completions) } / attempts ]. In 1979, when the NCAA developed the passing efficiency formula, they used average statistics from the previous 14 seasons of two-platoon football (which started in 1965).

Thanks for the information Nodak78. The formula works. Rhetorical questions would be… is the NFL formula the same (NFL QBs like Rodgers seldom had a rating over 100) and what would Schuster’s rating be? Braden Hansen? These statistics would suggest that Romfo is a better than average QB, and would not be the worst in the MVFC or in the history of UND QBs.

UND-FB-FAN Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago 21 hours ago, geaux_sioux said: I know everyone is hot on the new OC, and for good reason, but let’s maybe put the pitchforks down for Danny. I have major gripes with how Danny called certain situations, the entire Sac playoff game for instance, but do keep in mind that in the red zone he was an absolute assassin. Fruechte could take a page out of that book IMO. We’ve had to settle for too many short fgs. Against top teams that will bite us. Other than that I’ve been very impressed. Danny Freund left UND for South Dakota State, a direct UND rival, which facilitated an exit of some UND players. That hurts, and I’ll admit I was definitely critical of the situation. However, it is also okay to be hot on the new UND OC Fruechte and objectively compare the two and perhaps give the early edge to Fruechte. It’s only been 4 games, much more to come. It’s also not fair to Fruechte to be too critical given what he has to work with at QB, so need to wait until year 2 to see what the QB position and depth evolves into. Also, some 4th downs in red zone could perhaps be considered “go” territory but yet UND settles for FG - that’s as much up to HC as OC. Ultimately, though, you’re right in that red zone offense is key, and needs to be better. To give credit where credit is due, though, third down is the money down; and Fruechte has been damn good there considering what he has been working with in a small school, small guy QB in Romfo. The third and long conversion throw by Romfo late in the Montana game was a critical conversion not enough people are talking about. Major props overall are warranted to both Fruechte and Romfo, considering Freund left UND out to dry at that those positions (OC, QB, and QB coach) and UND could easily be much worse than they are right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His rating of 111.41 currently ranks him 91 of 112 rated passers in the FCS according to NCAA.com. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post wheelsup Posted 1 hour ago Popular Post Share Posted 1 hour ago Danny was a very good OC. He was such a big upgrade from the prior OC that its not even comparable. My only real complaint with him was that he tended to rely too much on trick plays for my liking and particularly in the last year could have been more successful by leaning into the running game. Fruechte has been very good so far, particularly with his focus on the teams offensive mindset and strength.. hopefully he continues to improve and can develop a more balanced attack. I know people dont like to give Bubba credit but the recruitment of Fruechte and Olson seem like very positive improvements to the team in a time that it could have been a disaster. Finally, if anyone really wanted Danny as a future HC candidate/Bubba replacement for UND.. a stint at a successful program like SDSU will make him more qualified rather than less qualified in my book. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
