Gotta play loose. 

Nothing to lose.

Back to not playing loose....or the conservative play calling of "we might actually have a chance to win":

Start Drives this half:

1st and 2nd downs: Runs up the middle.

 

But USD is scoring everytime they touch the ball.

Chaves needs to get on the How Not to Get Beat In All Sports by the Dakota Schools Committee

Wide open why are we playing so far off

My god.  Our lack of tackling skills is only eclipsed by the ugliness of our coverage schemes.

[cowboys5xsbs]

I wish this was rock bottom but we are just starting

[gfhockey]

So this gets challenged but not bowman’s fumble

A reverse pass is clock burning mode?

[rochsioux]

The defense is so soft, but at least they can’t tackle. 

[Cratter]

It turns out the season turned out like we all assumed it would during the first half of the Montana game.

The entire athletic department has gone backwards since Chaves got here. Just unreal. Can’t beat the Dakota schools in anything

Can't best any of our rivals.  Denver whooped us last night.

I disagree with whoever said the guys aren't playing hard, I think they are.  And we wouldn't be in the game after 3 quarters with the number 5 team in the country when we are barely an average team.  

[SIOUXFAN97]

jerry time?

[Hans8891]

And in a surprising turn of events, the opposing team makes halftime adjustments and we do not.  Do we have 20 yards of offense in the second half?  We still have the same 59 yards of passing we racked up in the first half.  And the defense will give up 500 while we will hope to get 225….  We looked like we were giving it a shot - and then Bubba ball emerged again.,,

[SiouxFan100]

Too bad the ugliness doesn’t end after the last game this year

[gfhockey]

8 min drive for a td

[UND Football Fan]

We showed emotion to start the game, but as John McKay would say, “My wife Corky is as emotional as hell but can’t play football”

Players are playing hard. 

Emotion and effort can carry this team (and past teams) only so far. It still comes down to talent, fundamentals and good coaching.

Go back and watch all the defensive players jogging on USDs first TD in the 2nd half on the long pass.  Tell me again how hard we are playing.  
 

than watch USD’s defense
