UND @ Kansas State 8/30/25

[Brim006]

So much for the junk yard dog mentality. Played scared on both sides of the ball when the game was theirs to win. 

[Cratter]

I enjoy the bickering. Keep it up!

I can only do so much to ruffle the feathers around here!

From the eyeball test DD is the only WR that looks and plays the part. He needs at least 8 targets a game moving forward.

Sucks we lost, no doubt. I wouldn’t want to call this a quality loss even. But today has me even more pumped for the season than it did prior. Pack the damn Alerus!

- if there was a QB question, I think that is solved. 

- one game but I will never understand the lack of Ziebarth touches. 

- Wiltshire’s health is huge. Guy is a beast. 

- Korey Tai needs even more touches

- prevent defense is stopped af

f z....Sawyer was spinning it and where was he with 2 minutes left

Schmidt might have learned from Kaleb +

Schmidt use to playing in big time arenas +

New locker room this program a bump (see Alerus Center 1st year) +

New first of head coaches get bumps (see Hak & Brad B) +

This year of any year has all the making of being one of the best.

How far is yet to be determined....

Game 1 proved all this to be correct so far.

The defense is the real deal the QB for Kstate is the defending offensive player of the year in big 12, and we had him confused all game except for 3 plays that cost us, he will be a very high draft pick. Jerry my be the TRUTH and I don't know if we are mentally ready for that, he made one bad throw the whole game. The OC needs to figure his !@#$ out but we are deep at WR and TE, RB is interesting cause our leading back from last year only played a few snaps. I think 8 wins is the minimum expectation now.

I think I'm going to head up next Saturday and watch.  An effort like today deserves support.

We need a siouxsports app to listen too during the games because the blowouts will be so boring!

Hopefully the defense fixes the contain issues quick. Depth on defense will be challenged as the season goes on. 
 

Why not give Ziebarth more carries? I get that he fumbled but come on. 
 

I hope I never see a bubble screen again. Passes behind the LOS have such little reward for such high risk. 
 

Need to have a good week of practice and get better. 
 

pack the Alerus! 

[Cratter]

Kansas State was a preview of NDSU vs UND this year.

But those extra points that made KSU win...

It was home field advantage.

Bookies give automatic +3 for home field team

UND beats KSU and NDSU at the Alerus Center this year.

UND would have whooped Kansas State azz tonight if it was at the Alerus Center!

Leigh had 9 carries for -1 yard. You don’t think ziebarth could get positive net yards on 9 attempts?

yes i agree but look at what Sawyer did in his limited time....hit the holes with speed that neither x or z has...

I guess Isaac knows what he's doing .....or not

Your obsession with wondering whether players will bolt to the portal or not is cringe. I have fond memories of you saying Jerry was gone a couple years ago.

You said Jerry would leave after your infamous bike ride and Tommy won the starting job.

Well you did, and either way you fantasizing about it is weird. What if Deng is just a much better person than you who won't bolt at the first sign of something going wrong?

I really thought that kstate's TE's would have 10 plus catches and multiple td's....

I don't understand the play calling on the offense and the defense.  They went into a shell on both sides of the ball.  Oh, well moving on I guess.. 

Offense:

Positives:  We have a QB that can make all the throws.  He looks good.

Neg:  O-line got handled and they had no push up the middle.

Don't now about the receivers, still a number of drops and limited separation.  Fr TE looked good.

Defense:

Hard to read the defense - still a work in progress.  No sacks, missed 4 or 5 opportunities to make plays.  Only a couple of miscommunications that I could see - resulting in TDs.

Overall, I didn't see a ton of mental errors: procedure, offside, motion, illegal formation type of stuff.  So, that we good.  The last two minutes of the games is on the coaches.

 Agree. I thought they sacked him by his hair though?
