Fans still too quiet on 1st and 2nd down.  Fans in my section getting mad at people standing and yelling on 1st and 2nd down.  Be nice for announcer to hype crowd up before 3rd down 

Yeah, in a game like this.....needs to be loud on every down.

Agree with this too.  Crowd noise wasn't that noticeable to me.

Poor scouting to not have our OL be ready for the SU DL shift. We had 3 false starts....in our own building due to this. Did they not see this in film, and maybe have the scout team due this in practice so they were used to it??

Bingo

If that is the rule then so be it.

When he released the ball, he released the ball back towards our goal line while moving in the direction of the NDSU  goal line. Physics will keep the ball moving horizontally for a bit before it moves to the ground.

 

I would say since the ball was released in opposite direction he was headed that would make sense......but

 

I can understand the interpretation the officials made though 

[Siouxperman8]

Simple to me.  Run the damn ball at the 6 inch line with 2 downs left and again at the 2 with 4 cracks at it. 
 

also get under center on short yardage.  We lived  on the sneak with  Q in those situations.  Maybe Jerry’s not that guy but find a TE or FB that is good at that.  
 

Do those two simple things and we’re all celebrating tonight.

Noise situation was good but could be better. Band plays too damn much when UND has the ball (is on offense) and fans need to be loud on all downs when UND is on defense. F’ the “fans” who complain about those around them that are excited and wanting to amp up the atmosphere ... it’s simple, teach that you go home and watch the game if you don’t like the participation/ noise or learn to join in…

Anyways, UND’s offense lost the game today. Very disappointing. Get back to work boys. Fruechte and his unit needs to do better. Coach Schmidt and his JYDs deserved the win today, D balled out, O needs to be better … 4 losses by a total of 14 pts and all 4 games defense gave UND a chance to win via 2 minute drill and the O continues to falter …

Ndsu is very beatable. Youngstown lost to them by 8 last week (had many chances ) and und by 5 this week. Indiana st was controlling the 1st half of their game three weeks ago until a two hour delay. Ndsu controlled after that.

 

Thought their qb looked better in highlights.  He’s not that impressive.  His running skills are more pronounced because of his size/speed. Decent moves but he simply is bigger than most defensive guys at this level. His qb skills tho??  He locks in on #1 and just gives a hurl the direction of the wr in hopes he completes it.  Think he would make a better rb.  They really don’t have any decent rb it looks like.  Decent OL. Their D played fairly well.  But unds Offense had a lot to do with that.  
 

If they didn’t have home field advantage  through out the playoffs I could see them losing out in the quarterfinals.  But  they have home field.  
 

I can’t pinpoint one thing that is truly dominant about Ndsu .  Not impressed

The noise making, true fans priced out?  Maybe. 

[Hawkster]

If you're going for it on 4th and inches at midfield you'd better make darn sure to get it.  That one hurt.

South Dakota defeats the jacks.  Nice win for them.  They really turned their season around 

[UND69er]

This and several other games the last few years were winnable IF we had confidence in kicking FGs. You cannot be a confident winning program in todays game wo a reliable kicker. Period. UND has missed oppty after oppty to win or take a lead in games early for as long as I can remember.  Playing FB wo kicking FGs is like wrestling with both hands tied behind you. Terrible handicap both in scoring and in decision making.

Game against SDSU could mean loser not in playoffs. 

[siouxweet]

Losing at home by 5 to the defending national champions and number 1 ranked team will not drop us that far.   Willing to bet we are no lower than 15

That has to be on the Moving Co.  Could not make space for 1 damn yard

I don't think the committee will take 5 MVFC teams. ISUred, NDSU, and USD are likely in. UND vs SDSU for the 4th spot??? Real possibility.

They don’t have the personnel yet to win close games against good teams, leaves coaches with less good options. Hopefully next year will add quality and quantity of players to impose will during these types of games .

Agree.  They are close, and we all want them to be there.  Soon.

When they run blitz off the edge because everybody in the building knows the play call....that is on the OC. 

Before the snap I was like, are we really going to run the QB keeper up the right side again? I was wondering, maybe there is a wrinkle built into thus formation.  Nope, same exact f'ing play as we ran the previous 4th down. 

[JohnboyND7]

Had a blast in grand forks. Game was fun. The little girls in front of me gave me a hard time. Hope you all enjoyed the weekend as well despite the loss

I know Im crazy, but Im still holding out hope that we finally win one of these close ones in the playoffs against a good team. Need to win the next two first.

At this point I think Youngstown is in as well.

You guys might be right. Playoffs start now
