We've gotta be really thin on defense. 

Would say good experience gainer when we still wish we had our starters back. But they also can't seem to be tight in coverage and always seems to be a yard or 2 off when ball arrives.

Defense holds them to a field goal again 

[Oxbow6]

Will Isaac play call from here on out to only lose by 2 scores??

[SIOUXFAN97]

5 wide...tempo...let's go

[geaux_sioux]

No Rucker…. Defense is still salty. It’s nuts if you look at our secondary right now. We always bow up in the red zone though. It’s been impressive late in the year.

I thought he missed it at first and then it curved in. That was strange for such a short FG to spin that much at the end 

[rochsioux]

To have any chance we are going to have to throw the ball and complete them to the correct team. I have absolutely no faith that Jerry can do this.

Defense showed up, but can’t be out there all game. Fun year, and did better than I expected. 

Good foundation to work with for next year.

how many d backs are we missing now?  I've lost track. 

[UND69er]

This game was winnable, but only with some smarter offensive play. Tarleton is good, but our offense can't fool anyone. OL got whipped too. 

[rochsioux]

This team was very very beatable. Our offense has just flat out sucked. 

[ND-fan]

Game over defense spent and no changes on offense this was wasted game  kaminski was ready to play hasn’t been since last of the season no progression and Schmidt doesn’t want to play Simon not what he thinks quarterback looks like betting his future on new recruits. I am afraid we still haven’t turned corner.

[Washburn Sioux]

Hate when you have the coach (OC) lose the game for the team!!

[Wildfan]

Somewhat want to see us try something different and maybe Simon just to see if we can make something happen. Also in the mindset to not let them bail out Issac and let him walk.

[geaux_sioux]

Looking forward to AI replacing these cameramen

Competent coaching on defense, not on offense 

Offense: NSIC to MVFC

Defense: PAC-12/Mountain West to MVFC

these things are no surprise

Players need to execute as well.  Some very poorly thrown balls today but yes….our play calling was brutal. 

[Wildfan]

Find some money bring in quality OC with a associate head coach title. Schmidt is a defensive minded coach, and could use a higher end OC. Tough part is the guy UND hired to be OC initially is an hour south with the Ag school and left UND scrambling after a couple weeks to get a OC when they brought in Issac.

Where is Deng Deng?

[SIOUXFAN97]

up the gut down 3 scores....elite call ike

[cowboys5xsbs]

Flemming great catch
