GDT: NDSU Vs EWU

[HerdThat!]

* No I am not taking the reigns, but we do at least need a thread.

Sunny.
Labor Day Weekend.
Vikings stadium.
Over shadowing the State Fair.
Crime down in part to being scared of THUNDER.
Headlines: (McFooley sucks)

Predictions:
National Mammal: 42
National Bird: 20

[heffray]

Phew now I feel better. I there a voting process or how do we decide who takes over the GDTs?

[Bison03]

Well, now it feels like a gameday. Excited to see the downtown green and yellow takeover. I think the crowd will sound bigger today then people think. Happy season opener, Lets Go Bison!!

Bison: 38
Ugly Birds: 17

[HerdThat!]

Phew now I feel better. I there a voting process or how do we decide who takes over the GDTs?

I think someone asked Entz in the presser, something about “by committee”

[GreenfieldBison]

Who is up (and sober) at midnight every Saturday morning? Anyone? Buehler?

Well done!
Now I might have to go find my “Swinging Gate Conundrum”
post from the last several years. Then I don’t have to write a new one.
And, unfortunately, it still applies……

Edit: found one in the James Madison thread, it’s easier to copy & paste
& I want to get back outside for a while…


During this season I have referred to NDSU’s Swinging Gate Conundrum.

What is that again? Well, when Coach Entz was asked why he uses the Swinging Gate on extra points at the beginning of the season, he mentioned something to the effect of wanting teams to see that on film and need to prepare for it. The Conundrum, to this casual fan, is the coaching staff held back on using the full playbook on offense, especially the passing game. That kept those plays “from being put on film”.

My question/concern has always been - Will that full playbook/passing attack be there & work if NDSU does not use/practice it during regular gametime - when a competitive games’ outcome depends on it?

[heffray]

Well anyway, I’ll put my hat in the ring to be the new GDT guy…

[dewey]

I am excited to see all of the new players. Going to need to have the roster handy.

Bison 34

I apologize, but I don't have access to real-time information as my knowledge cutoff date is September 2021. To get up-to-date information about the football game between NDSU and Eastern Washington at US Bank Stadium, I recommend checking a sports news website, a dedicated sports app, or an official source for the most current details.


Bing with ChatGPT 4 is a little better


The North Dakota State University (NDSU) Bison will be playing against the Eastern Washington University (EWU) Eagles today at the US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This game is the first college football game to be played at this stadium
1. The game is scheduled to start at 2:30 PM Central Time
2. I’m sorry, but I don’t have any information about the current status of the game. However, you can check out the latest news and updates about the game from various sources such as Star Tribune, Inforum, and KVRR.
I hope this helps!

We can make it a joint effort bro.

A joint joint if u will.

[B.Schlossman Fan Club]

If you can’t stop the run you will never beat the Bison, even though I’m worried about the defense I feel like the offense will chew clock and score a ton of points

NDSU 49-31

[KSBisonFan]

Middle screen?
TEs catching passes?
Receivers catching a pass in the middle of the field?
Delta formation?
Tasmanian Tigers?

Has anyone seen these lately or are they all extinct?

I'll be watching our LBs and DBs. Are they in position before and during the play and wrapping up tackles? Will Cole be allowed to pass or is the same predictable run every time he gets in the game? Can we make a statement in the first game after getting our asses handed to us in the Natty? Is there an alpha male on defense this year (There wasn't last year)?

I think our defense gives up too many yards and points today, but we pull out a win 35-24.

First play is a dive up the middle.

Alright guys, here’s my first try, a little late, but expect something like this (with more of an intro of game opponent, time, location, etc) going forward:

Eesh, not an encouraging first pass of the season by Cam...

[Big Bird]

Great throw on third and 12. Right on the money

[SoCalBison]

Like the tempo.

[Big Bird]

4 of the first 5 plays...are passes and some up-tempo.

This is downright refreshing

[OrygunBison]

Wow, Miller is slooooooowwww.

[SoCalBison]

82 with the TD! The season begins.

[OrygunBison]

Really great play design.

now thats what i like 2 call a cattle drive! nicely done

[SlickVic]

trot in there baby!!!

[SoCalBison]

Nice run! Williams puts it into 2nd gear...

[Big Bird]

Williams with an incredible run. Great balance

[Kevin]

Love the stiff arm.

Interesting player selection on D for these 3rd and longs.

hey NDSU D coaches. they are running on 3rd to set up 4th it's so obvious... so wake up

[SlickVic]

what in the kind of defense was that!

[Kevin]

Secondary looking lost at times.

[El_Chapo]

That latest shot of the crowd still looks very thin.

nah. I was pessimistic.. this is beyond good crowd. active. loud . we good. 25-30k

[Big Bird]

Well, that wasn't good.

Shepherd just forgot his assignment.

Pass rush absolutely non-existent thus far too.

[heffray]

Yeah blown coverage there.

[Big Bird]

hey NDSU D coaches. they are running on 3rd to set up 4th it's so obvious... so wake up

They gained 2 yards on the third and ten run...

That's very good and nothing to complain about

[SlickVic]

ok thats enuff of this cutsey stuff now feed williams plz

[El_Chapo]

STOEFFL. WIDE OPEN AGAIN!!

CAM HAS TO LOOK AROUND MORE!!!

EASY TD. not a guy within 20 yards. but Cam is sooo focused on the play called

[El_Chapo]

4th and 3 and we run a RB end around???

wtf

EWU ball on downs

[Wolfie]

Run? 4th and 3?ok

[NDSUstudent]

Roehl gonna Roehl

[Kevin]

Terrible call.

Give me the headset bro.

[mtoutfitter]

O Line got pushed back big time and pushed the RB outside. I wouldn't say that was Roehl's fault.

You wouldn’t but u also aren’t a great football mind bro.

Not like me and lakes.

Defense does not looked improved.

It really worries me that the DL aren't winning with any regularity.

[heffray]

O Line got pushed back big time and pushed the RB outside. I wouldn't say that was Roehl's fault.

I agree I think it was just bad execution, but maybe a pass play on 4th n 3? Idk…

To my eye, looks like 21,000... :)

Ummm that’s likely overkill on at least the second two items.

Save this post and if I’m wrong I’ll gladly admit it. This team is going to have to improve to beat those teams. EWU is a bottom half of the Big Sky team. We’re making them look better than they are. We miss on too many plays both offense and defense. You get away with that against EWU. You don’t against quality teams. UNI and UND are quality teams.

[heffray]

Aaaaaaaand we’re back….

[El_Chapo]

#20 Julian getting ROASTED

help him!!!

[heffray]

What should I be excited about? The qb runs? The missed open receivers? The missed tackles?

This is the first half of our first game and you’re already calling a loss to UND… let’s get through the non-con first…

[KSBisonFan]

QB carries = 8
RB carries = 8

[Wolfie]

Zero pressure on qb other than the one sack

[NDSU92]

Have we tried running the ball with a slower QB? Maybe that would work

[Snowgoose]

I haven’t seen Cole really throw much in his time at ndsu but if our plan is to run QB power a lot again this year then it doesn’t matter much how good Payton is at throwing he is a better runner than Cam.

[NDSU92]

Zero pressure on qb other than the one sack

Usual cold take of the day

[BigLakeBison]

This is the first half of our first game and you’re already calling a loss to UND… let’s get through the non-con first…

I’m saying we know what championship football looks like. This isn’t it.

[OrygunBison]

Cam needs to sit

COLE TIME

Cole can't throw.

[heffray]

Have we tried running the ball with a slower QB? Maybe that would work

Lol this got me…

havnt seen a block like that since lavarr arrington good gravy nicely done!

Lol you also said we’d lose to UND, so… apparently the scale is winning Championships or losing to UND, there is no in between…

[El_Chapo]

Cole can't throw.

coaches won't let him ELSE THEYD HAVE TO DEAL W A QB CONTROVERSY

DUHH. that is the problem and that ISNT COACHING

you make the big bucks. be a man

[BigLakeBison]

Lol you also said we’d lose to UND, so… apparently the scale is winning Championships or losing to UND, there is no in between…

EWU would lose to UND by multiple scores. We’re going to have to work for a victory against UND if we play like this first half.

[El_Chapo]

coaches won't let him else theyd have to deal w a qb controversy

duhh. That is the problem and that isnt coaching

you make the big bucks. Be a man

dammmmit!!! Wtf

[Kevin]

Gee Roehl what a surprise.

[SlickVic]

do we not have an i-formation in the playbook anymore or ... this is starting to concern me

[mtoutfitter]

Miller missed his block big time!

[Kevin]

He’s honestly the most predictable play caller I’ve ever seen. Year in year out nothing changes.

[Prime Power]

Cam Miller sucks....

[Big Bird]

Man, the play calling started so promising today.

Frustrating short yardage calls

[KSBisonFan]

Our execution up front has been poor on short yardage. Or maybe EWU is a defensive juggernaut. What do I know.

[OrygunBison]

coaches won't let him ELSE THEYD HAVE TO DEAL W A QB CONTROVERSY

DUHH. that is the problem and that ISNT COACHING

you make the big bucks. be a man

Bullshit. You're clueless. I'm pretty sure that I saw enough during the October SDSU game last year. I assume the coaches haven't seen anything better in practice to change their minds.

[heffray]

That was a good play call and execution, just a horrible decision by Cam to cut up the middle instead of following his blockers to the outside.

[EndZoneQB]

Roehl is so predictable. He is not our standard.

It's time to move on if he won't improve. Beatings will continue until morale improves.

[SoCalBison]

EWU would lose to UND by multiple scores. We’re going to have to work for a victory against UND if we play like this first half.

Written when we're up by 14.

[Snowgoose]

Miller missed his block big time!

Yes he did but again we r giving to the guy that can’t make people miss or break tackles. Why?

[HerdBot]

do we not have an i-formation in the playbook anymore or ... this is starting to concern me

No we only run out of shotgun on 3rd and short

[Kevin]

Bullshit. You're clueless. I'm pretty sure that I saw enough during the October SDSU game last year. I assume the coaches haven't seen anything better in practice to change their minds.

Just stop bro.

Ur not a great football mind.

[Schwarz04]

Entz has to be the biggest meathead on Earth. If you’re going for it running, why isn’t Cole Payton in?

[#1BISONFAN ASHLEY]

Score in what 4 plays with Payton and we don't see him again????

[oldmantutters]

I see Tyler Roehl is still the OC... great....

May as well make Payton the QB if this is the offense Roehl wants to run.

[Schwarz04]

Entz = giant meathead

[mtoutfitter]

Yes he did but again we r giving to the guy that can’t make people miss or break tackles. Why?

If he wouldn't have missed his block there wouldn't have been need for either.

[heffray]

EWU would lose to UND by multiple scores. We’re going to have to work for a victory against UND if we play like this first half.

Buddy I am just responding to ridiculous things you’re saying. Keep doubling down, this is kinda fun…

[NDSU92]

I’m going to start an NIL campaign. $1000 each game minus $100 each time Roehl calls QB draw/dive. Crowdfund some better playcalling

[EndZoneQB]

I honestly think the staff is going to give Cole some opportunities to take the job this year, as they did with Cam and Patterson. I bet we see more Cole in the 2nd half.......I hope.

[SlickVic]

Miller missed his block big time!

good eye! beginning to understand all the pre-season pod hype 4 kopp good gravy is he solid

[Snowgoose]

If he wouldn't have missed his block there wouldn't have been need for either.

I agree but get the ball in playmakers hands. Cam is not a great runner yet we continue to do it in critical situations. That is not his best skill set. U might as well play cole than.

[SlickVic]

cmon CAS-------- u gotta trot that one in there, baby!

[KSBisonFan]

For as long as Cam has been in the program, he appears to be severely limited in making reads/audibles at the line and working through his progressions.

[Kevin]

Great. Entz’s 50 year old chain smoking Karen voice is back.

[heffray]

For as long as Cam has been in the program, he appears to be severely limited in making reads/audibles at the line and working through his progressions.

Correct, he’s the first NDSU QB I recall doing the whole “look to the sidelines” thing before the snap… I don’t like it…

[SlickVic]

anybody know is entz a smoker or he just get that voice from coachin so much ball?

[Big Bird]

3 positives for the defense so far IMO:
1. Wisniewski.
2. The linebackers. Missing less tackles and looking like playmakers
3. Petrino. DL isn't getting home, but he's dialing up blitzes at what seems like a higher rate than we've seen before, and it's working to create pressure. When you blitz, more pressure is on the secondary to do their jobs well, and they largely have. On the TD, that was a good call, just terrible execution by Shepherd.

[SoCalBison]

Love you guys. 21-7 at half and, while there are some issues, y'all see the sky falling...

[mtoutfitter]

Correct, he’s the first NDSU QB I recall doing the whole “look to the sidelines” thing before the snap… I don’t like it…

I second that! Just said the same thing to my GF.

[El_Chapo]

should be 35-7 & ndsu getting ball


missed opportunities big time

[El_Chapo]

Bullshit. You're clueless. I'm pretty sure that I saw enough during the October SDSU game last year. I assume the coaches haven't seen anything better in practice to change their minds.

no I'm 1000% right here.

[mtoutfitter]

Kopp, Kubitz and Wisneiwski are all playing really well in my opinion.

[El_Chapo]

Correct, he’s the first NDSU QB I recall doing the whole “look to the sidelines” thing before the snap… I don’t like it…

and he goes with whatever play call.is and doesn't look for other options (in this 1st Q he missed 2 wide open tds)

[OrygunBison]

This would be a tied game with last year's defense. I'm seeing a lot of positive.

You're probably correct.

Cam isn’t a very good qb at anything and as long as we are going to run him so predictably situationally might as well put in a better athlete at qb.

[Bison03]

People would complain if it was 50-0, so oh well. I think we are playing pretty good. Running the ball over and over on a team who was last in the FCS in rushing defense last year is a good idea. Just need to make plays.

[ZHerd]

This would be a tied game with last year's defense. I'm seeing a lot of positive.

Agreed. Their qb is good too.

[SlickVic]

cmon guys cams a tuff cookie and hes stood in ther and made some solid throws ... ill give you the play-calling im not a fan either ... the serious for payton was a nod to rocky aka mad entzes mentor ... anybody member rocky used to do this with the back-up? i guess he did it every game! what a time to be alive!!!

I don’t know guys, the way we are playing we would struggle to beat UND…

[bloodmakesthegrassgrow]

This isn’t the UNI of old either, they were losing 30-0 against Iowa State.

That's a great consolation........

[BiZon22]

Cole Payton needs to start. Fuck the bunnies. We own the FCS. Let’s go FBS. Go bison

All this time, I just thought it was a hearing issue.

Cam looks to sideline, "What's the play again, eh?"

Coach, "QB run"

Cam, "What, I can't hear you. Lakes is yelling at the ref"

Coach, "QB run"

Cam, "huh? Again?"

Coach, "Yup"

Cam, Seriously, bro?"

Coach, "just run it!!!"

[NDSUstudent]

Minus a few things the defense has been very solid.

Offense is what it is.

[reformedUNDfan]

People calling for benching a QB throwing 71% at half with 124 total yards.

Cam isn't calling the plays.

Good point, but this situation is a little more nuanced than that.

[mtoutfitter]

Yes. I'll take 290 yds of offense in the 1st half pretty much any day.

I mean if we’re just going to cherry pick stats, the backup has almost as many yards with 15% of the attempts

We look better vs a passing team. But can we stop a power running team? Tbd

TAPE DONT LIE for QB play in that 1st half.

Cole is in

1st down

The cool thing is that I get 2 games for the price of one. 1) the one that I'm watching on ESPN+, and 2) the horrible all-around performance that I read on BV.

"oh no were stopping the run" ... excuse me?

[NDSU92]

Cherry picking. You guys are clowns

Oh did your feelings get hurt? Lol

[heffray]

Lol, what game are you watching?

[El_Chapo]

ON 2ND AND 15. THEY ONLY GAVE COLE 1 OPTION ON A BACKDOOR FLY...

3rd down he missed Zach on the right and threw into ground up middle.

Cole should be rolling and throwing

[KSBisonFan]

Cole is going to have pass effectively or SDSU will continue beating us.

[NDSUstudent]

Last two drives...3 run plays for Cam...3 passes for Cole.

Roehl gonna Roehl.

[Bison03]

Umm…can we pump the breaks now on Cole? One good run, a side arm 2 yard completion, stood there and got stacked, threw at a receivers feet. Put Cam back in! Lol

[OrygunBison]

Great ball placement there, you're right. Wow, I stand corrected.

[Kevin]

Crazy idea bros.

Let cam throw and the rb’s run.

Then let Cole do the qb runs.

Written when we're up by 14.

To a bottom half big sky team. We know the standard. This isn’t it.

[El_Chapo]

Roehl only gave him 1 WR option on that sack with a fly route

stupid

[NDSUstudent]

Can Cole throw?

I am still not sure.

[KSBisonFan]

I missed game day threads.

[dewey]

Cole is going to have pass effectively or SDSU will continue beating us.

Agreed. We will not be able to run for over 200 against SDSU.

Cam and Cole will need to be efficient in the pass game. Hopefully by then Roehl has some sort of identity offensively.

Dewey

[OrygunBison]

Can Cole throw?

El Chirpo says the tape doesn't lie.

[Snowgoose]

Cole has never looked good throwing. Bigger problem is roehls play calling. Cam is not a great runner and we need to use our backs and wrs who have some athleticism and get them the ball. Let’s not have our weakest runner do the most running.

[El_Chapo]

whoa. where's Jayden Price. PR.

[El_Chapo]

El Chirpo says the tape doesn't lie.

yea I SAID. COLE MISSED ZACH OPEN ON 3RD. I admitted it right away

coaches schemes are AWFUL and he had all summer!!

[SlickVic]

ok we done playing paddy cakes now tyler? time 2 get under center 4 cripes sake!

[EndZoneQB]

To a bottom half big sky team. We know the standard. This isn’t it.

Exactly. This is the issue. Entz and Roehl don't appear to be up to the task. It remains to be seen with Petrino, but I bet we get bullied by SDSU. Good thing the FCS is trash now, probably a semi final appearance and we stay status quo.

[heffray]

To a bottom half big sky team. We know the standard. This isn’t it.

There’s a clear standard, you guys… its 15-0 Championship football where we beat the spreads by 30 points every time or its a 3-8 season with losses to UND. There is no in between, no room for growth.

[bison22]

Absolutely love that we are blitzing our LBs more.

[OrygunBison]

yea I SAID. COLE MISSED ZACH OPEN ON 3RD. I admitted it right away

Point is that he's never shown he's capable of anything other than handing off and running. He's another Quincy Patterson, except without the long ball.

[El_Chapo]

holy shit CAM. that was worse!

he just took 1 step and slung it. doesn't even look.

give Cole 2-3 drives in a row so Mentally he knows he can get into a passing Rythym

[heffray]

Point is that he's never shown he's capable of anything other than handing off and running. He's another Quincy Patterson, except without the long ball.

He definitely needs more live throwing reps, but i have a hard time believing our coaches would recruit a QB who can’t throw…

[NDSU92]

Are you talking about Cam or Cole?

One hasn’t shown it because they haven’t seen the field yet

BIIIINGO....let him cook

[tjamz]

IDK if this has been said yet, but as much as our QB's telegraph their plays I don't think could freeze Mitch McConnell.... Joe Biden.... probably, but he's already frozen.
