ISU-R Post Game Thoughts & Discussion

A lot of you even in the post game thread are way too negative. We literally beat the #6 ranked team in the FCS by three scores. This thread should be absolutely about celebrating a good win after we completely obliterated their heads thanks to some good performances in the fourth quarter.

At least this wasn't 2024 with the ETSU game that was heart attack inducing, in the year we still won the natty in. I am really optimistic about how well this team can and will do against UND/SDSU and think we have a team that can absolutely perform well enough to beat those teams with a vengeance when the time ultimately comes. GO BISON!

I wish you were right, but a W in the Win/Loss column doesn't excuse the coaching staff's mistakes and pitiful unpreparedness of the defense, and the blatant stupidity of the whole approach of the Bison offense, especially in the 1st half.

No,No,No!! There is no excuse for the sins of commission and omnission of this coaching staff. How could they have our LB's standing around oblivious not knowing what to do? How could they be sending our CB's on blitzes with no clue how to approach a QB like Rittenhouse?

I know when I watch this game over again, pausing and rewinding like I did the first time, I am going to see more sickening crap than I did the first time.

This game should not have been close. I would really like to know what Kyle Emmanuel's personnel and private thoughts were concerning the Bison pass rush today. I venture to think he may have been doing more ranting and raving than me.

I believe that NDSU covered the Sagarin spread, which I believe was 15 points. Might jump to 35th

Big win over a top tier team with some really good players, and accomplished despite a debacle 1st half.
