Sioux fans suffer from that superiority complex as well, and it will bite them in the ass too, just like it is for us. The issue is though, I always thought we were going to play very good teams. But I just don't think we're playing very good right now.
We cannot keep making the same mistakes as of last year and expect to win when playing tougher competition. We got extremely luck last year.
We dont have the play makers we did last year. PL

Mistakes, turnovers will lose a game. The blocked punt proved that today.
Re: Official Gameday Thread: NDSU vs WIU 3pm kickoff
About the blocked punt. What was the rush. It looked like they tired to get the punt off before the other team was ready. If so, I hate when teams do that. It normally ends up being a procedure penalty on the punting team. This was worse.

Re: Official Gameday Thread: NDSU vs WIU 3pm kickoff
It seemed our players held there heads down a lot the 2nd half. No confidence in themselves.
Re: Official Gameday Thread: NDSU vs WIU 3pm kickoff
Screw what are record is right now, We need to look at it one game at a time and every game is a must win.
IMO were 0-0 and need to get work.
Re: Official Gameday Thread: NDSU vs WIU 3pm kickoff
0-0, I say right now we have the Marker in sight.
Re: Official Gameday Thread: NDSU vs WIU 3pm kickoff
Can we not come into the game with the same old lets just run the ball offense just once? Mertens can make plays but the coaching staff never lets him get going. Let the guy get into a little rhythm and see what happens.
Also what happened to the shotgun formation? Just asking, can Mertens not run it or do the coaches just don't want to run it?
Finally, I just want to see a well played game next week. Good special teams play and few penalties. That is all I ask, the bar is that low.
Re: Official Gameday Thread: NDSU vs WIU 3pm kickoff
I am questioning coaching, you are right. What happened to the shotgun.
