Tried to listen to W IL webcast, but couldn't get it in.
Their bandwidth was used up I think.

Did anyone catch the first 4 quarters? Was it two strong defenses facing off or a couple of struggling offenses?

[WYOBISONMAN]

Bummer....... would have loved a Jack win.....SDSU will be tough as nails this year!

[X-Factor]

sounds like SDSU had the advantage but had two turnovers that led to some points for WIU. Berry was rattled.

Yes.

SDSU's offense struggled mightly with the pass. SDSU's defense was pretty good. Overall, SDSU was the better team, but turnovers, over/underthrown passes, and stupid penalties cost them the game. The also lost one of their top-two RB's - knee injury - on crutches.

NDSU should demolish WIU, but SDSU could be a problem if their QB figures out how to complete a pass.

It was a very good game. SDSU lines were definitely better than Western's. Western's QB Barr is a RS-Fr who will remind Bison of Steve Walker's first year. And an outstanding running back in Donaldson.

Ryan Berry needs to hit his open receivers. And not force throws into a crowd. Trevor Hohn's knee injury is the only concern coming away from game (injury wise).

WIU has won 31 in a row at home. NDSU may not succeed in waltzing out with a win in Macomb.

But I do like Bison's chances as better than Rabbits if get into a OT battle with Western.
