So is that a missed PAT or 2 FGs?

Missed PAT

So is that a missed PAT or 2 FGs?

Or three safeties. Unfortunately we've seen those....

Battle of the kickers, including the punters, and the defense. We have to win those 2 phases to win. I have no reason to believe our offense will do a 180 and actually put up at least 180 yards.

I still think the whole "line-up-Eaves-to-blast-punt-returner-in-hopes-of-recovering-a-fumble-in-position-for-an-easy-FG-or-TD" offensive gameplan might be a valid strategy here. Eaves and Heagle on punt coverage, dude catches the ball, BLAMO! Easy pickup into the endzone.

My son, home for Thanksgiving, says:

NDSU 20
RMU 10

I say:

NDSU 2
RMU 0

My faith obviously lies with Hazelton's defense and not with Vigen's offense, especially against a 3-4.

Bison make a statement. O-line totally dominates them. Our defense is by far the best they will have played against. A 30 or whatever scholly team does not come into the FFD and win.

Bison roll them up.

38-3

Seems like if you expect a low-scoring game, you get a high-scoring game (and vice versa) so...

Score:

NDSU 79
Robert Morris 77

Highlights:

• 17 Overtimes
• 2000 total yards of offense with RMU having a slight edge in total yards (1200 vs 800)
• NDSU does not convert the 2-point try on their last TD, RMU scores a TD to tie, but the Bison win when Gratzek scoops up the RMU RB and carries him all the way to the Bison endzone before spiking him*.

Take it to the bank!

* Forward progress, schmorward progress... I'm a prognosticator not a rule book.

Highlights:

• 2000 total yards of offense with RMU having a slight edge in total yards (1200 vs 800)
• NDSU misses the extra point on their last TD, RMU scores there own TD to tie, but the Bison win by blocking the RMU XP and returning it for two points.

Take it to the bank!

I think you have to go for 2 in the 17th overtime, so it wouldn't be a blocked extra point

Wait! What!?!?

I thought that was only for overtimes 3 through 15... bah, I'll edit my post.
