Everyone seems to miss a simple fact that one guy ran and passed for 440 yards! That is a defensive coordinators fault!

I don't think anyone misses that fact. But the Fact of the matter is that despite how poorly the defense played, they kept SDSU out of the endzone on 3 out of their last 4 possessions and what did the offense do with those 3 stops? One first down and 11 plays. If the offense puts together any type of drive in the fourth quarter, SDSU doesn't get a fourth possession to win the game.
The last five offensive possessions..
Fumble - 2 plays
Punt - 6 plays
Punt - 3 plays
Punt - 5 plays
Punt - 3 plays
Yeah the defense was horrible, but the offense was just as putrid.
They didn't give up a lot of points but they also didn't have a lot of possessions.
We don't control our own destiny to win the conference. SDSU does. But I do think we control our own destiny getting a 1 or 2 seed. Our resume on paper is still the best with Iowa win and wins over ranked teams and a last second loss to a really good sdsu team. Even if sdsu wins the conference and if we win out, we get a 1 or 2 seed. Fortunately a conference Championship gives you an auto bid but not an auto seed. See Southern Utah of last year
Yep. Coaches will figure it out. But they better figure out the QB draw quickly or the UNI QB will run for 500 yards
First half and first drive of the 2nd half, our offense won the game. After the fumble they completely sucked shit They also got our defense tired
Defense was OK at times and faced a team that went for it on 4th down pretty much every single time. Bad combo when you're offense sucks late in the game. I still can't believe they took that long to adjust to the qb draws. I like how we didn't give up deep balls but the middle was way too soft and we needed some well timed blitzes which never came

Didnt get to see much of the game but SDSU is pretty good offensively. Put up 41 on TCU? They have a lot of threats. There are some deficiencies on defense but I remember a lot we needed to work on after the USD loss last season. Have to get it done though. We have played a fairly tough schedule so far and it isnt far from over yet. @WIU, @UNI, YSU is a tough stretch. I think we bounce back next week, but 0-3/1-2 is very possible in this next stretch. I am fairly confident we can bounce back and get things figured out.
Tackling skills are horrible. A tip for our sub 6-0 175 lb snacks, when a 6-4 250 lb TE is coming at you, you must hit him low or you will get dragged 10 yards.
I saw our guys take his legs out exactly once. For reference watch how NFL Dbacks tackle Gronkowski.

Anyone know why the refs didn't call the SDSU catch a touch down on the targeting play that was reversed. Seemed like a catch...we caught a huge break there.

so they should've won by 3 td's now counting the 2 goal line stalls
Holy shit people how can you fight about if it's the fucking offenses fault or the defenses fault both sucked period as well as clock management... no one person or side of the ball lost that game sdsu walked into our house and kicked our ass ... that is all biatches
Our lines got owned yesterday, which is the problem. The Jacks did a great job of putting our LB in a horrible position, if we play soft the QB took off, if we play the run they hit their TE. We did an ok job of keeping Weinike fairly quiet I thought.
One thing I do like about the Jacks receivers, they never give up on a ball. Weinike had a fade in the end zone that was tipped away and he almost caught it by diving for it.
In all great game plan by the Jacks, they beat us, we have some questions to answer as a team.
