Of all the things that could be criticized today, missed xp, fumbles...the last thing on my mind was play calling. Hell they even went for it on a 4th. Even though we fumbled.

Well when you run the ball and rip off 60 yards on the first drive then get to the red zone and start passing? Yeah that was a head scratcher. I mean we got what.....3 first downs on 3 plays?
When you have a team on their heels you.keep hammering them.

wow, that was some borrrrring offensive play calling.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZz

30 runs in 1 half????


this guy makes Vigen look like "chuck the pigskin"

Are you advocating Big Fluffy football style of play for NDSU? I hope not. All that high flying offense means jack squat come playoff time against a physical ground and pound team.

[Bison20]

Yea I hate watching our line destroy guys and Bruce run over people. It's so boring to only score 40 points. We should throw it 3 plays then punt. Quit using plays that work and break the other teams will, that's just silly.

[BisoninNWMN]

What a moronic thread.....nothing unusual for lil lakes.

Running game was working....stick with it.

[HerdBot]

I find 7 yards a carry between Bruce and Lance way more exciting than chucking the ball every other play. I actually enjoy watching EWU pass because watching their QB run for his life is exciting.

Ewu 4.5 yards per pass
Ndsu 6.0 yards per rush

TOP: 42:40.

A team simply cannot lose a game possessing the ball for nearly 43 minutes.

I like wins.

Nothing wrong with the game plan for yesterday, but if the Bison offense becomes predictable and shows no downfield threat the 3 and outs will happen too often and that great Bison defense will get worn out. I think the Bison can beat any team in college football if they have the capability to mix in and complete some good mid to deep pass plays.

Desmond Cain. Mvfv newcomer of the year. Just saving him for conference play.

I thought pass protection was pretty rough yesterday. The Rams did a great job run blocking but Stick was getting harrassed pretty good unless the ball was out immediately after he hit his drop. Improve the pass protection a bit and the offensive balance will come.

In a homage to Matthew Berry's "You heard me" here's mine following the first couple games of the year. I think this year NDSU has the best set of pass catching WRs and TEs they've ever had. RJ, Shepherd, Dez Cain, Illies, Jenson, and Wentz are better than any top 6 the Bison have ever thrown out there in terms of receivers. You heard me. Give Stick time and those guys will make great plays for him.

He must have some break away speed....Seems like opponents love to hold that guy. He has been targeted 4 or 5 times and 2 called penalties with a 3rd missed call
