    Default 2017 Game 6 Preview: Youngstown State

    Big challenges on both sides of the line:

    YSU is rushing for 268 ypg and only giving up 124.

    They probably still put their DBs on islands so Shepherd needs a big game.

    Looks very even across the board, but, of course, YSU is at home and NDSU's passing game has been better.

    If the Guins have an Achilles heel it's ther passing game. Their QB does not throw a good ball. He had a half dozen or so poor throws against the Yotes. Other than that they are a damn good football team. Shit gets real next week in Y-town!

    Going to be a slobber knocker. Can't wait for a "Bo knows meltdowns" moment.

    Agreed... I anticipate a "chess match" similar to what we have seen in the past with UNI

    We have great balance on offense...and a defense that really hasn't been tested yet.

    It'll be a tough game...but we'll come out ahead by a touchdown or two.

    If you wore the uniform...you're a champion.

    I'm leaning towards this too. I don't care what our competition has been, we have played with a killer instinct I didn't see last year.


    YSU is still thinking because they made the final last year and we didn't, that means something. Forget how we undressed them in the regular season.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Well, I wonder how much of his imprecision was due to the pressure the Yotes put on him. What did they have, six sacks on him and a ton of hurries. The Bison miss Menard terribly, in my opinion. As I look at the overall statistics the Bison have a grand total of 10 sacks, half by the DL. Maybe I am misreading the stats but after watching all of the games the pass rush is weak, perhaps the only Achilles heal. If you have to blitz a CB like they did in the ISUb game, I think that maybe a sign of desperation. Hope I am wrong.
