    I dont pay attention to ND HS football at all...but that Fargo South team must've averaged 400 rushing yards a game with Ty & Johannesson? Did they win state?

    I think they won state as Juniors and lost in the playoffs as seniors.

    I think JJ is a heckuva player, but I'm really glad NDSU got Brooks.

    Ty seems to only need 2 steps to reach full speed.

    Ive said since the first few times he has touched the ball earlier in the season, He is a FCS version of Barry Sanders, similar in type of speed and moves. He has five gears, He has great hip turn and leaves defenders grabbing at air. He is a bit light but a great size and speed for FCS. Love to see them get him the ball over the middle and underneath the backers, ala, Ryan Smith. JET Speed!

    This is way, way early, but I've thought since early season there is something special about Ty. I know this is getting carried away, and he is a smaller guy, but he appears to have NFL ability to me.

    I like Dimitri in that jet sweep formation, good to see a #4 do that again! I think Ross Uglem said it best

    That was a pretty special run!

    Yep, its also a fairly safe play to run that allows speed to get outside. I don't care for the quick throw to the sideline, poor risk/reward play. Funny as its the exact play that Case K thru for the vikes yesterday for a pick six. Bison run that way too much this year and somebodys gonna make them pay yet this year if they keep running it on 1st down, predictable out of that formation. Some DC already has that penciled in for the future.

    It nearly went for a pick six, Keenum knocked the ball out of Sweringer's hand and out of bounds at the 2 yard line.
