    Again you are mistaken, Vet. You are thinking of one of the Jackrabbit cheerleaders, forget which year, could be any year really.

    The coaches are just breaking tendencies to make it harder to game plan against later this season.
    It's OK to not be OK.

    Yes. We struggled with our vanilla offensive. We didnt even attempt a pass downfield that wasnt a broken play. What's concerning is the fact we seem to drop an easy pass too often

    It's still early but Garret Wegner looks like he's restored order in the punting game after 2 years of Koonce skying 38 yard kicks. The silver lining of the inept offense was he punted 5 times today for a 44 yard average. Net was the same since UNA returned 2 punts for -2 yards total. Add that solid punting game to a lights out defense and it's going to be even harder for teams to score on the Bison this year.

    Don't know about the south board issue the north board had a section that was out for a little while. The light shutters are probably controlled by the computer system that got laid to rest 2 weeks ago or the new system hadn't performed as expected and they didn't want to risk another 10-15 minute delay.

    My thoughts were the NA's D was pretty decent. Their oline kept this game firmly in ndsu's control though. Have to wonder if Mess was trying out some new vanilla stuff with the O a bit? Some of it seemed a bit odd and threw the O off a bit. Easton had trouble finding someone open and seemed like he was going into double coverage 70% of the time. Then we threw in a bunch of young players to get their feet wet so not sure we can judge this game as we would a conference blowout game even.

    I'll love to see what happens next week.

    I have no idea what anyone posted, nor do I care because I'm sure it was absolute over reactive drivel. We played a vanilla game because we fucking can. Chill the fuck out. That game was never in question.

    How did that fumble on the punt return get recovered by the Bison when I could swear at least two UNA jumped on it?

    Credit to NAU, they competed and have some very good players. I am not convinced you can build a long-term quality team with JUCO transfers. time after time.

    The Bison defense is good. The had the sack machine working today. Grimsley can tackle.

    #42 is fast, very fast. #5 is fast, very fast. I wish we could have seen him play more than one series.
    I heard their headcoach say on the Culhane show that with the five year transition they find it difficult to recruit against their neighbors Kennesaw St and Jacksonville St who are playoff contenders so they have had to go the JUCO route looking for good players who really just want to get on the field. He specifically said they want to build their team in the near future with high school talent when they can tell the students they will get to play in the playoffs.
