Is Trey Lance's Season the Greatest in Program History?

[OrygunBison]

it would be a SIN if Roehl/NDSU runs Trey on all of those QB draws that we do... like 4-5 a game.

Wrong. That play takes advantage of the defensive weakness, mainly a LB that is not in that area and does not have spy responsibility. It will take a spy to beat Trey's running and then passing plays open up outside or over the top. He is such a threat BECAUSE of his running potential. You cannot take that away, particularly up the middle.

What I would absolutely hate to see is a bunch of outside running plays out of him. He needs to be between the tackles.

we run it WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY too much.
Plus, my point is, Dont get this guy hurt for f*&*ks sake!

There really shouldn't be any reason to rush him as much as we did last year. He's got great weapons with Sproles, Watkins, our TE's and RB's. Let him sling it more this year and run if necessary and cut back on the designed runs.

One reason is that it wins games.

AGREED !

IMO, NDSU ran Trey too much last year, especially in the Natty. I know he had options and made the decision to run for a lot of those. Nevertheless . . .

Totally agree with you ... how is everyone going to feel if gets hurt b/c of running the ball, especially if the coaches run him so often the other team isn't surprised anymore, so can set up for a good smackdown.

plus if you do it 1 or 2 times a game, it might actually be a surprise.. Down at SDSU and UNI the coaches on other sideline are screaming when it's coming

So just keep doing what you did last year.

It seems like running our athletic QBs more late in the season is a very sensible thing that this program has been doing for some time now.

we should just bench him. he might get hurt.

actually we shouldn't dress him.

definitely no contact practice.

maybe sidelines at practice.

maybe he should stay in crib with a binky so nothing bad ever happens.

I agree with Senor El. We need to design plays in a way that takes advantage of our QBs strength. In this case Trey's accuracy and ability to sling 50-60 yard passes, instead of running him every down. We dont want to go back to Tim Polasek days. Dang I miss Coach Messingham.

No crap, we have a ferrari here, lets quit driving him like he's a chrysler lebaron
