    Don’t disagree at all. In fact I’ll be surprised if we beat the rabbits.

    UNI hasn't passed effectively all year.

    If Will McElvain, the season starter plays (he was out with Covid), we won't have much of a threat. He has been very inaccurate downfield. He tortured Iowa State two years ago with his clever running (like getting 17 on 3rd and 16 situations).

    If Justin Fomby, the backup, there will be more of a passing threat. He wasn't very effective in his first game, but to be fair, they had something like 24 hours to get him ready.

    If I'm head coach for UNI, I would decide if I thought we would be most effective on the ground or in the air, then pick the QB accordingly. However, if history is any indicator, Farley will go with his season starter and try to force his gameplan regardless of where you might be the most likely to be vulnerable. Expect McElvain, a grind-it-out game, hopes for turnovers, and hopes for a last minute UNI score. That's the best, most-likely scenario. Farley hasn't coached a wide open offensive game all season.

    They have an electric big play receiver which when playing it against a team like NDSU with it anemic offense is dangerous because it only takes one play to put seven on the board. If they're successful in hitting him a couple times my question is can our offense keep up. High scoring for our offense is 20 plus points.

    UNI is more likely to move the ball on defense (turnovers) than offense! I could see offensive and turnover return yardage being about even. Hopefully not both in single digits!

    If we had kept playing games I may have agreed with you. With both of us being off for so long who the hell knows. It’s a crapshoot.

    I actually think the opposite... we were improving, and some time off hurts us more, I think. Could be wrong and could be convinced otherwise.
