I've looked at all five regular season losses since the start of the 2011 season:
2011 Youngstown State
2012 Indiana State
2015 South Dakota
2016 South Dakota State
2020 South Dakota State
What do they have in common? They were non-named conference home games (not Homecoming, not Harvest Bowl, not Trees Bowls.) Solution: We have to come up with more named games because I think these mid-to-late season unnamed home games might as well be called "The Admiral 'It's a Trap' Ackbowl... and I can't believe that hasn't caught on, btw.

What?? Are you not the person who was saying a few weeks back our recipe for success is running the QB 15-20 times?
Agree it’s still going to be very tough. Talking both teams not ranked top 3-4 like everyone expected so not as much hype. Seeing they’re offense struggle yesterday and our defense yesterday I feel a LOT better about our chances, still about a 50-50 game though.
Maybe chill on the Quincy cool aid--
What I've seen---
good runner---some speed---runs hard in contact
good arm strength----bad reading coverages and getting to 2nd and 3rd progressions---- slow at making decisions
i really doubt that he can START for two years at NDSU-----and highly doubt NFL
character wise---he seems like a great kid and a good teammate
coaches have been trying to help him be successful (win games) by playing to his strengths
Of course I'm excited for the future at QB----COLE PAYTON
