--- Quote from: Wick250 on December 28, 2016, 12:10:14 PM ---Comparing results of the Richmond game with JMU and EWU has very little value because Richmond by the start of the playoffs had endured ridiculous season-ending injuries to 11 starters including their stud quarterback.  They might have been healthy when they played JMU.

I fully expect JMU to be at full strength on their offensive line.  But if they must play without their tackle who was out against NDSU and without their center who was injured during the NDSU game, I like our chances at controlling the trenches. 

Our fate will probably rest with our offensive line.  These guys rolled up over 200 yards on the ground against at least three teams (UNI, Jacksonville State, Wofford) that were, at the time, giving up less than 100 rushing yards.

Yep, exactly that.  Also, for a team who has come on late I'd expect you all to realize that the Richmond game was a turning point for our team.  The results thereafter are a way better sample of who our team really is. 

Our DLine and LB corps held NDSU's run game in check, so I think we will be able to do the same to you all.  We're really lucky that if you stack the box our QB and WRs can make you pay and if you decide to cover the pass our RB and even QB if needed can move the chains on the ground. 

Even if we weren't at full strength on our OLine, is your DLine that much better than NDSU's?  Because even down our center and right tackle we were able to make big plays.

We don't stack the box and usually only rush 4. LB and DB attack on runs, but are susceptible to getting it thrown over their heads.

That's bad news for you guys then, as our team is excellent at throwing the deep ball.  Schor has so many different weapons to throw to as well.

Eastern Washington thought the same.

well, they did put up 38 points on you.

we've given up more than 24 points 3 times this year.

to North Carolina.
to Richmond.
and to UNH when we led 42-10 going into the 4th quarter and they recovered some onside kicks and made the score look a lot more respectable than the game really was.

Purple Reign:
 Looking at the game stats of YSU vs NDSU, YSU looked to have out played NDSU, BUT LOST 24-3. YSU was down 17-0 after the first quarter. Were turnovers the difference in the game?  YSU had five more first downs and 11:36 TOP advantage.Seven receivers caught passes. But only gained 92 yards on the ground while NDSU had 240 yards rushing.

Yes.  Turnovers were a problem.  New Qb hadn't played or practiced all year.  He was going to transfer.  He was only making safe throws after he turned it over.  He is better now that he has had some games under his belt
