One thought. We win today. I today we put it all together. Clean up some special teams. Defense continues to play well. O Line continues to gel.

In 2019, South Dakota put up 56 points against a Pelini team that had flat out quit on the season. I certainly don't expect that today. This is the first time this winter that we are walking on to the field and not facing a serious handicap in talent. This should be the day when the hard work of the players and coaches pays off.

I don’t think the qb ever saw the LB hiding behind the OL

Our front 7 is doing a great job pressuring their QB but geez SDUs pass protection looks bad

Wow SD really blew that last drive, running with no TO left and then crossing the line on the last pass

Great to see some improvement.  Wasn't sure there would be a win until next fall.  Give the coaches props.

300+ yards rushing; giving up practically nothing on the ground. Who could complain about that? In fairness, South Dakota is a finesse team completely out of place in the rugged, physical MVFC. Next week will be interesting and an important step in the evolution of our team.  Last I checked, NDSU was well ahead of their overrated in state rival. I am now starting to think that winning out is quite feasible.  But, of course, one week at a time.
