Sure has been quiet, any thoughts on todays game?
-
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.
-
Impressive first drive. Up 8-0
-
Mixed it up pretty well, glad that false start did not haunt us
-
Seems like a lot of young qb's in this league
-
Great hands on that int
-
I don’t think the qb ever saw the LB hiding behind the OL
-
Nice job by the D
-
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
-
need to punch this one in
-
Nice and much needed win
-
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.

We are going to be really good in the coming years. We have an excellent coach and staff. They are building a program that will compete for national championships. They are building a team that competes for 60 minutes. They have focused on on the offensive and defensive lines. There are something like 27 freshman on defense and they are playing with the best in the country and could have won some of those games. They are building a run first offense and need some help at WR. We are a time of possession team with a fantastic defense and very good running offense. Young QB's will get better and they will get talent at WR.
The kids aee prepared and appear to be playing for each other. Only a matter of time. Promising future. Excellent choice in a coach and staff. We will be a pain in the ass for everyone. I love this style of play. Old school, physical, run first defensive team right now. The future is bright and I have confidence that we will be more explosive on offense once we get some experience and some more talent at WR. Great game.

Congrats to DP, staff and players. Good win.
-
Things look good for our future. DP has a system that players want to play in and they are allowed to make a mistake and not get benched and or called out publicly. Number 8 is the real deal at running back. His speed and stop and start and change direction allows him to be successful even when the blocking at the point of attack is not there. We need to find a few more like him at other positions that are game changers at the position. Recruiting during the off season will be crucial and our play so far should enhance our ability to get transfers to come in and raise our level of play. And our young assistants on the way up are a better fit for us than older assistants on the way down that we have had in the past, especially under Coach Wolford. Hopeful for our last 3 games, even this Saturday with North Dakota.
I understand the game Saturday is a game of the week for the conference and will not be carried on local TV. Will it be televised nationally or just available on ESPN+ or ESPN3?

good win penguins! we put your next opponent in their grave, all you gotta do it throw the dirt on them.
Plus physical ball and keep slamming their nose guard, thats the weak link.
-
Run the ball, pass when necessary and play good defense. sounds like the 90's. Go Penguins!!!!

If we played you now it would be a closer game. The OL has come a long way in a few games. We still need help at WR and more playing experience for the QB's but we are legit at this point. We have a chance to win any game against any opponent now. I was surprised by the beat down you guys put on them, but I am also aware of the bad blood between NSDU and UND so perhaps not as surprising. That was an important win for you guys.
