  • Great game guys

    Congrats on the win. I knew it was going to be tough to win. UNI has a very good team and should be considered one of top contenders for the NC.

    We have a pretty solid team still, just the main question that entered the season still remains. The QB. It's only his second start so I'll try to give him a break. But damn, you can't turn the ball over like we did PLUS have so many stupid stupid penalties and win a lot of games. Much less against a team like UNI.

    I think the biggest stat (other than TOs) was 3rd down converstions:

    SFA - 2-9
    UNI - 9-16

    And also time of possession. That killed us. Our defense did pretty good in the first half, but eventually just got worn down. Being on the field 37 minutes is killer.

    Good luck to you guys this season. I'll be pulling for you. Rennie is a stud and is fun to watch. Maybe I'll make the short trip to see you in Frisco?

    Oh, and can someone come get uniftw off our board. He's embarrassing to college football fans and your fan base.

    Good luck to you guys too the rest of the year. Hope that you go on to be undefeated the rest of the way until we meet you in the playoffs.

    It was a great game to listen to on the radio, wish it would have been televised.

      That is a huge "W" for UNI to get on the road. SFA is very good and their system is a nightmare for opponents. I think when it is all said and done, SFA is going to be our signature win this year that helps propel us. Good luck to SFA the rest of the way.

          I have a feeling SFA will make a repeat appearance in the playoffs...I'm so excited for this win b/c it came against a great team.

            It's going to be very hard to. In my opinion, our only chance is if we can win the conference. Which we definitely can. But the committee wont pick a 2nd place SLC team over a team from the CAA, or even BigSky. Our schedule is kind of screwing us. Starting out with a cupcake, then UNI, then @Baylor, then a transitional FBS school in Texas State. Our offense doesn't get a good chance to get in a real grove before conference really. Gonna be tough. But i'll be ecstatic if we can win conference again. Next year we'll bring back the entire offense again.

              We have the same type of mindset with the playoff committee, but with the expansion who knows. The MVFC can get teams in but we need to start doing what NDSU did last year and get deeper into the playoffs more regularly to earn that respect so it isn't all CAA and Big Sky...and imo MVFC can go toe-to-toe with the Big Sky top to bottom.

                I was impressed by SFA last night. Outside of the QB position they have about as much speed as we do. Us going in to texas and coming away with a win against this team is a big deal. You guys definitely killed yourselves with penalties that stalled out your drives and extended ours.

                  I was impressed watching UNI, in terms of the speed. Rennie is a flash...it was ridiculous to see that SFA wouldn't scheme him.

                  I hope those of you that made the trip enjoyed it, and I wish you guys success through the rest of your season.

                    I listened to the 107.7 streaming radio feed and the play-by-play guy said SFA had more team speed top to bottom. I had no idea what he was basing that statement on.

                      Find out what the other team wants to do, then take it away from them.

                        SFA got crushed 48-0 in less than a three quarter by Baylor in a weather shortened game.

                          And how many "injury" time outs did they have for "cramping"?

                            Not sure, but I'd set the O/U at 46....after all the game was played in that Texas heat that is almost impossible to live in.

                              ...and NOW the NFL is weighing in on the matter:

                              http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slu...fakinginjuries

                              They made a big deal about this during the Patriots game on Sunday. Tom Brady evidently believes that teams are doing this to try and slow him down. Discuss.
