Re: UNI vs NDSU

Wow, what a game!! I'm not here to gloat at all because we could have and probably should have lost that game. I'll just give a few thoughts about the game and be on my way. I thought UNI came out much more ready to play and it couldn't have been more evident than the opening kickoff. To only give up 3 points right there was big. I felt like your D punched us in the mouth a few times from the opening bell and took the crowd out of it early. They forced Brock into some uncomfortable situations for sure. Not ready to say DJ is the greatest, but he can certainly make a guy miss and break some tackles. The 85 yarder and a first down run in the second half he broke tackles from our SS Heagle and that rarely happens. He must have gotten dinged up or something because it seems they went away from him late. Frankly, I thought Marcus Williams was made to look bad on a couple of occasions, and credit that WR (81?) with a couple of nice catches. That pass interference in the end zone looked like a good defensive play. I just think the defender maybe made contact early because the ball was under thrown. I know he was looking back when it got there though, so who knows, we got a break.
On a side note, I was sitting there today thinking about what I would say on here if we had lost. After reading all week that Bison fans never give out credit and always say we gave away the game and you didn't beat us, blah blah blah. I was going to give credit to your team for playing great D, playing composed and disciplined on the road in a hostile environment (no procedure penalties), and forcing turnovers. Great game today and I'd be okay with not having to play you again this year. Not gonna wish you good luck the rest of the way because I want you to lose out, but don't take offense to that. It is what it is.

Not at all trying to argue with you about it because in game speed, I thought it was a good defensive play. Only thing I can think of that happened is contact early because the ball was under thrown and Vraa had to slow up and wait for it.

That's because it wasn't, it was just bad call by the refs

Agreed. I think that was the game, despite the injuries.

Re: UNI vs NDSU

So how about that hands to the face "penalty?" Anybody get a good look at it? Just wondering.

(Drunk) thoughts:

The loss of Farley, and the loss of the game, cannot mean the loss the loss of this season. Have to come out next week with the will to win.

Is Johnson hurt? It didn't seem like anybody knew anything on the broadcast. I said it several times during the game, just give him the ball until his legs fall off.

NDSU broadcasts are terrible. Announcers don't do their homework, no knowledge outside of Fargo.

Does NDSU play "In heaven there is no beer" after games? Because that's...odd....

I ask myself over and over when it will be "our turn" again. When is it going to happen? Lets MAKE it happen!!

I was told by my upstairs "neighbor" to "hold it down" because I was yelling so much at my TV. He routinely yells for no reason at computer games, Iowa football games, Iowa basketball games, Iowa field hockey games, whatever the hell else he yells at, but I yell at one "little" UNI game, and he tells me to keep it down. I almost went up and kicked in his door. I did apologize to the people below me, who were actually pretty cool with it.

Coach Nelson said on the post-game that Johnson has a hip flexor. I don't know what that means for the future.

Re: UNI vs NDSU

All in all, we played really well. There are some things to clean up, especially in the offensive line.


Jake is obviously done, hopefully only for the year. Where do we turn on the inside? Busher? Cutkomp? Do we move Kilfoy up and play Omli?

I like our chances when we see them again, and we will see them again. I think we're the two best teams in the country and I don't think it's particularly close. The pollsters better not screw us over and drop us significantly.

Re: UNI vs NDSU

Cannot win at the #1 ranked team with frickin field goals instead of touchdowns. Could have put this game away earlier.

Exactly. We beat them every way possible except the score. Too bad stats/box score don't reflect in the actual score. We beat them up and down the field. More yards. More firsts, more time of possession--everything. We'll get em next time.

AND...the Bison held EVERY play. We don't hold any. We had injuries. They didn't have any. I know dang well the refs the past two seasons, for all of the games the Bison won, were members of the Bison teamsters. If you take away the holding that Bison did, the non-calls by the refs, the poor spots that we got, we'd have beat them about 37-12. NCAA should be contacted over this. Can we get a petition going?

You understate it.

Terrible, TERRIBLE call. Earlier in the play? Would have had to be holding, if anything.

Re: UNI vs NDSU

Being at the game, I think the refs just stunk period. Regardless of who you were cheering for.

NDSU is tough. We put up a great fight. UNI will be hard for any FCS school to handle this year. Never know what might happen by playoff time.

Re: UNI vs NDSU

Two thoughts. 1 Bohl --- During on field interview after the game not ONE WORD or tip of the hat to the competition. CLASSLESS!!!!!

2. Pass Interference???? BULLS---!!!!!! Anyone else find it strange that they showed a replay of just about every other call but that one?

WCF Courier had pictures of the game and one was the pass interference penalty. I know it's still but the penalty should have been on the NDSU player.

I completely understand and disagree with the call, but it could be worse (ex. Iowa State vs. Texas).

the only thing that makes the ISU call worse is that they had replay review available.

Hip Flexors are an annoying injury, but nothing horrible. Normally they just take time and stretching
