O-line looked great! That run/pass balance was nice to see. Day had a clean pocket most the day and allowed him to really take his time to pick apart that D. Next week will really go to show how good this team is. As long as we clean up stupid mistakes and penalties I think we have a good shot at knocking off NDSU. It was really nice to see such a strong performance after last weeks struggles vs a much lesser opponent.

Just a great day overall yesterday. 8,871 in the house, officially, and that number did not look inflated. Yes, it needs to be higher, and yes, Iowa’s playing Friday night didn’t hurt, but I was pleased that the crowd was energized and got to watch a good product on the field. Tailgating was spectacular in terms of the weather and the friendliness of the fans, and the Alumni Association had a ton of pretty good giveaways. Other than a snoozer of a second half, it was a spectacular homecoming.

As I suspected before the game, and has Jay mock my posts in one of his horrible attempts at humor, YSU wasn’t scoring 3 TDs on this defense.
The first half was superb in every way. The one negative that stood out was Weston dropping a 30 yard TD pass that ended up in a FG rather than a TD. Offensively the third quarter was as rough as it could get. It was clear the first half was in our heads, and combined with play calling going into “get it over” mode we saw some real piss poor effort and worse results. It took what was probably going to be a decent film session today and turned it into hell because they gave the coaches reasons to be pissed off. In a way that could be good as it will keep players heads from potentially growing too much. Especially with NDSU this coming week, and how focused/pissed off their coaches and players will be with how bad they looked in Grand Forks

Shaw's patience and decision-making showed on his touchdown run - just tucked in behind the blockers and waited to something to open up. Williams is a rocket. Hoosman picked up a blitz well in the second quarter that was just enough for Day to run for the first down. Nice to see TEs back in the passing scheme. This receiving corp is special.
I have been as critical of use of TOs and time management as anyone here over the past many seasons - it was nice to see UNI call a time out with a minute+ left in the first half to straighten things out (and then score a TD). It looked like there was confusion among the receivers - they immediately met up with Farley.
Third quarter was really rough offensively, really rough. Some stuff needs to be cleaned up this week by the offense or it will be a long day in Fargo. And 0 for 8 on third down conversions ... ish."Well, that escalated quickly."
