Best player I watched this season was...

[Redbird Recon]

(not on your team)

David Johnson from Northern Iowa. The back's combo of speed, size and strength is a rarity at the FCS level. His kickoff return for a TD against Illinois State was the single most deflating play the Redbirds dealt with all season.

How about you?

[danefan]

RJ Harris from UNH. Man among boys.

[ST_Lawson]

Actually....same here (UNI's David Johnson).

Dude ran for 146 yards and 2 TDs on us (and 65 yards on two kickoff returns).
Nobody ran for that many yards against us this year....not Coprich...not Zenner...not even Wisconsin's Melvin Gordon.

Only DJ.

[tomq04]

I was really impressed with Idaho State's receiver Mangum

[centennial]

David Johnson- seems like a SEC RB. NFL here he comes.

[clenz]

Coprich from isur

[jmufan999]

i don't remember the Maryland game, but as far as FCS players, it's John Robertson of Nova. he delivered exactly what i had seen in previous years. unbelievable athleticism. any team that has trouble containing mobile QB's is going to get CRUSHED by Nova. you need lots of discipline and he makes excellent decisions. doesn't force anything, seems to be a true leader. heck of a player.

[MTfan4life]

Jake Bleskin...oh, not on my team? Ok, not him. Chris Brown from Cal Poly ran the option as well as any I've seen in a while. Also, I've never seen a quarterback rack up so many carries in a season without getting knocked out of a game. He had 39 carries one game. Receiver DeAndre Carter from Sacramento State was also another quality athlete of the guys I saw play. Explosive player. Every one would know who he was if he played at a school like Montana. Same goes for his seasoned quarterback, Garrett Safron.

[FargoBison]

David Johnson...he was also the best FCS player I watched last year.

[Gil Dobie]

David Johnson and Vernon Adams

[UNIFanSince1983]

Marshaun Coprich

[Nickels]

Chris Bonner - Colorado State-Pueblo QB :D

[veinup]

i'll say Kyle Emanuel.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

David Johnson of UNI

Xavier Williams of UNI was also very good.

Both are playing on Sundays next year IMO.

[FordhamFan]

John Robertson here..no doubt about it.

[BucBisonAtLarge]

Lafayette's RB, Ross Scheuerman

[Sammy94]

DE - PJ Hall

[Fordham]

John Robertson, Villanova

[Franks Tanks]

Chase Edmunds from Fordham

[Bisonator]

David Johnson

[Skycop27]

For UNH.....At WR.......Number 15............. RRRRRRRRR JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ Harris !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Only DJ.

Zenner only played about 2.5 quarters against WIU and had 132 yards on 17 carries for 2 TD's and another TD on a 40 yard catch.

I'm not disagreeing with your thoughts on Johnson, but Zenner lit you guys up too.

[IBleedYellow]

Screw Xavier Williams. Probably beat NDSU by himself that day and gave UNI the fire they needed with his plays.

[BisonFan02]

Yeah.....gimme Xavier Williams from UNI....not necessarily stats, but he dominated the middle and occupied all of the gaps....brutal.

[UNIFanSince1983]

Zenner only played about 2.5 quarters against WIU and had 132 yards on 17 carries for 2 TD's and another TD on a 40 yard catch.

I'm not disagreeing with your thoughts on Johnson, but Zenner lit you guys up too.

He wasn't really lying when he said that nobody ran for that much xpeacex

This is true...they're both great RBs (although I didn't personally "see" Zenner, since the game was played at your place). They both completely blew away the minuscule numbers Melvin Gordon was able to put together against us (and no...I don't think I'm ever going to let that one die).

It would be a travesty if he doesn't win the Buchanan award.

Dewey

[HailSzczur]

Player who played the best against us:
Tre McBride- William and Mary:
11 catches/209 yds/2 TD

[Twentysix]

David Johnson, the kid deserves some snaps in the BCS championship game. xlolx

Seriously though, he is really good.

[Panther-State]

I shudder to think what DJ would do if he wasn't touched in the backfield on nearly every play. Seriously. Our previous rushing leaders had NFL talent blocking for them and offenses that mixed things up. DJ has had a porous line for all 4 years and still blew past those records. I don't want to see him leave

[unigriff]

It'd be a travesty if DJ isn't a first team all-american. With what he has done this year without a line and finally got the coach's mindset right to oh...give me the damn ball and we'll start winning. He'd probably win the Payton had the coaches figured that **** out on day one this year.

[unigriff]

to be honest..I've seen him 4 times this year play...reminds me of a some Kurt Warner guy...Perish at Indiana State. Dude is big, accurate and a playmaker. If he only had the a better team around him. i'd take him over our passing QB in a heartbeat.

[344Johnson]

David Johnson of UNI

Xavier Williams of UNI was also very good.

Both are playing on Sundays next year IMO.

These guys.

David Johnson is scary.

Williams is scary.

[citdog]

Kyle Emanuel

[THE HERD]

Not on our team DJ and Xavier Williams. On our team Kyle Emanuel....dude is playing possessed this year! He will be the Buck Buchanan award winner if there is any sanity in this world. Only other player I would accept for The Buck is Xavier Williams, but he won't win because he does not have the flashy stats. Both these guys are game changers though the offense has to game plan against them essentially.

[kalm]

Dakota Prukop and Madison Mangum. Both sophomores too. They'll be fun to watch going forward.

That and a decent QB. Tough to put up the numbers he does with 8 in the box all the time. Get it to him in space and watch out.

DJ is just a great all around back. Big, physical, fast, great hands and vision.

[Daytripper]

Chris Bonner - Colorado State-Pueblo QB :D

^^^This^^^ :(

[Bison56]

I am also going with DJ the guy makes it look easy when he has the ball. He is the best all around back I have seen in awhile.

[ur2k]

Vad Lee had the best performance against us.

I was really surprised by John Robertson's lack of arm strength when he played us, I don't know if that was just an aberration of a game.

[Winindy]

Veron Adams Jr. or Kyle Emanuel. I would probably lean towards Emanuel. All the tackles for loss, sure. All the sacks, yep. But running down Zach Zenner 30 yards down field from the opposite end was pretty awesome.

[Grizalltheway]

[Silenoz]

Brown, Kupp, Emmanuel, take your pick.

[smallcollegefbfan]

Chris Bonner - Colorado State-Pueblo QB :D

LOL. If serious, you haven't seen any good players then. He has no arm. Zero shot he makes it in the NFL.

[smallcollegefbfan]

Tough question for me. Kyle Emanuel, David Johnson, RJ Harris, John Robertson, Nick Boyle, and Vernon Adams are all worthy of a mention. Coprich would be close at the top of my 2nd tier of names.

[kalm]

Brown, Kupp, Emmanuel, take your pick.

Kupp is the best WR I've ever seen carrying the football, and we've had quite a few great ones here. He doesn't look massive but he is an extremely physical runner.

Agreed - he looked really bad against UR. He's not even close to the best player Richmond fans watched this season.

[Theee Catrabbit]

I watched Zenner all year, and I saw all those other players as well.

But Jake Weineke as a RS Freshman, broke Randy Moss' Freshman receiveing record(yes, that Randy Moss) 1318 yds and 15 TD's average of 109 yds a game and Jerry Rice Candidate. What shocks me the most about this? He did it mostly with a backup QB all season. He was just damn fun to watch.

Kupp had 1691 last year.

[PantherRob82]

David Johnson hands down.

Zenner wasn't a big factor in Cedar Falls. Illinois State's RB is the only other player that comes to mind. He ran well against us.

[Cleets]

[Sycamore62]

I thought the opposite but DJ was regularly getting first contact in the backfield and SDSU's pass game was a real problem for us

[Kemo]

Kupp had 1691 last year.

I believe that was including playoffs, correct?

Kupp has been really impressive every time I've watched EWU play.

[REALBird]

David Johnson of UNI

Xavier Williams of UNI was also very good.

Both are playing on Sundays next year IMO.

Ditto on both. Game Changers!

[Theee Catrabbit]

Kupp had 1691 last year.

Oh as a RS freshman? No. With a backup QB? No. As the 2nd receiver on the team? No. Sorry I have not seen Kupp play this year. The thread also says Best Player I Watched This Season.......not last year or someone else saw them and is trying to one up it. Otherwise ZZ had over 2000 yards last year.....so....if we are going back in time..... DJ really didn't do **** (78 yds and 43 receiving)when the Jacks played UNI, he had one or two good plays, but they were nothing miraculous. I just take everyone else's hype about him at their word. If that was regular season for Kupp, very impressive, if that includes playoffs....well Jake still has a game or two left......and at least one of those is against a very stout Big Sky defense......

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Nova's Robertson and Lafayette's Ross Sheuerman

[ngineer]

Lafayette's RB, Ross Scheuerman

+1 I second this. When he was healthy he had the best combination of power, speed and receiving hands of any offensive player.

[Redbird Recon]

The thread also says Best Player I Watched This Season.
The thread also asked for you not to be a homer.

Also, Zenner's performance against UNI left a lot to be desired as well. (80 yards, 2.8 ypc & 26 receiving yards)

[lionsrking2]

Outside of Bryan Bennett when he's 100% healthy, the best player I saw all year is Devante Scott. He's as good as there is in the country, especially run-after-catch. If we threw the ball as much as some other teams, he would have close to 2,000 yards receiving. He's a big reason why we lead the nation in yards per completion. Best player on an opposing team was Paul McRoberts of SEMO. He got hurt at the tail end of our game and missed a bunch of games.

Cool it a little. You stated that Weineke broke Randy Moss's freshman record for receiving yards. However, Moss doesn't have the record any more. Yes, Cooper Kupp was a freshman last season when he broke the record for receiving yards as a freshman. That's all Kalm was saying. He wasn't trying to say Kupp was better. He was just pointing out that Moss doesn't have the record anymore because Kupp reset it last season. Weineke will need to reach 1691 yards to break the record.

Because ZZ looked great against uni...oh,wait he didn't. He never did in his career. How did he do in his career vs ndsu. How did dj do in those games?

DJ had 78 yards on 9 carries vs sdsu.... ZZ had 80 on 26.

Yeah...this. I wasn't trying to take anything away from Weineke, but Kupp had 1378 in the regular season. Kupp also broke Moss's consecutive games with a TD record last year. I wonder where Thee got the stat that Weineke broke Moss's record. National records are important to kids so you better get them ****ing right or else you look like a gigantic douche.

Don't worry when SDSU has a great player they don't think there is any possibility there is a player that could be better than that player. They will tell you to the ends of the earth that ZZ is better than DJ, however, if you read the posts from every other Valley fan who didn't go homer they said DJ was the best player they saw this year.

[Sandlapper Spike]

The best player (and performance) I saw in person this season was Charlotte wideout Austin Duke. We could not cover him. Judging from the rest of his season, nobody else could either.

You may want to re-check that.

Anyway, I'll say the ISU WR Mangum and the Wagon-man from Montana.

Also that monster 330 pound DT Washington had...can't remember his name.

Yes, agree with this. I also thought Prukop was outstanding when he had Johnson to take some of the focus. And I saw Robertson against Syracuse, and was thoroughly impressed. I'd give the nod to him a the best FCS player I've seen this year, but there are a lot of great ones to choose from. Hard to narrow it down...

[Green26]

Kupp, Adams (before he got hurt), and Wagenmann. I saw Emanuel in only one game. He was good, but not great, in that game, in my view. Like Wags, only 3 tackles and no sacks in that game. 3 quarterback hurries. Wags had 1 and a pass break up. Emanuel was playing against the 2 UM rookie tackles, one of whom was a 253 pound true frosh.

[KPSUL]

Victor Ochi Defensive End from Stony Brook. Exceptional quickness and strength, he was disrupting UNH's offense most of the day.

[Gangtackle11]

Not trying to be a homer, but it was John Roberston every game I watched in person or TV. WR McBride for W&M was a beast the game I saw him.

[Red & Black]

Thus, why the OP stipulated a player not on your team. Everyone is going to be familiar with their own players. It'd be easy for me to say Adams, Kupp, et al.

I went to two Delaware games, against JMU and UNH.

VS UNH:
Eric Enderson 5 punts 35.8 average, long of 41.
UNH punter Brad Prasky 3 punts 51.7 average, long of 58.

VS JMU Enderson was much better than JMU's punter, but that dude kicked a ball -14 yards which would be my nominee for worst 2014 kick if the thread gets started.

........jess say'in!

[Jacks02]

Marshaun Coprich from Illinois St. and Kyle Emmanuel from NDSU both were huge factors in two of our losses this year.

I was also impressed with Carson Wentz from NDSU. His passing numbers weren't that great but he just killed us on the ground with big plays.

David Johnson from UNI didn't get many touches, but he definitely showed some speed on his big touchdown run on us.

[Kemo]

For me, the best performance I saw from an individual opponent was Kyle Emmanuel. Complete monster against SDSU, but also did great in the other Bison games I saw.

I will say though, basing an opinion off one game is pretty flawed. I think what marks a good player is consistency and how much an opponent has to game plan for the individual. Using a DE position for example: If a team has to double team the player every play in order to keep him from murdering their QB, isn't he having a major impact on the game even if he doesn't get a sack?

You're right about the consequences; I don't think Delaware cashed-in on the -14 yarder. But I've never seen a punt that was kicked cleanly end up behind where the kicker booted it. It wasn't Enderson though, it was the JMU punter.

Actually....same here (UNI's David Johnson).

Dude ran for 146 yards and 2 TDs on us (and 65 yards on two kickoff returns).
Nobody ran for that many yards against us this year....not Coprich...not Zenner...not even Wisconsin's Melvin Gordon.

Only DJ.

119 yards and 2 TDs.....a good game for most RBs...1 quarter against a playoff-level team for DJ.

Now it's Zenner! xbowx

I'm wondering how many people who said Gus Johnson originally got to see Saturday's game and the matchup between GJ and DJ. Johnson was certainly a capable back and its not hard to imagine how he managed to have as productive a career as he did...but good lord did the "David Johnson" show steal the thunder. 25 total touches for 236 yds and 4 td's (all-purpose; ~ 9.4 yds/touch) in about 3 qtrs of play. DJ get getting into the other side of the field so often he gassed our defense more than SFA did. SFA won TOP and ran 12 more plays than UNI despite not even totally 1/2 the yardage due to David's efficiency. He nearly out-rushed Gus with his first 73 yd TD carry (Gus finished with 82 yds on 20 carries).

All he did on Saturday was 10 TT, 6 TFL, 1 Sack, 1 FF, 1 PBU, 1 Blocked Field Goal Attempt

oh and Gus Johnson (SFA) is a legit running back. Cooper Kupp (EWU) is a damn good receiver..

Wasn't impressed with Gus Johnson.

I did start to wonder what kind if yards DJ, ZZ, Coprich, Crocket, Ruiz, and Baker would put up in the SLC though.

Thought the same thing. I don't think SFA was being heralded for its D coming into the game but I imagine they have to be somewhat decent by SLC standards in order to finish that high in the standings. Those guys didn't stand a chance against DJ. Gus was getting extremely frustrated with his lack of running space and the hits he was taking. I've never seen a running back be so vocal and animated towards the people tackling him for...just tackling him. I think he was more upset with his lack of familiar success than anything UNI players were doing.

He should have been flagged 5 or 6 times for what he was doing post play.

It seems like every time he got hit he was trying to take a swing at a UNI guy

[achrist70]

As a UNI fan I would have to say I was most impressed with was Mike Perish, looking at the teams that beat UNI he is the only one that stick out, no offense to Zach Zenner but I have never really been that impressed with him, and wonder what kind of stats David Johnson would put up in Zenner's role.

I'm an SIU fan and you're a UNi fan but we both have to admit Zenner is one of the best one cut and running backs in the nation---like to see him behind NDSU's OL! He has strength and amazing acceleration.

I don't get why people diss Zenner. I've seen him play better against us (INS) than any back (with the exception of Tevin Coleman of Indiana) in the last 4 years. He is on par with any back in the MVFC, but I will acknowledge that Johnson will get a better shot and has a better chance for success in the NFL. All that said, Kyle Emanual is the best player I've seen this year.

[achrist70]

I think Zenner is a good back, I just personally have never been that impressed with him, of course that probably has to do with the fact that he has only ever averaged like 2.5 yards per carry against UNI

[PMBison]

Have to say David Johnson

[frozennorth]

Zach Zenner is excellent, but DJ has to be on the short list for the best of all time.

Zenner's career average against UNI in 4 games: 3.75 ypc

2011 - 9/36 (he was the back-up RB his RS-FR year) 4 ypc
2012 - 20/112 - 5.6 ypc
2013 - 31/106 - 3.42 ypc
2014 - 29/80 - 2.76 ypc

Total yards: 334
Total carries: 89
Career TDs: 4

UNI has held him down, I assume, better than any team not named NDSU. However, in the two games UNI held him in check the best, SDSU won. Go figure.

PJ Hall - SHSU
Better than any of the ones I previously mentioned.

[bjtheflamesfan]

If you asked me that last week, I would have said Mike Perish from ISUb. After the Villanova game, I say John Robertson. I think he could be getting some pro calls next fall and in 2016

[Twentysix]

David Johnson. Zenner is great, but he has been lackluster over his career in games vs NDSU, so I have to give it to Johnson.

Probably won't, but should win the Rice Award.

Disagree. The way Zenner took that game over on Saturday. I've never seen Johnson do that against the Bison. I do believe that the game should never have been that close but for external factors but the opportunities they were given, it was Zenner driving the bus.

You want to look at career numbers v ndsu.

6 games and he looked good once

You obviously have the blinders on. Did you see the game on Saturday? Zenner pretty much ran the entire offense.

[Bisonator]

ZZ ran extremely hard Saturday. That kid left it all on the field!

That said DJ is still the best player.

[Nova09]

I raise you, a crappy punt: John Hinchen, W&M
Up 3 with under 2 minutes to play he come's up with a 2 yd punt giving us the ball at our own 31 instead of coffin cornering us. Set up the game winning drive.

It did go 16 yards further than Endersons, but situation was far worse.

You really think that was worse than kicking a ball sitting on the turf, resulting in a loss of 20something yards, setting up the game winning fg on a drive which lost yardage, where the punter just falling on the live ball likely would have resulted in no fg and number one overall seed for his team?

Zenner may have been the only one driving the bus, but he only drove it to a tune of 133 yards (on 32 carries). Over the course of his career he has never looked amazing against NDSU.

Zenner looked much better against Montana State, with 5 TDs and 250 yards (on 23 carries).

ISUr, the whole team.

CC's QB Ross was a lot better this year compared to last year. He played a very good game today.

CC will be tough again next year with him coming back.

I watched their last 4 games, other than against NDSU, he didn't have the pop that VA and Robertson seem to have.
