The people that matter know who I am...You are not one of them. If you visit the Fargodome on Saturday morning, I hope people treat you better than you treat people here and your team loses by 20.

With that, have a great day.
You mean like last year when about 4 guys tried to start a fight with me within about 20 seconds of walking into the pretzel place, even though I hadn't said a word? Or the people who let the air nearly 100% out of all 4 of my tires simply because I had UNI plates/window sticker...

Yep.

The only reason those guys backed up at the restaurant is BF02 told them to back the **** off.

Just another example of NDSU media/fans trying to manufacture something that isn't a ****ing story.


How about Wentz not being made available....why no mention of that?

Dude settle down. I just simply asked if UNI does this for all opponents. I just stated that it was interesting nothing more.

Does anyone actually want to talk about the game in 2 days?

I don't give a F what Farley things of NDSU.
I do feel bad for what happened to Clenz in Fargo last year as he has been nothing but nice to me and also the actions by a few NDSU fans make the majority of us obsessed non A hole fans look bad.


How about a football discussion on what about your team worries you or what about the other team that concerns you.
NDSU
1. Redshirt freshman quarterback Easton Sticks ability to read the UNI defense and throw the ball to the correct receiver.
2. The NDSU pass blocking against a very good UNI front. Trying to contain Schult (sp?) and others.
3. I would be surprised if UNI doesn't stack the box and dare Stick to make the throws this would really control the running game.

UNI
1. I was really impressed the first time of how fast the UNI LB'S flowed to the football on run plays. They did an outstanding job of getting through gaps and wreaking havo.
2. A very experienced secondary against a pretty green quarterback. I know he has a fair amount t of games under his belt but this will be the best defense he has seen.
3. The read option. Bailey and Smith have been tearing it up and I am interested to see how NDSU tries to contain the run. Does NDSU go with the standard 4-3 or do they go more of a 4-4 look and let Smith and Champion go man on man on the outside to give more run support. Or does NDSU do what they did against Georgia Southern and have a SS that has no pass responsibilities but is just there to stop the run.

Wait, how did Kolpack get the quotes from Deluca the week of the game? :D I think the key for NDSU is going to be stopping the combo of Bailey/Smith and eliminate big plays in the rushing attack....

Completely agree. Stopping or containing Bailey and Smith have got to be the key to victory for NDSU. Play man on man on the outside and bring everyone else into the box to stop the run. Either that or show the normal look to try and disguis the coverage and run fits for NDSU.

For Saturday I am not feeling overly optimistic. Last time we played NDSU was preparing for 2 different QBs, and may have been taken by surprise by Bailey's running in the 2nd half. The focus will obviously be on taking away the two headed running monster of Bailey and Smith. NDSU has a stout D that has been playing really well as of late.

UNI on the other hand now has to worry about two different styles of QB. NDSU has a much improved OL and their running game has been on point lately. Hopefully we do not get behind early.

I am guessing NDSU wins by about 17. We have been close in Fargo the last two times, but those weren't in the playoffs. Playoffs in Fargo is a different beast obviously.

I don't see that type of margin of victory UNLESS it gets away from UNI early ala Montana. I think Bailey is going to have to use play action when appropriate and throw down field to keep NDSU honest on D. If the Bison are able to "go big" on D with their personnel and put that 7th (maybe even 8th depending on formation) guy in the box, it could be a long day for UNI to run the football.

December 10th, 2015, 12:48 PM
This game concerns me more than almost all of the playoff games in the recent 6 year run....here are my reasons.
1. UNI will not be intimidated by the Fargodome, the crowd or playing the 4 time defending National Champions.
2. They are and have been for a long time, as far as I know, been very tough on defense and with a secondary full of experienced play makers and a big strong front 7 this will be no cake walk.
3. They know how to beat NDSU and have done it before.
4. The run will eventually end. Maybe this week or maybe not but the percentages keep growing against NDSU.

That said I think NDSU wins a slobber knocker defensive struggle as I think UNI defensively contains the NDSU run game and the passing game struggles to continually move the chains.
13-7

I hope the UNI guys are right and NDSU WI s by at least 2 scores.

The last 3 games have been a UNI 20 point win last year and NDSU wins of 1 & 3 points. Not sure why you would feel bad about this game. UNI gives NDSU more trouble then anyone. Mainly because they are so similar. Run the ball, stop the run and don't beat yourself. Should be another great game.

None of those games were in the playoffs. I have seen NDSU play bad in this 4 year run. I have not seen them play bad in the playoffs in this 4 year run. That should be obvious as they haven't lost in the playoffs in 4 years but still.

I just have a feeling we come out a little slow and get behind. Currently, this team isn't really built to come from behind. Get down a couple of scores and that might be all she wrote against a tough team like NDSU.

Now don't get me wrong I am going to be cheering my butt off at home, and hoping this doesn't happen but just have a weird feeling. I do think we are the best equipped team to beat NDSU when we play up to our capabilities. Heck, I think if we play our best we can blow NDSU out. My fear is that we won't play our best this Saturday. Sure hope I am wrong though.

No need for over-analysis, Its a really simple game. Aside from obvious game changers like turnovers and special teams, If NDSU cannot stop UNI from running the ball, they are going to lose the game.

Its really that simple. UNI can't throw the ball well enough to win this type of game if the running game isn't working.

Stop the run, beat UNI.

I am not going to say that UNI is going to win, but I have a good feeling about this game for a couple of reasons. First off Bailey has been the man for the past 7 games, he is not the same QB that played in the second half against in the Fargo dome, is he a great passer, not but he can be effective when called upon to do so. Secondly Tyvis Smith did not play in the first game, which is puzzling to me, I don't think he will run over the Bison but he is the most effective runner that we have, and closet to David Johnson. Finally the secondary has been in place for 8 games, the game at the Fargo Dome was the 1st that those 4 played in those spots, furthermore I would guess that we will see a QB that is not to the caliber that we saw the first game, I don't care which one it is, even if Wentz plays he won't be to the same level that he was.

As long as we don't turn the ball over in bunches and keep our heads I give UNI a great shot.

The guy Bailey reminds me of the most is Jerick McKinnon. Bailey is taller than McKinnon but McKinnon played a lot bigger than he was because he was built like a 5'9" brick ****house. McKinnon was also probably slight faster and the Bison struggled mightily to stop him with a defense full of stalwarts in 2012 allowing him to rush for 168 yards but he had to run it 31 times to get there and his long was only 25. I think Bailey gets his yards but the key will be making sure that if he breaks one it only goes for 15-20 yards instead of 60-70 yards. Make UNI sustain drives and eventually I think the Bison defense will get them behind the chains and force them to punt, go for it 4th down, or kick FGs.

Bailey is deceptively fast...as is Smith

Both are 6'3 and have long strides in the open field. Bailey's 40 time according to the NFLDraftScout page is 4.58 and his HS recruiting service pages list 4.45-4.55

Oh yeah, Bailey is definitely fast, probably one of the fastest guys that will be out there on Saturday but McKinnon was an absolute freak. He ran the 40 in 4.41 at the NFL Combine and everybody runs a good .1-.2 tenths slower than they expect to there.

Agreed.

I've just read a lot of guys from various teams this year down play Bailey's and Smith's speed, then watched them run right past every defender on the field...some times a couple times per game.

The same thing happened with DJ, even though his senior year (draft scouts didn't think he was fast either). Then he got on the field and out ran every one and ran a 4.50 at the combine.

UNIFanSince1983
December 10th, 2015, 03:35 PM
Deceptive speed is true. Both Bailey and Smith are tall and have long strides. This makes it look like they aren't running as fast as they are. Turns out people end up taking bad angles because it doesn't look like they are as fast as they are.

Just look at the first TD DJ had this year for the Cardinals. He ran by everyone on NO's defense, but most of them were taking horrendous angles.

No.

Stop the Bison from running the ball and UNI wins the game. Make ES beat you with his arm. He has been too inconsistent for me to believe that he could beat UNI with his arm. Now will the coaches bring in CW if this happens? Good question.

I would run Bailey/Smith with the read option all game long and make the Bison beat it. Bailey did it in the 1st game with Bison players taking bad angles and getting burned. He is talented enough to carry the UNI offense on his back.


Now the Bison defense needs to slow down the UNI rushing attack. To do this, they will have to bring a safety into the box to help defend the run. CJ and Champion might have to go man to man more often in this game but so be it. If Entz sits back in his base Tampa-2 defense, the Bison will get thumped. Run blitz, stunt the DTs and play gap sound is the only way the Bison will be able to slow down this UNI rushing attack.

Farley has this team peaking at the right time.

I'm looking forward to this game because I love physical football and both teams bring the best out of each other.

This would be the one game that I would love to have a fully healthy Wentz. We definitely need the D to be on their game if we are gonna win this one. Like you said, Stick is great and quick on the ground but the pass attack is what we need to be a big difference and he's been too up and down. I just don't want Wentz to come in rusty or not fully healthy and get re-injured in case we need him in hopefully a later round. I'd rather him be fully healthy before he plays.

I keep going back and forth on which QB I would rather see. Stick scares me because of his mobility. The PSU QB (and some non holding calls) gave us a little trouble. Christion was fairly effective running against us. The read option with SIU Ianotti/Isom and ISUr with Coprich also gave us troubles.

Although then I think well in the late game if it is close do I really want to see Wentz out there again knowing what he can do in that situation?

So which would I rather see? Again both scare me for different reasons. Stick for his running dimension and Wentz for his poise and experience.

Realistically SIU didn't give UNI troubles with the read options. Outside of those two big runs, which were Isom making plays, SIU averaged like 1.7 YPC on the day

This would be the one game that I would love to have a fully healthy Wentz. We definitely need the D to be on their game if we are gonna win this one. Like you said, Stick is great and quick on the ground but the pass attack is what we need to be a big difference and he's been too up and down. I just don't want Wentz to come in rusty or not fully healthy and get re-injured in case we need him in hopefully a later round. I'd rather him be fully healthy before he plays.


CW passed for over 350 and 4 TDs in the first game. Does ES have it in him to do the same thing? Maybe....but if I was the UNI DC, I would put 8 guys in the box to stop the run. The Bison power running with their G scheme is something UNI is built to stop with their physical defense. Now if ES does a lot more read option with the running game then that might have some success against the UNI defense. ES is a talented runner that can make people miss and he is fast. NDSU's WRs are not great so UNI can play man/man on the outside. Hall is good enough to shut down any WR on the Bison roster. Plus the UNI LBs are great at containing the "edge", which NDSU tries to exploit against every team.

Plain and simple: The Bison need to have an effective passing game to win this game. They will not be able to ground and pound for 300 yards rushing.....maybe they can but I don't see it happening. ES needs to play a great game by finding the open guy and getting him the ball. Move the chains and do not turn it over. Throw deep once in a while to keep the defense honest but use the TEs and RBs in the flats.


It will be a great game to watch. Both teams know each other pretty well so it will come down to turnovers and field position. LeCompte needs to play well also.

He said it would go to the bid system for UNI vs Richmond (if that happened to be the match up), but that is untrue. As long as Richmond puts the minimum it would be at Robbins Stadium.

If you are referring to 2013, then I agree.
If you are referring to last night, his hands did make contact with the helmet of the QB, and they seem to flag that most of the time in the NFL.

It was kind of funny seeing him try to run down AP on the next play.

One point: I know most of you all don't like stadiums with a running track.......and the Fargo Dome is a fine facility, but this place, and Jax. State's place, the distance from the sidelines to the stands is too close.....IMO, should be at least 30 feet, Fargo Dome looks like only 20-22 feet.

Interesting concept, we didn't light up the punt returner on a fair catch. Different teams, different cultures

Debatable. Open hand did not look down, ball carrying was indecisive from what I could see.

The Bison are lucky this is only a 3 point game...can't lose the time of possession stat in the second half or the D is going to run out of gas.
