*** Official North Dakota vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

Campbell is so lucky he played in the weakest big 12/8 in conference history or else he’d be coaching d2 right now

Shut up.

I played OLine. Watching us in the Campbell era, it looks more to me like a scheme issue than a talent issue. It looks very much like we have all these odd rules on who to block instead of, block the first guy or block the next guy down. It seems we have a lot of guys who are just confused where to go as opposed to not being able to block.

Not necessarily the blocking schemes, but they just showed Sama studying his wristband for what seemed like 5 minutes after the play call came in.

Things really shouldn’t be so complicated that it takes you that long to figure out the play/responsibility.

 

[Thomasrickj]

Our run defense is bad

 

[ScottyP]

Can’t get third down stops

 

[Drew0311]

Dakota should not throw the ball the rest of the game. We can’t stop the run

 

[xboxfever]

And that’s good for another North Dakota third down conversion.

 

[ItsCyence]

That's another North Dakotaaaaaa..... First down

Not defending it. Just saying that a lot has changed from a technique standpoint and scheme rules with RPOs, read option, shotgun etc. I think most people who played would be shocked. A lot of it is really about positioning, angles, holding, and trying to physically get in people's way. As opposed to squaring up, getting low, and just trying dominate and bury your man like in the old days. It's a lot different.

Again, not defending it or saying it's better. It's just a thing now in modern football.

Also noticing on the TV scroll that Fox is already promoting “Big 12 After Dark” with Arizona/Wyoming tonight, lol

 

[Chipper]

Maybe Heacock did retire

The 10 yard cushion may drive me to drink

Getting pushed around by an fcs team

 

[simply1]

Fun week to hear from the 3 offensive linemen on CF and IE

 

[IlliniCy]

We're gonna screw around and get beat.

 

[isucyfan]

Always getting worked by the Hawks early in the season.

Also, did you guys know that the ND QB is from a town of 15 people?

 

[Thomasrickj]

Is our defense just out of shape or this bad? We are going to get eaten alive in the conference if this is our defense.

 

[demoncore1031]

Maybe Heacock did retire

Did or should?

 

[Nor'MidWester]

Hecock is showing none of his cards (he hopes)

 

[xboxfever]

Getting pushed around by an fcs team

An Iowa State tradition.

Does this team have any self respect? They are being bullied by North Dakota.
