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

[Cloned4Life]

So we should spend $10s of millions to give the press a better spot....for aesthetics.

Seems like a great use of money.

I would love to see how much all the press box size queens have donated to the build a bigger press box fund... combined. My guess is $0.

I’ve donated $0 to press box funds (or whatever the f*ck you’re referring to by that comment) but will happily and correctly continue to b*tch about our small time G5-ass dinky press box. And yeah, aesthetics. Don’t get me started on our cheap as sh*t looking erector set light contraptions.

Worse yet? Our overall play today. Really disappointing game overall. Some fun plays for sure, a lot of “meh” and unfortunately a lot of ugly too.

 

[alarson]

Well....1 of 3 ways to take this.

1........ND is better than advertised
2........just another typical Matt Campbell Saturday in September
3........ISU isn't that good.


I think it's #2.

Yeah, it will probably be #2. Doesn't give me a lot of hope for next week. But will likely have wins in October/November

Fastest start and slowest finish in school history?

 

[MugNight]

Quiet day for Brahmer. Kept him under wraps I think

 

[Thomasrickj]

Offense is good but playcalling is inconsistent. If something works, why do our coordinators change things up? We could have 35 or 42 if playcalling was not conservative and sorry between our first and second scores.

Let's see a long FG

Pretty easy to do when the defense can’t get off the field.

 

[CloniesForLife]

3rd and 8 and we run. Lol Campbell just trolling now

Yoooooooo go outside and have a beer. Hug your kids or something. Not worth punching some drywall

Defense has looked suspect, but missing a couple of our best defenders doesnt help. Its not like we have a ton of 4 and 5 stars waiting to come in. (do we have any?)

Offense looks decent. Not overpowering but has done well.

Its the first game, remember we always start slow.

I dont think anyone here took us to beat the spread today. Which was 27-30 depending on where you look.

I miss my season tickets, cuz game day threads really are a downer.

 

[madguy30]

i owe my buddy @madguy30 an apology

but I’d take more worries away from this game than anything

I'm still guessing 7-8 wins.

 

[CysRage]

Trying to draw ND offsides just for it to still be 4th and 1? What?

Idk man, I had some late nights in the dorms like that

 

[keepngoal]

fourth time TE covered up and a run play.

 

[mitchforcy]

Not making excuses for defense, but at least part of this is North Dakota being EXTREMELY happy to take what we give them and absolutely nothing more.

Nah. Getting pushed around like this is highly concerning.

 

[xboxfever]

That has never worked once for you Campbell. Stop trying to get the other team to jump. It doesn’t work and you come out making it obvious you aren’t running a play.

 

[Spartanantler]

Just go for it jesus

 

[NebrClone]

Typical CMC game 20 points under everyone's projections.

 

[NWICY]

Yep, we are right on track for a CMC September. Team comes out in the opener and struggles in a W. We play Iowa at their own game and lose in the margins. Then in week 3 it will all click and we will hang like 50 on Arky St. Team is then competitive in all our league games, wins 5 or 6. Finally, show up to the bowl game looking like we skipped any sort of bowl prep. On to hoops.

I mean I can't argue with that analysis

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

Almost allowing 200 yards rushing to ND is not encouraging
