Re: NDSU “Scouting Report”
While the rest of the family watches A Christmas Story for the 383rd time, put this on the laptop. It's a condensed version of the NDSU-USD game which was the game that gave us the number 1 seed. No sound-just the plays.

My opinion is Entz coaching style probably set North Dakota state back couple years. Polasek is likable and pretty sharpLong Time Cat wrote: ↑Tue Dec 24, 2024 8:36 amPolasek way easier to like than Entz and it’s not even close. Still hope we crush them on the 6th.

Couldn’t agree more.
With success comes attention, with attention comes cockiness, with cockiness comes arrogance, with arrogance comes rudeness...and they wonder why I hate the Griz ! FTG

Re: NDSU “Scouting Report”
Prior to the USD game, Tommy had run the ball about 80 times. That's only 20 more than Coleson Coon. They held back all season. This is Tommy's last game, so if he has to run it 20 times, then that's what he'll do. A nice little bonus is that there won't be much of that on this year's tape.Bobcat4Ever wrote: ↑Sun Dec 22, 2024 5:38 pmThere is a reason for Tommy to hold back — he got hurt against NDSU in the first quarter in Frisco and our chances of winning went to zero. He’s a special weapon and we need him on the field, running or not. No one else can make that offense go like Tommy. So, Tommy, be smart. You’ve learned a lot, Mellott.![]()
"What's our job? Gettin the offense the ball! How we gonna do it? By any means necessary!"

As good as any place to post this I suppose.
The State of Montana is Bobcat country.
missoula....still just 20 miles from Montana.

I didn’t watch the whole thing, but a few things stuck out to me.BelgradeBobcat wrote: ↑Wed Dec 25, 2024 11:49 amWhile the rest of the family watches A Christmas Story for the 383rd time, put this on the laptop. It's a condensed version of the NDSU-USD game which was the game that gave us the number 1 seed. No sound-just the plays.
When NDSU brings pressure, USD picks it up VERY well. I can see Rohan playing a critical role there in the backfield giving Tommy that extra 1-2 seconds when the blitz is coming.
USD got two coverage sacks on their first defensive series. That is the kind of start we need. Throughout the first half USD brings pressure but even when NDSU gets the ball to a receiver, USD is in position to stop the play for 2-3 yards. That comes down to solid line backing, so Bobby needs to get Neil Daly coached up for this one.
NDSU is absolutely susceptible to big pass plays. Taco and Ty should both have opportunities for a good outing in Frisco.
USD RB corps might be a bit more physical with the way they run, but we certainly have the players to attack NDSU between the tackles AND along the edge. I think this is the key to the game for MSU.
Biggest takeaway: MSU just looks better to me. Tommy and co. should be bringing home the natty this time.

The ungulates' tackling was ASS. I hope it's that bad on the 6th.BelgradeBobcat wrote: ↑Wed Dec 25, 2024 11:49 amWhile the rest of the family watches A Christmas Story for the 383rd time, put this on the laptop.

Do I even want to listen to them? Haley brown noses NDSU so much he needs an extra roll of tp to wipe his butt chin from the excess that dribbles down.

Re: NDSU “Scouting Report”
The older I get the more tolerant I get. Seems like I can learn something good everywhere. But I definitely don’t bite hook line and sinker just because they have a national show.
