Re: Game Week: North Dakota State University
I haven't commented all week, but my thoughts are this. We need to play our best game of the year. IF we are to win, I envision a Montana State type game where we get out to an early lead, go into half with a lead and hang on at the end. I don't have confidence that this team has the mental fortitude to play from behind. That seems counter-intuitive to me, since our offense has the ability to score on any possession in about 40 seconds. We've been down in 2 games, and both of those ended badly. This game is no different than any other game. Stop the run, get off the field when you force third downs, don't turn the ball over. No duh...these things decide just about every football game ever played. We do those 3 things and we have a chance.
I'm most excited to see how our offense performs. I truly believe that if our offense plays to their full capability, there isn't a defense in the FCS that can stop them with the weapons that we have.
