GDT: @ USD Mangy Dogs

Re: GDT: @ USD Mangy Dogs

Rant: The field goal attempt. I would have been upset even if we kicked it there and didn't run the fake. 4th and 3, just go for it.

Isn't a play called dead after a whistle blows ? I definitely heard a whistle on the TV broadcast before Chase tried to throw the ball. Stig also said they heard it on the sideline. I thought he said that this isn't reviewable, but it seems to me that players might let up if they hear a whistle which likely would affect the play.

Don't care what anybody says. Those last three plays are firable offenses. Waaaay to much could have and nearly did go wrong. Stupefying dumb. It worked. Barely. But in my opinion, it was massive stupidity.

False. It worked exactly as planned. We didn't have to punt the ball. We could have taken a safety on the last play to completely run out the clock if we had to. Anything you can do to prevent giving them the ball back is a good idea. If you run the ball 3 times there's a much greater chance of a fumble.

Any thoughts on the cramping? Yote fans believe it was on purpose. I only saw a couple cramps, but I wasn’t actually at the game.

It was the same player every time so I’m inclined to believe he was actually cramping. And I believe it started happening early in the game.

It seemed worse then it was. Factor in other injuries; Kern, shoulder. Genant, concussion. Workman, shoulder and it seemed like a lot of injuries to go with the 3-4 cramps. Then all of the flags and the pace of the game was really poor.

This would be my conclusion as well. The notion that Stig and staff planned the cramping is pure nonsense.
Every break between plays is a bonus for a emotionally charged game like today. It had to help USD catch their breathe.

My other thoughts are ouch wait, cramp in my hand.........

Lol, must spread rep.

I don't really think the cramps were fake. Even if they were, so what? This is a tried and true method of slowing down a fast paced offense. However, I highly doubt Cox would have wanted to miss that many plays since you have to sit out for at least one play. I didn't watch close enough to see if he was always out one play then came right back in.

Mike Struck said the same on the radio broadcast.

They were booing Workman, who would have collapsed walking off the field if the trainer didn't catch him. It's rich how high some of these USD peeps are holding their heads. Twitter is full of some gold right now.

Taryn was going to go down before that could happen.

Re: GDT: @ USD Mangy Dogs

If you get a cramp early you are screwed the rest of the game. It’s hard to play catch up with fluid and electrolytes when it happens. I believe I saw Cox, Hildahl and possibly Backhous go down with cramps? I can’t believe they would be faking, that seems like sour grapes, but whatever. If that is why they are calling cheaters, so be it.

It is not unusual to be able to relieve the cramp and go back in a few plays later.

I could go on and on about muscle cramps since I get paid to work w/ athletes who suffer from them but I won’t bore you.

Re: GDT: @ USD Mangy Dogs

A few thoughts:

1) I don't think the cramping was intentional

2) If it was, I don't really care.

3) USD didn't lose because of cramps, fake or otherwise

4) 9 straight

5) Their best start to a season in 15+ years resulted in losing 4 out of their last 5, a rape scandal, and possibly missing the playoffs. Best in the "Dakota's" indeed.

6) Jacks Fans sounded really loud on the radio/TV

7) We may see them again in two weeks

8) Terrible facility to watch a football game, in person or otherwise. The sideline closest to the camera was invisible most of the game on tv.

9) Jacks are 20-3 against USD since 1990.

Re: GDT: @ USD Mangy Dogs

Bummer, just got banned from the USD board by calling out one of their administrators for calling our team cheaters. Hmm, sore losers down there...

Lol I got banned for one post that wasn’t much worse than when Zim or Garry mentioned several times how long it’s been since usd has beaten us. But what can you expect from people who had to go to school down there? Poor guys....

Meh...who gives a sh**. Quite the board they got down there with, what, 3 posters? Quick question...who was in office the last time they beat us? Seriously, it's been that long...

I mean, think about this. There are going to be people walking around who can legally smoke and buy lotto tickets who weren’t born the last time usd beat us. That’s awesome. Making it to drinking age would be even better. Or the highway speed limit.

Equally invisible when in the stands! Worst venue in College football. Tear it down, Yesterday. I felt Like I was in Mass with all the stand up sit down BS cus nobody could see up front so they stood and then so did everybody else.
