Re: GDT: UNI Panthers, Part Deux (Playoff Edition)

Bottom line:
1) UNI wanted it more.
2) SDSU wasn't good enough.

Not with a bang but a whimper.

This team did not overcome adversity on the field once this season, unless you count the Youngstown State game but that was with Gibbs.

Heide is not the answer at QB. Need Gibbs back but this wasn’t a good year. 8-5 and blew so many games.

The offense was just a shell of the group that went toe to toe with Minnesota and NDSU. Unfortunate but reality

This loss kills attendance more than anything. People are tired of being just good. Sorry to say something has tonchange.

Yeah you are.

Gtfo. Make the defense play for 40 minutes. And not try to win a 4th down play at mid field. we played to lose and that's what you got. If you think that's how you win a game why do we even play the offense. Daniel's could get a yard. Simple as that. At least make uni earn it we just gave them the ball.

You’re wrong. There is no way possible I could dumb it down enough for you to understand.

An absolute waste of a seed. That UNI offense is terrible, but we still couldn't use that to our advantage. Injuries hurt, a lot. But that was not a spirited effort on offense. When the wheels fell off, they really fell off. Just a weak effort on O. You should be able to win a game when your D only gives up 13 points. Especially at home.

Re: GDT: UNI Panthers, Part Deux (Playoff Edition)

When you don't go for it from 4th and 1 at midfield, chances are you're going to have to go for it from a worse position later. Turnovers will get the publicity, but cowardly coaching is what frustrated me more.

Let's back off on the personal stuff folks.

Yep. Just reinforces we didn’t deserve to be seeded. Heide didn’t seem to get much better over a month. Missed some open receivers today. O-line was inconsistent all season

The defense held UNI to a 3 and out right after this and we got the ball back in the same spot with a fresh set of downs. There was still 10 minutes left to play in the game at this point and a defense that was playing lights out. At that point in time it was the right call.

Now, when UNI went for it on 4th down, they were another 10 yards farther down the field, only 4 minutes left on the clock. Those are 2 completely different situations.

Re: GDT: UNI Panthers, Part Deux (Playoff Edition)

Disastrous. Wasted a year with a nearly elite defense. The horizontal passing game that is continuously on display in 2 minute drills is inexcusable. Terrible turnovers every single loss. Absolute shame

Re: GDT: UNI Panthers, Part Deux (Playoff Edition)

Maybe next year we will be better or maybe we will have another 8 win season and come up short in big games, its what i would expect at least, we need to get over that hump somehow

There is some truth in what you say.

There is no tradition at SDSU of using the cold late season weather as a 12th (13th, etc.) man against opponents. It certainly didn't start today.
