  • Game Week: UNI rd 2 (2017 playoffs)

    Let’s go! No surprises this time. Be ready for the 3-4 or 4-3. Be ready for any running back. Lock up JB on Fountain.

    Weather looks awesome and playoff crowds are some of the best in terms of engagement. Let’s go!

    Or Farley at FB, it sounds like.

    Hopefully the Jacks make this their Rocky II ​moment.

      I'm thinking more Rocky 3 where they got caught up in their own hype, lost, learned some moves from Apollo Creed, then crush their nemesis. I pity the fools.

        On a side note just watched creed for the first time last night.

          That'd be a great storyline for the Jacks defeating the Bison for the championship.

                Another way to look at it: UNI definitely had our number in the early years of D-1. OTOH, since then we've moved up to even or better...re our 3 out of 5 against them since 2013...I think we make it 4 out of 6 on Saturday.

                  I rewatched the Hobo Day is was painful to watch, but if ingnore the special team fumbles and the Defense backed up on their side of the field the defense didn’t look to bad. Clean up some missed tackles and I think we will keep UNI off the field. I think the big thing in this game is that we didn’t get TC going we tried to run the FB and then needed TC to make a play and was just off that day. The pick six was a forced bad read, missed some wide open deep balls that would ve changed the momentum big time instead of the downward spiral that our team fell in. I really think we are not the same team we where then so let’s kick some panther butt.
                  Go Big Go Blue ..... Go Jacks

                    You got more courage than most of us. Never experienced a heart breaker for a Hobo Day game than this years game. Even 1953 where now D3 St John's came to town and pulled an upset. According to the media guide, SDSU went on win the NCC that year. So who knows about Saturday, its indeed winnable.

                      O/U 40 carries for Weymiller?

                      Shutting him down will be key.

                      Hopefully the Jacks can get the ball first and score a TD. Avoid the costly turnovers and stupid penalties.

                      I would be shocked if SDSU played as bad this time around as they did on Hobo Day. The weather will be perfect for December football.

                        The weather looks like it will be a nice day for a football game. I hope to see a good crowd at the game! I will take the under on Weymiller!

                          I would guess SDSU gets the ball first. I think UNI prefers to start on defense...but I could be mistaken. I so wish our games didn't overlap...I'd really like to watch this one.

                            They should just play our game on one of your video boards so when your fans get board from the shellacking of San Diego that will be well under way by the end of the 1st quarter, they can be entertained by our game.

                              I'm really hoping the entertaining part of our game is the offense firing on all cylinders and the D playing tough...
