#3 EWU @ ISU Game Thread

[Screamin_Eagle174]

No, just parity week in the Big Sky. Griz tied with Weber, MSU losing by 1 to UNC...

EDIT: MSU just scored and converted, 35-28 Scats.

Uh, we're leading Sac by 2 TDs.

You weren't at the time of the post, at least according to the ESPN scoretracker.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Hope you enjoyed that minute and a half.

Absolutely!! ISU is down 7 at the half while scoring 24 points in the first half against the number 3 team in the nation, the best team in the conference, a national title contender.

No doubt. ISU is playing very inspired football. To be fair though, we have two safeties out with injury against one of the top passing teams in FCS.

Yeah... your D looks suspect at the moment... Arias 337 yards passing, Finney 50 yards on the ground. Yet, teams often make great adjustments against this ISU team and often pull away.

Did scoretracker also say that we're playing Weber?

My bad, got a lot on my mind and have been drinking.


Although, Weber... Sac, what's the difference?

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Shaq Hill with an amazing over the shoulder TD catch. 38-27 EWU.

337 yards passing at the half??

wow

wow

Did I mention we have a freshman walk-on playing at Safety?

Mediocre defense....

[Screamin_Eagle174]

WOW. That changed quick. ISU was nearing the EWU redzone, before Arias is picked off by LB Ronnie "Thor" Hamlin. Very next play, Quincy Forte runs it 83 yards down the right sideline for a TD. 45-27 Eagles.

[biobengal]

Wow... I've seen this a few times this year.... huge momentum swings going against the Bengals.

ISU intercepted after a long drive.... 1 play goes 83 yards for a touchdown.

Mediocre defense....

But elite offense. NDSU has an elite defense, mediocre offense. I'd love to see them play.

I hope it happens this year. NDSU's offense is alittle better than mediocre. Ground and pound west-coast offense...nothing flashy but effective. Offense averages 430 yards/game and 38 points/game....not bad.

Thanks in large part to the oh-so-difficult OOC games featuring Delaware State and Ferris State. Defense? Bueller?

Delaware State really sucked but Ferris was actually pretty good. They are D2 but they have run for the most yards against the Bison defense this year. They would finish in the upper half of the Valley this year....probably 3rd.... They run the veer out of the pistol set and they are very good at it.

I didn't know Ferris' offense also plays defense.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

KUPP IS A BEAST!!!

54 yard TD, with a hell of a run after the catch.

55-34 Eagles, 9:37 left.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Kupp now with his first 200 yard game, plus another two TDs. If he doesn't win the Rice Award, there's something wrong. He could eclipse the 1000 yard mark yet today, with three full games to go. 13 TDs on the year.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

669 yards of offense for EWU today, 3rd most in school history. 1200 yards total between the teams.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

747 yards of offense for EWU... new school record.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

55-34 final.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Adams with 432 passing, 60 rushing, another 5 TDs to 1 INT, to put him at 35/9 on the year.

[EWURanger]

Not exactly our best effort. I really hope we can get some defensive players healthy for the MSU game, this is starting to get kinda ridiculous.
