The Defense

[ysufan0505]

All you have to do is go back the last 4 years and see our losses late in the season. Go ahead and look at how many points our offense has scored in the 2nd half of those games. Yeah, it's frightening. Facts are there, people just seem to ignore them and keep Monty up on their little high pedestal.

+1 ^^

Since we are stating facts, here are a couple more. Monty is our guy and that will not change this year.

[IAA Fan]

Again I will point out how many points we scored in the first half & we failed to win games. In any case I am not changing my mind, that is what being a fan is all about. You two (3) go on forever, the same stuff that you point the finger at other posters for. Give it a rest. Move on to our bad special teams and the short field we gave USD all game. Also our inability to stop the run. without bringing in the secondary. We face a real QB this week.

  Nope!! ^^ Bad offense and turnovers = short field for USD    Last I checked the run is stopped good enough  Also we face a real defense this week.

Can't argue with that.

[YSUFB93]

Broken record. He is the OC ...deal with it. I think he is fantastic. There is unquestionably no other team, at the I-AA/FCS level with this high-end caliber of OC.

Start talking constructive criticisms of the offense:

1. Wells has been less than stellar and may never be any better.
2. O line is just too inexperienced (and lacks depth).
3. We do not have a DI big back ...sorry, but a TE is a TE is a TE. I liked the two-back look today, but not certain if we have enough beef for the xDSU's, UNI, and SIU.

Broken record, he sucks and has the worst track record in 1AA. the team isn't making the playoffs with Montgomery, thats a proven fact. hes not a guy you win football games. theres a reason he doesn't have an NC ring on his hand and never will, he's not anywhere smart enough or just flat out good enough.

[YSU_Penguins17]

New coach, same old dumb mistakes to lose games. We probably won't win more than 3 games this season.

[YSU_Penguins17]

This is why this bum got fired from Nebraska, he couldn't win the big one. This program is done, it's broken and won't win again.

[ucfpengbuck]

YSU played good enough to win.   Needed tds instead of fg on a few drives.  Give ISU credit and there QB is a great athlete.

[YSU_Penguins17]

There's a reason fans don't show, this team doesn't win and has not given them a reason to believe we will start making winning plays.

[SoupCity]

Agreed!!  But this coaching staff deserves their shot.  Another BIG game next Saturday.  And SDSU has 1 loss as well.

YSU got efffed up the a$$ by the refs

The ISU fake punt was gutsy and a turning point.
