NSIC - Week 3 Chat

Yesterday was a popular one for weddings in Mankato. Congrats to your friend!

We drove by the stadium at halftime, I thought about stopping in to see the score but we had a schedule of sorts.. Glad to see MSU get a convincing win.

Here's what needs fixing on the broadcast: The scoreboard operation is pretty terrible so idk if it's a glitch but that needs fixing for sure. It looks amateur and just grab a scorer from a rec hockey league if you need one.

The replays must have a thing that says REPLAY in the corner. Otherwise I have no idea if a play is live or not. Optionally please create a more professional looking score ticker.

The director needs to stop switching cameras in the middle of the play. It's such basic common sense and you don't see it done by ESPN and they have a lot more money/talent.

We are the most well funded athletics department in the conference and getting soundly beat in this area has been such a black spot.

Agree with all that. But it's also easier said than done.

The number one thing to address is a new stadium. Every thing else comes after.

None taken - I totally get it. We've basically started the team from scratch this year. I like a lot of our individual contributors, but there is a ton of inexperience. This week's result stung, though and I'd be lying if I said the thought wasn't somewhere in my head.

That being said, playing god with D2 coaches is not something I'm interested in. They have families and middle-class incomes. It's why I'm more patient with them than with a guy like Harbaugh who'd be just fine if shown the door at Michigan. To explain my position on the fence.

I also think there is more too it than just the coach. Marshall is not a great town for 18-22 y/o's. SMSU has a long way to go as an institution that can be respected like some of the others in the NSIC. Many of our competitors have had twice the time to figure this out compared to us. There's so many variables.

Yeah, I am wondering about that myself. I think some Mustang fans were ready to move on a couple years ago. I tried to give the benefit of the doubt - but I'm not so sure after today.

Brings back memories of the 2019 loss to Bemidji. It's embarrassing.

SWMN FB 28% (including this year), MBB 29% win percentage in NSIC the last three years Crookston FB 3%, MBB 29% win percentage in NSIC the last three years Minot FB 16% (including this year), MBB 35% win percentage in NSIC the last three years I think these schools have accepted who they're, I think they have lifetime deals. SW has a interim AD - who makes the hire then? I think they're here to stay

The assessment of the men's basketball team is beyond hilarious. Even more hilarious is how this gets brought up again after it was already discussed.

Say what you will about the football team, but to imply that Mustang MBB is somehow in the same boat is pretty ridiculous. Yes, Bigler is here to stay - he has a .553 win percentage and far more winning seasons than not. Why would we want him to go anywhere lol

Looks like SMSU is going to wreck me going back-to-back weeks with perfect picks.

So Mustang fans, any chance that Sauter's job is in jeopardy? Seems like the program has been going in the wrong direction for several years now.

Film clip from the BSU-MSU game.

WSC wins 48-0

Wayne matches 2 Sioux Falls teams with butt-kicking of Minot. Wildcats will be a handful for any team on the gridiron. Unfortunately Minot's HC job doesn't appear safe.

Gotta give the Mavs credit, they punched BSU in the nose after the Beavers tied it at 24...... Did I hear correctly, there was over 1000 combined yards in the game?

It's only one loss for the Green, time to regroup and learn from it.

Oops- yes, 24 all. I can't read my own writing. Not quite a thousand yards #19 Mavericks Bounce Back at Home in Win Over Bemidji State - Minnesota State University - Mankato Athletics (msumavericks.com)

Was at the Bob this afternoon for the CSP @ USF game. As Otis already mentioned, the normal wind tunnel of the Bob was definitely a factor for the Golden Bears who don't practice in it every day.

Very happy with the Coo rushing game. A combined 393 yards on the ground, with Reisdorfer going for 160 yards and 3 TDs, and Freeman running for 105 yards. Mullen was solid again, and now has a 147 passer rating over his first three games.

Defense held CSP to -14 yards on the ground. Special teams logged two blocked punts, a turnover on a kickoff, and a safety.

Overall very solid day for the Coo.

BSU took about two minutes to tie the game at 21 in the third quarter. After that the Mavs started to get pressure, BSU receivers dropped the ball and Sleezer started picking up yards. It looked more like previous Mav teams who wore down their opponents.
