Yes, but comparing the NDSU talent to Kansas State can't be too far off from comparing Wyoming to other MWC programs IMO.

I'm not saying we'll win every game, but we'll be competitive all season long.

You're right at times the run blocking was not great. Almost looked like our line the first couple plays. The pass blocking was exceptional though. The NDSU team has something that we don't though. A Qb that can make plays with his arm and his feet. When I look at the NDSU o line they do execute very well together. When a guard pulls the backside tackle makes excellent cut blocks, stopping all the backside pursuit. It looks like a very complicated line scheme. Which is probably why our line is behind at the moment.

At least it'll be different than the pass, pass, run, punt we've been watching.

You mean the pass, run, sack, punt?

The best part of this is they are not more talented on paper. They are more talented because of how they were developed and coached. IMO, the only positions NDSU has more talent is on the OLine and QB....I think we are very solid at RB and WR.

Recruiting and talent evaluations are nothing more than a crap shoot at these levels. Kids get a star rating because some website thinks they need one. They figure is anyone is recruiting them at all, they should be worth a star or two.

You get up into the 3+ stars and things are a little different.

Yeah, problem is without a good QB and O-Line, having good WRs and RBs is moot.

It's like having great tires on a car that doesn't run.

Good analogy, Harlow!

Completely understand...but there is still time for these groups to improve. And, I think both will be much better off come kickoff time. We don't need a Brett Smith...just someone to make good decisions and manage the game.

I'm a Cowboys fan through and through, I'll bleed Brown & Gold regardless who we play, who is playing for us and who is at the helm. Sure I'll miss Brett he did things at Wyoming that will probably never be topped. He set MWC Records that could be in tact for a long time to come.

Won't change anything for me, A winning product on the field against teams we play is all I want to see. If it can't be accomplished in the air then I hope it is accomplished on the ground. Right now I'm feeling like the next 2 years of Cowboy Football will be like it was when Glenn was here. I just hope an offense shows up sooner and not later.
