NAU Run Defense - on fire!

Post by dbackjon »

Limited New Mexico Highlands to minus 7 yards
Limited Southern Utah to minus 26 yards
Limited Northern Colorado to minus 25 yards



Three straight games holding opponents to negative rushing yards.

We gave up 94 to Arizona State.

Four game average - 9 yards/game

NMHU -- Not very surprising, though I would have expected more out of a passing game from a school so recently coached by a Fassel

SUU -- Even less surprising than NMHU

UNC -- A tad surprising as UNC is SUPPOSED to be improved this year

Sac -- Not going to happen as we have THREE RBs who will run wild

If those stats are correct they are def. impressive. Anytime a team holds opposing teams for negative rushing yardage for the game, for three weeks, its impressive - I don't care who you're playing as long as they are all collegiate football teams.

Man, I'm glad Bergquist, Mariani, and Ferriter are lighting it up through the air this year...it's going to be a fun year in the Big Sky...

We're back to the good old days of Big Sky football: no defense at all.

I think the conference should kick out Montana State this year because they're the only team who relies on defense over offense.

That would be the LEAST of the reasons why the conference should kick out Montana State. :lol: :lol: :lol:
