sounds to me like kickers win games.

Awesome insight. Good to hear about Epperly and I'm sure Weyer will get it with expierience.Sam A. Blitz said:Montana was too one-dimensional on offense. Think Montana had the better athletes and definitely had an edge in speed, but ND seemed to have a better game plan and played smarter. The difference was special teams. Montana had trouble in the return game and that kicker for ND was clutch. ND was able to get points in the red zone and MT wasn't able to convert on drives.
Weyer played well. He does need to work on getting more comfortable in the pocket and using his foot work and size to buy time in the pass rush. Couple times where he could have stepped up and delivered instead of running out of the pocket and either getting sacked or throwing away bad passes. He has a D-1 arm and can make all the throws. Good accuracy on long balls. The talent is definitely there.
Both teams did a good job of pressuring the QB. DL on both teams dominated the opposing OL I thought, which isn't unusual in an all-star game. ND blitzed a lot and were in effective in doing so, but they also had a good idea of what MT was going to run every play.
Epperly, other than the int drop that would have won the game, looked like the best player on the field to me for either team. Very good closing speed and coverage awareness.
Thomas also stood out. Think he could be a good linebacker for us. Has good speed/strength and aggressiveness. Likes to hit.

In other news, the sun rose in the east again this morning. Undoubtedly this had something to do with NDSU...
LOOK AT ME!!!!

You should read more of CDA's work then. Slacker.

Been a fan of his for quite a while/awhile.
I use to think you were one of the more gifted/smarter/knowledgable posters on here. But, after reading CDA's brilliance, comparing you two seems like the "Barry Sanders and Deion Sanders after a touchdown" deal...all over again.
Love ya', bro'!

Difference being, I fully admit my deficiencies when put up against the likes of CDA. :thumb:
Where were you tonight? I was drinking at McKenzie River Pizza and only Pols showed up! :twisted:
