The most unofficial Bobcat gameday thread - South Dakota, Semifinals

Did you all see how Tommy looked RIGHT INTO THE CAMERA and said he “couldn’t wait to get after” NDSU!?!?

In the words of Doc Holliday, "Oh, make no mistake...It's not revenge he's after...It's a reckoning".

Or Wyatt, “Tell ‘em I’m coming … and Hell’s coming with me!”

Rewatched 2021 game. We are not losing today

Did you notice that this game ended the same way, and with the same score? WILD.

Yep and recovered by our stud DE. Pretty damn cool

Just like in 21 when Daniel Hardy recovered!

[The Butcher]

The end of the game felt very UCD like. Playing the clock more than the score. Obviously it worked this time better than in Cali! Had me worried as hell though!!!

Have to give credit to USD. They were tough and physical. Grace is a unit. Dude is just a crazy looking human being. If I never see Theis again, it'll be too soon. The dude's balance, ability to break tackles and move piles is better than an FCS RB I've ever seen.

[Montanabob]

disappointed they didn't spy the 2 best usd players better.
sort if like they didn't respect them.

Anyone know why Vigen got so pissed off? I rarely see him get that animated. Looked like maybe it was concerning Mastel?

He got worked in that two yard loss.

When I watched the monday press conference I thought their coach gave canned answers (ash like) and there was no way he could light a fire on his team for Bobcat Stadium. But they showed up and his postgame showed how much he cares about Thiess (sp?) and his senior class. They are absolutely where we were 5 years ago and hope the portal doesn’t set them back. Respect to USD!

That said, great job crowd and to the athletes on both sides of the ball. We don’t have baseless enthusiasm heading to Frisco this year, we’ve proven we can hang with and ultimately beat down anyone! Senior class gets huge props, but next man up and 1-0 mentality is why we are where we are.

Hope there’s a QuarterbackClub agreement to pay Vigen to keep his phone turned off for the next 2 weeks…or a few years longer… to keep building this program into THE FCS program in the country.

Great Day to be a BOBCAT!

Anyone else think Rylan played his best game?

Conner Moore beat Grace more than Grace beat Moore. Great battle all game!

Which is exactly why Moore will be playing on Sundays!

Thought Rylan played better than Dru who I could tell he wasn't 100%. That 2nd touchdown, Dru had a bad miss. On the long Thies run, just flush that tape. They never got their deep shot which was big. Thought the pass rush was good. Run defense slowly got better as the game went on but it was not friendly in the first quarter and a half. I don't think Rylan played bad by any means, I just think he's had better games this season.

For sure. Wasn’t bad, but on all the TD runs both safeties took bad angles and missed tackles. Ortt is getting picked on more and more in coverage, and he’s holding up okay, but it’s the definite weak point. Pretty dang good weak point.

We can and will talk about this team for a long time. But, dang boys, we should be proud of the scene we created yesterday. The noise absolutely caused both of their bad snaps.

When Eiden had that sack, it blew the roof off the place.

The defense was a little amped up. They were over pursuing a bit and got out of gap. They definitely settled in and were much better after the first 20 min or so.
