This game had penalties and dropped passes galore by Minot.
I should have been alot closer. Bismarck was only up 21-14 at half. A few of Bismarcks touchdowns were a couple blown coverages and a kick return. There was also a pick six a the end of the game.
There is a theme for Minot's losses this year, every single one of them, Minot was plagued with mistakes.
One more thing. Ben Bolinske has absolutely no control over the offense. The play that he gets from the sideline, is the play that they will run. If he saw 9 guys in the box theres nothing he can do about it. You can't be predictable against Bismarck.
Thus ends my rant

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt after your ridiculous theory of saying a dynasty was over because you beat their freshmen and JV. Clearly after hanging 50 on your team at home, it's not close from over but it's good that you enjoyed the sub-varsity wins last week. I watched the webcast..and you're right it should have been closer but Bismarck also had a ton of mental penalties as well so don't act like that's why you lost. You were out coached and out played by a more physical team. According to the Minot Daily news you dropped 5 passes, 2 for TD's. That would still put you at 50-28, not close and no, this dynasty isn't over with their 8th straight win over Minot.
You guys are a very good team but should be much better but clearly aren't getting the coaching they'll need. Hopefully, you'll be able to make it out of the 1st round game traveling to the East's 2nd seed, which is most likely Davies but they will need some huge adjustments.

Doesn't take a doctorate to figure out what the issue is. I can almost guarantee you that a number of the kids on these winning teams won't see much, if any, playing time at the varsity level....no matter how much they deserve to be out there due to being more than capable.

There are some good players that choose to not play because their focus is basketball or they don't like football, but typically, your better players/athletes are starting varsity as juniors and don't play JV. If coaches find a good player, they will find a spot for them. Also, if an average player works hard and commits to the weightroom the coaches will find a place for them. If a guy sits around eating donuts and doesnt put the time in to get better, they don't deserve to play. These lame excuse is very tiresome. End rant

gvmearees- If you're not from Minot or never went to Minot High, you have no right to make that comment. I graduated from that school a few years ago. I think I have a better perspective than you do. There were kids in my gym classes that actually outperformed the kids in sports. But they knew they couldn't make the team.
For example- Last year, some girls on the girls basketball team were told to not try-out, because they would'nt make the team anyway. Everyone deserves a chance.
As for the football team, if you have a 6' 4" TE Lund, you don't throw screens to him all game.
