Woods was a mixed bag in the second half, had one nice tackle at or near the LOS while shedding a block.

Dr. Phil? I seem to remember somebody by that name but can’t quite recall him.
My emoji poll indicates that RG is controversial.
I strive to keep you guessing.
Again, had Sheduer not been an idiot and gotten the O off the field, he wouldn't have had to do it. And it is a cheap ass way to go, but if it works . . .
Woods led the team in tackles, tied for TFL
Have to think his Heisman odds are going to make a big jump after this week
I'm not trying to be ultra critical because I thought Shedeur had an amazing game. Here's the 'but'...He's been touted as a very accurate passer, but he had a few throws where he wasn't under pressure and the ball was delivered not 'on the money'. The circus catch by Travis in the end zone would have been an 'ordinary' touchdown if it was delivered low and outside. He had a couple over the middle that were behind the receiver. All ultimately were caught - we have great receivers, no doubt. But I wonder if pro scouts will see those kind of throws and think his accuracy needs to improve for him to have all-pro type success at the next level. I have no doubt he will be drafted - likely 1st rounder, but many of you know the inter-workings of the pro evaluation process better than I, so I was just wondering if that's a thing or not.
We moved from 217 on the east to 104 on the west. The number of NDSU fans there and in Balch was irritating as hell.
It almost seems as if some people are looking for reasons not to like certain players.
Woods is never going to be a star or a 1st round pick.
He is a kid who is tough as nails, works his butt off to be better and to do what he can to make the team better, and who provides some mobility and pursuit from the LB position that we don't have from anyone else right now.
Would I prefer to have a better, more talented and more complete player there, I can say yes to a number of guys but until we get then it doesn't do anyone any good to look for reasons to be critical, especially when a guy overall was a positive for us.
Woods was one of the worst defenders on the field for either side last night, it doesn't need to be sugar coated because people like his story
Woods led us in tackles!
I think him getting burned on the first big play of the game really biased how a lot of us watched the rest of his game.
I watched Bentley go straight up the gut on a delayed blitz, QB took one step to the left, Bentley took 4 more strides upfield before even attempting to turn around. QB scored. But Woods is the problem.
Trevor is the 2d best tackler on the team!
I might be 25 yards past the LOS but dammit he's good at it
Actually at that point the guy has run away from him. All his tackles were close to the LOS that I recall
I don't think Mara is as good as we need and yes could eventually cost us a game.
That said on a couple of his kicks yesterday that were low wobblers it looked as if the snaps weren't great resulting in less than ideal holds.
Whole placekicking game needs to get better.
We joke about "college kicker" but the chances of it being us on the losing end because of it are more than I like.
For perspective: we used to keep defensive tackle stats as F2F (face to face) and TD (track down) tackles. F2F tackles were worth .5 more than TD tackles on player game ratings. I would guess 90% of Woods' tackles last night were TD.
Looking ahead and future schedules aren't nearly as bad. Next year all three OOC games against Ga Tech, Delaware and Wyoming are ar home. 2026 GA Tech and Northwestern on the road and then 2027 Colgate, Northwestern and Northern Illinois all at home.
Obviously GA Tech could be a problem but that's about it.
Having more than 1 OOC game on the road is unacceptable and stupid
And?
You gotta be ****ting me. Why would I find a reason to hate on a player?
I think Trevor is awesome but he struggled in pass pro most of the night. Sorry that offends you
So he was the 2nd best tackler, best pass rusher, and 7th best run defender (assuming I got each category correct). Seems like his overall grade was essentially tanked by his coverage grade, which I assume was skewed from the first drive blown coverage.
Doesn’t seem like his day was quite as bad as you and others are making it out to be.
