Yes, although the freshman back up played decent in his debut and got win against a top 25 opponent.
NDSU's conference schedule was front loaded and they finish with 3 middle of the pack MVFC teams (which means 3 pretty damn good squads) in WIU, SIU, YSU, and then a bad MSU team to finish the season. I'd favor them in every game but then again, look who they've already lost to and that was with Wentz.
Another potential impact is JMU's stud QB Vad Lee going down with a foot injury. No word yet on the extent. JMU finishes with W&M, Delaware, and Nova. They could lose to any of them but W&M should be the biggest test.
