SMH girl announcer compares Rutgers play to Bride with Garter. Seriously?

If I recall correctly (I was in the car) our radio broadcast team made the same analogy when it happened. Not a big deal, it was a similar tossing motion

 

[Mr Magoo]

We could very well wind up being the worst team in the league yet again.

 

[nealbo1]

What - you thought this would easy? We earned that loss. Back to work. Go RU!

 

[MadRU]

Staff has some explaining to do

 

[Caliknight]

How do we give up a 16-yard pass on that 3rd down?

Schiano special

 

[Craigmack61]

Looks like they all remembered that they are Chris Ash players today.

 

[shields]

Run Pacheco after the first down.

 

[NickKnight 1]

We officially suck

we suck? you won't admit Greg sucks?

 

[rucoe89]

The penalties, sloppy play, and mental breakdowns of the last three weeks came back and haunted the team in a game they should have won. Maybe they will now learn. Disappointment more so in senior laden defense.

I wouldn't use our radio team as an example of anything positive.

 

[jordkap]

Man what a bad loss, run the ball 3 times on first down late and at worst you go to overtime. Classic Schiano there

 

[scarletbergen]

You suck

 

[RUScrew85]

we suck? you won't admit Greg sucks?

Really? Game 4 into a season where he just inherited Ash's program and you're ripping Greg? That's silly.

 

[RUTrack94]

At least RU won a game this year ... really believed RU would find 4 wins ... time to lower expectations again ...only game I am looking forward to now is PSU ... they’ll be winless and find a way

 

[RUScrew85]

You suck

LOL. Your Mom Sucks! (just kidding I'm sure she's lovely)

 

[rucoe89]

Rutgers is back. Unfortunately, Chris Ash level back.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

disgustingly familiar feeling to the Rutgers game results
the stubbornness of sticking with vedral no matter what

 

[rucoe89]

No one deserved to win this game lol

Illinois did deserve to win it. They made plays when it mattered and took care of the football. They were the better team.

 

[RUScrew85]

Like I said earlier - we have like 10 B1G players on this team. Maybe.

It's gonna take a while.

Looked clear the WR pushed off but shame on us for putting ourselves in that spot.

 

[RUboston]

Illinois had their fourth starting quarterback of the season in there. Maybe Rutgers should consider such an earth shattering move.

 

[TGonzRU]

Rutgers - “We just can’t have nice things...”.

Also Rutgers- “We’ll find a way to lose when we’re supposed to win.”

 

[Barnaby&Neill]

I wouldn't use our radio team as an example of anything positive.

What else does one throw with that motion? A crazy basketball shot in a game of horse?

Greg was the one who pulled Savage. WTF was the reason for not pulling Vedral? Awful.

 

[Caliknight]

Schiano prides himself on being able to stop the run. The second worst team in the league just shoved it up his @ss. That’s on him.

 

[ScarletDave]

Mind-blowing call on the Vedral throw who had interceptions on 2 of his last 3 down field passes. Mind blowing. Ash-level dumb right there. What the actual heck. Put Gleeson up in the booth so he can see this for himself

 

[RUboston]

0-3 Illinois ran for 342 yards.

 

[RUTrack94]

This QB wasn’t cleared to play until this week

 

[Jinpa88]

I think this shows our coaches know we can’t compete straight up.... hence the trickeration last weekend.

 

[RUScrew85]

Actually there is a World's Strongest Man event where they throw a Keg over an overhead rope - but that would admittedly not be a very easy thing to work in.

I think there some crazy Scottish game where they throw telephone poles too. Same.

I don't think Bride, garter or cookie references belong in my FB broadcast. ; )

 

[Caliknight]

What’s Lovie Smiths salary?

See my talent post.

Hey Lovey knew he had it all along. LOLOL

 

[RU848789]

yeah, was looking at that on the replay and maybe, but agree, we put ourselves in that position

 

[TGonzRU]

Run Pacheco after the first down.

The obvious but someone thinks we have Dan Marino on the team. If it weren’t for that last pick (one of many) I think we win.

Hey it counts.

It wasn't going to get better. And neither Vedral or S(Qu)it play on run defense.

An 0 and 3 team comes into Rutgers with their 4th QB in 4 games who has limited arm and runs all over the D. Rutgers play calling blows the mind. QB makes poor decision after poor decision. No change..in fact game on the line Lets give him another chance to F up. Left points on the field 1st half. Poor clock and time out management cost us a FG chance.

This was 2005 again. Tell what did Greg learn about in game coaching as claimed ?

Yes, I am sure he will recruit better. But his game crap looks the same to me.

It got my attention but on replay it wasn't obvious enough to call. At least when playing Rutgers.
