Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Rutgers Football versus Akron

Nice answer to Akron TD. Would Like D to get stop now and allow the 2nd team to finish this off. Need everyone for VT. Off week will be a good time to get D front seven some coaching on running QBs else Drones will just walk all over them.
Hopefully Marshall and ODU softens up Drones for us.

RU’s O is built to grind teams down with the run game all first half and then start getting explosive running plays with KM in the second half. Which makes it even more critical to avoid turnovers on the relative few pass plays we’ll see against strong opponents later in the season.

So AK really must reign in that natural QB tendency to try to be heroic which often leads to INTs. We got lucky in the first half.

But his accuracy is clearly worlds better than GW. Not just short, but as we just saw, on long balls.

If Lewis just slammed on the brakes there, the OL chasing him would’ve crashed into him from behind, creating an illegal block in the back. Slowing up would also avoid being side-stepped so easily by the QB.

Raymond looking good and OL finally getting some push. Akron reminds me of us against OSU, Michigan, or PSU during the Ash era. Solid, but just worn out from constant beating in the trenches.
