Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Rutgers Football versus UCLA

[drewbagel423]

This team is the opposite of 2008. Starting out 4-0 then going to lose every game after

 

[RUeric]

Zero contested catches. Everything is wide open all over the place.

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

Garbage

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

The D is just so bad

 

[rurichdog]

Refs are letting ucla get away with lots of extra curricular. Our guys not hitting back.

 

[Rokodesh]

The only thing Schiano does well is dive at his opponent's knees in a victory formation.

 

[Rutman514]

Did Igbinosun just let that guy smack him like that? Show some fight, get a flag, I don't even care, just show some pride wow

 

[SBP]

If they score here it’s over

 

[rurichdog]

Here at the game. Crowd is great all things considered. Deserve better than this.

The crowd is all people who show up once a year. They don't know any better, haven't sat through years of this brutality.

 

[BossNJ]

One would think after 7 games Walker and Djabome would know what gaps they’re responsible for

Abominable coaching

 

[rusig96]

Try not to speak

No need to get mad. Facts are facts

 

[Rokodesh]

One would think after 7 games Walker and Djabome would know what gaps they’re responsible for

Abominable coaching

Who is the linebackers coach?

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

We are letting UCLA complete 86.2% of their passes on high volume. That has to be some kind of a record.

 

[wngarbarini]

Who was watching # 22 on that TD pass?

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

ref should have whistled that slap at Ig.. how could they not see that?

 

[JRZEER]

Great drive

Refs are letting ucla get away with lots of extra curricular. Our guys not hitting back.

should have been a flag on the ucla RB. Way past the whistle.

 

[shields]

Athan is so slow when he runs the ball.

 

[Rutgers Chris]

Who was watching # 22 on that TD pass?

Walker

 

[BossNJ]

Indiana all over Nebraska soon to be 7-0 and Stone Age Greggie still floundering in year 5.

Where are the millions wasted on this coaching staff??

 

[RUboston]

Abominable coaching

You would think Walker would know he has to cover the RB coming to his side. 87 yards untouched. Unbelievable.

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

Athan is so slow when he runs the ball.

Ever since the brace

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

Great drive

should have been a flag on the ucla RB. Way past the whistle.

That's on the refs.. not on Rutgers.. they should do their jobs

Athan is so slow when he runs the ball.

He NEVER scrambles to THROW.. he tucks it early telling teh D.. come get me

 

[LotusAggressor]

I should've known those early wins were fools gold...Rutgers does some things I've never seen done anywhere else, not even in highschool...that stupid a** read option where the QB holds on for what seems like forever with the ball in the end chest before letting go. And he NEVER keeps it, No screen passes, no dynamic route concepts or motions to get receivers open. The QB run his alot of things last year but I thought they would open things up this year with a different QB. Guess I was wrong if they were going to continue with this style of play why even change QBs? Open up the offense! Idk what to say about the defense, losing you're and having Powell less than 100% sucks but come on, none of these guys are developing? Are these guys partying now or what? Seems like leadership within the locker room is not there either, pride has to kick in at some point..

Wake Forest was effective with the slow mesh, but their OC is better.

 

[RUfromNJ]

Who is the linebackers coach?

You’re not gonna like the answer

 

[Mr Magoo]

Does our defense even have hands?

 

[RUboston]

This tackling is atrocious. How many yards do they get after first contact?!

 

[BossNJ]

Who is the linebackers coach?

Whoever he is he needs to go.

And this has been a problem all year. Defensive “genius” Greggie should’ve had this solved 5 games ago.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

OMG Powell got tackled in the hole.. throw the damn flag refs! Huge hold right at teh point of attack.. they cannot have missed that.

 

[RUeric]

Ray held like crazy and injured as a result.

 

[Rokodesh]

How many kids decommit after this game?

 

[trueyanksfan]

The crowd is all people who show up once a year. They don't know any better, haven't sat through years of this brutality.

Fair enough.

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

That's on the refs.. not on Rutgers.. they should do their jobs

He NEVER scrambles to THROW.. he tucks it early telling teh D.. come get me

He’s wearing a brace on his knee. Go back and look how explosive he was with the scramble for the first against VTech or Washington (can’t remember which game). He’s not remotely the same with the brace speed wise

 

[mydameisdick]

One would think after 7 games Walker and Djabome would know what gaps they’re responsible for

Abominable coaching

A new concern that I’m seeing today…. A LOT of D guys waiting for someone else to make the play. Maybe it’s so many twos playing but they’re not swarming like they did last year.

 

[WasatRutgers]

I actually have respect for UCLA’s 1-5 record—3 losses to top 10 teams, another to #16 and the other to a pretty good Minn. our record would be the same.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

He’s wearing a brace on his knee. Go back and look how explosive he was with the scramble for the first against VTech or Washington (can’t remember which game). He’s not remotely the same with the brace speed wise

AND.. what does that have to do with NOT trying to scramble to run but scrambling to THROW instead?

 

[Mr Magoo]

Buffalo in Detroit on the day after Christmas is only a pipe dream now.

 

[BossNJ]

UCLA with their longest run play and longest pass play of the season.

Only Rutgers

 

[Rokodesh]

igbinoson's first tackle of the season

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

Powell cannot keep up.. not his fault.. injured

 

[Mr Magoo]

The defense has become quite hilarious
