Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Rutgers Football versus UCLA

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

um.. are we now setting up returns to stop fake punt passes? WTF? he could have fair caught that on the 15.

 

[jkernpop]

Get the NIL ready for DLs

Ye$$ir! Main focus and not close

 

[chase_NJ]

D line is starting to get pressure. This is the best they've looked.

 

[ashokan]

They're going after LBs, second level. Need adjustment.

That happens when the DL isn't shutting things down too well

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

1st play.. GO DEEP please.. playaction

AK keep is good nuff.. punish that run blitz

 

[shields]

Hawaii was the first game, i hope they improved.

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

Some injuries is one thing. The amount, and the specific players we have out is a very valid excuse for struggling as the far less experienced players get up to speed.

I would agree if we were playing any other team in the conference. The team we are playing hasn’t scored more than 17 all season. That includes against Hawaii.

 

[mildone]

No, no. He really is calling it like he sees it. It’s just that he is extremely myopic. 😉

 

[RUeric]

Great block by whoever that is playing TE

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

good block by higgins

 

[mildone]

Lol oooh injuries

The evergreen excuse

 

[bac2therac]

bac's a basketball first guy.. secretly wants football to fail because they suck up resources basketball could use.. only when football is doing well and he'd look like a fool for saying otherwise will he seem supportive.. he cannot help himself

Also go f yourself

Shut up stop being negative

 

[ru-baby]

One of my big complaints was the tighten blocking that has blown up so many plays this year. Today the tide end blocking is so so much better already.

 

[Rokodesh]

I love Miller

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

Great block by whoever that is playing TE

Higgins

Shut up stop being negative

 

[Rokodesh]

Great block by whoever that is playing TE

That was Logan Blake

 

[mildone]

Go for it.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

yeah we gotta punt this... O has not proven they can convert regularly.. and D needs all teh room it can get.. cannot give UCLA teh ball at the 50

 

[mildone]

Should’ve gone for it. Keep the momentum. Keep the ball.

 

[Joey Bags]

What the **** is schiano yelling about they are just punting the ball.

Guy has some real bizarre behavior at times

 

[RUeric]

That 3rd down draw call was weak, but the punt was the right call.

 

[chase_NJ]

No point in going for it at this point in the game. Correct call.

 

[mildone]

Good punt.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

I like the game plan and hope we stick with it. Stretch them.. make them back off those run blitzes.. consistently.. then we can run the ball.

Looked like he was talking to a ref. The team wasn't on the field.

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

You go for it from the 38. Not the 48. Correct play.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

That was Logan Blake

they called out Higgins on TV.. was it Blake? It was 88, not 11.. it was Higgins

 

[kupuna133]

Run it on 3rd and 8 and don’t go for it on 4th and 1? Stupid is as stupid does.

It seemed like he was trying to draw them offsides knowing we’d take the delay of game.

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

It was 4th and almost 3.

It’s a coach thing. I thought the hard count was pretty weak, maybe the O made a mistake with it.

I’ve had teams up 5 goals in soccer and watched my players make a bonehead mistake with some easy stuff, I’d yell too, in my quiet way. Nothing pisses off coaches like brains farts with easy stuff.

 

[ClassOf02]

I think UCLA got this.

 

[rutgersguy1]

I think he got it but we’ll see if they can overturn

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

Now I can’t help but think why this didn’t happen for us in the Nebraska game.

 

[rutgersguy1]

I think he got it but we’ll see if they can overturn

There you go they couldn’t overturn with the video evidence

Crazy for Foster to go for this.

They got it but that’s nuts. It’s a close game and you’re still very far away from any sort of scoring.

 

[Rokodesh]

they called out Higgins on TV.. was it Blake? It was 88, not 11.. it was Higgins

I saw it was 11 clearly. Maybe you're referring to a different play. Either way doesn't matter now.

 

[ClassOf02]

It worked, but that is a dumbass call.

 

[RUeric]

Easiest sneak ever with only 4 on the line.

 

[mildone]

We shoulda gone for it earlier.
