Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Rutgers Football vs. Iowa
- Thread starter Richie O
- Start date
That was in ‘08 the game that started the winning streak. I describe that as the game both teams were trying not to win. Their kicker had two doinks—one off each upright. Never saw anything like it.
That's game. 27-10. I wouldn't call that a rolled, but disappointed.
Yes, there were no quality wins. We even let Wagner score in the first half—the indignity.
And it’s been a LOOOONG time since we’ve had a 300 yard passer.
…And he did it against Iowa.
I like that they played like crap, took a ton of hits, and has pulled off some really nice drives. Tough kid
#77 is absolutely absymal in pass blocking...it's like watching Kamaal Seymour play LT instead of RT.
Sutton getting hurt did more damage than us not having a competent QB.

This game is why Greg preaches turnovers. Without our 2, this is a winnable game
His offense scored 10 points. You're never going to win many games with offense like that.
Sorry but I don’t agree. He had enough time to get throws off. He just throws into double or triple coverage. It wasn’t until Iowa was up 3 scores and backed off completely that he was able to complete reads. Just like against Maryland. He can help us avoid losing 78-0 but I’m not sure he can help us win.
He has ZERO pocket awareness and he can’t read.
There should have been more roughing the passer calls. They were hitting him clearly after ball had left his hands. They kept doing it because refs not calling it.

Plus the PI call on a pass 5 yards out of the end zone
Should see the Ark A&M kick. Ark down two 41yd FG to take the lead at the end of the game and it goes off the TOP of the upright and misses.
Mike Teel's first year starting he had 2 TDs to 10 Ints. Hell even his second he had 12/13. I think we all agree he turned out ok right? Sometimes it takes some time to find your footing. Not everyone comes in and lights it up immediately. He's had exactly 2 games where he was actually able to play start to finish. One against one of the best defenses in the country. I see some promise.
Why cant they light it up immediately... all of cfb teams seem to have qbs who do that
Well Vedral is in his 6th year and is no better yet people think he should start, so I don't know.
Think Simon progressed a lot today. OL improved compared to last year but not sure if it's good enuf to win 3 games in B1G east. The D is real good. Like our D. Made all the crucial stop today except on those slant run plays. Got creamed on those and ultimately gave up a TD. Hope we give GW 2 full games to see how he does.
Yeah - that was a bad miss. A healthy Vedral makes that throw - there’s no doubt in my mind. I also don’t think he throws a pick in this type of game.
He is much better at reading the defense and adjusting the play accordingly. His arm isn’t great and so he’s not a threat to throw a long ball but in this particular game he would’ve been a huge help. We likely score a TD on the opening drive with Noah and punt it away on the second drive -Vedral is a veteran in that respect. He would not have thrown that pick 6. Not playing from behind would’ve been huge for us.
Maybe. I remember him throwing 2 brutal picks against Illinois when we were trying to put the game away and we lost.
