Football GAMEDAY THREAD -- Rutgers Football vs. No. 1 Ohio State

[SBP]

Same play 3 times in a row?? Common not against OSU!

 

[Extra Point]

A reception!

 

[rutgersguy1]

Kick the FG again

Looks like we’re going for it

Maybe we’ll get another big play like the KM run lol

 

[NickRU714]

See here we are again close to a score and it was off a sudden change like I said it would likely be.

Taking points in a close game isn’t a bad thing.

Some coaches like Lanning need to learn that

And we could be tied 7-7 about to go up 14-7 if we even tried last series.

 

[RUTGERS95]

with our backs, we need an I formation

 

[greenknight]

Kickk the fg

 

[toby83]

Kick it

 

[redking]

Use the TE in the red zone? Come on Gary

 

[bac2therac]

Shotty last 2 plays

Just kick the fg because they are not getting the td on 4th

 

[ClassOf02]

Would take the 3 points here.

Or maybe call the good ole fumble-rooskie.

 

[ashokan]

Dremel too small for that play

 

[NickRU714]

And we could be tied 7-7 about to go up 14-7 if we even tried last series.

Unless we run another pass to gain 1 yard at best.

 

[RUTGERS95]

playcalling is terrible here. can't sugar coat that

we need this play!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[greenknight]

Greg dont listen to Jesse Palmer take the 3 pts stuff & on d and get ball backn2nd half down 1

 

[TGonzRU]

I mean why…

 

[Jerseylegends]

I'm taking 7-6 with defense playing well, getting the ball first next half and QB throwing terrible balls today

 

[pmvon]

Kick the field goal

 

[zebnatto]

Like call.

 

[greenknight]

Wooooooooooo that was close

 

[zebnatto]

playcalling is terrible here. can't sugar coat that

we need this play!!!!!!!!!!!

Zero confidence in quarterback. Deservedly.

 

[NickRU714]

6 plays in the red zone.
1 pass out the back of the endzone
1 pass at the LOS
4 runs up the middle

6 points
"Offense we need to win"

 

[sct1111]

We gotta ride Monangai the rest of the game

 

[bac2therac]

If we ever had a killer instict on offense we would be top 20

That said today is exceeding any expectations

 

[pmvon]

The pass the dremel behind him. Geez

 

[Rufaninga]

I wanted to spread everything out,
Give KM some room to run & drive in.

But FG to be down 1, is understandable

 

[RUb-it-in]

That was a TD of the RU guys down field simply made a block. Also, was that a horse-collar?

Wish the 6 foot 7 tight end was a factor.

 

[ClassOf02]

I like taking the 3 points there, but it’s also frustrating. We were imposing our will with the run game until we got inside the 5. Then it stalls.

 

[NickRU714]

You can still attempt to get a TD and end up kicking a FG.

We haven't called one play to even attempt to score a TD.

 

[greenknight]

They should have run the same play with JL in motion to center.... GW keep it and run it against the grain of JL in motion and it would have been a TD. LB would have collapsed to line like previous play and walk in TD

 

[Jerseylegends]

Dremel too small for that play

Lol easy on my guy Dremel...best feet we have a wide receiver...we don't have another guy that could've run that route, that precise.. everyone else runs the slippiest routes..

 

[rutgersguy1]

And we could be tied 7-7 about to go up 14-7 if we even tried last series.

Or we could be at 0, we are who we are. It’s not like we’re a productive offense and their offense isn’t as productive as last year. Make them work to get a big gap on us.

It’s not a hard and fast rule. It’s play by ear and the way this game is and their style of play this year makes these kinds of decisions more prudent ones.

If we had to keep up in a track meet then yes I might say go for it but thats not who OSU is this year.

 

[greenknight]

Would have been a race tonthe cone

 

[pmvon]

6 plays in the red zone.
1 pass out the back of the endzone
1 pass at the LOS
4 runs up the middle

6 points
"Offense we need to win"

You do realize our 4 star qB is having trouble throwing the ball. And at the same time our OL is having success against OSU.

 

[NickRU714]

We gotta ride Monangai the rest of the game

We have and scored 6 points.

 

[toby83]

Zero confidence in quarterback. Deservedly.

He completed five passes in a win and guys here were psyched with him and the win and annoyed people questioned his play lol

 

[Extra Point]

The play before last, the oline did look very tired. They are playing hard. Probably why Schiano had them kick the FG.

 

[bac2therac]

And we could be tied 7-7 about to go up 14-7 if we even tried last series.

Yeah that ptevious series was pretty bad..we acted like we didnt just have a huge play and decided to settle for 3 immediately

 

[SBP]

No friggin tight ends .. ridiculous

 

[mildone]

For the first time this year, I don’t see an argument for a coaching decision - don’t think we should’ve gone for the 3 there. Our D has done okay, but OSU had a drop or two on what would’ve been big plays for them. Those drops won‘t continue.

We need points to saty in the game.

 

[zebnatto]

If we ever had a killer instict on offense we would be top 20

That said today is exceeding any expectations

With our QB killer instinct would be foolhardy.
