Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Rutgers vs. No. 2 Michigan

[FrankZ]

Yeah those handoffs ain’t it

 

[Rufaninga]

No room inside to run
Need to get it outside

 

[rino_deez]

Love KM, but we need to get sam brown goin against this front

 

[RUeric]

Just too predictable right now on these short yardage plays. The OL isn't good enough to just brute force it.

 

[ashokan]

I don't like that delayed option on a dive

 

[Rokodesh]

That should've been a handoff to sam

 

[RU#1fan]

WTF
Can the OL get at least a little push ?????

 

[Plum Street]

Sloooooooow developing.

It was an option for the QB

 

[miketd1]

Keep that recruiting pipeline to Australia open.

 

[SBP]

Horrible play calling! We ain’t runnin on these guys! Short passing game is the way to go mix in Gavin runs. Only then it might open up

 

[SouthJerseyRU]

Showing respect for the D.

More like they know they are the better team, so no need to take on the additional risk. RU has to do the opposite.

 

[RUSK97]

C’mon defense!

 

[mildone]

Bundle home and auto. Ha ha ha ha ha.

 

[RW90]

Didn't know Adam "recruited" the punter. Pretty cool.

 

[dmurph24]

So succes running to the outside on first couple drives.....and then give up on it?

 

[Plum Street]

Straight to the damn hole please they have an elite d line we can’t do this delay handoff bs on a 3rd and one

It’s a read.

 

[Extra Point]

Rutgers has to keep it close into the 4th quarter. Late in the game is when the offense rolls.

 

[Rokodesh]

Need to keep hitting them with the quick passes, and when they fall asleep over the top

 

[njxchange]

how about little fake hand off to the middle and option flea flicker to outside. These Michigan guys are crashing the middle. Need to open up to outside so these ends cant just crash in

 

[ScarletKid2008]

You had two of our WRs 1 on 1 with press coverage. YOU HAVE TO THROW THERE !

 

[miketd1]

I’ll hold judgment on these non-productive run plays for now.

Need to know if these are setting up play-action.

So far… no.

 

[mildone]

Good D.

 

[ashokan]

Horrible play calling! We ain’t runnin on these guys! Short passing game is the way to go mix in Gavin runs. Only then it might open up

LOL - how many teams run for short yards in the middle after counting "2 Mississippi." Good lord.

 

[robjknight]

Korsak2

So far Abbleby just as good as Adam. Giving us good field position.

 

[Scarlet Blind]

They've got to show a different look ar RB, they are keying on Monangai.

 

[greenknight]

Stop running onto their strength wtf

 

[miketd1]

So far, Michigan has shown more creativity on offense.

Which is a little surprising as you would think they would just line it up and push for 3 yards every down.

 

[bitnez]

It’s what we do. We run the ball with the expectation that in the 4Q we’ll pop some. We have to get to used to it.

 

[ClassOf02]

Ah, damn….holding them on 3rd down there would’ve been big.

 

[njxchange]

the WR started going before the ball was snapped.

false start!!!

 

[mildone]

That was a nice pass play, dammit.

 

[FrankZ]

Sigh

 

[rutgersguy1]

That was a nice pass play, dammit.

It was a nice throw by JJ and unfortunately followed up by a big run by him too

 

[RUinPinehurst]

Need to hit McCarthy a few more times. Rattle 'em.

 

[rucoe89]

We just seem to be missing a few more horses to keep up with Michigan talent and what that enables them to do and us to counter. Valiant effort so far by Rutgers to keep it tied.

 

[gef21]

We are not good enough to recover from missed opportunities. The missed fg, the dropped int, the penalties. But we're hanging

 

[Rokodesh]

Need a spy on the QB

 

[rucoe89]

It was a nice throw by JJ and unfortunately followed up by a big run by him too

It was a great route call by Michigan. Melton played it close but just a perfect throw.

 

[chickenpatty2]

I'm Greg:
"It's a process."

 

[njxchange]

these Michigan guys are tilting forward before the ball is snapped so many times...
