Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Rutgers vs. Temple

[rurichdog]

I'm going to need much stronger edibles if this is how we're going to play for the rest of the year.

 

[ddsmugs]

Are we down to moving Langan back to QB till Vedral is ready?

 

[matty666]

Not a fan of Gleason right now. For al his

I just don’t get why we didn’t have johnny at qb and just run run run.

thank God they finally figured they out

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

Do any recruits or even current players love this offense?

The offense could work with a QB who can make routine plays. Evan looked pedestrian against Wagner so he won't be the answer. At least Gavin gives us the RPO look and can make things happen with his feet.

 

[miketd1]

On the plus side, W with no(?) major injuries.

 

[nirrad]

Almost lost this game. Loyal’s pick 6 is the difference

 

[RUOtBOtOR]

Is it possible to feel worse about a win?

 

[koleszar]

ugly win is just that hopefully this is the only ugly game of the season

I know you’re trying to be positive. But you want to see ugly, wait till next week when the offense has negative yards in the 1st half. It’ll bring back the nostalgia of the Ash error.

 

[Mr Magoo]

A win is a win but that was awful.

 

[Bleed_Scarlet]

This is a disaster of a game - Temple is one of the worst 10 D1 teams in the country

We have A LOT of work to do

I’m glad we won, but just yuck

 

[gef21]

Do any recruits or even current players love this offense?

Yes. Lots of them do. Because they see the bigger picture.

 

[kt124]

Disagree with announcers. Get in the endzone there and go up 2 scores

we’ve already had one missed extra point this season

 

[sport2231]

Disagree with announcers. Get in the endzone there and go up 2 scores

I don’t know if anyone is trusting the XP right now

 

[RUinPAC10land]

A WTF game for sure. Fortunately, RU won. Ugly wins are always better than pretty losses.

 

[ghostrider7508]

Well…we laid an egg for sure. But we won 🙌🏾 🤷🏾‍♂️. Bring on Iowa!

 

[RUTrack94]

Win is a win but man that was ugly …

 

[matty666]

Are we down to moving Langan back to QB till Vedral is ready?

Why put Vedral back? He's literally no better than the other two guys. Never has been and never will be. I'd rather Langan.
Doesn't help thst our OC sucks either

 

[tfio]

Disagree with announcers. Get in the endzone there and go up 2 scores

Not if our kicker misses the extra point….

 

[cicero grimes]

RUTGERS WINS!!!!

I would like to think that the players came in flat and unprepared thinking this was going to be a walkover. Hopefully they got the clunker out of their system and will now play well in conference play.

 

[-RUFAN4LIFE-]

Isn't it sad that neither of our QB's are good/reliable enough to finish this game that we need to put in Langan to just muscle the ball down the field?

Don't know why so many assumed without a doubt that both were better than Noah.

Now that said, also keep in mind that this was Temple's Super Bowl. They were pumped for this game and wanted to make a statement. RU should have executed better and snuffed out that fire early but didn't.

 

[RutgersK1d]

False. Take the Broad street line right to the stadium

Like I said mass transit…

 

[Rokodesh]

Thank god they won but yikes that was ugly

 

[JoeRU0304]

A loss here ends the season.this

Is it possible to feel worse about a win?

We can add this one in with 2010 FIU and Norfolk State, 2012 Tulane, 2018 UMass, etc...

[FIJI'83]

The rest of the way with VEDRAL. Let me write it again VEDRAL. Say it again VEDRAL. One last time VEDRAL!

 

[WhichReligionIsRight]

How smart was I to not look at any threads on the board until now?

 

[RU4Real]

I don't know how you don't take the points at the end. So you give Temple the ball back with less than a minute left. They'd be down by 9 with no timeouts.

 

[The RUT]

3-0 headed into a night game vs Iowa next week.

What more could you want?

 

[William J. Leggett]

Holy $hit… I really hope that was “the trap” game…

 

[MADHAT1]

This is a Schiano special, get used to games like this. Games we should handle easily but either win a by a nail or lose. Thankfully we’ll get out of hear with a W

not the best way to inspire confidence , but winning is the main thing and that was done today.
Just hoping Noah is ready to play against Iowa next week.
Congrats to the team and coaches for the win today.
No matter how the game looked, they came out the winner.

 

[RUb-it-in]

I trust the D to do its job but I am liking our offense with Wimsatt less and less. I’d like to see Simon next drive with some chances for him to pass early.

Temple may be more of a Big Ten team than we are at this time 😒

Game was never in doubt!

Yeah it should have never been played.

 

[T2Kplus20]

Why put Vedral back? He's literally no better than the other two guys. Never has been and never will be. I'd rather Langan.
Doesn't help thst our OC sucks either

We literally may have the 3 worst QBs in D1 football.

 

[mildone]

Yes. Lots of them do. Because they see the bigger picture.

And if they’re good enough to recruit, then they probably think they can make a difference, help the team do better. Whic is what the RU coaches would be telling them.

 

[kupuna133]

Good win! Tough to watch. I hope this was a case of overlooking the opponent. 3-0 is 3-0. New season starts next week.

 

[colbert17]

Does anyone know what happened to Gavin?

 

[Joey Bags]

Iowa is dropping at least 28 on us lmao. They are eventually going to break out, and we’re an excellent stepping stone.

 

[SAE96]

I’ll take the win. The offense, however, looked awful.

 

[RUMED]

Smart play by Langan!

Why smart? Touchdown and extra point puts RU up by 9. I guess could miss extra point and Temple could score quickly with 2 point conversion to tie but I guess could also screw up taking a knee and allowing Temple one last chance. Interesting choice

 

[gef21]

And if they’re good enough to recruit, then they probably think they can make a difference, help the team do better. Whic is what the RU coaches would be telling them.

Exactly. Which is why coaches sit down and show film and playbooks to kids.

 

[mikemarc1]

3-0 headed into a night game vs Iowa next week.

What more could you want?

a team that looks good isn’t hard to ask for.
Lucky we’ve played 3 of the worst teams in CFB

 

[colbert17]

I don't know how you don't take the points at the end. So you give Temple the ball back with less than a minute left. They'd be down by 9 with no timeouts.

Not if we miss the XP. That was the right play there.
