RU vs. Michigan Big BIG game
- Thread starter Knight Owl
- Start date
Absolute annihilation by RU. Michigan is no pushover either...this an absolute domination of a good team.
Looks like we're going to start playing to kill off some clock. Smart move but I don't like it one bit. Should go for utter humiliation.
I'm not gonna lie, I honestly would've went out there to completely humiliate them myself. Payback in some form for them doing that to us in football.
Listen...we're still crushing them, I get it...but for ****'s sake can't we play just ONE complete game?
ONCE AGAIN...how many times have we let our opponents streak us us (twice losing) because we've "slowed down"?? ENOUGH!!!
Looks like the slow down threw us all out of rhythm now 16-8. I think it's time to scrap that strategy in future games. The slow down is not Rutgers game. Do what you do best, keep attacking.
Agree. Now you got Michigan kids acting like hotshots out on the turf and gaining confidence should we meet them in the B1G's which are AT MICHIGAN I do not like this at all. Love the "W," don't get me wrong, took care of business but once again the word "frustrating" comes to mind.
We won 16-8, however, we were winning 12-0 at one point and IIRC they outscored us 6-2 in the 4th.
Updated today:
April is "conference month" so now the real season starts.

Real good win to say the least. Needed it. On top of all of the outstanding offensive performances by Mullins, Vercruysse, et al, thought Heninnburg was outstanding. Didn't score a lot but didn't force anything & found every open man & cutter with pin point passes. Also, though I don't think that Rose scored, he didn't force anything or turn the ball over. And the D was excellent overall.
I merely echo the sentiments and words of the professional game announcers! [thumb2][cheers]
It was great to see us kick a$$ today after the way we lost last week against Johns Hopkins. This win should give our guys great momentum going into nexts weeks contest with number 2 Maryland at Maryland. If we can beat them, I think our chances of an NCAA bid (FINALLY) may be cemented even before the B1G tourney.
Did Rutgers dominate the faceoffs today? If so, I would think that was an important factor in keeping the momentum of our attacking offense through 3 quarters.
The weather next wknd in the DMV is going to be beautiful...temps near 80, after 40s this weekend and tomorrow. I might try to get out to the match in College Park to cheer on the Knights.

Francisco went 12 of 19 today. Very solid outing at the faceoff X.
Connor Kelly is the best offensive middie in the game. What a laser to cut the lead to 1 from almost 20 yards out.
