RU vs Minnesota GAME THREAD :

[miketd1]

No way. Gio limping but can still play. Let him finish out this drive.

Just on that one short down.

 

[Block R]

Hey, our tackle moved and drew the offsides flag. Finally

 

[Saint Puppy]

#%!#$%!#$%$#^#%^*!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ArminRU]

Bad Gio is back...

 

[RUSK97]

Ouch

 

[bitnez]

Ugh

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

So much for getting points.

 

[bac2therac]

oh well so much for that..right to him

 

[runroyrun]

Bang.

 

[miketd1]

::record skip::

 

[RU848789]

Dammit!

 

[Caliknight]

That hurts. Terrible throw by Gio.

 

[Block R]

Bad Gio is back...

He's young and inexperienced but still showing a lot today. Have to live with these mistakes, however costly.

 

[scarlet_ty]

Why do the FB gods hate us so much! J/k but some promising things from Gio today.

 

[motorb54]

was open for the TD

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

WR made no attempt to even try to catch that. If the WR at least maybe put his hands up, maybe it's not an interception.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Damn it. Bad throw there.

 

[ArminRU]

I have a feeling Gio is gonna be a lot like Nova.

Yes, Yes, Yes....NOOOOOO

 

[RUSK97]

Not a bad call, just a bad pass. If he led the receiver it would've been 6.

 

[Rutgers Man 22]

Lots of positives. He's still young and it's his first ever start. This stuff will happen. But we see the flashes of greatness

 

[zappaa]

He made the right throw, to high

 

[iReC89]

Receiver should have been on that to at least knock it down

 

[Caliknight]

The team that turns the ball over more usually loses.

0-2.

 

[RUinPAC10land]

Giovanni Nova.

 

[Blitz8RUCrazy]

Gio still much better than CL. not even close. Has a ton of good throws. Some bad ones but mostly good. We don't have much talent at WR

 

[MikeR0102]

bad end to the half.

 

[Block R]

On the bright side, Minny didn't score in the 2nd quarter.

 

[RUboston]

WR made no attempt to even try to catch that. If the WR at least maybe put his hands up, maybe it's not an interception.

Not a great throw but the receiver didn't jump or make any attempt at it.

 

[ArminRU]

Should of had a TD there......Gio missed the long one and then obviously the INT.

Still better than Laviano.

Hope Oden is ready though, Gio's leg looks to be about one fall away from being done.

 

[armenius]

We would've had 2 more minutes on that drive instead of rushing things if Odin didn't come in for those 2 plays. Boneheaded coaching move!

 

[TheHandOfChaos]

At least we look like an offense like many posters have said.

 

[RUSK97]

You know the tradition where the QB buys the o-line dinner before the game? This o-line should be buying the QB dinner instead.

 

[ngrant]

I have a feeling Gio is gonna be a lot like Nova.

Yes, Yes, Yes....NOOOOOO

Where's Martin? missed it...

 

[cubuffsdoug]

Bad Gio is back...

What are you talking about? He's ten times better than Laviano.

 

[miketd1]

Can't turn the ball over. TOs are the #1 factor in determining the game.

Leads me to believe this maxim guides Ash's roster decisions.

 

[Jersey Boys]

Yes, the turnover sucks. Need to take the good with the bad. But we finally see what this offense can do with decent QB play. We get the ball back. Now do something.

Also, can we get Martin and Hicks some play? They are proven commodities and will produce against this D.

 

[RUScrew85]

Ash has now jumped the shark.

C'mon man he's a first year HC. I'm pretty sure that if there is no unknown to us reason for Oden he'll realize his mistake and not nmake it again.

 

[D.I.P.]

Sorry but that is not entirely Gio's fault... that WR HAS to make an effort at that ball are you kidding me!!??? Even if he doesn't catch or tough the ball he puts some arms up in front of the safety's eyes...

 

[ArminRU]

What are you talking about? He's ten times better than Laviano.

When did I say he isn't? He also threw a horrible int last game and now this one.

 

[RUBand]

Why was Oden in? OC should be fired yesterday??

I thought resigno looked like he was favoring one leg when coming off the field

 

[RUeric]

Hey at least the offense is now watchable. I'm sorry for saying the team quit. Turnovers and big plays are the story this game so far.

 

[ru-baby]

Damn armin- defending the indefensible and ranking on gio after we have a two min drive and almost score? When was the last time we had such excitement on offense? I know you defended cl For years ( and i guess you will snipe on whoever replaces him) but gio looked better than cl ever looked

 

[DHajekRC84]

two TO's for 10 points. There is your game right there. What's the 1 thing you can't do there? Yup, Rutgers..we did it.
