Football Rutgers Football defeats Virginia Tech, 26-23

[RocktheRac]

Yeah?

Yup

 

[BossNJ]

#7 can’t tackle. Missed a few big ones today

 

[rucoe89]

Moreso Schiano's decisions. He decides the baffling decisions on FGs vs Punts.

Maybe both. Will be a bad learning experience if we choke it away. One reason I kept quiet when everyone had us winning this was because I am not confident Schiano has shaken his wtf games.

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

It feels like we’re losing. We can’t run the ball

 

[motorb54]

Terrible punt coverage. Not staying in lane and overrunning your area of responsibility.

 

[mikemarc1]

Killing ourselves. Bonehead play calling and head scratching play.

 

[RocktheRac]

The drama queens here are quite entertaining.

How's the drama now?

 

[RU848789]

Terrible last 4-5 minutes, much of it on the staff

 

[bac2therac]

rutgers defense is overrated

 

[RUgreymatter]

We lose by 1 point, right?

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

Defense isn’t good at all.

 

[Barnaby&Neill]

I’m torn on the field goal…at 58 it would have been a really bad decision. But it’s sort of a game-ender if you hit it, and Patel’s been fairly decent so far in his career. I didn’t hate it

 

[RUSK97]

Team has disappeared.

 

[rucoe89]

Great covers on 2 pt play!




Not.

 

[bac2therac]

Lol way to cover

Why risk it for a career long? Announcers said he could only hit from 50 during warmups.

 

[ashokan]

Looks like a team that played two cupcakes and then had a bye

 

[PiscatawayMike]

Lookin' a lot like we may see a finish like this one...

[newell138]

We lose by 1 point, right?

Not mathematically possible at this point

 

[Barnaby&Neill]

More than missing the field goal, I hated going away from the run after getting the ball back.

 

[Craigmack61]

I can’t believe I’m going to watch them lose this.

 

[RuSnp]

That 2 pointer is not going to go on Flips highlight tape

 

[KingOfTheEast]

Absolutely pathetic

Wake up!

 

[njknightsfan]

VT coaches have made great game adjustments, RU coaches, not sure if they are watching the same game.

#7 can’t tackle. Missed a few big ones today

He lost contain there. I'm not mad about the tackle. He allowed the block to pin him in. Safety was there to fill if he keeps contain.

Patel missed from closer...why not punt and pin them where they have struggled when inside the 20

Bonehead decision

 

[ClassOf02]

Schiano’s style depends on a running game that can move the ball and drain the clock in the 4th quarter. VT has done a good job taking that away from us today. Big drive coming up here.

 

[RUGuitarMan]

RU has done everything they can to keep VT in this game. Looking for the kill shot, instead of punting or kicking a FG. Hopefully they hold on for a win.

 

[SBP]

The decision to try that FG is laughable. The tacking is atrocious and the pass rush is nonexistent. Nail biter

 

[gef21]

VT coaches have made great game adjustments, RU coaches, not sure if they are watching the same game.

They have run the exact same plays on offense.

 

[Extra Point]

Rutgers is looking a little tired. I think start running the ball.

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

rutgers defense is overrated

Haven’t looked good at all.

The problem is they’ve figured out our offense.

 

[RUfromNJ]

NEED to get this back under control. First 1st down is crucial

 

[mikemarc1]

VT coaches have made great game adjustments, RU coaches, not sure if they are watching the same game.

Is this surprising?

 

[RocktheRac]

We lose by 3.FG as time expires

 

[newell138]

It’s a tale as old as time. Let a team hang around and anything can happen

 

[runner3283]

O line stinks today.

 

[RU#1fan]

On the bright side no worries about Florida hiring Schiano.
His in game Coaching continues to be ridiculous.

 

[cicero grimes]

It’s a clear sign no one is watching your “network” if all advertised products are the likes of Alien Tape and other 1-800 “steals.”

My understanding is they don't subscribe to Nielsen for ratings since they already know they have none.

 

[BossNJ]

He lost contain there. I'm not mad about the tackle. He allowed the block to pin him in. Safety was there to fill if he keeps contain.

That’s what I should’ve said. He did also whiff on a few tackles earlier tho.
