RUTGERS vs Maryland Game Thread :

[Ridge 22]

Why don't we punt out of bounds?

Because then our 20 yard punts are 10 yarders

 

[AreYouNUTS]

So RU has enough talent to compete, Ash just doesn't know how pull out wins against the Iowa and Minnesota's . Illinois is another school that supposedly lacks talent, but their HC found a way to win against Rutgers.
Indiana isn't a powerhouse, but was good enough to beat RU in a close game. The powerhouses mauled RU like they did in the Flood years.
Ash deserves a mulligan for this season, not praise because he lost some close games.
Some of those games might have been lost because of poor coaching decisions.
Believe in Ash all you want, but don't expect the same blind faith that most RU fans had at the beginning of this season to continue after seeing the product Ash puts on the field every game.

Iowa? REALLY? Yeah it was Ash' fault that Laviano didn't make a pitch a 2-year old could make. It was Ash' fault that Laviano didn't hit a wide-open Harris, twice, for TD's.

Illinois? TURNOVERS!!!

Nowhere did I "praise" this staff, btw, I just find the bashing to be ignorant and unrealistic at this point.

 

[RU205]

Are Hester and Hampton on the punt team ,??

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

Entire middle of the field WIDE OPEN

 

[AreYouNUTS]

SLOWEST TEAM IN AMERICA.

 

[Rokodesh]

Game. Ohio state time

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

This team is gutless, spineless, and has absolutely no desire to make any effort.

I can't tell if they are that slow, or just purposely isn't hustling.

 

[G- RUnit]

Nice contain!

 

[brgRC90]

Jt Barrett tends not to show up in big games...what's happening with our team?

 

[Caliknight]

God we are slow. That reverse TD is a perfect example. Watch that over and over.

No talent.

 

[Extra Point]

The umpire tackled or big defensive back lol.

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

Anyone see the one official totally layout one of our defenders?

 

[Block R]

Nice contain!

Morris in particular over pursued and then allowed the ref to block him. Ugh

We're slow REGARDLESS of anything else. Very slow. Funny thing is I got into an argument with one poster, in August, who was trying to tell me that "unit-by-unit we are one of the fastest teams in the B1G..." It was rather comical. Had us as THE fasted RB and WR position groups!

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Okay let's see if we can:

- get the KO past the 30 and

- get some points before the half

Lol

 

[Knightmoves]

So hard to find anything positive to say about this team.

 

[G- RUnit]

Martin no talent!

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Lol

can't make that shit up lol!

 

[BillyC80]

All of a sudden Martin is our entire offense, after being practically ignored all year.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

These moron announcers think it's 4th down...

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

Announcers saying it's 4th down and 6? But yet the down marker still says 3rd and 6?

 

[AreYouNUTS]

All of a sudden Martin is our entire offense, after being practicall ignored all year.

Here we go again....He was INJURED. Wasn't 100% until last week, hence, wasn't getting the reps in practice nor ready for the in games.

 

[Abro1975]

If they are blitzing so much, why not keep a blocking back in ?

 

[Block R]

Martin no talent!

Who said that? People (including myself) have said the team has 'no talent'. Of course, literally, there are a few talented players on the roster. But not nearly enough of them relative to everyone else we play.

 

[BillyC80]

I stand corrected.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

@zappaa remember what you told me last March, about our OL? Spot-on he was.

 

[MYHATINTHERING]

Guess md has boatloads more talent too...lol

Coaches are awful here, poor kids

 

[Block R]

If they are blitzing so much, why not keep a blocking back in ?

Do we have a back that can reliably block?

 

[AreYouNUTS]

It's his mantra.

 

[ru-baby]

Something to see Hicks and Rettig sitting next to each other with no involvement.

 

[G- RUnit]

Wow! Poor rugby tackling. No hustle desire motivation. Team just quit. Not good.

 

[RUin2WIN]

New drinking game opportunity here. Take a shot everytime a Rutgers O-lineman misses his assignment

 

[RUSK97]

Dodged one right there

 

[MYHATINTHERING]

Do we have a back that can reliably block?

Yes we do

Anyone who plays this game has a hospital visit in their future.

[roll]

Anyone see the one official totally layout one of our defenders?

Actually he laid out our LB pretty good. The Ref was standing still and our guy gets flattened. Man are we weak.

You should know better than to get into a serious debate with rutgersal. that one's on you.

 

[JQRU91]

Maryland has 180 yards rushing already at 8.2 yards per carry.

No Ass on Gio
