52 points in a row fir Rutgers even when not playing well..,,,,, we are light yrs better than Howard
How many times do we have to hear "the sky is falling" fans only to see them look like idiots by the end of the game. The game is four quarters for a reason.
Because we have a supremely football illiterate fan base who excel only at whining.The OP is Phi Beta Kappa of that ilk.
Op should have gone out on a high note after his lookalike last week and not posted ever again.
I had very serious doubts in the first half because Rutgers should not have played so flat. It was like they didn't get any sleep last night and they were napping on the field. Saying that Howard had better talent looks silly now.
Watching Ash on the sidelines, he was coaching up a storm with individual players coming off the field. The team is being taught and, hopefully, learning.
Just like the person getting all excited when the horse they picked is winning after 1/4 mile (in a one mike race).
YOU CANNOT DENY that in most of the first half, Rutgers looked like the slower, less talented team. Everyone saw the same thing. In the second half, obviously our plan to run the ball almost exclusively and our size/conditioning wore them out, but this is 2 games in a row that we came out of the gate looking like a D2 team before evening out into some kind of equilibrium. If not for a couple of penalties and a Grant kickoff return, Howard, --HOWARD---, would have been leading 21-0 after the first quarter. Bash the OP all you want, but at the time thats what we all saw and if we cant figure out how to start games with the right game plan and with more spring in our steps, 2-9 or even 1-10 are real possibilities.
Why look at it that way though? If we continue to dominate in the 2nd half like we did today after adjustments, 11-1 is a pssibility.
Look at the big picture, not just the negatives. We absolutely dominated like we were supposed to.
I passed that along to coach Ash. He said he apologizes for not being perfect already.
We dominated in the end, but for 20+ minutes I saw a big 10 team get pushed around by Howard on both sides of the ball. Can anyone deny that? That shouldnt happen even for 3 minutes and the fact it did reminded me of Shea/early schiano teams. Thats all I was saying. Glad we came back but seriously if you arent concerned about UNM next week I dont know what game you were watching.
On a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is the patience of a saint, and 10 is wanting everything yesterday, where would you rank your level of impatience?
A ranked team Georgia beat an FCS team by 2 today..
Shit happens...relax. we dominated.
Embarrassed yourself today. No way around it. We scored 52 unanswered points after coming out with a Washington hangover. You only happy at 68-0 or higher?
