you guys you guys are nuts, how in the world could you be excited for the season after watching this game. This game was close we could have pulled this one out and the coaching and play calling sucked which means it's going to suck for the rest of the year


Really?? I don't know how you can't be at least somewhat pleased with this game. We saw an improved team today. We weren't going to beat Washington.

Last year, our QBs could not hit a guy in the flat or in stride. How can u not see him in is an improvement? We did not trust our frosh to attempt a pass in entire games.... QB play will be fine this year, is he great? Probably not, but better than what we have had

Sorry Pal. Seen both play. Gio is better on every way.

Well the game didn't hurt us with the recruits who were there, either. And Politi & Co. won't destroy us, so that helps with building momentum.

Disappointed but still encouraged by tonight. We need better consistent play from both OL and DL. Bolin is fine.

Does Bolin have a deep ball?
I'm sure he does but Jerry didn't call enough play action to loosen the coverage. He ran 1 I think and it was a completion. Also Bolin doesn't look-off his receivers as well as someone as experienced as he is should. He threw 1 Laviano-like "panic" INT. and 1 Nova-like "drill it into tight coverage" INT. I was hoping to see some J. Lewis in mop-up.

Bolin is not elite. He's good but he won't win games by himself. Hiwever anyone who thinks he's the problem why we don't throw enough, then you're simply not paying attention.

Hey RU Mike73

All I did was state a fact....If you could not see that you are an idiot......Clock management at the half was terrible bottom line! They play for a tie and it bit us in the *** in the *** at the end of the half and we got nothing.

Let me get this straight playbook will open up, we kept it conservative? wtf is wrong with u? had a chance to win at home against ranked team after miserable season and the coached keep it conservative?

If true, fire them now

Gio is better, bolin lacks arm strength

Clock management needs work
The lines looked great, backers, etc
D scheme in 2nd had too many holes

Kids played well though fespite the handcuffs

My post says that Jerry is the reason we didn't throw enough. Bolin staring down receivers is a different problem.

The team definitely looked improved. Two questions as I don't want to start a thread.

1) I couldn't make the game and could not find the game on WOR. There was a sportstalk show on in the 2nd quarter and we were getting a few props from the announcers. I though all of our broascasts were on WOR (710AM). There was not another game on instead.

2) Sincerely, were there any issues with the hot tub or pirate ship? Any jokes about such on tv?

The hot tubs caught a lot of joking on the TV coverage.

I thought that time management (except in the last minutes where they didn't get to the line quickly) was successful for RU. They consistently snapped the ball with 5 or fewer seconds on the clock and minimized the number of Washington possessions in the game. Ash said this was a strategy and they achieved it pretty well for game 1. In one series they reversed course and went to quick counts so that Washington couldn't substitute packages. They did this pretty well too.

well you well you guys would bend over backwards to make an excuse for for anything that you can regarding this guy. That was a game we could have had the play-calling was atrocious to coaching wasn't very good the kids gave it their all and this loss is not on the kids.

Fair enough. I don't think it was realistic to pin all hope to Grant. We certainly found an impressive RB in Gus Edwards and a solid tandem in Edwards/Martin. A very different outcome from last year's game and I'm sure a measure of respect from the Washington players after the final gun.

Probably cause im the only one here with a clue

Uw is not a top 10 team
Coaching and playcalling was awful
Line play much improved
Talent level is not different from last year
Bolin needs to be replaced by gio
