First-half thread for the B1G Championship Game

[Deeringfish]

Lucky on that one

 

[LansingCat_rivals315357]

Call the pick-six play coach

 

[Figrating]

Looked like it coulda been caught as well as int'd

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

Dodged a bullet there!

 

[Deeringfish]

A stop here before the Half would be huge

 

[Fanaticat98]

Aren’t we going to the wildcat far too much?

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

I don't mind the throw. The player was open; that's one that Ramsey shouldn't throw away. Just a little overthrown.

That 3rd down conversion was a route that a lot of teams use, esp with bigger WRs. Stem as if running a corner route, then motor down, and come back to QB, essentially walking off outside leveraged coverage. If the passing lane is clear, the ball can be delivered on time.

 

[NU Houston]

Not loving the wildcat formation. Unless they are going to pass out of it or set something else up.

It's getting pretty stale at this point. Maybe Coach Jake has something up his sleeve for the second half.

 

[LansingCat_rivals315357]

Setting something up

 

[CatManTrue]

Bowser and Anderson have no carries yet. Wow.

Keep fighting Cats.

 

[Deeringfish]

Mitchel having a great game.

 

[IAWildcat79]

No reason for Hampton to commit penalty there...he was in good position.

Also, Mitchell has been solid in Newsome's absence. That's the 2nd "flash" play I remember

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

That flag was the right call, unfortunately. Didn't need to interfere there.

It’s keeping OSU honest and setting up some counter plays. OSU has only 1 DB on the trips WR side.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Figrating]

YYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[IAWildcat79]

OMG BJo!!!!!

 

[ThirdCoast_rivals291969]

Holy moley what an interception!!!!

 

[Deeringfish]

"You will never see a better pick than that."

 

[NUCat320]

Shades of McManis-Ginn. Best freshman in the country.

 

[Alan Smithee_rivals156293]

Wow. That’s all I got.

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

WOW! HIGHLIGHT REEL!

 

[Rodenthater]

Win the 2ndhalf win the big ten!

 

[DaCat]

Joseph!!! Amazing pick!!!

 

[SLUCATS210]

oh my lord Brandon Joseph

 

[Alan Smithee_rivals156293]

If we give up our normal amount of points in the second half, we’re going to have to score at least a FG to keep the lead.

 

[BFDCat]

Unbelievable, BJo is a stud.

 

[Deeringfish]

Also, Mitchell has been solid in Newsome's absence. That's the 2nd "flash" play I remember

Ya know, Fitz is always talking about competition. Maybe MITCHEL IS PART OF Newsome's success.

 

[LansingCat_rivals315357]

We start with the ball!

 

[Deeringfish]

We start with the ball!

yes!!!!!!!!

 

[zbag51]

That’ll be on sportscenter

 

[kaTNap]

WOW! HIGHLIGHT REEL!

A half for the ages ... "football players had not come down from Evanston -- Wildcats would be a better name"

 

[DaCat]

Joseph is leading the nation in interceptions. That was the best one so far.

 

[HawkCat]

Holy moly! What a first half! That INT by Joseph was nothing short of incredible.

 

[corbi2961]

No reason for Hampton to commit penalty there...he was in good position.

Also, Mitchell has been solid in Newsome's absence. That's the 2nd "flash" play I remember

Great play by our young DB but it’s time we give credit to their position coach. All of these young kids are very prepared. Coach Mac, your table is ready! He is going to be our next Defensive Coordinator and he deserves it.

 

[Alan Smithee_rivals156293]

And Hank just became a Broyles finalist after that half.

 

[zbag51]

And Urban complimenting our FG drive.

 

[nickcat4]

I try not to drink before 6:00 PM but I'm finding toquilla in my coffee is helping me get through this exciting game.

You are not the only one

 

[NUera]

Joseph!!! Amazing pick!!!

That was some Xavian Howard ish right there. Wow.
