Football GAME THREAD: Rutgers versus Syracuse

[Roy_Faulker]

Wow

Not a mouth reader but saw Sean at the end of that rant into the mic.

Thinking he’s not too pleased with his OC in this pressure situation.

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

This is ******* amateur hour with clock management

 

[Lerxst72]

OMG HOW ARE WE NOT GETTING PLAYS OFF???

 

[RUJMM78]

Syracuse with another fumble..Rutgers better make the field goal .Neither team wants to win the game.

 

[Plum Street]

No timeouts left guys

 

[AntiG]

if we're just going to run the ball up the gut, might as well just bring in Langan and then have him try Tebow jump passes

 

[rupop2]

Why do i have this feeling that GS is handcuffing Gleeson?

 

[BOCA93]

Get points

 

[drewbagel423]

Why do i have this feeling that GS is handcuffing Gleeson?

More like Vedral handcuffing the entire offense

 

[scarletbergen]

Why do i have this feeling that GS is handcuffing Gleeson?

Today, he should hand cuff him and lock him in the trunk

 

[RUSK97]

if we're just going to run the ball up the gut, might as well just bring in Langan and then have him try Tebow jump passes

The thing is Tebow was a legitimate passing threat.

 

[RU206]

We really are terrible

Temple is getting boned by Akron FWIW

Temple is winning 21-17

 

[BeantownKnight]

Both of these defenses are actually playing pretty well against the others' offensive schemes.

And, what you're seeing today is a fairly good indicator of what you are going to see in league play.

 

[AntiG]

The thing is Tebow was a legitimate passing threat.

even more reason that it would work.

 

[JerseyJohnnyRU]

He's gonna miss this FG too now

 

[MTOleBlue]

If we miss a FG again... hoo boy

 

[Caliknight]

Run run pass.

Ugh

 

[rupop2]

another hard angle fg attempt. whew...he made it

 

[rutgersguy1_rivals]

Thank goodness 2 score game

 

[Takeittothebank_rivals182311]

Oh thank god he made it

 

[iReC89]

Thank goodness.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

no one could get open?

 

[RU848789]

Exhale...

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

it's good!

Rutgers up by ten

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

OK two score game is good.

But that’s now three series where we took over at the 10, 18, & 26 yard lines. First series of the game and then two most recent series in the 4th quarter. Came away with 3 points.

 

[RUAldo]

My guess is that Schiano simply wants Vedral to manage the game with no turnovers and let the D do the heavy lifting.

 

[RUeric]

Just play solid D. That's all I ask for the remainder of this game.

 

[RUTGERS95]

anemic is too kind

 

[BillyC80]

RU up 17-7. Thank you defense.

 

[cicero grimes]

Game should have been over with 6 right after the T/O. They still have life.

 

[BeantownKnight]

All I care about right now is that we are up by 2 scores. That bodes well halfway through the 4th quarter. What doesn't bode well is that we have no more time outs.

 

[spawnofsatan]

Offense is so bad Defense won this game.

 

[rupop2]

Its a ******* mental workout being a Rutgers football fan

 

[mildone_rivals]

Schiano‘s expressions and body language reveals just how important he thinks getting this win is. He is seriously stressed out.

 

[RUTGERS95]

My guess is that Schiano simply wants Vedral to manage the game with no turnovers and let the D do the heavy lifting.

I can see that but holy cow is this offense bad. I don't think Sarah has a great D

 

[Ridge 22]

Tac shaver. LOL

 

[Plum Street]

That may have been the most pressure packed 27 yard field goal halfway through the 4th quarter ever

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

It still feels like Illinois. Didn’t we have a 10 point lead pretty late in that one?

 

[Roy_Faulker]

Yeah needs out of conference win for sure.

 

[cicero grimes]

Are there commercials on the ACCN or just short informercials. Waiting for Ron Popeil to return from the great beyond to sell me something.
