Football GAME THREAD: Rutgers vs. Temple

[RUTGERS95]

Vedral - Opening day aside, no way a 5th year player should look this shaky after a few series. Just his body language makes me nervous.

You have to ignore his response as it is beyond ignorant and especially so considering the previous coaching staff here

 

[koleszar]

I think Temple figured out Vedral is not a deep threat

We’re not really running deep routes. I’m at the game and everting is 15 to 20 yds. In

 

[RUTGERS95]

Watching on Fox Sports app

Me too

 

[Scarlet Blind_rivals]

Disappointed with 26-7 = better times ahead

It's not disappointing, just worrysome, if it wasn't for the defense and special teams this would be a close game. Offense is not moving the ball much. Safety 2pts, long kickoff FG, other 3 TDs off TOs on very short fields.

37 plays 135 yds vs 127 yds for Temple
Our longest play 14 yds.

 

[RUTRINI_rivals]

I'd like to see a Langan drive, or Simon or Snyder get a drive here.

There will be an opportunity to see a backup QB in the 4th Quarter.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Its not disappointing

QB play is my disappointment

Outstanding defense for most of the first half.Offense was anemic because Rutgers still lacks a quarterback that can complete passes downfield.Vedral was not impressive against a mediocre opponent.

 

[RUTRINI_rivals]

Have you seen his yards per completion?

Yuch

He only averaged more than 10 ypc against Michigan and Indiana last year

this isn’t a guy who has been slinging it all over the field

How much of this is about the game plan

 

[redking]

Backup QB needs a series or two. And I'm not talking about Langan.

 

[CountingSheep]

Nice to see you have a comfortable lead. Please maintain this into the 4th Q and run the ball a lot in the second half so I don't have to find what channel they're starting the Iowa game on. Kthxseeyouagaininbasketballseason

 

[Scarlet Blind_rivals]

They either have to look deep early 3rd quarter to get the safeties out of the box or switch QBs. Right now, we can't keep moving at a snails pace on offense, Temple will get back in the game. They aren't scared of Vedral's arm.

 

[fatsam98]

Their qb was limping a little coming back out just now

Fox Sports never asked me just go to the game and hit Live TV and it will bring it right up

 

[WhichReligionIsRight]

Looking at the halftime stats, pretty even except for one item (aside from the score) - turnovers. What a change Ash to Schiano.

 

[RUinBoston]

Their qb was limping a little coming back out just now

Yeah...that's called the 'Willy Wonka'. Or to RU fans...the 'Ben Mauk'.

 

[WhichReligionIsRight]

run, run, run, play action, run.

 

[mdk02]

Most of you are missing the 2 reasons RU hasn't completed anything deep. Everybody see's Verdral is off. But what nobody mentions the the Temple DBs have played well.

 

[BillyC80]

I really thought that pass hit the ground first.

 

[MS-RU]

D starting to miss a ton of tackles

 

[Barnaby&Neill]

I thought we’d start teeing off on this guy when he tweaked his foot or ankle in the first half; instead he’s had all day in the pocket ever since

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

defense came out ICE COLD from halftime.

 

[RutHut_rivals]

We need to wake up.

 

[MS-RU]

Well that was terrible..if the offense doesn't get it going, we are going to be losing in no time. Wayyyy to easy.

Poor tackling and no pressure on the QB.

 

[TGonzRU_rivals]

Turrible series.

 

[leftoright]

Owls have covered the spread

 

[BillyC80]

So it’s official. Temple’s offense is betters than ours. We need an offensive spark, pronto.

 

[WhichReligionIsRight]

Temple O-line is supposed to be their strength - showed on that series. RU D needs to step up next series.

 

[RUTRINI_rivals]

Flash Back to Teddy Bridgewater...don't get beat by the one legged QB.

 

[rurichdog]

Ok, so defense is going to sit back in zone, and Temple QB obviously prepped for it. Come on, boys. Need to answer here

 

[Barnaby&Neill]

Was that a designed QB run for an injuredQB?

They got the score but may have lost Mathis for the game

 

[RUSCFORMERLYRULOU]

Need to wake up. Not getting pressure and there are huge holes for owls to run through. Let’s see if the offense can wake up.

 

[Scarlet Blind_rivals]

Worried about a 3 and Out here

 

[Rokodesh]

Can vedral not throw the ball longer than 4 yards? What are they doing?

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

Very concerned

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

No bueno

 

[RUSCFORMERLYRULOU]

Not impressed with gleeson play calling today. First time I’ve felt that way.

 

[sct1111]

What is this offense?

 

[rurichdog]

This is so stressful to watch. I'm getting the slow motion car wreck in progress feeling.

 

[BillyC80]

Our play calling is very suspect, and I suspect it’s due at least in part to Vedral’s limitations. Gotta get that addressed.
