Football LIVE GAME THREAD: RU vs. UM

[MS-RU]

Ash realizes his job's in jeopardy...

Goes with an awful playcall, par for the course.

 

[scarletbergen]

At least he didn't punt...

LOL

 

[mdk02]

Iowa up 17-0 after 1.

 

[TonyLieske]

I like the call even though it didn't work out. Shame Ash wasn't this aggressive earlier in his tenure.

 

[Knightmoves]

Art’s rollout on 4th and goal reminds me of Laviano vs Iowa in same situation a few years ago.

Same result.

 

[bethlehemfan]

The way our defense is playing, we needed 7 there to have a chance. I like the decision to go for it but didn't love the play call.

We don’t have a chance. Better to have something positive. Get points imo.

 

[RU848789]

Hey, we forced a punt!!

 

[bitnez]

Defense picked up for offense. Good job

 

[ru66]

hooray

 

[mildone_rivals]

We need to create some turnovers to have any shot.

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

in before the defensive holding penalty

 

[KnightFan]

Give him credit for trying!!! ... at least UM is pinned deep.

My money on drive the length of the field...

 

[mildone_rivals]

Good job holding the ball.

 

[Eaton Beaver]

Ash is a complete joke

 

[scarlet_ty_rivals]

in before the defensive holding penalty

Lol. Sad but true at least we lucked out on this one.

 

[shields]

What does three points accomplish? Like last week kicking field goals.

 

[rurichdog]

Ok, why would you not fair catch that?

 

[Salvi's Headband]

Nice three and out.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Michigan isn't really all that great. It is just that we are hopeless.

 

[mildone_rivals]

Ash is a complete joke

Okay. Do you feel better now?

 

[BillyC80]

POINTSNEEDED

Exactly. Was saying take the points. Can’t really fault the try though, especially since we could have gotten either a first down or a touchdown.

 

[bethlehemfan]

Ok, why would you not fair catch that?

I think it bounced. Running up and catching on the fly is risky. Kid actually made a good pay there

 

[scarletbergen]

Okay. Do you feel better now?

Hobbs is a complete joke!

 

[RUTrack94]

Honestly I would kick the fg.

Holder of the year needs to pad his stats!!!

 

[Eaton Beaver]

Okay. Do you feel better now?

Yes thanks. He’s a loser. LOSER

 

[Rt18traffic]

Surprised no one commented that Art looked a little woozy coming off the field. That hit was clearly helmet to helmet.

 

[NickRU714]

4th down play call - was listening in the car so didnt see it.
Love that Ash went for it.
Sounds like McN called a bad play.

Did McN at least put both IP and BS out there to make the defense think?

Was it just a straight QB rollout-run?

 

[HeywoodGiant]

The red guys are fighting. No one is rolling over

 

[bethlehemfan]

Surprised no one commented that Art looked a little woozy coming off the field. That hit was clearly helmet to helmet.

I don’t believe the helmet made contact.

 

[mildone_rivals]

Holding. They are way too fast for us.

 

[mildone_rivals]

O’Neil tried but cannot go.

 

[Rt18traffic]

Announcer with a bullsh*t comment that they wondered about the hit. Must have been during the tv time out.

 

[Ridge 22]

Only 14-0 so far. Highly competitive game by Ash standards

 

[RUinPAC10land]

Refs aren’t giving Rutgers a break. Lots of late hits on Sit not being called.

 

[theRU]

We have nobody on the oline... i mean in sorry but we cant block if our life depended on it

 

[OJRutgers]

Clown show!

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

Holding. They are way too fast for us.

O'Neal couldn't get to him with his bad wheel and he kinda hooked him. Still, wake me up when Mich gets called next time one of their OL hooks one of our guys...geez Mich grabbed jersey on one play and no whistle.

 

[saltpepperketchup]

Awful play call. Use Blackshear as a decoy

4th down play call - was listening in the car so didnt see it.

Blackshear was used as a decoy and sit rolled the opposite direction. Brilliant.

 

[RU848789]

2nd delay of game and they show Ash scribbling on his pad - wonder if he was putting together his packing list...

 

[NickRU714]

What does three points accomplish? Like last week kicking field goals.

My favorite is OSU last year.
Down 42-0 we kicked a FG from OSU 23 on 4th and 5.

Everyone screamed "the FG is a good call. No way Ash can recruit after being shutout again by OSU. That 3pts is important."

Because 52-3 would look so much better to recruits than 52-0.
