[KnightFan]

Channel 216 on Optimum in case you can't find it...

 

[RU_87]

Interesting... New Mex didn't come out for anthem

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

We here go!

 

[Blitz8RU]

damn defense sucks we keep missing assignments. not good that we start slow 3 times in a row

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Good call by the refs

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Good defense. 1St time New Mexico has to punt after getting the ball 1st all year. 3 and out.

And then we turn it over one second later....

 

[Blitz8RU]

LB wiffed on the tackle

 

[bac2therac]

Once again not prepared to play on either side of the balp..3 games now

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

7-0 New Mexico

Once again not prepared to play on either side of the balp..3 games now

really? Is it the coaching when your best star player and special teams superstar puts you in a hole?

 

[RUeric]

Inexperienced LB's and no DL penetration will make for a long day. They need to be better.

 

[Rutgers25]

Things never seem to go well early for this team. I can't recall Grant having much of an issue muffing punts throughout his career.

 

[17Q66]

You gotta be able to laugh at this.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

This is not the type of team you want to get down on early. Their style of play makes it really hard to make a come back on.

So we need to answer here or we are in trouble.

 

[TheHandOfChaos]

Here we go again! Weeeeee!

Mental..its on both coaches and players

 

[D1ESEL44]

Cioffi blew his assignment on that TD. No support behind the 2nd level.

 

[17Q66]

But it's good to see New Jersey packing the stadium at kickoff and supporting State U.

 

[TheHandOfChaos]

And why does every team in DI have a kicker that can make a touchback except for us?

 

[MikeR0102]

FML

 

[D1ESEL44]

We had the perimeter well defended. It's clear that they will not look to pass with Apodaca. They also not trying to outside the tackles.

 

[theRU]

Mental..its on both coaches and players

its on the players period. Janarion grant does not need to be coached to catch a punt. Its execution, and that something a board of fans can never identify.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Quick 3 and out... Punt coming up

 

[Blitz8RU]

it's on the players not coaching. they are too inconsistent

as i type laviano guns it underneath in double coverage. that's on the player

 

[TheHandOfChaos]

And its 3 and out before there can be a post about the offense

 

[ru75]

ok I am set up, ESPN News ap hdmi cord to tv,

 

[ru75]

hmm deja vu all over again

 

[RUSK97]

This team has a flair for the dramatic - has to play from behind.

 

[DanceAppreciationTA]

Lav had plenty of room to run for the 1st

 

[Blitz8RU]

BENCH Laviano bring in Oden

cioffi with a good single tackle

 

[BeantownKnight]

Yeah a quick three and out.

 

[D1ESEL44]

I'm getting sick of Laviano

 

[RUeric]

I guess that gaping hole to run for the first down was too much for Laviano. The throw into double coverage is a much better option. SMH

 

[17Q66]

Just ... wow.

 

[ru75]

we can cover option ok

 

[D1ESEL44]

Kid never checks off his primary target

 

[ru75]

middle is a problem
