NWU VS NU 1ST HALF GAME THREAD!

[Shimmer003]

Defense wtf

 

[meo1960]

Again, DB not looking back for the ball. Gives up big catch.

They must teach that but I dont like it.

 

[Truewooper]

We need to score 28 + in the first quarter cause our second and third quarters are really bad

 

[Shimmer003]

Again, DB not looking back for the ball. Gives up big catch.

He was beat. You can only look back if you’re stride for stride. He was just trying not to give up the touchdown

 

[dinglefritz]

Here we go again. Chunk play. Then gouge us with the run

He was beat. Just trying to catch up.

 

[meo1960]

NW qb had all day to throw. Good coverage, incomplete.

 

[dinglefritz]

Damn. He has ALL day.

 

[Shimmer003]

Giving up 3 there hurts. Can’t let NW hang around.

 

[dinglefritz]

Giving up 3 there hurts. Can’t let NW hang around.

I’m assuming our DB got caught peeking in to the backfield on that pass play.

 

[dinglefritz]

Man we miss Nash and Ty.

 

[HUNTAK2380]

yep, maryland and minny qb's were very accurate passing vs us....can't let northwestern's QB be comfortable back there....gonna take some chances and blitz

 

[Truewooper]

Man we miss Nash and Ty.

Correct! Sad that again we can't follow up great DTs. With another Great DT. Really makes having a standout defense a lot easier.

 

[Shimmer003]

I’m assuming our DB got caught peeking in to the backfield on that pass play.

Probably. But regardless I feel like this defense struggle to string together consecutive stops. They particularly struggle to get off the field when another team is trying to answer one of our scores. It’s frustrating. A 3 and out there up 7 at home would be a tough spot for NW to be in. Now, they’re still in it.

 

[DerHusker]

LETS GO HUSKERS!!!

 

[dinglefritz]

Correct! Sad that again we can't follow up great DTs. With another Great DT. Really makes having a standout defense a lot easier.

I’m not even sure they were great. They were very good and could beat doubles at times. Just really strong in the middle.

 

[DerHusker]

1ST DOWN MY JOHNSON!!

 

[Truewooper]

I swear if we stop running the ball this game. DH will be the new BC.

 

[RBigredMax1]

Mikhai dishing it out some

 

[dinglefritz]

Wow. Nelson just made somethin from nothin

 

[Truewooper]

I’m not even sure they were great. They were very good and could beat doubles at times. Just really strong in the middle.

Fair Enough!

 

[DerHusker]

1ST DOWN MY JOHNSON!!!

 

[RBigredMax1]

If we are going to have a run option at qb bring in lateef

 

[dinglefritz]

Damn Mozee. Put your head down and get the first down

 

[RedMyMind2.0]

I swear if we stop running the ball this game. DH will be the new BC.

Barney Cotton?
Bill Callahan?

 

[Shimmer003]

Mozzee almost cost us big time. Got hit and tried to bounce it rather than lower his head and just get the first.

 

[TouchdownTom]

can’t get sacked if they just let Emmett take over game.

 

[Shimmer003]

Damn Mozee. Put your head down and get the first down

We were inches from that being a disastrous moment if EJ doesn’t pick that up on 4th

 

[dinglefritz]

I would have snapped the ball there. I’m not sure we actually got the first down. Why give them 5 minutes to review it?

 

[Mack In Motion]

Damn Mozee. Put your head down and get the first down

Yep. This. Know where the marker is.

 

[4plateBencher]

We were inches from that being a disastrous moment if EJ doesn’t pick that up on 4th

So NW gets the ball on their own 20 and that is a "disastrous moment" to you?

Can we please stop with the hyperbole on here?

 

[Truewooper]

Barney Cotton?
Bill Callahan?

Bill Callahan

 

[MrScary13]

Pathetic route run by Barney

 

[DerHusker]

1ST DOWN DOUBLE H!!

 

[Poster FKA schuele]

After this many years on TV, how is Helfrich still so terrible?

Mutters to himself like a 90-year-old man in a nursing home.

 

[dinglefritz]

Damn. Can we come up something other than Haarberg on 4th and one. Now the review.

 

[4plateBencher]

Finally we use the tush push.

 

[Mack In Motion]

Damn. Can we come up something other than Haarberg on 4th and one. Now the review.

Nothing that can overturn it.

Burned his challenge on a 0% chance of overturn.

 

[Truewooper]

I actually love Haarberg. But he's not really a Tebow qb. He struggles with these power plays. This might be the first one I remember where he gets it. He's closer to a sweep speed qb despite his size.

 

[4plateBencher]

FIRST DOWN HH!
