Official Toledo Game Thread

Minter had that TD if he just kept both hands on the ball.

 

[JesseTU]

President is young... But ~10 completed passes for a game is very weak. He may have more rushing yards than passing yards.

Easily 50% of our plays are up the middle and that has been a diminishing return since they stopped fearing our passing game. We need to either find some defense or truly be an explosive offense.

Now, that one was on the receiver...

 

[TUGrad06]

Wow, thats a TD as soon as his foot touches

Disagree. Didn't make a football move. Didn't complete the catch. If that was the other team you'd say the same thing.

 

[TU_BLA]

And Toledo starts doing to stall and fake an injury to slow things down. Ridiculous.

 

[nevadanatural]

This is 4 down territory as far as I'm concerned.

 

[TulsaRising1]

LAST. TEAM . TO. SCORE. WINS.

 

[TU_BLA]

Your turn defense. Try to make them use more than 5 plays to score

 

[TulsaRising1]

No freaking words

 

[TU_BLA]

My God. Can we look any more inept. That's one Jones . Low kick

 

[panicstricken]

unfreaking real

 

[JesseTU]

Does that count as another 100 yards of offense?

Ffs.

 

[jesterondirt]

That seems about right

 

[Original TULSAFAN]

Tulsa is a bad TEAM.
Very disappointed in Coach Monty. His team looks bad. Bad special teams. Bad defense. Good offense. But everything else sucks and sucks really bad.

 

[ShaneB72]

What a **** show.

 

[jesterondirt]

Now i have a question, when that dude ran back into the endzone to clear the line, if we had tackled him would it have been a safety worth 2 points?

 

[nevadanatural]

1 point lead instead of a 4 point lead, that was big.

 

[TU_BLA]

Seriously need to go Pulaski Academy here on out and onside kick every time. Doesn't matter because the other team can go 80 yards or 45 yards to score every time.

No

No

 

[TUGrad06]

Wow, a 3 man rush for a sack. Ok.

 

[TU_BLA]

Holy cow...a 3rd down stop!!! Not only did Mouton get the sack, he was also horse-collared by the o-lineman

 

[bankythehack]

Where is Shindelar? Why isn't he playing?

 

[TU_BLA]

Where is Shindelar? Why isn't he playing?

He was in earlier.

 

[JesseTU]

Some good news - I don't think that 100 yard return counts against us for total defense. I mean, we almost certainly still dead last, but that has to help anyway.

I'm hostile.

Seriously though, once they learned to stack the box they've stuffed us. Just daring us to do something different, and we can't. Our O line is good, Brewer is good... But when they know what's coming it's tough.

How's that a "good" offense?

 

[URedskin54]

No

Would have actually been a 1 point safety

edit: i think....maybe

 

[HuffyCane]

No

Now i have a question, when that dude ran back into the endzone to clear the line, if we had tackled him would it have been a safety worth 2 points?

No bevause the ball crossed the line of scrimmage on the kick. If the kick did not cross the line, then yes.

 

[Tulsafanzz]

Family health issue.

 

[jesterondirt]

No bevause the ball crossed the line of scrimmage on the kick. If the kick did not cross the line, then yes.

But it was fielded and then advanced into the endzone. Seems odd

 

[TU_BLA]

That's a heck of a throw from President

 

[TU_BLA]

There you go CHAD PRESIDENT!

We have 3 rushers over 100 yds

 

[TUGrad06]

There we go. Their pass defense gave wayyyyyy too much cushion on that 2nd and 20. That looks like our defense. Great keeper on the option. Wish he'd keep more often.

 

[JesseTU]

President is athletic as hell. If he can calm down on the passing, he will kill it. And man, if we can get this much rushing now, of the passing game can keep them honest it will be huge.

Come on defense. Please don't make me drink more.

 

[nevadanatural]

Now we need another stop.

Yeah, it's the defense that makes us drink so much!

 

[TUGrad06]

That's a heck of a throw from President

I mean, he completed a 10 yard pass...which I guess is better than his normal completions, but a "heck" of a pass? k. I'm just happy he's keeping it more often.

 

[TulsaRising1]

I wonder if the Toledo board is saying the same stuff about their defense

 

[TU_BLA]

It was against his body and the way he was running.

 

[nevadanatural]

They're killing me.

 

[TU_BLA]

They're killing me.

Our safeties are clueless

 

[Original TULSAFAN]

Next to nothing on the pass rush. Nothing.
Jimmie Johnson's thinking (which I loathe Johnson, he's Satan, but the man can coach).
Send 3 - if you can't hit the QB every play then...
Send 4 - if you can't hit the QB every play then...
Send 5, and so on...

ALWAYS bring pressure. Every time.
