Rutgers vs Indiana / Game Thread

[formerlyknownasrutgers100]

Geez. How did we not get that fumble???!!!

it's our talent we just don't have guys who can dive on a ball

 

[RU_SOB93]

Scary thing is next year is going to be even worse, this 3 year minimum rebuild

 

[rucoe89]

Ugh. Game over. Bummer. We tried. Just are not good enough to compete with the middle of the B1G East at this time.

 

[Caliknight]

Indiana 5-4. Pretty good for them.

Our team is so devoid of even close to acceptable talent that is laughable. Nothing. Nada. We had Grant. That's it.

 

[Knightmoves]

Seriously Austin had so many chances to scoop and land on that fumble.

This team does not make enough plays. Big plays. But it's been that way for awhile for us.

 

[jvgrad02]

We should fold the football program and stop the suffering

 

[RUboston]

How could they not be ready for that play. The RB just floats outside and no one is near him. They didn't even fake a handoff.

 

[Mikemarc]

Wow so poorly coached....

Disagree.

 

[G- RUnit]

4th winnable game our coaching staff gave away.

 

[RUinPAC10land]

They accidentally showed a Hayden Rettig picture. #freeRettigifRescignoinjured

Turay realized he screwed that one up.

 

[miketd1]

Honestly, defense and specials have been okay.

Keep giving away a short field, you're bound to break.

 

[ScarletSince86]

And that is why turay doesn't play.

 

[RUaMoose_rivals]

In college it's where the ball is.


Have you been watching? Some of our players are terrible. DBs that can't defend a pass, OLs that can't block, LBs that can't tackle. Ash & Co need to improve but not much you can do to mask all the talent deficiencies out there.

And Indiana is loaded with talent up and down their roster. They're a FB powerhouse! !!! C'mon man get your head out of your Ash.

 

[KnightsofChrome]

You know,....the football IQ of this team is really, really bad. Why in the hell didn't Austin just fall on that fumble!?!?!?!?!? He tries to pick it up and run! What a complete moron.

 

[RUbacker]

And that is why turay doesn't play.

Turay sucks

 

[formerlyknownasrutgers100]

And that is why turay doesn't play.

why would you have a defensive end covering a rb out of the flat

 

[G- RUnit]

Disagree.

You be wrong. Timeouts. Indiana giving game away. Just see that post . Omg.

 

[miketd1]

Ok. THATS poor coaching. WtF specials..?

 

[ArminRU]

You should be banned, but I'll ignore you instead.

 

[KnightsofChrome]

Turay, shouldn't have been in that position. The fumble should have been recovered, fallen on!

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

So much for that Floridian talent in Sneed.

Can't even pick up the ball off the turf without falling over.

 

[Rokodesh]

Turay shouldn't be dropping back after not playing all year

 

[Vince2310]

This sucks - our recruiting class is going to fall apart. This 2H is on the coaches. Indiana made adjustments to us and our OC had no idea how to change.

 

[Caliknight]

Squib kick we still can't get passed the 10.

 

[newell138]

3rd. IDK about Illinois

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

Mehringer seems to be lovey dovey with the E-W running. Not enough N-S today.

 

[ntlrock1]

Indiana 5-4. Pretty good for them.

Our team is so devoid of even close to acceptable talent that is laughable. Nothing. Nada. We had Grant. That's it.

No talent on either side of ball + brand new coaching staff, some of whom are obviously not qualified (OC, jury still out on Ash. I'm not impressed so far) and this is what you get. A **** show.

There will be less fans in the seats and less hype about RU football. Hope we can hang onto this pretty good recruiting class though it would not surprise me to see a pretty large exodus of recruits...

Speak for yourself buddy. This what it's all about, trials and tribulations! You might try something safe, like reading a novel by some female writer.

 

[Mikemarc]

Its talent.

 

[Caliknight]

And Indiana is loaded with talent up and down their roster. They're a FB powerhouse! !!! C'mon man get your head out of your Ash.

Way more talent across the board then we have. Not one of our receivers would play on their team. Not one.

 

[newell138]

Need WR badly

 

[Caliknight]

Its talent.

Haha, timeout. This G unit dude is a sports moron.

 

[KnightsofChrome]

Ash, doesn't go after the Ref's enough. Almost, like he still doesn't seem to have the confidence or a good enough reputation.

 

[Knightmoves]

IU QB Richard Lagos has thrown for almost 400 yards passing today.

 

[ArminRU]

Gio has not thrown the ball well today

 

[ntlrock1]

Disagree.

Regarding coaching being an issue....???

Ash and Mehringer have been...ahem how should I say, not good.

For a DB coach our secondary sucks. That's on Ash. Took Ash til game 6 or whatever to find a QB we had on the roster all along and mehringer isn't creative, savvy or deceptive on play calling. Those are facts.

 

[ArminRU]

This sucks - our recruiting class is going to fall apart. This 2H is on the coaches. Indiana made adjustments to us and our OC had no idea how to change.

Get a hold of yourself, Christ

 

[billhilf]

Gotta figure out how to win some of these games, it's like we have no chance in close games. So disappointing.

 

[Caliknight]

IU QB Richard Lagos has thrown for almost 400 yards passing today.

And most of that was their receivers making plays for him.

And our DB's suck.

This is Indiana's F game. And they still beat us. This isn't a 3 year. It's a 5 year rebuild.
