Rutgers vs Indiana / Game Thread
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
Covered the spread, and shut out IU in the 2nd half ... IU needed a 4th down to get a TD ... better than expected, though IU won the stats battle ... made me believe we would get that final stop which is something ... might be able to beat Illinois.
IU coach said they were going for it regardless and that leaving 2 scores off the board made it closer. They ran more in 2nd and wanted to get the run game some more work. We are work now,, unreal.
The offsides is something a lot of kids would have done, it was a nice move by the WR with 2 seconds left. I'm not going to put that on Ash.
We did have a ton of penalties, execution was not great, playcalling was mixed, kids played hard
Make no mistake about it however, IU is not good on the D line so let's temper the score somewhat

Team did play hard. But they are supposed to play hard. Ash does not have the horses or coaching ability at this juncture.
opening drive benefited from 2 crucial IU penalties and we capitalize. That gave the team fire but damn, this is a bad team when you can't beat a team with no qb pressure
Year 3.
1-4.
Lose to Indiana at home by 7.
And some people on this board are happy?
Ash and Hobbs have done a marvelous job setting the bar so low. Can’t wait to hear Ash update his thoughts about bowl eligibility at the post game presser.
1-4.

Yeah, something about how losing to Indiana by only a TD means players have bought into Ash's 'system'
Not if they quit... and not if CA had lost the locker room......... which were really the 2 biggest questions I've had the last two weeks.....
so, yeah.... I think it was kind of a big deal...... No moral victories.... but, the "fire ash yesterday" crowd must be very depressed today.....
Depressed? You’re acting like we won the game. We lost . The only thing that matters are the results .
1-4 (0-1)
This is how bad things have gotten? That we are proud we didn’t get throttled by Indiana at home. This program is a mess right now.
We finally showed some signs of life. That said, QB still throws into coverage to his primary receiver, defense can't cover and misses too many tackles, Ash still burns timeouts early in the half, and we have too many penalties.
Backwards and sometime it looks flat footed. Hard to tell with all the pass rush bodies around him, but not always moving forward. More obvious on longer passes to the sidelines. Practice, practice, practice and a QB coach watching.
And We missed a wide open receiver (by 5 yards) for a sure score. We could have won this game.
7 was lucky, people are forgetting the 2 scores IU got taken off and they changed their tempo and strategy in the 2nd. Their coach said as much after the game focusing more on the clock and running ala the **** GS used to do thus keeping it closer than it should have been.
