Rutgers vs Michigan / Game Thread

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

Why didn't Zach Allen slide when he got past the first down marker? sigh...

Yeh, I was yelling at the TV for him to just go down, knew we were in trouble when he was still fighting for that extra 1/2 yard.

 

[Rokodesh]

Can we put rettig or gio in? No more Allen or a Laviano ever again

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

HOW FREAKING HARD IS IT TO SQUARE YOUR SHOULDERS AND JUST STAY IN FRONT OF PEPPERS

 

[drewbagel423]

He's probably thinking wtf did I get myself into?

We all as Rutgers fans have thought that.

 

[RUSK97]

You would cry about anything. Go change your diaper

No, Allen needs to change his diaper after that fumble.

 

[miketd1]

Are we that dumb that we think Peppers would actually throw the ball?

 

[LevaosLectures]

This is basically hell.

 

[theRU]

So should we have seriously let FLood win 0-2 games this years just so all you clowns would stop bashing anything different??? Are you all that blind?

 

[MYHATINTHERING]

yeah #4 michigan of this years is the same as the terrible team we beat that led to hoke's firing. Oh and our talent is exactly the same as that 2014 team. Go find another team clown.

stop with the talent nonsense, several games today should tell yuou that it's coaching and right now, it looks like we don't have any

 

[cRURah]

I'm sure all the recruits in attendance are going to be real impressed with this showing. What does he have to sell them other than playing time? Where is that atmosphere everyone was touting?

I thought it was a dumb move to make this game a huge recruiting event. What was Ash thinking?

 

[MYHATINTHERING]

lets see Oden... forget allen. i rather see the future.
Not like we're going to many games this year, we mind as well let young guys get some experience

agree

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

Not a fan of letting the opposing team have their flag bearers run onto our field after scores.

 

[NickKnight 1]

NO! Don't take out Laviano! He is tough!

He is tough as a girl scout falling down as soon as he can when in trouble.

 

[RUtrumpet92_rivals498139]

Friedgen > Mehringer. Don't underestimate that impact. Hopefully Drew evolves as the season progresses to get something going. There are winnable games on our schedule if we can move the ball and get 17 pts from the O.

 

[formerlyknownasrutgers100]

oh well. at least we got the first down. we weren't gonna win this game anyway. just would be happy to see us keep fighting.

doesn't count as a first down technically lol

 

[NickKnight 1]

agree

The qb that can't throw is our future?

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

Guarantee that Peppers has a better arm, and passing mechanics than any QB on our roster.

 

[brgRC90]

stop with the talent nonsense, several games today should tell yuou that it's coaching and right now, it looks like we don't have any

You show me a team that sucked last year that has all new coaches and a new offense that has played well against top 5 competition.

not that easy my friend...

 

[NickKnight 1]

We just lost half of our recruits.

 

[miketd1]

Run run run punt mode

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

He just fell forward...no one touched him and he just fell forward.

Play Oden please at least he'll be on the roster next year.

 

[KnightFan]

Friedgen > Mehringer. Don't underestimate that impact. Hopefully Drew evolves as the season progresses to get something going. There are winnable games on our schedule if we can move the ball and get 17 pts from the O.

I believe that the impact of the Fridge was much greater than anybody gave him credit for.. I still wish it would have been possible to swap him for Flood

 

[brgRC90]

So we've stopped trying to throw except on 3rd and long

 

[MYHATINTHERING]

can someone explain to me wha tthe OC is trying to accomplish with these plays? I mean holy crap, these plays do not fit the personal, they look made up in the sand

 

[Caliknight]

Any athlete can tell you it's talent. Switch 10 guys on these teams and it looks different.

 

[LC-88]

You show me a team that sucked last year that has all new coaches and a new offense that has played well against top 5 competition.

Va Tech did pretty well today at UNC, though not top 5.

 

[czxqa]

Kyle Flood beat Michigan at home only 2 years ago. Terry Ash can't even give us a half of competitive football.

With Gary Nova and Leonte Carroo. He didn't beat anyone with Lobiano

 

[miketd1]

Special team coach needs a pink slip.

 

[RUlighty]

No we're not losing recruits - if Ash has been honest that he's coming into fully rebuild this entire school, they'll get it.

best way to keep them is to show marked improvement in S&C and technique as the season goes on.

 

[Vince2310]

That was a much different team with a coach nearly as bad as Fudd.

Ash has no players - unfair comparison. Don't get me wrong, we are terrible, but having nova, caroo and grant on offense is a big difference. Floods lack of recruiting is why this is so painful.

After looking how Indiana hung in with Ohio state today, we may not win another game this year. Let's just hope ash can hold this recruiting class together.

 

[brgRC90]

The OC has zero confidence in his players

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

CAN'T YOU COUNT BEFORE THE SNAP AND SEE THERES TOO MANY GUYS IN THE BACKFIELD....

This is basic x and o's stuff that a good coach would prevent from happening.

 

[Rokodesh]

Just kill yourself and make the rest of us happy.

You are an anti-RU fan.

Suck my dick

 

[RU76COOK]

Peppers is an ahole.

 

[theRU]

stop with the talent nonsense, several games today should tell yuou that it's coaching and right now, it looks like we don't have any

stop with the coaching nonsense. Coaching doesnt lead to 1:1 disaster. You need to win the match up with the guy in front of you before you coach to strategize anything. Have you ever played? If my 5 online can't give 3 seconds against 4 dline, you are TOAST. What doesn't your feeble mind comprehend?

 

[theRU]

Suck my dick

doubt you actually have one

 

[Caliknight]

The OC has zero confidence in his players

For obvious reason. No playmakers, no line.

 

[RUSK97]

I thought the only clueless coach on our staff was Mehringer. Okruch has got to go too. You can almost convince me Mehringer's players are terrible. How is a punt team always out of formation?

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

That was a TD.

Fire this joke of a MAC Defensive Coaching squad.
