Sparse so far

 

[Panthergrowl13]

Good luck to you guys.

HAIL TO PITT!!!!

 

[Tango Two]

Pacheco hurt on opening kickoff

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Pacheco injured already

RU is going to get blown out

Empty stadium

Barchi and Hobbs should be embarrassed

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Well looks like Pacheco is done for the year.

 

[ScarletDave]

Thank goodness we picked the white helmets today. That should help Art's INT problems. I guess Ash forgot had to guess what uniforms penn state was gonna wear today.

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Well looks like Pacheco is done for the year.

Or maybe not.

Annoucners:

"Rutgers brings in 3 TEs. Rutgers wants to make everything muddled. Bring in heavy personnel."

Makes perfect sense for a team with less talent than most of their division every season.

#FireEveryone

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

Cole got abused

He was trying to chip one guy while preventing the LB/DB from filling the hole.. no matter what he did that play was blown up. But he should have actually blocked the DE and let the RB worry about the man filling the hole.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

‘Rutgers does that exceptionally well’ (block kicks) - yeah, when we had Schiano.

 

[brgRC90]

Putrid offense

 

[scarlet_ty_rivals]

My god Art. Wtf

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

"I don't know what he was looking at.. what he was waiting for. Pull the cord."

 

[ScarletDave]

Worst we've looked on offense all season.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

field position battle this half.. already lost.

Wasn't a fan of that comment either.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

Worst we've looked on offense all season.

And its not like the D is forcing that.. we ain't executing.

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

"That's bad football."

Yes, yes it is.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Seem to be regressing on offense - how is that even possible? Is there no nadir?

 

[brgRC90]

We're helped by the fact that so far Penn state looks flat and unmotivated and cold.

 

[ScarletDave]

PSU offense couldn't care less !! IF WE HAD GIO IN WE WOULD HAVE A CHANCE TODAY

 

[RU4Real]

Is there no nadir?

Isn't he the guy who owns the Hillsborough Deli?

 

[koleszar]

We'd have a better chance on offense if we just threw Hail Mary's all game. Don't look, throw it as hard as you can and Pray.

 

[RU848789]

For the love of all things holy, can we end this friggin' experiment with Sitkowski? He just sucks. There's no sugar coating it. Can't hit easy screen passes, takes an unnecessary sack when he has an easy outlet (even if just to toss it at his feet) and, obviously, throws way too often to the other team, even when not under pressure. Yes, he has an arm, yes he's a tough kid, yes, his WRs aren't so hot, but he's just not a 1A QB.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Something tells me we won’t let them win the 3 and out game

 

[ScarletDave]

We'd have a better chance on offense if we just threw Hail Mary's all game. Don't look, throw it as hard as you can and Pray.

That's what he's been doing on screens behind the line of scrimmage so might as well launch it up and hope for pass interference or Roughing

 

[RU848789]

First home game I've watched on TV in a long time (heading down to PARX for a family thing around 2 or so - uncle's 90th birthday) - it's kind of weird.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

We have the -10 play down!

 

[RU848789]

Nice D so far

 

[RU4Real]

It seems like the line just steps aside and lets Sitkowski get hit.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

That push-pull by the DL is holding.. if the OL did it it would be called

 

[kcg88]

Sitkowski is terrified to throw the ball.

 

[ScarletDave]

Sit has been left in so he can "learn" huh? That;s the second sack that he could have thrown it away. And had time on the sideline for McNulty to tell him about it too.

 

[brgRC90]

Putrid offense
