Rutgers returns the favor with a stupid penalty.

We'll take it!

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

Can anyone break a tackle?

 

[Pukecat]

Without a doubt, this is the funniest thing I’ve ever read on this site. Chicago tough! Polish sausage! Deep dish pizza!

No the funniest thing is how horrible Rutgers is. They are really bad and we still aren’t beating them yet?

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

CT is just too friggen slow! You need Green rolling out! Nasty play by our QB!

 

[bjm989_rivals]

Cats are really struggling today.

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

Punt. Pin them back.

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

I can see this a mile away! Yank Thorson! He is too slow!

 

[chicagocatfan24]

Offensive line is a steaming pile of ****

 

[bjm989_rivals]

Need our defense to step up. We definitely got their fans into the game.

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

Wow the offense is like Illinois State game bad

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

Punt the damned ball, Fitz!

 

[AtlantaCat]

May not happen again soon but I am with Wrassler. This Thorson **** show is disgusting.

 

[Pukecat]

CT is just killing us!

Pretty bad Rutgers team. I’ve never seen such an awful team in the Big Ten and yet they’re winning?! Our OL in pass protection belongs on the RU sidelines.

Offensive line is getting MANHANDLED

 

[bjm989_rivals]

Could one actually support a family by simply taking the points every time NU is favored?

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

CT is a friggen statute!

 

[bjm989_rivals]

Bowser has had some nice runs today. Let’s see it if opens the pass up.

 

[AtlantaCat]

Nice 2d down call!!!

 

[Smokejumper]

don't like calling out players, but looks like #52 is having a really bad day out there

 

[Hungry Jack]

Replace Cushing and Spanos

 

[Fanaticat98]

Yeah, call me a pessimist but I don't see any way we beat them being down more than a FG into the 4th quarter. The only chance I see is either a penalty aided TD drive, or a defensive score (or turnover deep in RU territory). This offense is NOT going to come back on its own today. Will not happen.

Yep. One has to assume that Urban is hurt, as Butler got pulled in favor of Gerak due to some equally craptastic play.

 

[HappyNUyear_rivals517720]

In other news an undefeated Cincy Team just pulled ahead of an Inferior Temple

 

[DaCat]

It's a team effort. Nagel dropped an easy one.

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

Hanaoka player of game so far. Actually trying

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

CT threw it better there! Angle dropped the ball. Rutgers is playing tight coverage. We need to get some pass interference calls.

All we need is one good drive or a defensive turnover setting up a short field.

 

[corbi2961]

Whenever our young back up OL have to come into the game they look completely unprepared to play. Have no idea how to pick up stunts. Wide eyes, as Fitz likes to say, is an indication of not being prepared. More of the same today on the OL.

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

May need a pick 6 to win.

 

[TheC]

This is what happens when you don't recruit any real athletes for your offensive skill positions. No big plays unless its a busted coverage like at MSU. Have to be perfect down the field instead of quick strikes that demoralize a weaker opponent.

 

[LansingCat_rivals315357]

What we need is a defensive touchdown!

 

[bjm989_rivals]

Our offensive needs to remember how to score here. Touch down play.

Thanks. Just what we needed. Tipping point.

 

[zeek55]

These 2nd down plays that lose yardage have been killing us.

 

[bjm989_rivals]

Nice qb sneak.

 

[bjm989_rivals]

Cajones.

 

[zeek55]

Need a TD here.

 

[bjm989_rivals]

Can’t believe we run on 3rd and five there.

 

[AtlantaCat]

Eff you, McCall.
