First half thread

How do we feel about playing Marty some if he’s healthy? Would love a running element.

 

[IAWildcat79]

I think Hutchinson is lining up on the other side.

On the 3rd down he did come from the offense's left...Washington chipped him before going out and catching that short check down ball.

 

[TerraCat]

Is McNamara limping?

 

[Figrating]

Hope Coach Jake starts to roll out more.

 

[TerraCat]

very good coverage there by Coco!

 

[IAWildcat79]

Great coverage on the last 2 deep balls from the secondary

**Edit - And great SURE tackle on 3rd and 10 short of the sticks by Heard.

 

[TheC]

Much better D so far. Almost miraculous when you consider that Nebraska game.

 

[NUCat320]

Interesting to see if we try to establish the run here. Maybe a Clair drive.

 

[Jonny2TheP]

Man, night and day defense since the bye week. This is much more of what we’re accustomed to. Love to see it.

I'd feel great about playing Marty for both running and passing.

Reminiscent of Slater against Young. Skoronski stonewalling Hutchinson so far, so they'll probably move him against Wiederkehr more.

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

Well, there was our run up the middle, for those who were asking for it!

 

[IAWildcat79]

Better numbers on that smoke/now screen to Washington...still would rather the receiver be on the move, but when you are 2 on 1 or throwing uncovered, it works

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

For those of you calling for Marty, now is the time. Need the 1st

 

[IAWildcat79]

Wow Michigan blew that coverage

**Edit - Joel saw it too!

 

[TerraCat]

The tight end was wide open! Even I saw that! Man Ryan look for that!

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

3rd batted ball.

 

[1060Ivy]

But Michigan continues to put pressure on

 

[TerraCat]

Again, missed opportunity there, he had guys in his face, but no one was in coverage. I think Ryan is going to get there where he takes advantage of these kind of formations...

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

I'm glad that we converted a 3rd down on that drive. This game is going to be a battle.

 

[NREPP Fraud]

Got to blitz em

 

[IAWildcat79]

3rd and long Mich is clearly not going to play passively and let Hilinski feel comfortable. Brought 7 there and went basically C0 behind it...there was an open receiver but Hilinski couldn't step into the throw

 

[IAWildcat79]

Jesus...blow the whistle.

If we know a blitz is coming, we should try a screen.

 

[IAWildcat79]

You ain't wrong.

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

That is effing BS. Guy was stopped. Any more D and we get a penalty. Ref had his whistle up his ***

 

[NREPP Fraud]

We need to get pressure on qb! Linebacker blitz may work

 

[IAWildcat79]

That's a tackle Bergin has to make on that jet screen. The guy all but ran into him...

 

[TejasCat]

Horrible non-whistle when momentum stopped then we blow a few tackles. Can't afford stupid crap like this to win this game.

 

[Figrating]

These announcers just love UM.

 

[TejasCat]

exactly, and if we strip the ball carrier there, they call momentum stopped for sure.

Poor reffing

 

[SLUCATS210]

AJ henning, last I saw him, fitz’s boys from Loyola academy upset him and Lincoln way East to end his illinois high school career lol

 

[IAWildcat79]

Probably a good thing they weren't reading the bunch formation to the top of the screen there...

 

[EvanstonCat]

How about a turnover!?!

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

Big 3rd down here...

 

[SLUCATS210]

These announcers suck

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

Faked out of his shoes...

 

[TejasCat]

We got to get some offense going or our D is gonna wear out and this gets ugly.

 

[SLUCATS210]

I mean I’ll be honest. Cade isn’t good and I actually trust our secondary, stop the damn run.
