Game thread for Duke vs. Northwestern

[Cheech210]

Let’s not kick field goals anymore till Olsen is back please and thank you Fitz!

 

[TerraCat]

Why can't we kick field goals? Lot's of game left...let's go Cats!! A stop here is essential!

Moved the ball a bit. Duke playing better defense than us

 

[jensberg]

Moved the ball a bit. Duke playing better defense than us

And they're playing better offense and better special teams

Right. We need to see something from our D here. Can’t do what we saw the last series.

 

[timbfischer]

This game has been nothing but NU mistakes so far...

 

[TerraCat]

Could we possibly look any worse

It is a strong showing for looking bad!

Seems like our kicker is always hurt too, not sure how that's possible.

 

[TerraCat]

The D looks so bad!!

2021 defense

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Uh ohhhhh

 

[TerraCat]

i honestly cannot watch this again...this is last year all over...

 

[bjm989_rivals]

2021 defense

So bad.

 

[Figrating]

Oh Jon...................

 

[BFDCat]

This is unwatchable.

 

[chicagocatfan24]

God awful

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Another ply with bad LB fits and bad tackling behind combined

 

[NUCat320]

Yuck

 

[LACatFan]

Sh**ing the bed again against the Dookies.

 

[Titanium999]

Could we possibly look any worse

Ain’t rocket science ! We miss an easy field goal! Fix the kick ing game

 

[timbfischer]

Our LBs are always in the wrong place!

 

[HawkCat]

Well, we have learned that Nebraska is very, very bad, and that we are just bad.

 

[GeauxCatsGeaux]

I am so sick of playing Duke. It's the same formula every year. Who do we talk to make this the last year?

 

[Koldfire]

Two TDs, never held them to third down.

 

[DaCat]

Okay this is looking very familiar with the JON defense

 

[Titanium999]

Sh**ing the bed against the Dookies.

We need more pressure up front! Just nasty execution currently!

 

[stpaulcat]

The JON defense is ALIVE and WELL.

 

[Rodenthater]

Why???

 

[TerraCat]

This is embarrassing...it looks like we are playing Georgia or OSU. We are playing DUKE!

 

[jensberg]

Maybe Temple wasn't as bad as everyone intimated

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

Nothing like sweating in a solar field watching your team get blasted by the 100th best team in the country.

 

[Cheech210]

One would think that Fitz and his staff would put more work into prepare for Duke has owned us the past 3 years. One would think!

 

[TerraCat]

Maybe Temple wasn't as bad as everyone intimated

I highly doubt that...

 

[MCC_Cat]

Okay this is looking very familiar with the JON defense

It's a react and read defense as in read the players' names on the backs of their jerseys as they run away from us.

 

[kaTNap]

The JON defense is ALIVE and WELL.

They look like they're wearing concrete snowshoes, they're so slow.

 

[JT2311]

I thought our tackling issue on defense transferred to ND

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

One would think that Fitz and his staff would put more work into prepare for Duke has owned us the past 3 years. One would think!

Bad preparation doesn't help

 

[Figrating]

THROW THE F'G BALL, JAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[WestCoastWildcat]

Brutal start. Failure in all aspects. Duke looks pretty dominant so far. Very impressed by their offense- Kevin Johns looks like a solid OC for them.

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

Run wide on 3 and 1. Sigh
