FOOTBALL Game thread for NU vs. Oregon

[AdamOnFirst]

You thought that was a smart play???

It was definitely very dumb for Komo to catch the throwaway. Whatever was attempted downfield clearly didn't work.

 

[NU Houston]

These media timeouts on Fox games are interminable.

 

[GECat2]

Stone is killing us. He looks panicked every time he throws.

 

[CatManTrue]

Najee Story just knocked the crap out of Moore on that incomplete pass. Our defense is bringing it

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Josh Fussell and TObert Fitzgerald are showing off their budding stardom

 

[TheC]

Proud of our D. They're playing great. Offense may really struggle leading to our D getting worn down.

 

[Cool Cat]

Fussell is a shutdown corner.

Do we try Boe so we can use the Captain Stiff Arm play?

 

[NU Houston]

Great job by Fussell to break up that pass.

 

[Cool Cat]

Nooooo! We paid big bucks for Stone.

 

[Cool Cat]

RTDB!!!!

 

[AdamOnFirst]

It’s impossible to be anything but surprised and impressed by the performance of our offensive line today so far.

 

[julescat]

Jesus Christ, Stone.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Ok, what the actual **** was that

 

[TheC]

This guy is killing us!!

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

This guy is an absolute clown

 

[HawkCat]

We are beating ourselves.

 

[CatManTrue]

Wow. Stone just keeps finding new ways to turn it over. He just dropped that ball.

 

[HawkCat]

Looked to me like he had guys open on that third down when he ate the ball.

 

[Cool Cat]

I think Stone is just trying too hard.

 

[GECat2]

Stone did the same thing against Tulane.

 

[NU Houston]

Again, it would be nice if Stone had the ability to tuck and run.

 

[prez77]

Defense is playing well enough to actually win. The passing game OMG

 

[TheC]

I think Stone is just trying too hard.

Or he's just shell shocked

 

[CatManTrue]

Our right tackle remains a problem. That spin move sack just embarrassed him.

 

[CatManTrue]

Or he's just shell shocked

Or he’s just not very good.

 

[Cool Cat]

Defense hold here, we are in a good position.

 

[jensberg]

Wonder if Stone has small hands for a quarterback or something that's several times he's dropped the ball for no reason. Yet again not having a good game. Hard to believe that there isn't anybody else on our team that they could give a shot to give him a break

 

[IMC Cat]

If Walters and Wallace are both out, who is playing Safety alongside Fitzgerald?

 

[TheC]

This #1 is killing us

 

[julescat]

Small hands? Move this to the rant board.

 

[HawkCat]

Fussell being out is a problem.

 

[WestCoastWildcat]

Defense has been decent but our qb fumble killed the drive. Our poor offense undermining our defense, again.

20 years and counting

it looks like Theran Johnson got beat by freshmen for the starting corner jobd, BTW.

He went from All Big Ten to the bench. Sad!

I think he's banged up.

Commercial, 1 play, commercial, 1 play, commercial,…

 

[TheC]

Just one play away, now twice on this drive

Fox sports

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Oof, Fitzgerald not quite the star in coverage that is he in the box yet
