Nice to see the punt game still needs work.

That penalty hurt - got to keep it 3rd and short as don't want to have to rely on passing game.

 

[KKAT]

Strike that. Close to end zone.

 

[TejasCat]

I can't believe they punted

 

[Deeringfish]

I'd like to see them go back to the option a little more. It has worked pretty well

 

[EvanstonCat]

If Fitz had made the punt call, I'd be raging. Ridonkulous

 

[Deeringfish]

Got lucky on that penalty after the Long loss of yardage. Must be giving Jackson a blow

 

[Deeringfish]

Van Hoose

 

[Deeringfish]

Better than on the 1

 

[TejasCat]

pretty strong wind right to left? damn their punter is booming them and we aren't.

 

[FrankBear21]

Come on wildcats. Finish this thing

Need a nice long drive for a score. One more score and the D could give us this win

Gotta get something going on offense. Stanford's D is stout, but we need to find a hole somewhere.

 

[Deeringfish]

I wo=ish they would just pound it but they must not think they can do it with out North

 

[Windy City Cat Fan]

Need to expand this lead - start by ditching the razzed dazzle plays.

 

[TejasCat]

thats 3 punts they have messed up the spot!!!!!!!!

 

[EvanstonCat]

I wish we could tack on some insurance points.

A field goal on this drive could begin to ice it. Stanford could run out of gas in the heat and the body clock issues. They ate Bfast at 5 am their time. That messy you up.

10-3 at halftime. I'll take it. All in all a great start for the Cats.

Unless we are down by less than 10 or up by more than 20...it does not bode well for us. #statsarefornerds #untiltheyareaccurate

Maybe this is a new Era

Maybe this is a new Era

For the record...I would love...LOVE for you to be right. And either way...Thorson will lead us to a good next few years. #optimism

 

[DaCat]

Keep it going Cats. Protecting 10-3 lead. Need a TD on this drive.

 

[EvanstonCat]

Punch it in!!!!

 

[EvanstonCat]

Oh, well. I guess with the way the D is playing, I'll take the FG.

 

[Windy City Cat Fan]

Jeez almost pulled a Pete Carroll there - run the ball!

 

[TejasCat]

damn Thorson makes me nervous

 

[DaCat]

I thought they would go option. Thorson got lucky that wasn't picked off.

 

[EvanstonCat]

C'mon D - let's keep it up and put this away

 

[EvanstonCat]

Dammit. We need to score here. Please.

 

[SmellyCat]

What a throw!

 

[Deeringfish]

Field goal wins here

 

[Deeringfish]

Field goal wins here

We will win

 

[SmellyCat]

Good!!!

 

[EvanstonCat]

Nice FG!!!! Feeling it!!! CMON DEFENSE!!!!!

 

[Deeringfish]

Nice FG!!!! Feeling it!!! CMON DEFENSE!!!!!

Even if they score a T on a quick drive we can still drive some more

 

[DaCat]

D has to keep up its great play. We can do it!!!

 

[GopherMD]

Game. NU very impressive with triple-headed monster running attack and solid defense.

 

[SmellyCat]

[DaCat]
