Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Rutgers Football vs. Michigan State

[fluoxetine]

Schiano thinks we can win games 10-7

Well, we can’t. But that doesn’t make the defense bad.

 

[tico brown]

He’s not worse so they are trying to get him back into game flow. No issue with that. Gavin should not play again today.

Fair enough. But if he can’t kick slide vs a speed rusher, then someone else has to be out there.

 

[tico brown]

Basically, what we have learned is Rutgers can only win games where their OL is significantly better than the opponent's DL.
This allows for a vanilla run game to be effective and that is the only thing they can do.

Any other scenario and there is zero offense.

Maybe the wrong OLinemen are out there

 

[Rufaninga]

That helps !

 

[tm_nj]

Has Matt Millen ever seen Rutgers win as an announcer?

 

[rutgersguy1_rivals]

Sudden change and there’s a little life

 

[fluoxetine]

We should just give them the ball back and try to score on defense again.

 

[RUfromNJ]

We’ll take it

 

[tico brown]

Let’s hope this changes things around.

 

[MADHAT1]

Well, we can’t. But that doesn’t make the defense bad.

without an O the D won't save the game and can't keep RU in the game .
THE d loses it's edge when it loses hope the O will do something.

 

[miketd1]

So now I have to sit through more of this.

I’m not sure how I feel.

 

[yessir321]

Here come's the comeback! All points from Defense and Special teams!

 

[Extra Point_rivals157299]

This game is about over. I am not a good chopper :-/

And that is why you have to keep chopping!!

 

[tico brown]

We should just give them the ball back and try to score on defense again.

No lies.

 

[greenknight]

Well I guess if you need pts really fast that's about the fastest way it can happen

 

[tico brown]

Has Matt Millen ever seen Rutgers win as an announcer?

Probably not but he sounds like he’s rooting for this in a quiet way

 

[Visengoth]

Rutgers defense scoring more than Rutgers offense

 

[Zimm80]

That’s why we need to extend Schiano now. He clearly needs more time.

His time is well done , he should concentrate on fund raising only.

 

[miketd1]

We should just give them the ball back and try to score on defense again.

I just give it 3 nice sideline heaves

Get a long completion, pass interference, or arm punt.

All are OK by me.

 

[rutgersguy1_rivals]

Let’s hope this changes things around.

Sudden change is why I keep hope in two score games. In a 3 score game we need a little more. Hard to expect multiple sudden change or big plays but never know, especially with the rain.

 

[greenknight]

The problem is this offense CANNOT score.

 

[rutgersguy1_rivals]

We should just give them the ball back and try to score on defense again.

The Iowa strategy lol

 

[greenknight]

Why do they blow the whistle dead when ball is in the end zone??? Why not live ball

 

[tico brown]

who would you want??
Sanders or Schiano??

At the very least, Sanders would get the funding a hell of a lot faster for the needed facilities.

Of course that would never happen here so there’s that.

 

[yessir321]

I'd normally be irked by not going for the onside there but tbh the defense probably has a better chance of putting up points at this point

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

Bad call in our favor there

That’s a catch and a fumble

 

[RUfromNJ]

Lol enough with the horn

 

[bac2therac]

Sparty being aggressive on first down..why not just try to run it out

 

[rutgersguy1_rivals]

3 and out here and there’s more life

 

[RUfromNJ]

Igbinosun’s best game at RU

 

[greenknight]

Come on Flipppp

 

[rutgersguy1_rivals]

Oh man we almost had another TO, dang it

 

[bac2therac]

Holy **** how do you not intercept that

 

[jkernpop]

We simply cannot catch the football. I am dead inside.

 

[greenknight]

Shocking Rochelle not put there

 

[kupuna133]

Wow no Rochelle. There is someone competent in that sideline.

 

[yessir321]

that's gonna be a meme

 

[miketd1]

They found a guy in the stands to call a fair catch.

That #47 jersey doesn’t even have a name panel LOL

 

[Extra Point_rivals157299]

Wow a missed pic 6

 

[kupuna133]

Let’s get some points on the board here!
