Injury report??

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Mish St QB Houser looks confident. Has moxy

RU better not give him time

 

[mdk02]

Rain is light in North Jersey. What's it like at SHI?

In my seat now, it's not great. Tailgate was fine just some light stuff and no problem at all. Now it's becoming noticeably annoying especially with the temps.

Other issue is that once inside you are just sitting and not moving.

Pro tip
If you’re there keep drinking and you won’t feel cold

 

[jkernpop]

What luck.

 

[bac2therac]

Carved up by first time qb

Very disappointing

This thread is dead today

 

[Rokodesh]

Dave Cohen school of defense

 

[Rokodesh]

Max getting cooked again

 

[bac2therac]

Did anyone prepare

Totally lost

Took 1/2 quarter

 

[kupuna133]

Melton is getting abused this year. Can’t give up leverage so easily.

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Very disappointing start from the defense.

12.5% of the game is over, and we haven’t touched the ball.

 

[Ridge 22]

good start. not

I'm about to leave for a scouts event. Will have tonwatch later.

Going dark - no checking score, told my friends no text messages, staying off here.

 

[rucoe89]

So much for a backup QB on an unorganized team advantage theory.

 

[RU-Hunter]

Too easy for MSU. Let’s see if we can respond

 

[RUfromNJ]

Swiss cheese on D that entire drive

 

[BeantownKnight]

That's what I want our 4 star QB to look like.

 

[NickRU714]

So much for the weather stopping the pass.

Hopefully we don't pack it in and go ultra conservative.

 

[tm_nj]

that was not a promising drive

 

[pmvon]

Back up QB?

 

[RUeric]

Every time we are burned by a backup QB. If the offense goes 3 and out, look out. Melton has been the biggest disappointment of the season for me.

 

[rucoe89]

We make backup QBs look like Heisman candidates

 

[njknightsfan]

Their offensive line just dominated us. Hopefully we can counter with a TD of our own.

 

[NickRU714]

This is why we need a slow offense. Quick offense tires out our defense and puts them in a bad spot.

Oh wait, that was the 1st drive of the game.

 

[Rufaninga]

Let's hope after that hit, the receiver hears footsteps for the rest of the game

 

[Knight Owl]

Michigan State’s O is no joke (hilarious that they already fumbled once though). Pressure is on the OC and GW to make throws.

 

[HeywoodGiant]

I'm about to leave for a scouts event. Will have tonwatch later.

Going dark - no checking score, told my friends no text messages, staying off here.

I hope you have a kid in the scouts

 

[SBP]

Hot knife thru butter. ********

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

We make backup QBs look like Heisman candidates

BS. The DL failed us that drive. When you run for 7+ any QB will look good.

 

[ScarletKid2008]

First start QB. 14 plays. 75 yards. Looked methodical.

Not great.
And fan attendance is awful (myself included as i sit home stuck with the kids today)

 

[RUfromNJ]

One thing we didn’t want to do was give that QB confidence on the first drive. What do we do?

 

[miketd1]

What the heck has happened to Max?

He has consistently been picked on and it’s working.

 

[tm_nj]

we seem to be the only team that is always one deep at QB
