Football Rutgers Football defeats Temple, 36-7

[jrm75]

If it wasn't for the 2 fumbles (our lost, their recovery), we could have put this game away in the first half.

At some point you have to speed up the game and make him make plays. They've had the ball 3x against garbage teams before 1/2 and did not do it. You want to be big time program you have to start making plays...

If Wim is improving at the rate he looks to be I'll bet we get there sooner rather than later. He looks like a real QB now. Last year he looked like a kid trying to play QB.

Gavin has a cannon. He also got blasted on that play. Kid has moxy.

Washington State making Wisconsin very beatable. If we were in the Western Division, we would

Oh Temple is lucky to only be down by 13. How about the hail Mary, Wimsatt has a gun. Over all it was a good half.

Very lucky. I mean Washington’s fumble was on us, but still.

No punts. Anyone know the last time we went a whole half against a real team (not Wagner) without punting?

Be competing for division title.

This. I disagree that we should've been running a hurry offense there. An unlucky tipped pass could result in a 13-7 halftime score. It’s not worth it. What we did had the highest risk / return odds even though we didn’t put points on the board. The only other option would’ve been a quick pass to get in FG range but there was no guarantee we could get off a snap in time to kick with 7 seconds remaining and no time outs left.

I’d like to see a running game in the second half that leaves no doubt about this one.

Yep. Greg's not risking a turnover inside the 20 or even the 30 with a lead.

 

[Rufaninga]

Hopefully we start to wear them down this quarter cand get a big lead & don't look back.

How's breakfast over there in the Eastern Hemisphere?

Some chicken and rice

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Meh, boring series. Exactly the type of thing that let Temple think they have a shot.

 

[rob kight]

Time for an INT

 

[RUScrew85]

Some chicken and rice

Sounds like lunch. No waffles over there?

 

[njxchange]

This RPO is not confusing the defense at all.
Just running shotgun offense at this point.

 

[drewbagel423]

OL didn't show up much that series

C'mon up to the upper deck and you can complain with the rest of us. I swear W could have 2 TDs a game if they actually let him read the play.

Looked better last week

 

[RUScrew85]

That's a terrible D PI call.

 

[RUSK97]

WTF HOW WAS THAT NOT A FUMBLE?!!?

 

[drewbagel423]

HOW TF are you going to blow the whistle AFTER the ball comes ouT????

 

[RUfromNJ]

Are they gonna say forward progress?

 

[RUScrew85]

WTF HOW WAS THAT NOT A FUMBLE?!!?

Maybe Forward Motion stopped?

 

[greenknight]

We are keeping a garbage team in the game with our horrific play calling

 

[rutgersguy1_rivals]

Are they gonna say forward progress?

Looks like it but it looked borderline to me

 

[RUfromNJ]

Are they gonna say forward progress?

They are.

 

[RUSK97]

Big steaming pile of bull dung

 

[drewbagel423]

The receiver was still fighting for yardage, WTF?

 

[scarletrat]

Agree temple is beyond fortunate to be down only 13.

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

That’s so ridiculous.

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

I’m telling ya, I have 2022 Nebraska vibes right now.

 

[BeantownKnight]

When you don't play-call aggressively but the other team does, they will eventually catch up.

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

I just don’t like the way things are going.

 

[Colbert17!]

Sounds like lunch. No waffles over there?

Not in my neighborhood

 

[RUfromNJ]

We’re due a break here.

He looked like a kid trying to play QB with 2 OCs that were trying to be coaches.

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

This isn’t good at all. Our D getting torched.

I guess Vegas knows what they are doing

 

[bac2therac]

Schiano will never change. Thats why this game is now a dogfight

 

[drewbagel423]

This drive has 7 written all over it

 

[bac2therac]

Ive never seen a football team actively try to not exploit a ****** team at home
