Rutgers vs Army - Game Thread

[SouthJerseyRU]

Time out for Rutgers.

Another in the long line of 1st Q time outs by RU. Probably needed it to discuss what to do on 4th down with 7 min left in the 1st Q and Army at their own 20.

 

[Abro1975]

Bad pass.

 

[Rutgers Man 22]

Oh. My. God.

I feel like I post the same thing every single week

GET THIS GUY OUT OF HERE HE CANT EVEN MAKE A SIMPLE THROW TO AN OPEN RECEIVER!!

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

3 and out....

Roth to punt..

 

[ScarletNYC]

Unreal.

 

[Block R]

Poor execution on 3rd down but at least we've been winning the field position battle thus far.

 

[Caliknight]

Laviano. Ugggh. How low is the bar when the coach has a goal of completing the easy pass? Yet he still doesn't.

 

[SouthJerseyRU]

Goodwin was open for the 1st.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Flood tricked us unto thinking we might have an easy win today... But naybe not.

 

[Veiox]

Laviano reacted to pressure that was not even there and rushed the throw. Stand in there and make your throw.

 

[Pritz99]

Hasn't Army heard about our pass defense?

 

[Block R]

Hasn't Army heard about our pass defense?

Did you see their QB's first pass?

 

[RUSK97]

Offense has to sustain drives. Army plays 4 quarters and that run-run will wear this thin D.

 

[Block R]

Hicks making plays on defense too. Love this guy

 

[NickyNewark51]

Offense has to sustain drives. Army plays 4 quarters and that run-run will wear this thin D.

Sooner or later they'll burn us on an unexpected pass.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Hicks recovers the fumble.

 

[kennyschiano]

Wilkins will be our next big defensive star...

Id like to think so. But that's based on big plays against army. That's like when people on this board anoint players based on things against our own team in practice.

 

[sagar1127]

This season's lack of player development is really scary...

 

[LadyRU09]

Doing decently. I like it!

 

[Wutevah]

Laviano reacted to pressure that was not even there and rushed the throw. Stand in there and make your throw.

Laviano is being mismanaged by Flood right now, it's really troublesome.

 

[LevaosLectures]

Easy win in the works.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Paul James with his 2nd TOUCHDOWN!

14-0 Rutgers

 

[RUSK97]

Hicks recovers the fumble.

Unfortunately Hicks has too much experience trying to recover fumbles.

 

[Block R]

Id like to think so. But that's based on big plays against army. That's like when people on this board anoint players based on things against our own team in practice.

He's played well in other games too and has gotten better with more playing time as the season has unfolded.

 

[redking]

Schiano style RU football for this game. A score off a blocked kick, then a score off a fumble.

But, you have to take into account the opponent. The Army cadets are the future leaders of the country, not future professional athletes.

 

[Pritz99]

Does Rettig see any meaningful action in an RU blowout?

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Id like to think so. But that's based on big plays against army. That's like when people on this board anoint players based on things against our own team in practice.

He had some big plays against the top Big Ten as well and an interception last week.

He will be a good one.

 

[Block R]

Does Rettig see any meaningful action in an RU blowout?

Nope. Flood will be Flood and won't put him in until early to mid 4th (best case scenario). The excuse will be Laviano needs all the playing time he can get to develop.

 

[Caliknight]

Nope. Flood will be Flood and won't put him in until early to mid 4th (best case scenario).

And make him a hand off machine when he is.

 

[RUforJERSEY]

Think this is going to be a blowout.

 

[SouthJerseyRU]

Only WR that can do anything for them and is open by 15 yards.

 

[mikershoein]

Edgar Allen Poe with army first down

 

[Abro1975]

Interesting the good Army WR is Edgar Poe. Writer Edgar Alan Poe was at West Point for a while

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Pass play works ... Army WR was wide open for days.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Run play worked even better...

Touchdown Army.

 

[SouthJerseyRU]

RB playing safety did not play that well.

 

[LevaosLectures]

So much for the easy win.

 

[Spare130_rivals]

Is it me or did we get jobbed on the spot for the army first down

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Army's OC should really think about throwing the ball more...and more...and more....today. Just sayin'!

 

[RUSK97]

Anyone who thinks this'll be a blowout hasn't been watching Rutgers football this season.
