Rutgers vs Maryland: Game Thread

[Blitz8RU]

Flood is just a ballless wonder... with good field postion and 30sec to go with one timeout... seriously...

 

[mildone_rivals]

Wow. Not understanding why we take a knee there. Run a few plays. Tell Laviano if it's not totally open to throw it out of bounds. Why pass up the chance to twist the knife before MD goes in the locker room.

 

[rume]

Take a knee? Why?

Coach Flood saved a time out for the second half!

 

[brodo_rivals]

I like how Maryland went to their back-up when it was clear their starter couldn't move the ball.

Perhaps Flood sees that you are allowed to change QB's in this game.

LET LAVIANO LEARN!!!

 

[MikeR0102]

Who are we going to maul in our bowl game?

 

[czxqa]

No arrests, no acedemic issues and no suspensions and this team goes 8-4.

Really? Which two of the five blowout losses would they have won? And how?

 

[BillyC80]

If I'm the opposing coach, I use that knee as motivation. "Those SOBs think they've already won, and they're taking a knee on us!" Something like that.

 

[RUJeffro]

Great game so far for Laviano. Could be 10th bowl in 11 years. Proud of the heart in this team.

 

[Caliknight]

Not really sure that would motivate me as a player.

 

[RUChoppin]

So, there were 20 announced seniors in the band, and 6 in the guard.

That's some pretty high attrition.

 

[RU31trap]

They would have beaten WSU, MSU and Nebraska. All those things I mentioned was too much to overcome, unless you SEC talent and depth.

Wow... Doubt it

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

9 seconds into the 3rd abd CL throws an interception... Sigh...

 

[rufeelinit]

These Maryland QBS must have been a rough watch all year as well

 

[MADHAT1]

Fire Flood

 

[RUSK97]

Don't worry Flood will find a way to lose

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Did Flood tell the team a bedtime story at halftime?

Touchdown Maryland...

Oh oh...

31-20 Rutgers

 

[MikeR0102]

90 seconds into the 2nd half and it's a ball game again.

Expecting the onside kick here, especially after the penalty.

 

[Caliknight]

Bles Austin is afraid to tackle. Dude just watched the guy break tackles right in front of his face.

Are you a football player or a fan?

 

[scarlet_ty_rivals]

Pathetic

 

[BillyC80]

That MD touchdown is on CL. He locked in on a receiver, waited too long to make the throw, and then threw to the wrong spot, leading to an interception.

 

[MADHAT1]

damm, just when I was feeling good a flood of nastiness hits me to start off the third.

 

[czxqa]

They would have beaten WSU, MSU and Nebraska. All those things I mentioned was too much to overcome, unless you SEC talent and depth.

Wazzou I'll agree. Caroo played against the Spartans and was healthy. It's not like the guys we lost in the secondary were NFL ready players. The only change that would have made this an 8-4 team is at head coach.

 

[scarlet_ty_rivals]

Next up: fumbled snap

RU should start charging him admission for as often as he stands around just watching the other team

Defense was terrible- that Mary TD on them too.

 

[scarletrider]

looks like the terps have made some adjustments

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

3 and out.... Punt

 

[Caliknight]

Gonna be a game folks. Unlikely it wouldn't turn into one.

 

[TheKidFromRahway]

Feels like this one is turning.

 

[RUSK97]

Feels like this one is turning.

Nope already turned

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

looks like the terps have made some adjustments

doubling Carroo

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Flood is playing not to lose so Maryland will comeback. It is a shame. I feel bad for the seniors. They don't deserved to have a HC this brutally awful.

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

My gut tells me this game may have turned when Flood took a knee going into halftime.

 

[redking]

Wow Grant playing with fire taking that punt. I'd rather him just fair catch it with a slick ball.

 

[rufeelinit]

I think we are still in control here. Just don't help them. We should be establish the run after the Laviano pick.

 

[kennyschiano]

Wide open Bergen - hit him in the numbers!!

 

[ginghy]

That MD touchdown is on CL. He locked in on a receiver, waited too long to make the throw, and then threw to the wrong spot, leading to an interception.

"Hi. My name is Chris Laviano. I always lock on to my intended receiver and always throw short. But coach tells me I give the team the best chance to win! I'm special!"

 

[Caliknight]

Another 3 yard laviano miss.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

3 and out ... Punt
