Houston-Cincinnati tonight 7:30 ESPN

[J187Money]

That escalated quickly.

Pretty epic melt.

Makes the Yankees 8th/9th inning meltdown last night seem pedestrian in comparison.

Tom Herman says he's been assured Greg Ward's shoulder injury won't get worse by playing with it. And that it will heal "eventually."

Herman said Ward's shoulder is something they'll manage this season.

Tom Herman said Greg Ward's arm "would have to have been hanging off" for him to come out of the game.

Tom Herman on status of Greg Ward: Going to manage reps in practice moving forward while recovering from shoulder injury

I know this sounds extremely dickheadish considering these are college kids, but if I'm Diaco and Poindexter, I'm hitting Ward every play. Nothing cheap, but contact, contact, contact.

If it's not something we're doing every week in practices and games you'd have to focus on a few tendencies to turn guys loose. You'd like to think just containing Ward is enough but giving him time is suicide with his vision and arm strength - even injured. Some of our guys (Walsh in particular) looked a little tired of sitting back and decided to go for it last week. Hopefully the trend continues.

WTF I went to bed at 16-12 with like 13 minutes left?!

Cincy got a helmet on his throwing arm/shoulder first two series. They dinged him...

I'm sure he'll get his rest if possible against Texas State next week.

Attendance 40,015...third largest in Nippert history. Student attendance 7813, a Nippert record

Beating a dead horse: I wish UConn could boast attendance stats like this. The rating for the game was also excellent. Compare all that to what will surely be less than 30K at our game and we have our reason why UConn is not a top 2 B12 candidate, despite boasting top 2 P5 data.

Houston qb was the difference in that game. Cincy qb was young and inexperienced. Herman basically played 7 in the box all game and rattled the qb. In fball the qb is the main man and a 4 or 5 year guy is a big asset. Houston's very good.
