Skin The Bearcats! UConn vs Cincinnati Game Thread

[Drew]

wait you can go for it on fourth and short in opponent territory?? why didn't they punt a touchback for a 15 yard net gain?

 

[NC_Uconn_Fan]

We'll take it

 

[TRest]

Yes bob we had that defended

 

[WestCoastHusky]

Did I just witness a blitz? And our D held on 4th and short?

Diaco would have punt for sure. Tommy went for it like any coach would. We got lucky the cincy wr dropped a wide open pass.

 

[uconnbaseball]

Right now Cinco is just more athletic than Uconn

Maybe, but Cincy's defense has MAC talent. We would look more athletic if we ran an actual 21st century offense.

#UConn's Arkeel Newsome has apparently been suspended for the first quarter. No word from school.

#UConn SID won't confirm suspension. "You can talk to Bob about it after the game."

The announcers talked to him before the game....Diaco called it a " teachable moment."

Multiple times blitzing today, including last play. Like it.

Diaco smugly is laughing at Tuberville for not punting there.

Shirreffs has had a bad game every game since Navy. It might be Anderson time.

 

[TRest]

God shireffs is awful

Gotta catch that one.

 

[JMick]

God shireffs is awful

He went off against Navy and has been terrible since. I don't get it

Shirreffs can't throw on the run.

New twist for the Huskies- PPPPP.

God shireffs is awful

Most frustrating thing is how he pulls ball down and starts looking to scramble in a calm pocket.

 

[RedStickHusky]

not good when your punter gets more touches than your featured back

 

[Uconnalliance]

Not a secret why Justin Wain is one of the best punters in the nation.. Spends the whole game practicing

 

[Jimdish255]

I just don't understand I was putting in a good Blitz and then playing 10 yards of the ball that almost cost us

 

[TRest]

It's nice to see another inept offense

 

[JMick]

that's an illegal touching penalty. why was it not called?

 

[uconnphil2016]

I think he's injured

 

[JMick]

I think he's injured

I think he has David Carr syndrome.

 

[TRest]

Scoring I the first quarter is for glamour boys.

 

[noeynox]

I think he's injured

could be. Certainly not running like he did earlier in the year and at times last year.

 

[RedStickHusky]

playing calling was actually decent on that 2nd drive - just gotta get a completion

 

[Jimdish255]

Lotra head shaking on the Cincinnatti sidelines

 

[RedStickHusky]

short field here; can we win the 1st qtr?

 

[WestCoastHusky]

Am I witnessing Bob bring aggressive? We actually blitzed vs. sitting back and being picked apart. Did we try to pass at least? BS can't throw for jack on the run. I hope someday we get one that can.

 

[kobe]

We cannot beat a man who wears red pants.

 

[WestCoastHusky]

Thank god we got Thomas!
