UConn/USF game thread

[kris1]

Now the door's open to run it up on us. D is gassed.

The D is gassed, but the poor tackling was prevalent from the start.

 

[kemba]

I ma not nearly as disheartened by this as most of you.

Just wish we had that Navy win.

Yea we got outplayed by a better team

 

[FDNY99]

41-20.

What was the line on this game again?

20.5

Kill Diaco if you want - but South Florida just has better players. It's not even really all that close.

 

[cheech63]

Did the defense think South Florida was just gonna milk the clock and be kind. They got what they deserved.

Wait, I was told CT high school football produces great players...after all, about a dozen are in the NFL out of several HUNDRED

I'd say they had a better player. Flowers was just crazy good tonight. Unstoppable...

Come on. They were in it. They just failed to sieze momentum when they had it.

It seems everybody has better,and faster players than Uconn.

 

[noeynox]

Ahh....if this was only a touch football game?

D played hard. They're only human offense remains too ineffective and doesn't complement them at all

 

[Scoe]

Sympathy flag?

 

[whaler11]

I have UConn +21 and had the over 52.5. Maybe at least reward me for my loyalty?

... and the plays were there to keep moving the ball.

Flowers is just as good as Ward.

So true. We had a pretty good showing. If we convert that third down where Shirreffs threw behind Beals, could have been a different game...that was the turning point. We were up 3 and needed a score to keep the momentum in our favor. That being said, USF was so much better than us and Flowers was a great runner. All in all, I think we're a better team than we were last year and are headed in the right direction. Really wasn't a bad game. Only major concern was blitz protection (obviously) and by association keeping BS alive.

 

[whaler11]

Yeah that's part of having better players. They hit Thomas open instead of throwing to Lemelle blanketed...

 

[FDNY99]

I'm absolutely serious.

How can the team compete on an elite level when the plan is to give up the lead and play from behind?

BS is NOT a college level QB Zoo...sorry...but he isn't! Dave Doren wanted too make him a fullback at NC St for a reason. He can't take his reads nor can he do his progressions. He has no touch on a dup ball and any pass over 40 yes is awfully under thrown. He isn't a sub 4.4 40 guy nor is he a real elusive runner. There for what does he bring to the table besides toughness and heart? Nothing skill wise that will put his team over the top.

 

[kris1]

Tyler Davis sighting

 

[noeynox]

The,difference is flowers. When you have a dynamic player like that touching the ball every play. We just can't match that

 

[CTMike]

The only reason this stands for “progress” is because Diaco tore things to the ground year 1. Why can other schools figure it out but not us?

 

[Scoe]

Houston has better players then Navy, Western Michigan vs Oklahoma State.

 

[Jimdish255]

Where was that play earlier?

 

[huskymedic]

ATS... ATS... ATS...

 

[Scoe]

Only 2 scores down we can do this.

 

[BlueDogs]

Bobby is pumping up the guys. GREAT improvement guys...on our way.

Whats your point? Upsets can happen. That doesn't mean you kill the coach when they don't

 

[whaler11]

What are you talking about? Yeah no kidding the better players don't win every game. Western Michigan didn't beat Oklahoma State - Central Michigan did. They also only beat them because the referees blew a call.

 

[Jax Husky]

that gotta stop settling for moral victories I'm not saying you are specifically but we gotta get rid of this were not good enough mentality, I still haven't gotten over the UVA and Cuse loses accepting this is accepting mediocrity.

Yeah yeah yeah, there are no moral victories, but i think we can be realistic. We are a decent team, at best. 7 regular season wins would be great...at this point.

 

[ZooCougar]

They have one better player.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Wow these guys just don't take a knee?

Cranberry Pants tore it down and forgot to rebuild.
