UConn vs Syracuse Game Thread- SQUEEZE THE ORANGE!

[VPDcurt]

Does anyone else find it odd that they play Darude's "Sandstorm" whenever we notch a TD? It's 16 years old. I don't know what I'd think if they played Kenny Loggins' "Footloose" at Memorial Stadium when I was a freshman in 2000...

They should play the brass bonanza

 

[The Viking]

Not to mention the fact you are facing a coach who specializes in offense and stuffing as many plays in as possible and had two timeouts
Don't put babers in a position to have 35 seconds or whatever to start
Alright I'm done with that its not the worst timeout issues he's had let's keep Bryant in shotgun and win this game

 

[uconnphil2016]

I was just about ready to leave this game in a huff and then the boys turned it around

 

[Scoe]

Get the ball to start the 2nd half lets take advantage of it.

 

[Jimdish255]

Will staff learn? They need to open it up.

We're about to find out.

 

[Walker11]

Chavous is consistently very good, for what it's worth.

 

[UconnWitt]

I feel like I'm watching the basketball team...trailing going into the second half against a team we should be beating.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Amazing. Misdirection makes defense play horizontal instead of vertical.

 

[Jimdish255]

Totally disagree with that call either run or throw it deep over the middle

 

[sdhusky]

That FG is on Bobby. No need to call timeout with :40. Syracuse tried to give it back by not calling timeout with :20.

They made 3 low percentage plays in a row and then a long FG. Good for them.

 

[BlueDogs]

Meyers has to make that catch

 

[Chin Diesel]

Totally disagree with that call either run or throw it deep over the middle

If you're talking 3rd and 2, I'm with you.

UConn has actually moved the pile consistently all game. Two runs, get the first down and move the chains. SU hasn't stopped UConn on short yardage situations when UConn runs.

 

[Jimdish255]

You're at midfield maybe take a shot at least once!!!!

 

[ScottBonz]

I know we want to see the pass but we are actually running well today. We have had very few negative plays so far.

 

[Kevin Caliendo]

terible play call on third and 2. Uconn o-line was winning battles and TOP...then throw that? Dumb. And the slant was wide open.

UConn will this game if they just continue to pound Syracuse and not give up 175 yards to one WR

Why give them a chance?

 

[RedStickHusky]

Meyers has to make that catch

ball got on him a little quick but yeah.. i'd rather see them take two runs at it on 3rd and 2 from there.

 

[Scoe]

Great job by the crowd

 

[BlueDogs]

Omg - great job saving field position

 

[TheRogers]

Way to pull it in!

 

[sdhusky]

Why give them a chance?

Beause at that time, Diaco didn't know it would only take us 3 plays to score.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Shirreffs has been off all game.

 

[BlueDogs]

Throw in the middle of the field please

 

[UconnWitt]

A nice breakdown of Syracuse alum who work in media currently undermining us...wonderful.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Like the quick snaps on these down and short all game.

 

[UCFBfan]

I like the short passes. Mix it up with the run game and keep them off balance

 

[Scoe]

These plays are way too slow.

 

[BlueDogs]

Why 2 QB options

 

[VPDcurt]

Sometimes it looks like our O line is asleep

 

[UCFBfan]

Ugh...that play call on third and long almost worked but man...now we kick the fg
