UConn vs Syracuse Game Thread- SQUEEZE THE ORANGE!

[sdhusky]

Newsome is the most elusive guy. How does he not get a toouch?

 

[VPDcurt]

I can't stand Shirreffs anymore. Painful. He plays like he's still in middle school.

 

[TitleTown]

Shirreffs is TERRIBLE!

 

[ArmyHuskyFan]

So disappointing. Given the gift call and throw it away. This OLine is just terrible.

 

[JcHusky95]

Why feed Rin Johnson the ball 3 times in a row? He has proven to not be effective at the goal line! Navy, UVA. Dude gets hit and goes down, or goes lateral. Give it to Newsome.

That would have been ok in second down. How do you not have a pass first run second play set up.

 

[CoachUConn]

Yeah, let's run the same three run plays on the goaline, that'll work.

Sheeeeeesh. That was brutal.

 

[UConn990411]

You cannot play another game with the same OC.

Talk about an uncreative buffoon.

 

[Bryan Lord]

A few more downs and we would have gotten it in. By like 7th down for sure.

 

[The Viking]

When will they learn that our offensive line can't win trench warfare?

 

[SaeHusky]

Horrendous - where was Newsome. He's the only guy that can make a defender miss. Unreal

 

[Matrim55]

 

[LRock34]

Again, they are spying Sherriffs. Verducci is freakin idiot

 

[Scoe]

WTF was that you really cannot be this stupid

 

[UconnWitt]

How'd they guess that QB option run play on forth and short?!?! Incredible!!!!

 

[superjohn]

Was there even a pass option on the play? Doomed to fail

No there wasn't, don't know why people are saying guys were open. That call and the previous three are on the coaches.

 

[firstnline]

That great and mighty offensive line just keeps better and better. They suck along with the play calliñg

 

[Husky1]

Problem w him running is he never even threatened to pass it - every other team knows it's 90% chance he will run and can commit their defense only to stop him - and it works

 

[JMick]

I really hope Williams can challenge Shirreffs for the starting job next year.

 

[sdhusky]

One of those areas where Newsome's lack of size if beneficial.

He can find seams that a smaller back can't and get that extra yard.

I saw Tomlinson score over 30 TDs in a season and he is small.

 

[Uconn77Duke74]

Play calling is embarrassing

 

[Scoe]

Just take the 3 there, plenty of time and the D would need to get a stop no matter what.

Absolutely dumb play calling. No other word for it.

 

[Storrsbred]

wow 3 runs in a row.

But, but, but the players want to stick it in and Diaco wants to show confidence in the line.
