UConn vs Temple game thread

Dang...Boyle hit him right on the numbers!

 

[UConnDan97]

Wow. I stand corrected. Boyle had the shotgun, had a clean pocket, and almost threw a pick-6. I'm thinking it's Anderson time...

 

[Dooley]

This game reminds me of the USF last year in the rain. We can't throw the ball so we're not even going to try.

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

Welcome to a world without BS.

JSM. Be careful what you wish for.

But the tear down of 2014!!!!!!!

 

[MilliniumPrince]

Defense will either need to score or force multiple turnovers

 

[Waquoit]

The way this game is being coached makes me more excited about UConn FB than I have been in a long time. These guys get it.

 

[4UConn]

That was a Eli Manningesque

 

[Dooley]

I wasn't being serious. I guess I should have made that clearer.

Oh, my bad. I'm too agitated with Boyle to read sarcasm.

 

[sub legacy]

Enough. Bench Boyle.

No. We spare feelings around these parts.

You are being too subtle .

Run twice and then throw on 3rd and 10?

Really?

While, Boyle is getting all the grief on this board, he's facing 3rd & 10 every possession! Not a recipe for success. Verducci needs to open it up. It's comical how predictable we are after the first series.

I still have ptsd from that experience

 

[MilliniumPrince]

He hasn't been allowed to throw consecutive passes all game. They only let him throw on 3rd and long...how good could he look under those circumstances?

 

[superjohn]

Boyle is bad, should not be playing.

 

[Jimdish255]

Really?

It's a terrible plan executed perfectly. Might as well punt on 1st down so we don't go backwards.

 

[Dove]

You know things are going badly when Xavier HS has an apology on their website.

 

[HuskyTx]

looks like the defense is tossing in the towel now as well. Hey we won more than we thought we would this season, too bad these kids are content with being embarrassed to finish the season

 

[dirtyd]

no respect

 

[Dooley]

We're not throwing on 1st or 2nd down for a very simple reason: we can't not throw the football with Tim Boyle. His last throw hit one of their DL in the numbers. He couldn't get within 10 yards of a wide open Beals on the run. He almost got Thomas killed throwing into triple coverage. He is lousy.

Over dramatic much?

 

[UConnDan97]

Thank God for this D. Keeping us in this thing...

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

Why is Carrezola playing FB? Save him for defense.

 

[Dooley]

Defense is battling. Really hope we see Anderson on this upcoming drive.

 

[HuskyTx]

Over dramatic much?

how about they prove what i said wrong? Looks like the defense might be tired of getting embarrassed, hold em here and I'll stand corrected, but these coaches, it seems they are content with being embarrassed to finish out the season

Doesn't look that way to me but throw the team under the bus if you want to. Temple is top 20 this year and we aren't.

You stand corrected

Thats like them applying pressure to an abdominal gunshot wound. Slow death made slower.

I think u need to take a break from the game son. Don't know what you expected this season. Get a grip.

lol, I love how you immediately go to "throw them under the bus." How about these kids start playing with some heart? How about the coaching staff go all-in and start playing to win instead of to keep it a close loss? To me, that is embarrassing. Not even attempting to move the ball is flat out wrong. Again, like I said earlier, if that's the game plan, then kneel it 3 times and punt. Why even risk getting someone hurt?

 

[UConnDan97]

Temple - 44 plays, UConn - 27
Temple TOP - 23 min. UConn - 15 min.

If anyone thinks the D is the problem, it's time to reconsider the eye prescription...
