UCONN vs Western Michigan 2nd Half Game Thread

[sportsart]

Ref almost pulled the flag for high stepping before end zone. Watched his hand reach then stopped.

 

[HuskyNan]

Great play! I thought for sure the ref was reaching in to throw the flag for taunting. Act like you've been there before Lyle.

Freshman...

 

[epark88]

OK, D: make THE play today!...

 

[coachRD]

Freshman...

I know-I hope this is addressed the way Edsall would have-that way it won't ever happen again. By the rule, that flag should have been thrown.

Hey, if i'm correct, our D has held WMU to -5 rushing yards. I realize this is not a strong rushing team, but that is nasty good.

sidenote: we have allowed 301 yards passing......

I'm considering it a make up call for when the refs didn't throw the flag when the ISU player high-stepped in from 10 yards out.

We give up a 3rd and long. WMU is driving...we are losing momentum.

 

[Tommyboy]

Can we defend a slant?

come on Defense... They are killing us again on short slants

 

[epark88]

Make a PLAY, D. Any kind of play!...

 

[uconnbaseball]

This is brutal to watch. Very frustrating. Seems like whenever we get a lead in the 2nd half, we lose it instantly.

You have to be kidding me.

 

[jrazz12]

well thats annoying

 

[UCDaveD]

They made that look easy.

 

[upstater]

Go ahead touchdown Picozzi?

 

[Tommyboy]

Wow d. Nice step up.

uggh

Between the play-by-play guy not knowing the score and the halftime crew getting on a player (Blidi) who is injured for not making plays, SNY's sports coverage screams rinky-dink. But at least it's HD.

 

[fortebleedsblue]

well one thing is obvious.... We miss Blidi BAD

 

[ktuck911]

Geesh (smh) ... it seems like they're in our playbook on D... they threw all over our defense on that drive.... That Jordan White kid is a player.... You'll see him playing on Sundays no doubt.....

 

[cryjeremiah]

wow... Well that was deflating. I guess I should have expected it, though.

 

[epark88]

Our D makes great plays, but they don't make THE play. Not a sign of a good team.

Are we good?...

Just said the same thing to my wife. This team has shown ZERO ability 5 games into the season to sustain any level of success at all. We have 10 minutes to win a tie game at home against a solid MAC team that is missing 3 starting Olinemen. If we can't win the next 10 minutes, we deserve to stay home come bowl season this year.

I will say it again, we have a top 25 D. Not every D can stop a team or come up with a big play every game. And they do make THE plays. Watch the Vandy game again. Then watch the qb allow the other team to make THE play.

 

[sdhusky]

Time for a player to make a play.

I think even if we win this game we will be staying home for a bowl. There are simply too many glaring holes on that O. And special teams has regressed from outstanding to sub par.
