UVA Game thread.

Lol....still hurts like crazy...

I was going to like this, but that would be inappropriate. Godspeed and feel better!

Urban Dictionary: Term used often in college football to refer to a team winning all of it's games, usually in a conference.

It was a joke; as in they lose every game the rest of the way.

 

[RedStickHusky]

Typical, the OLine always napping.

napping? they're violating the byu honor code.

I thought multiple people were all good, oh wait I get it.

 

[BNich]

Consider this; as uninspiring as the football has been, we are a coaches' decision away from being 3-0. I want everyone to appreciate that. I'd rather be a mediocre team that wins than a pretty team that loses. Keep growing, Huskies.

I'm right with you Dan. I'd pull my hair out if it was long enough to do so. My heart would have stopped at times if it was weak enough. But this team pulled it out. 1 more win means one less loss. On to the next week. This is 1930's leather cap no face mask football. As long as you score more points than the other team when the clock hits 0:00, you WIN. And WIN they did.

 

[BNich]

We all lost for witnessing that, all of us.

You know who didn't? The UConn Football team. They are now 2-1. Take your loss, but they took the WIN.

 

[BNich]

Yep. 2-1 doesn't cure that embarrassment. Very low expectations for the Syracuse game next week.

Haven't we all been laughing at Syracuse for more than a decade? New coach another "not so good" ACC team. Probably another squeaker.

I know.....had to post it anyway....

The one thing we did better this week was clock management. We had TO's at the end of each 1/2 and at times we almost ran a no huddle. It wasn't pretty but that was a big difference this week.

 

[BNich]

Burn the game tape.

But But But they can learn from their mistakes, make adjustments and CREATE A BETTER GAME PLAN. Ha Ha.

Bet the under on the points. Even if it's 2 points.

 

[cttxus]

Have you already forgotten the win against Tulane both last year and the year before?

Yes. I try to live in the present. But you have a point there. It ranks right up there though with way too many like it over the past few years.

I played another sport in college that happened to have some questionable assistant coaching at the time, and if you don't think our players are in the locker room saying how crappy that game and play calling was you are out of your mind. I was saying that in jest but there is nobody but Wain and Puyole coming out of Hartford puffing their chest.

I'm not a betting man and no gambler. Never put any money on a game in my life. Pete Rose told me not to.

Pretty sure Diaco is.

 

[kris1]

Oh good, Richmond and Stony Brook are on SNY next.....some real football.

 

[UCername]

Yes the clown in the red pants is, well played.

Stony Brook knocked off #2 Richmond, 42-14.

Glad we don't play Stony Brook.....

I suggested rushing the field but was overruled

 

[Justauconnfan]

Time of possession in the first half....UVA - 18:17 Uconn - 11:43.

So I posted this at halftime.....interesting that the time of possession at the end of the game was UVA - 28:27 Uconn - 31.33. That means the UVA offense only had the ball for a little over 10 minutes for the entire second half. Amazing what can happen when you keep the other teams offense off the field......

We should try to do this more in the first half.

... which might not have been possible for early departers

 

[Waquoit]

The one thing we did better this week was clock management.

Only by default. The end of the 1st half was botched. And that late pass cost them 30 seconds and would have made the final dramatics unnecessary. And they couldn't even center the ball.

Question. What was the deal with the referees today? First, I don't think they even announced any calls on the field. Second, there were several times, especially on that punt or the play the Huskies got in before the refs decided to reply the prior catch, that they all looked clueless on. Was there any explanation on TV?

It was an ACC crew so UVA can't claim home cooking.
