Wake Forest Post Game Thread

[Husker Husky]

Where can we watch the post game presser?

 

[Dizzy21]

can't watch. What's he saying.

Things that people are not allowed to type on here. Was maybe a minute and a half long and explicit.

 

[superjohn]

The worst officiating that I can remember witnessing live.

Wake's offensive line held on close to 1/3 of the plays and tackled a defensive lineman at least eight different times. No call.

Their DB's held on about a half dozen plays and there were four blatant interference penalties, all with no calls.

BS officiating for the entire game.

I was asking in that chat why holds weren't being called on Wake?

I think we have our answer.

would Jim Calhoun have been proud of Mora's press conference?

Evers was terrible. Poor decisions and a bunch of weak passes that seemed to die as they reached the receiver.

Sammis was awful. Every rollout takes away 2/3 of the field but I guess because Evers sees only 1 guy maybe he figures it doesn't matter. And how many times do we have to watch him call a run up the middle on 2nd and long? I almost lost a TV because of that.

Evers was supposed to bring a dual threat but today he never challenged the D with his feet. Without a running threat, without good decisions, without accuracy and without improvement what exactly are we doing? He's not getting better and Sammis is coaching down to his level. We can talk about the PI but that's not why we lost. Our offense has gotten worse.

What’s the answer? I’m confused.

How is it fair to have an ACC refereeing crew

 

[huskysupporter]

Because of refs. Period.

Huh?

I agree the choice to go Indy in football put the final nail in the coffin for football, but don’t understand the ref angle? Refs don’t like independent teams?

 

[Dizzy21]

For sure. Unfortunately UConn is probably taking it down anywhere it is on the internet, so it may be difficult to find.

 

[Jimdish255]

Bad non call but we did everything possible to lose this game.

Can't win with only 40 yards rushing. I thought the run game was supposed to fluorish with Evers under center?

When your passing game is terrible and your "running" QB doesn't know when to run and presents no challenge to the D and your OC shrinks the field and the playbook it makes it easy for the other team's coaches to stuff the run.

 

[Vowelguy]

Yeah things were so much better in the American. Having those 2 NCs in Basketball has been terrible .

 

[bazz&boujee]

Scoring 6 points in the first half against a bottom of the barrel ACC team had way more to do with the loss than any non call. But that’s a harder pill to swallow so…

It's very fair when the crew knows on the return game another conference's officials will have the opportunity to settle any scores. When you're an independent (not named Note Dame) and you bring officials from whatever conference may have a spare crew, well......

 

[RioDog]

UConn robbed by the refs, with their Power5 bias obviously showing. They were the better team today. Feel bad for the kids. This loss probably cost UConn a Top-25 bid and Bowl Game invite to boot.

UConn was NOT the better team- QB play and play-calling were putrid until desperation time when it was too late. WF lines outplayed ours most of the game. Bowl-game invite? Uconn has 5 more games to win two for bowl eligibility.

 

[superjohn]

Same reason they didn't call the blatant pass interference they were staring at to end the game. ACC crew, they didn't want UConn winning that game.

He has every right to be upset and should rip into the refs. I hope he also held himself accountable because he coached a bad game.

Would have helped if we could have done some winning in the AAC consistently.

 

[Dizzy21]

He came out hot and said it was BS (full version) and went off on the refs being ACC, but also said that the game should not come down to the last play a few times, someone asked a question about the refs and he went off and said it shouldn't come down to the last play, but they at least deserve a F-bomb fair game. Then asked if anyone else had any questions and everyone was sort of shocked in silence and he left. It lasted a little over a minute.

i'd love to see refs picked for a game roughly the same way an arbitrator is picked for arbitration.

Each team is given a list of refs that are available. Each team gets to strike a certain number from the list, then rank ~five in order of preference.

 

[Derucky]

To whoever reads this and can do it, make that play and Mora's post game comments go worldwide.

 

[psilotic]

 

[temery]

And the refs just get to hop on a plane and head down south after something like that?

I'd love to see a mandatory ref post game press conference.

 

[F101Voodoo]

Nick Evers has his best passing game of the season and the thing you focus is the lack of running game? Do you think being down two starting guards didn't play a role?

I think , no I know that a high number of us fans are talking / complaining out of frustration.

I thought both the O line and D line for Wake was better. Having a six year QB also helped.

 

[F101Voodoo]

There are bad calls, and then there are calls so bad that the game announcers signed off saying that it was bad for UConn, bad for football and even bad for the team that won because we’ll never know how this football game would have ended.

Excellently stated,;Tnx
