Game thread for Northwestern vs. Maryland

[lou v]

It's the backup QB battle in College Park: Edwards for Maryland vs. Sullivan for NU. Hilinski is available, Tagovailoa is not.

Let's get it on!

Cmon Cats

 

[FeralFelidae]

Good start!

 

[CappyNU]

Priebe looked like he was in a lot of pain...

 

[CatManTrue]

Priebe’s hurt. Shit.

 

[phatcat]

Priebe looked like he was in a lot of pain...

Yeah not sure what happened but he ain't happy

 

[FeralFelidae]

Priebe looked like he was in a lot of pain...

Hell, he wasn't even moving for a bit.

 

[CatManTrue]

And Skoronski blows pass pro to give up an easy sack on 3rd down.

At least we got a first down.

 

[julescat]

Dirty play by Maryland d lineman, IMO

 

[CappyNU]

MD player crashed into his left leg and appeared to hold on to Priebe's foot as he was twisted down? Borderline dirty play right there.

 

[MC_Cat]

Let's make these guys pay that was a cheap shot.

 

[phatcat]

Wow defense aggressive as hell. Love seeing it

 

[FeralFelidae]

Wow defense aggressive as hell. Love seeing it

They ate their Wheaties today.

 

[TerraCat]

Wow that pass was errant...not promising...

Yeah it may not have been as bad if the guy didn’t hold onto his leg. In his defense the guy rolled backward and wouldn’t have known if that might have been the QB or RB.

 

[phatcat]

What is this "tackling " that is going on?

 

[wildcatpn]

Firestone getting some reps.

 

[FanatiCat]

They’re taking huge shots with their backup QB. Time for us to stretch the field or they will just stack up on Hull.

 

[mkilla]

Firestone and Devin Turner getting some playing time early.

Good call!

 

[TerraCat]

Wow that throw was nice!

As I said…

 

[corbi296]

Firestone getting some reps.

Love to see it.

 

[Troy4L]

Wondering why it took so long to see Sullivan

 

[TheC]

I’m confused. We have a non zero number next to our name while the other team has a zero. Can someone explain this concept?

 

[phatcat]

Hilinski practices better

 

[CatManTrue]

Wondering why it took so long to see Sullivan

Hilinski looked pretty good the first two games of the season.

 

[FanatiCat]

Wow that throw was nice!

No, the board experts said he has a noodle arm based on Twitter videos.

 

[CatManTrue]

Defense has looked a lot better so far.

And they nearly gave up a play to the goalline right before the quarter ended. JOOOOON!

 

[BosCat]

I’m confused. We have a non zero number next to our name while the other team has a zero. Can someone explain this concept?

And now the first quarter ended and we have more points

 

[phatcat]

And now the first quarter ended and we have more points

If we have more points, that's good, right?

 

[nickcat4]

Here we go🥶

 

[nickcat4]

Here we go🥶

Poor tackling

 

[TheC]

Didn’t take Maryland long to figure out JON

 

[FanatiCat]

We are going to be screwed if we can’t finish those pressures with sacks. He’s converted multiple third downs off those now. And now a TD when it should have been a 3rd and 12(!) stop and a long FG attempt.
Not only that, the butterfly effect - ORourke wouldn’t have been on the field to get injured if we made that stop.

 

[phatcat]

Didn’t take Maryland long to figure out JON

Yeah that's the JON we know and (don't) love. Running around, out of position, reaching, grabbing, missed tackles

 

[TheC]

Sullivan“s feet are making a difference

 

[TheC]

That’s why you throw down field

 

[phatcat]

That's nice by Sully

 

[phatcat]

What is this thing where you kick it between the goalposts?
