1st Half Game Thread UW

[TejasCat]

Are Lancaster and Thompson getting manhandled? On the TD they were both stood up, and the RB ran right by them.

 

[TheC]

I have to think JJTBC is hurt. The running game is moving better with Larkin.

 

[TejasCat]

Thorson has to be better with the pocket presence

 

[freewillie07]

Thorson needs to be better. Full stop.

 

[phatcat]

Who's up for a long FG try?

 

[SmellyCat]

I want to see what Kuhbander has here, but that's just me.

 

[CatManTrue]

Well, so far their plan to run all over us isn't working.

Posted too soon. They're jamming it down our D's throat.

 

[corbi296]

Who's up for a long FG try?

I'd kick the field goal. I think Kuhbander is ready to make those kind of kicks.

 

[lou v]

Clayton Thorson is 5-for-5 for 40 yards passing. But he's also been sacked twice for -12 yards.

 

[iskaboo]

Why not kick it, unless the wind is fierce?

 

[TheC]

Basically like a punt.

 

[TheC]

Still no pass protection. They rush 4 and get right to Clayton.

 

[Smokejumper]

Ol couldnt handle a slow developing stunt forcing thorsen to rush the pass

 

[LACatFan]

Guess NU is playing the refs today as well. That's 2 x non calls that favored the Badgers at this point.

 

[freewillie07]

God these announcers are awful. Justifying no penalties on Wisconsin, even when they're obvious, because "it's Big Ten play." OK.

 

[TheC]

Sack!!!

 

[TheC]

Pick!!!!!!

There's one

 

[corbi296]

What a pick by Pace. Great play. Following a nice sack by SAm Miller. Freshmen stepping up today.

 

[julescat]

jr pace. very nice! good to get rush also (no kidding).

 

[Figrating]

Big stop. MOOOOOVE, NU O!!!!!!!!!!

 

[LACatFan]

Suddenly NU has found a pass rush. Love it!

 

[TheC]

I love JJ, but I think we need to go more Larkin. JJ is clearly not 100% and with this OL, we need a back to hit the hole fast.

These guys are very good announcer team. I don't think you are listening too well.

 

[SmellyCat]

I'm tired of watching Huard and Hornibrook play catch. On 3rd-and-1? Show it during some 2nd-and-10!

 

[iskaboo]

Cannot tell from watching TV why the pass rush is suddenly effective, but I ain't complaining!

 

[phatcat]

Too bad they won't develop ;-)

 

[DrillCat]

We need CT to pass wild today to have a chance.

 

[TejasCat]

My wife predicted that 3rd and 1 call

 

[DrillCat]

Or run.. lol

 

[TheC]

Man.. Fitz is the John Birch Society of college football coaching.

 

[DaCat]

3 and out after the interception. Playcalling is brutal.

 

[FitzFan]

We're getting reaaaaally good push on these unpredictable 3rd and 1 draws up the middle.

 

[iskaboo]

I am sure we can find the soft spot up the middle on 3 and 1 by the 4th quarter.

 

[HawkCat]

My wife predicted that 3rd and 1 call

Same as it ever was on third and one.

 

[TheC]

3 and out after the interception. Playcalling is brutal.

3 and out after both turnovers. Both failing to convert a 3rd and 1 with the same predictable play.

 

[DaCat]

Hornicek looks like he hurt his knee. Let's see how it affects his play.

 

[DrillCat]

I am sure we can find the soft spot up the middle on 3 and 1 by the 4th quarter.

The game maybe out of reach by the time we find a soft spot..

 

[Figrating]

3 and out after the interception. Playcalling is brutal.

SO predictable.

 

[TheC]

The Hornibrook hype was a product of playing crap teams.... just as I suspected.

 

[Deeringfish]

Too bad they won't develop ;-)

Not too many people criticize development on the Defense.

Or QBs or RBs
