First-half thread for NU vs. Nevada

[lou v]

Pretty sparse crowd today, as expected. They had a nice moment of silence for Ara Parseghian before the national anthem.

They announced that Marcus McShepard is also out today. So that means that Keith Watkins, Travis Whillock and McShep are all out today in the defensive backfield.

 

[TheC]

Yikes... hope our DBs don't get tired. Not a lot of depth.

Rough news about Watkins. REally feel for the kid. A fellow Moeller man.

 

[DrillCat]

Lets go cats!

 

[Alaskawildkat]

BTN went blank here in Alaska just as the game was about to start. Anyone else just getting a dark screen?

I read Mayo and Campbell out too. WtF?!?

 

[CoralSpringsCat]

Slater starting on OL. Wow!

Ugly game so far

 

[Seattle_Cat]

Looking better on D

 

[TheC]

Well.,., crummy first drive. Very conservative playcalling.

You need to switch to the main BTN channel from an alternate. Same thing happened to me.

 

[TejasCat]

Pretty sure McShephard is starting

 

[TheC]

Great job by the D. Swarming all over.

 

[TejasCat]

Don't see Paddy in there, playing McGee with 2 LBs

 

[CoralSpringsCat]

Pretty sure McShephard is starting

Yes #7 definitely out there on D.

You're starting early this year?

 

[Seattle_Cat]

Same old OL

 

[TejasCat]

yikes OL

 

[Seattle_Cat]

Punt almost blocked

 

[mikewebb68]

Long!

 

[Seattle_Cat]

Maybe the D will have to win the game for us

 

[Seattle_Cat]

JJ has strong legs

 

[lou v]

Yes #7 definitely out there on D.

Lou V with the #FakeNews

Just telling you what they announced before kickoff. #FakeNews

 

[Figrating]

Furious pace of this game...

 

[lou v]

Run the ball, Mick. Nevada has six in the box when NU spreads the field.

 

[TejasCat]

Dickerson is gonna be a huge part of this offense

 

[Figrating]

Nice hands, M!

 

[mikewebb68]

Maybe the D will have to win the game for us

Blah, blah, blah.

Thanks for the response. Must be an issue with my carrier. We only have the main channel and the tag line reads NU game. Am on wait with the cable provider tech support.

 

[Seattle_Cat]

So maybe we'll play long ball this season. An earlier attempt was just a little off

 

[TejasCat]

The extra point looked very solid (unlike previous years)

 

[TheC]

Great throw by Clayton!

 

[mikewebb68]

If we consistently get behind the D like Brown and Wilson have done so far, gonna be a long day for Nevada.

 

[mikewebb68]

Ugh. Clearly they are feeding the alternate channel.

 

[Seattle_Cat]

Throw was just a little off. Look for them to try it again

 

[Alaskawildkat]

I take it we got on the board first with a TD?

 

[mikewebb68]

Just telling you what they announced before kickoff. #FakeNews

It appears he is playing with some sort of injury tho.

 

[Seattle_Cat]

That was a bad throw

 

[Figrating]

NU D getting pushed around.

 

[TheC]

Boy, Nevada made an adjustment on that drive. Too easy.

 

[gocatsgo2003]

NU D getting pushed around.

They hit the backside on one run. Before that point, NU had easily been the more physical team. We had a slant called at the wrong time. It happens.
