Game thread: Maryland vs. Northwestern

[NUCat320]

That is a huge defensive possession. Now get the ball and try to score.

Don’t run clock, TRY TO SCORE.

Guys in position to make tackles for no gain on those last 2 plays. Poor tackling.

And then two good tackles in a row prove your point

Guys in position to make tackles for no gain on those last 2 plays. Poor tackling.

And then two fantastic plays to get to 4th and long. Watching this defense is certainly a roller coaster

 

[TerraCat]

Love what Sullivan brings to this offense when he takes off!!

 

[NUCat320]

I was about to write how Sullivan seems more comfortable rolling out than taking yards up the middle, but then he did that. Beautiful.

 

[Deeringfish]

A field goal here would be significant.

 

[TerraCat]

Henning's speed made that catch. Great throw!

 

[Deeringfish]

Don't go backwards

 

[TerraCat]

Man, Maryland's penalties are really helping today!

 

[Deeringfish]

Don't go backwards

Nice flop

 

[NUCat320]

Did Olges take a soccer dive there? Go Cats!

 

[GrandRapidsCatFan]

Hes the JJ McCarthy we have at home

 

[Deeringfish]

NO Basketball flop

 

[TerraCat]

What a stupid play on 3rd and inches.!

 

[BFDCat]

Worst play call ever.

 

[phatcat]

That was some shite coaching right there.

 

[NUCat320]

I think NU thinks Lausch is more of a threat than any defense thinks he is.

I would’ve liked a tush push or…Porter again…there.

Still, points, made it a two possession game, made the kick, good drive.

 

[BFDCat]

That was some shite coaching right there.

Indeed, Bajakian trying to get cute, just ****ing hand the ball to Porter and if they stop him so be it. Jesus christ.

 

[bjm989]

Maryland gave us the 4 extra points there. We should have taken them.

 

[wildcatpn]

Worst play call ever.

Just awful. Half yard line. Sneak the damn ball.

 

[NUCat320]

Entering this drive, 312 yards of total offense for both teams, and a Maryland has actually outperformed NU on 3rd/4th down.

 

[corbi296]

Kilbane doing a good job getting some pressure on the QB.

Another key pressure from the big freshman.

 

[GrandRapidsCatFan]

Up 24 on the spread with 8 minutes left. Cat gamblers feeling good

 

[phatcat]

How about a nice 6 minute TD drive?

 

[BFDCat]

Running the ball isn't our thing today.

 

[zbag51]

I’m in the stands. For people on tv, was that not a TD?

 

[Deeringfish]

Ha Ha Ha. Milking the cow. I love it!

 

[Deeringfish]

I’m in the stands. For people on tv, was that not a TD?

it actually touched the ground.

 

[catfans5]

I’m in the stands. For people on tv, was that not a TD?

Come on. Wasn’t the video board replays good. Just awful video in the stadium.

 

[zbag51]

it actually touched the ground.

Ok thanks. Was hard to see.

 

[corbi296]

I’m in the stands. For people on tv, was that not a TD?

He flat out dropped the ball.

 

[phatcat]

Damn we needed that TD

 

[BFDCat]

Well that wasn't good.

 

[eddie_gocats]

Damn getting close…

 

[BFDCat]

Run the clock, get at least a FG.

 

[stpaulcat]

I don't like the look of this.

 

[BFDCat]

I don't like the look of this.

The lack of any sort of run game is going to kill us right now.

 

[NUCat320]

Let’s move the pocket on second down and rely on Sullivan.

 

[BFDCat]

This isn't going to end well I have a feeling, defense better step up.

 

[HungryEyes42]

Braun learning a valuable lesson as to what happens when you play not to lose.
