NU/Wisconsin 2nd Half Thread

[freewillie07]

I love that decision to go for 2. Even though it didn’t work. That playcall usually works. Brilliant.

People with any intelligence whatsoever recognize that you're deflecting with a transparent gambit like the good old, "You're a troll!" piffle. That's a slur, not an argument.

I can't name a single fanbase in major college athletics with lower expectations than this one. It's remarkable. And the rationalizations. It's like this pretend world where ND and Stanford don't exist. I mean, how can we possibly expect to recruit better players with our admission standards? These sorts of performances should be putting people's jobs on the line. The ghost of John McKay should rise from the grave to answer the question,

"What do you think of your team's execution?" with,
"I'm all for it."

“Slur?” Are you kidding me?

 

[BFDCat]

Do I miss something about the decision to go for two?

[AtlantaCat]

Who cares how many posts he has (or doesn't)?

And you're hardly the one who call others a troll.

He is the single biggest irritant on this Board.

 

[big timer]

Yes - create overload sides. Bring in max protect to give more time (in theory).

I can see you’re not interested in really reading the gist of my posts, so whatever - keep flaming.

Your solution is “block better?”

 

[bjm989]

Good old Cats! When’s the last time we saw NU recover an onside? It’s been awhile.

 

[FeralFelidae]

NO! There was NO reason to do it! Now we HAVE to go for 2! STUPID!

 

[ChappyCat]

I love Fitz- I really do, but you aren't aggressive on offense for three weeks, but you decide to get aggressive on a 2 pt play when a PAT puts you down 14?? If you wanna roll the dice to WIN the game, do it after your final score

 

[AtlantaCat]

Most folks who play the objectivity card do so to make themselves feel better.

Go.

I really don’t understand that call to go for two. Really makes no sense to me when you have shown this week and last week how much your offense struggles in goal line situations.

 

[phatcat]

Wow that was cool

 

[freewillie07]

I really don’t understand that call to go for two. Really makes no sense to me when you have shown this week and last week how much your offense struggles in goal line situations.

I kind of think that Fitz thought “if we score 11, and Wisconsin doesn’t score the rest of the game, we can say we outscored them on offense.”

 

[BFDCat]

Catch the damn ball!

Because you think we could put two or three men in patterns and get open?

 

[bjm989]

OMG.

 

[Alaskawildkat]

Still in the game with that successful onside kick recovery and the Wisconsin penalty.

 

[Titanium999]

Jefferson has to catch that ball

 

[gocatsgo2003]

Go.

Ditto.

 

[BFDCat]

Our QBs cannot read the blitz coming.

 

[Titanium999]

Aiden ain't the answer

 

[TheC]

Who teaches our qbs? Fire that guy.

 

[bjm989]

“Slur?” Are you kidding me?

You got it, bud. It's meant to shut down debate, like in politics, when slurring someone as a "racist/sexist/bigot/homphobe" is used in place of an intelligent argument.

 

[BFDCat]

Finally a blitz pick up

 

[Titanium999]

Smith looks ok now! We needed Green

 

[Alaskawildkat]

Impressive drive by Smith so far. 4th and one coming up.

 

[freewillie07]

Impressive drive by Smith so far.

It’s just garbage time.

 

[HawkCat]

Why was that Jefferson catch not reviewed in such a close game? Might cost us here.

 

[Titanium999]

We can win! Score here and stop em and score again. Smith looks decent.

 

[gocatsgo2003]

You need some thicker skin and a backbone if you think “troll” is a slur.

 

[BFDCat]

Impressive drive by Smith so far.

Hard to say if Wiscy is playing more of a prevent, but yeah now that he seems to have settled down a bit he looks pretty good.

 

[Jonny2TheP]

It’s just garbage time.

Agree 100% he’s not facing nearly what Hunter was, but glad to see he’s taking what they give him. Also building confidence for what could be a possible start next week depending on the extent of Hunter’s injury:

 

[BFDCat]

How about that from Smith?

 

[freewillie07]

Agree 100% he’s not facing nearly what Hunter was, but glad to see he’s taking what they give him. Also building confidence for what could be a possible start next week depending on the extent of Hunter’s injury:

Oh yes definitely. But people could easily get the wrong impression that he is an upgrade over Hunter. Which he clearly is not.

 

[Alaskawildkat]

Into the red zone!

 

[bjm989]

Going for two was such a horrible coaching move.

 

[Alaskawildkat]

TD!

 

[HawkCat]

Going for two both times cost us a chance to win. Unreal.

 

[freewillie07]

Perfect! Down 9!

 

[BFDCat]

Seriously? Is the kicker hurt? Do we not have a backup? Can't wait for Fitzs smart ass bullshit after the game.
