Western Michigan @ Northwestern Open Game Thread

[NWFAN66]

Looks like wmu made adjustments and typical NU makes 0

 

[Alvious]

Holy cow our D looks bad right now.

 

[Alaskawildkat]

Wake up Cats.

 

[kreggk]

This could get ugly. We couldn't stop a high school with our DL.

 

[bjm989]

Brutal start to second half. Very disappointing.

 

[Alvious]

Let's hope that was an aberration.

 

[TejasCat]

Hartage has to do better than that if he wants to keep his job

 

[bjm989]

Let's hope that was an aberration.

We better go score and then prove that on D the next series.

 

[kreggk]

Anything you guys want me to look out for from the box in the 2nd half?

Could you look to see if our defense is still in the Evanston area?

 

[FanatiCat]

Pretty much done if we don't score this next drive. Our D will be toast if they have to get back on the field right away.

 

[NWFAN66]

May have to change my views of defense If D can't make stops it's gonna be a LONG year

 

[CommodoresAndCats]

The d line is getting man handled

 

[Hungry Jack]

Good thing we set all those records in the weight room.

 

[Fitz51]

Well, that first drive was fun. Why was everyone seemingly so convinced we'd easily handle this game?

 

[DopeTonic]

c'mon, wake up defense :/

 

[phatcat]

My fault. Have about 30 people over for a pre-wedding party and watching the Cats so of course they have to sh1t their pants

 

[EvanstonCat]

WTF

 

[WestCoastWildcat]

That opening 2nd half drive was way too easy for WMU. Our offense better start getting it together.

 

[TheC]

We just suck. Its that simple. Our DL looks like the old teams when I was there. Getting stood straight up at the line and not coming anywhere near the QB. Awful.

 

[kreggk]

Outcoached. Period.

 

[Alvious]

Leave it to us to throw a 14 yd pass on 3rd and 15.

 

[MacrayCat]

OL is getting absolutely manhandled. It's frightening, as WMU's DL is NOT good by any means.

 

[Fitz51]

Wrong team was favored.

 

[MacrayCat]

Could you look to see if our defense is still in the Evanston area?

Looked both ways, haven't come across anything yet.

 

[MacrayCat]

Big stand by the defense there. They look gassed but that is a big stop.

 

[WoodersonCat]

Outstanding way to start 2nd half.

That was not a horse collar. Terrible call. Tied for worst call of the day with the 3rd and 17 3-man rush.

 

[Alvious]

3 and out and we caught a punt!

 

[Alaskawildkat]

Nice stop

 

[Alaskawildkat]

Nice catch Justin

 

[CommodoresAndCats]

do some of the hand offs look semi botched to you guys? It looks off rhythm

 

[TheC]

Walker looks soooo slow. Scary.

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Holy cow our D looks bad right now.

We ran into our own guy twice! Nice run!

 

[Alaskawildkat]

Yes

 

[DopeTonic]

Hell yeah, good job Justin!

 

[Alvious]

JJTBC!

 

[Alaskawildkat]

With that TD run is JJ over 100 today?

 

[TejasCat]

yea baby!!! he looks kinda slow though in the open field.
C'mon D step up now!

 

[DopeTonic]

How we says in czech rep. Who is now saddled horses? Wildcats!

 

[MacrayCat]

With that TD run is JJ over 100 today?

96 yards on 16 rushes. 2 TDs.

 

[CoralSpringsCat]

Great block by Doles on the TD run. GD helped too.

 

[Deeringfish]

I think its because WMU is always sending at least 5 guys on throwing downs and Clayton can't make them pay by picking out the hot receiver.

Meanwhile we use a three man rush on 3 and 17 and naturally lose containment

 

[Deeringfish]

Western's offense makes it look pretty easy
