FAU game thread - Adventures in Switzer land

[TU 1978]

Should be nice weather for the game, and hope there can be a decent crowd there.

 

[drboobay]

Sparse crowd! Easy to stretch out.

 

[TU1NNJ]

Legas has to throw that ball away when pressured

 

[TU 1978]

Some things never change. Playing a non throwing QB the first series and winding up with a 3rd and 17.

 

[TU1NNJ]

Poor tacliking

 

[TU 1978]

The defense looks slow to the ball.

Announcers said that Legas, Francis and Carpenter would probably play QB today. Too bad Wilson ran off Cardell. 🤬

 

[TU1NNJ]

If we tackle they would be off the field

 

[TulsaGrad07]

The defense looks flimsy.

 

[TU1NNJ]

Instead we are behind 7-0

 

[TU 1978]

Whoever is on the new staff has their work cut out for them.

 

[TulsaAM]

Well... not the start we wanted

 

[TulsaAM]

Well... not the start we wanted

 

[cmullinsTU]

Whoever is coaching the defense needs to focus on tackling. The guys keep tackling as if they don’t have arms

 

[TU1NNJ]

Enough of Legas. Play the young guys- preferably Carpenter

 

[TulsaGrad07]

Hope that was Legas' last series as a Hurricane. He sucks

 

[Babe the Blue Ox]

Well that didn’t fake out anyone.

 

[TU 1978]

Legas is the worst QB we have. Why is he even playing?

 

[cmullinsTU]

Fake didn’t work at all but I vote we just keep going for on 4th. The game doesn’t matter and it’ll make things interesting. Unless they all fail.

Legas could’ve easily ran for a 1st down on the 3rd down. Not sure why he attempted the throw to a well covered receiver instead.

 

[TU1NNJ]

Defense bails us out

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Hope that was Legas' last series as a Hurricane. He sucks

He's a grad student, as I mutter under my breath, idiot.

 

[TU1NNJ]

Legas can get out of trouble at times but doesn’t have pocket awareness

 

[TU 1978]

Good punt there inside the 5.

 

[drboobay]

We are bad in all kinds of ways. Can't pin it all on Legas.

 

[cmullinsTU]

We are bad in all kinds of ways. Can't pin it all on him.

Agreed. The OL is a much bigger problem. FAU is in the backfield so fast it looks like they’re running an all out blitz every play. But they’re really just sending one extra.

 

[TU1NNJ]

We are bad in all kinds of ways. Can't pin it all on Legas.

The O-line isn’t giving him time but he needs to be aware when it is collapsing

 

[TU1NNJ]

Safety

 

[cmullinsTU]

SAFETY!!!!!!

 

[TU 1978]

I don’t think we’ve registered a safety yet this year. Good result after that punt.

 

[TulsaFan01]

Just need 3 more safeties for the lead

 

[TU1NNJ]

There is nothing between the tackles. We have to run some misdirection and get the ball out on the edge quickly

 

[Babe the Blue Ox]

I’m ready to take another look at Carpenter. We may not be able to get 3 more safeties.

 

[I.I.]

Strong teams have good offensive lines. Gabriel would not look good in our offense.

 

[cmullinsTU]

I’m not even sure what we can call on offense with the way the OL has played in the first quarter. We are unable to run the ball inside or out and don’t seem to have quick enough WRs for quick passes.

Legas isn’t using his legs though so might as well put one of the better passers out there. He’s floated some balls to open guys more than once.

 

[TU1NNJ]

Great D stop

 

[TU1NNJ]

Just a poor decision

 

[cmullinsTU]

Ok, bench Legas after that pass

 

[TulsaAM]

Soooooo.... maybe it wasn't Wilson? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

 

[TulsaFan01]

Pretty sure Kevin Wilson is calling plays from the nursing home now

 

[TU 1978]

That pick 6 is on Legas.

Past time to bench him.

 

[TU1NNJ]

I want to see Carpenter, he is mobile and strong with a good arm. Francis has a great arm but not mobile enough with this line
