UCONN game thread

[TU4ever2]

Anyone who handles the ball for TU should have both hands duct taped to the ball all week so they’ll be used to it by game time. Two hands on the ball!

Or have a coach take the time to teach them how to use the correct hand when running with the ball. You know basic coaching stuff

 

[URedskin54]

An aggressive drive...and a TD. Nice

 

[TU4ever2]

Oh, I am agreeing with you. Unless you can recruit the top level talent this offense is impossible. Have President run the Wishbone if he is healthy, it can't go any worse than it has.

That would require a coach with team and situational awareness. Instead let's bang that square peg in a round hole because this hammer has worked before . . .

 

[TulsaAM]

Now that looked familiar... passing to open up the running game. It was a rainbow into double coverage that Hobbs was able to pull in but I am not going to look a gift horse in the mouth...

 

[TU4ever2]

An aggressive drive...and a TD. Nice

I'll believe we'll win, when the clock hits zero and we have more points than the other team on the board. I have no faith in this staff

 

[Henry Kendall]

UConn QB> our whole team

 

[aTUfan]

Can we turn the clock back an hour and start over.

 

[TU 1978]

UConn QB> our whole team

We make mediocre QBs look great.

 

[TulsaAM]

Holy Cow! A SLANT pattern

 

[URedskin54]

Completing a couple passes makes a huge difference

 

[TU_BLA]

UConn QB> our whole team

He’s fast that’s about it.

 

[cmullinsTU]

Holy Cow! A SLANT pattern

Gotta be the first time all season we ran a slant. At least the first time we passed to that route anyway.

 

[TulsaAM]

Caught them on the big run, they were in what looked like a stunt and we had the right blocking scheme called for it.

That TD, Tulsa looked like they knew what they were doing on offense.

 

[TU 1978]

At least Boomer didn’t hold the ball in one hand like a loaf of bread that time.

 

[TulsaAM]

Gotta be the first time all season we ran a slant. At least the first time we passed to that route anyway.

Need a slot receiver to run it which is a different offense, not sure where he came from. I nearly dropped my beverage. With the Baylor spread, slants usually turn into a pick-6

 

[TulsaAM]

At least Boomer didn’t hold the ball in one hand like a loaf of bread that time.

He stuck that ball out like a screaming baby when he crossed the line. Sarcasm was my major at TU

 

[URedskin54]

Absolutely gorgeous throw

 

[TulsaAM]

Absolutely gorgeous throw

Ditto, nice throw and catch... smash mouth blocking up the middle on those runs as well.

 

[TU_BLA]

But we busted some runs on that drive which opened that up

,BTW, anyone at the game, the sound of the ball off of Romo’s foot is just different. He absolutely hammers the ball.

 

[nevadanatural]

Much better second quarter.

 

[TU4ever2]

4 touchdowns in less than 12 mins

2 rushers over 100 already

Pretty good

 

[URedskin54]

I don't think Trevis is ever gonna get a holding call. This dude is just wrapping him up on every pass rush

 

[TulsaAM]

Okay, that last throw from the UConn QB was a perfect example of "couldn't hit the broad side of a barn from the inside"

 

[URedskin54]

359 yards at the half. Haven't seen those kinds of numbers in a while. Thanks UCONN

 

[URedskin54]

So are yall going to tear down the goal post and carry it around the field like Burns era vs UTEP

 

[nevadanatural]

So are yall going to tear down the goal post and carry it around the field like Burns era vs UTEP

Wasn’t UTEP ranked at the time?

 

[URedskin54]

Wasn’t UTEP ranked at the time?

I could be wrong but I believe the one you're referring to was during Krag's one down year

 

[TulsaAM]

So are yall going to tear down the goal post and carry it around the field like Burns era vs UTEP

I'll ask my dad to storm the field for me, I can't do it from Chicago

 

[HuffyCane]

Wasn’t UTEP ranked at the time?

No. They were down too. One win, maybe two. They didn’t get ranked until Mike Price during the CUSA years.

 

[Original TULSAFAN]

There's no one there!

 

[cmullinsTU]

UCONN making us look like a Top 25 team.

@TU_BLA I thought you were exaggerating how bad UCONN is, you were right! WOW are they bad.

 

[cmullinsTU]

Anybody else notice Hobbs occasionally pulls from the slot and blocks in the back field on runs? I’d never seen him involved in the running game before.

 

[TulsaAM]

Now that was a nice pass and catch, Boomer to Hobbs

 

[URedskin54]

Another nice throw. And oh yeah we're pounding them on the ground

 

[TulsaAM]

I noticed that as well. Maybe with Minter out they have to get creative?

 

[TU Pilot]

Every RS better get time on that field at some point the rest of this game...

 

[TU_BLA]

There's no one there!

We left at half time along with mostly everyone else it seems. It was raining really hard and with little ones it’s hard to justify keeping them out late and being miserable. We were able to get home in time to watch the 2nd half kick though. And it looks like it is raining even harder right now.

 

[URedskin54]

This UCONN front 7 is almost as bad as OU's

 

[URedskin54]

Hey maybe don't taunt people when you're 1-7

But if they call this targeting they're basically outlawing football

 

[TU_BLA]

Garbage targeting right there. What the hell do they want tacklers to do?
