BC vs. UMass - Official Gameday Thead - 9/1/2018

[innocentbystander]

At the moment, NC State is "struggling" against James Madison.

[hansen]

UMass is not good.

[durkcal]

Wow - last 4 plays all look terrible at the 8 min mark of 2q

UMass is not good.

I really want the defense to hold them to just 7. The game is not in doubt (it never was) but a strong defensive showing from here on out would be nice.

Who is 50 something on the pressure?

[claver2010]

Shuffling line 70 in at LG

[hansen]

I’d be fine with no Dillon second half. Let’s start getting the backups in.

[Uptown Eagle]

I enjoyed that PAT sequence.

[hansen]

UMass had 9 guys within 6 yards of the LOS with the other 2 just a yard further back.

[Iggle]

gotta be honest that I wasn’t expecting this score at halftime. and it’s been with plenty of sloppy BC plays, too

[durkcal]

having a dominant OL makes football easy

[DomingoOrtiz]

AB has looked very good in the throw game

[hansen]

I’d be fine with no Dillon second half. Let’s start getting the backups in.

I’d be fine with no brown either if we are just going to keep handing the ball off. If we plan on continue to pass, then give him another quarter.

[Uptown Eagle]

Are there any other German soccer players with hyphenated names available for kickoff duties this year?

[durkcal]

Perry and Levy show 2H ! Love seeing the tight ends getting open. Hunter Long looked really good on that one play.

and Theobald

and Palmer

[hansen]

TD motherfucker
Dennis to the house after a 1 handed pick
NO STARTERS IN THE SECOND HALF

[Dick Rosenthal]

Wrong Hansen. You give Dillon a few more carries in the 3rd quarter, get him up to 120 or so yards and then sit him the rest of the way.

[innocentbystander]

NO STARTERS IN THE SECOND HALF

Agreed. This game is out of control.

We are approaching 2015 Howard-esque in lopsidedness of talent and performance. I would like to see the defense pitch a shut out for the second half, but the offense, rest everyone. There is no point putting any of the starting O-line on the field for the second half.

[hansen]

Wrong Hansen. You give Dillon a few more carries in the 3rd quarter, get him up to 120 or so yards and then sit him the rest of the way.

I know that’s what the conventional wisdom but fuck what’s the point in his silly game.
Anything more than 1 series in the second half is dumb.

P.s. he has 98 yards on 20 carries. 2 for 27, 1 TD receiving.

[innocentbystander]

NC State could seriously LOSE their game to JMU. Its unlikely they lose, but it is entirely possible.

This. You end his Heisman run early if he doesn't play a few drives

[DomingoOrtiz]

Starting D still in

"But he only had 98 yards against UMass."

What?

It’s nit picky, but giving the ball to Jones for 2 short TDS doesn’t help either

[hansen]

You dominate against VT, the Clemson, Miami, FSU no one will give a shit about what he did against UMass.

[twballgame9]

It's all nitpicking and under normal circumstances it's definitely the right thing to do, but Dillon isn't winning the Heisman unless he is close to perfect and 98 against UMass, even if it's only in a half, is not good. 30-40 more and Jones 2 TDs, and he's off and running.

From a team standpoint, this is much better. And im fine with it.

No. Not when you aren't a frontrunner.
