Official Gameday Thread - BC at UVA - 12/5/2020

[Supahfan99]

Not a good response. Garwo missed the pressure on 3rd down and Grosel almost tossed another pick.

[eepstein0]

The game where we needed the D to step up, they surrendered their worst performance.

When you’re wishing Mike Palmer could play you’re in rough shape

I’m here. This D is horrible.

[Supahfan99]

We need to pressure this QB... Jesus.

[EagleNYC]

UVA sucks, we should not be losing this game

UVA’s record may not be anything great, but if you look deeper you’ll see they are bad in close games. And 4-1 at home.

Embarrassing

This isn’t embarrassing without your starting QB and RB. The defense has been bad all season and having to start Grosel is a direct reflection of Daz’s QB recruiting (or lack thereof).

Meant the tackling on that QB run for a TD

[eaglesfan06]

If you are a high school player and want to play Power 5 football and BC offers how can you not commit on the spot. There is little to no one worthy of playing time after this year.

Should be a bunch of freshman starters next year.

EDIT: this is in reference to defensive players.

[claver2010]

need to keep hitting the transfer market for DL. zero pressure

Someone was fretting in the Recruiting thread that we were focusing too much on the defensive side of the ball. I think this game addresses that concern.

[eepstein0]

Missed a clear play clock violation there

[DomingoOrtiz]

Is that really their fight song???????????

[eepstein0]

Is that really their fight song???????????

Everyone locks arms and sways. Yes it is.

[eaglesfan06]

The fact that we have thrown 2 INTS that led to 14 points for UVa with UVa's atrocious DBs is embarrassing.

[MF73-Eleazar]

Must be a sight to see in a packed stadium.

[eaglesfan06]

Use 2 fucking hands....god that's fucking awful.

[eepstein0]

Must be a sight to see in a packed stadium.

It’s pretty stupid I’ll save you the road trip.

[eepstein0]

Their QB could literally brew a cup of coffee back there he has so much time

[MaxxPower325]

Both were essentially in the end zone. Cost us points both times, but the defense is embarrassing giving up points on both occasions.

Our defense sucks.

[EagleNYC]

We’re making this guy look like Michael Vick.

[HJS]

The fact that we have thrown 2 INTS that led to 14 points for UVa with UVa's atrocious DBs is embarrassing.

That’s a stupid take to absolve our shitty D.

Both INTs stopped BC drives that would’ve likely led to points. But, the D subsequently surrendered 14 points as those drives each averaged 90 yards. Points off of turnovers is a stat that speaks to granting your opponent great field position and preventing your D from getting a rest. Neither are at play when you have long drives that end in a turnover deep in the opponent’s territory. Defensively, that’s no different than having a punt downed inside the 10.

[hansen]

CAN ANYONE ON THIS TEAM FUCKING TACKLE?

[Supahfan99]

Kam Arnold got away with a brutal helmet to helmet hit on this potential TD.

[eaglesfan06]

This game is like a microcosm of BC sports.

We need better talent on D. I can’t even evaluate the coaching with this front 4 and set of DBs.

[HJS]

06 doesn’t think that drive is on the D. It’s not the D’Souza fault UVA travelled 65 yards in 4 plays. I mean it is on the offense for not converting 4th and 17.

[Corporal Funishment]

So for the second time this season, coach Haf-time told his team to "have fun" in the halftime speech. For the second time, it seems the other coach's message of "try to win the game" is carrying the day.

Did Hafley tell select players to throw the game to undermine Grosel? Another Grosel win would lead to major second-guessing of the decision to run with Jurk all year. How deep does the rot go here?

Yawn. No one is absolving the defense of being atrocious.

The QB also can't constantly throw the ball away when we are on the verge of scoring to completely change the momentum.

[eepstein0]

I’ll rescind my question on the bowl game. I’m good never seeing this D play again.

Don't forget about the linebackers. No one has got more air time for doing absolutely nothing than Max Richardson.
