[chuckie1980]

So 6 minutes late and I miss the first TD by the REDBIRDS.

So is CHAT being used for this game...? Have no clue how to check it out. Yeah, I know. I should be there.

RIDGEWAY!!!

soooo .... didn't get to watch until now. Apparently Robinson looking or doing better today.

 

[fourthandshort]

so otherwise nice return by Uphoff again ends with a fumble, then a late hit penalty after a missed sack opportunity. so we're handling this team, but once again field position, turnover, and penalty .. results in fairly easy TD. And YSU is right back in game.

YSU starting field position has been very good all game. Defense was holding up, but eventually get a TD as a result of losing field position battle.

 

[fourthandshort]

we've outgained them 180 to 90 .. and score is 14-13 ... field position is difference again.

 

[fourthandshort]

Kirk another pick !!!

 

[fourthandshort]

we've had 3 near picks before finally getting that pick.

 

[fourthandshort]

so total yards at half is 196 to 106, yet score is 14-13 and we kick off to them.

This is same YSU team that man handled UNI 31-10 last week .. total yards was 400 to 190. Same YSU that played NDSU tough 17-7 .. score was tied going into Q4 in Fargo. Same UNI that got manhandled by ISUb 43-17 .. we lost to ISUb but outgained them 488 to 283 ..... I can't figure any of this out.

MVFC could have 4 teams finish 6-5 .. and we'll be lucky to get 3 teams in playoffs.

Just seems like the team is missing some spark, just off. This year could have been really successful. Today is typical, only up 1 feels like it should be more.

 

[fourthandshort]

see .. I told you all Robinson as hurting !!!!

:roll: :?

 

[fourthandshort]

we've outgained them 180 to 90 .. and score is 14-13 ... field position is difference again.

starting watching game late ... it looks like we had couple nice starting field positions early on ... so call it even today so far.

 

[fourthandshort]

yeesh .. passing clinic today ... both teams are 6 for 18 in passing

 

[fourthandshort]

Markel Smith has only played KR today ... FR Brown getting #2 reps at RB so far. Smith obviously back in dog house ? Or banged up ?

 

[crazzymark]

hope Mr Robinson returns next year....the kid from east st louis looked good. Hatfield has a good head on his shoulders... hope that was wasn't Mr Smith's last game. during the TV feed, they called Jame "Mr Robinson"...loved it

Could have folded the tent after YSU scores twice. But came back and won on a day where you needed to run the ball. Offense line was really good and of course Mr Robinson was a ton. Browns speed is a good change of pace. Not what we wanted this year but with the majority of our starters back the future looks good!

 

[normalbird]

#20 Brown really quick. Outran everybody on his 2 TD’s. What happened to #11 Schnell—never played in 2nd half?Also #21 Smith KR only, never in from scrimmage. Back story? #4 Davis has to get better.

Rinse, repeat, rinse repeat.

Robinson really is special. ISU run game looked so dominant at times this year included this game. Surprising how UNI, SDSU and Indy State held him to 140 yards over 3 games.

Smith must be in the doghouse as suggested by some. He is talented too but seems to be a rebel aeven with his teammates.

 

[Brick]

Schnell got hurt on last play of first half and never returned

 

[fourthandshort]

Robinson got hurt as well with 12 mins to go, though may no t have been serious .. Schnell's looked more serious just based on how they each left field.

By the way, with 12 mins to go and 7 point lead, Robinson had 256 yard . if not for the injury, he would very likely have surpassed 300 rush yards today .. wonder what ISU record is ??
