Game Thread: OFFICIAL GAME THREAD - Bama v. The Citadel - 1st Half...

[JBama_in_PCOLA]

Cut blocks should be outlawed.

 

[uafan4life]

Nah it should have been flagged. It was well after the runner was already down. Cheap shot, late hit

It was close but not blatantly late. Hits like that are very rarely flagged. That's why coaches tell you - when pursuing a play - to keep your head on a swivel.

Unusual bad throw...

 

[TUSCALOOSAHONOR]

Yeah was a late hit with illegal cut blocks thrown in.

 

[rgw]

We have a tell for when we're running. The only way to explain have the backers being at the LOS at the handoff.

 

[Nolan]

Nope, not even close - watch it again.

He was behind QW and lunged to have his helmet at the side of the shoulder pads.

And totally unnecessary. But the refs just let it happen.

OK Offense needs to get it together.

Play calling is trash so far, and the offensive blocking sucks.

Way to play down to the competition.

 

[RammerJammer14]

Dude why are we letting the Citadel hang around. We are gonna give up a shutout today I think

We've had the ball twice all half and one of the times we punted because we had a bad series.

 

[TUSCALOOSAHONOR]

Middle of the field at the first down line open. But we are looking deep.

 

[russtang]

Right side of Oline having a bad day so far.

 

[uafan4life]

Our offense game-plan so far:
1. Run on first down.
2. Run on second down.
3. Pass on third down.

Not exactly what I'd call creative play-calling.

 

[kyallie]

We need to find a rhythm.

I’d be fine with us not attempting a rushing play the rest of the game.

17-3 Maryland over OSU.

As is usually the case in these games, I expect the refs to “let them play” to keep the clock running and keep the flow going. So I don’t really expect anything to get flagged.

We threw on incompletion on 1st...

Sitting here in BDS. Two things- 1)Crowd (at least the ones who showed up) is completely lifeless. 2)Playcalling is suspect for the 2nd week in a row.
