CITADEL GAME THREAD

[gofurman]

I have a nightmare of refs from the Samford game from last year. As long as the opposing coach keeps complaining we keep reviewing.

FUBeAR was already in his car heading to S’Burg to whoop some a$$. It was EXACTLY like Samford - 2 reviews. Their HC in the middle of the field ‘directing’ the Officials.

Thank the Gods of the Portal the zebras didn’t FUBAR it this time.

FUBeAR. I hear this. People around me were talking about SAMFORD. I said yep this is scary. SOCON REFS ARE FREAKIN SCARY

Our RB’s need a lot of work pass protecting.

THIS. about got our QB KILLED. The Citadel had. A huge advantage when they blitzed outside (tackle area). HUGE. number 28 got JACKED UP By CCH after missing a block completely

Anyway GREAT WIN N.

GREAT DL wrk to stop the inside runs by Citadel.

Great comeback. CLUTCH PASSING IN COMEBACK WIN

LOTS TO WORK ON as Citadel is probably a 4 win team.
RUNNING GAME IS HORRIFIC. HOREIFIC BLOCKING FOR THAT.

PENALTIES. MAN. can we quit with the gazillion penalties. Especially on third down. (There did appear home cooking BUT SOME PENALTIES ON US WERE CLEAR
ONE TURNOVER

Never in doubt

I never doubted. When it was 13-3 I said we would win 14-13. When it was 16-3 I said we would win 17-16.

Football is a 60 minute game. In a rock fight with your despised rival you play all 60 minutes.

Defense held them to 257 yards.

All our goals are still in front of us. We are undefeated in conference play. Our Paladins grew up a lot today.

As Dabo said: You have to bring your own guts.

28 yards is really not that bad. Happy with the win, keeps hopes alive. Coaches need to realize to have a chance to be successful we have to throw it and throw it a LOT.

Just WIN baby! My father, who is 86, said I don’t care what they do the rest of the season just beat The Citadel! He can tell his Citadel neighbors to go ….. for another year!

Fortunately Citadel missed some scoring opportunities early and let us hang around. In the last 8 mins Citadel seemed like they had no pass defense at all.

We may not be a great team now or even a good team but hopefully finding a way to win will be a stepping stone moving forward. We snatched victory from the jaws of defeat.
