WF/BC games are always wacky...but it's great to see us fired up and throwing downfield. We need some work tonight on toughness and execution. Wake is not Villanova...but ain't fumble recoveries sweet?
Is it my optimistic vision for greater & loftier days in our future, or do our cheerleaders look like they all transferred to BC from FSU? However, Chase Rettig's play tonight is no illusion, that's for sure.He's throwin' shots. (We've got a 105 degree heat wave going on here today so I'm just doing a few hallucination checks to validate what I'm seeing in HD...)
I am loving the aggressiveness on first and second down on both the offense and defense. They get conservative on third though. As for the cheerleaders, I had the exact opposite thought haha.
Is all this offensive signal chaos and sputtering from Wake before the snap making anyone crazy... Andre finally gets a block from the O line and gets some yards.
If Spaz is shaking his head we would all hear the ballbearings rattling. We just stopped Wake at the goal!! Well,thjat's something to make us Believe in BC again...Wow. Go Eagles!
Pretty cool to have a coach willing to put on the line, take responsibility, and give some awesome half time comments. Who wouldn't want to play for him. Intense and fun.
It's so refreshing to hear the BC Head Coach be positive, talk with a tone that's affirming about the kids, applaud the goal line stand and take the hit as a coach for calling a play that didn't work...It's the complete reverse of every Spaz comment ever made. It's badly needed Oxygen.
I'm not liking this designed roll out for Rettig. He's not fast enough and our line isn't good enough for it to work. I don't think Rettig has completed a pass yet on these roll outs.
The Eagle Walk thing, the vibe of the team, the whole Addazio gung ho approach is just a great energy for this team that was deep in the dark last year. It's Light and Respectful and traditional stuff. Love it love it love it. The big tests are coming but this is a great start.
Team is much improved. Coach gives a damn. Defense played great. Offense needs some work, and we are very thin in terms of talent, but I like where we are headed.
This is a biggie to set the tone for the season...we need it. Let's go Eagles!
ReplyDeleteGreat start. Great block by Spiffy on the TD.
ReplyDeleteIt seems like we have a better feel for this style of offense. Maybe Nova (with their spread option) was a good team to start the season.
ReplyDeleteWell we are back to running up the middle on third down and short on offense and allowing huge 3rd and long conversions on defense.
ReplyDeleteThat wasn't as good. Need to do a better job on 3rd downs. But that was also just a nice throw and catch on their TD. Hard to stop that.
ReplyDeleteThey completed a long 3rd down to start the drive too.
ReplyDeleteLiked the aggressive down field throws. The Wolford drop was a killer.

ReplyDeleteLike Chase's decisiveness so far. He is looking for big plays.

ReplyDeleteA little too cute with the fleaflicker.
ReplyDeleteGreat play call, terrible throw
ReplyDeleteAmidon was wide open. Just severely underthrown.
ReplyDeleteGreat sack for the big fella!
ReplyDeleteI love watching Al Washington get excited on the sidelines.
ReplyDeleteIs all this offensive signal chaos and sputtering from Wake before the snap making anyone crazy... Andre finally gets a block from the O line and gets some yards.
ReplyDeleteJesus, the BC line is just falling apart.
ReplyDeleteFucking line
ReplyDeleteSomewhere Spaz is shaking his head thinking they should've taken a knee.
ReplyDeleteWow--what an amazing clusterbleep that was...a blocked punt? Special team's falling asleep at the wheel bigtime.
ReplyDeleteIf Spaz is shaking his head we would all hear the ballbearings rattling. We just stopped Wake at the goal!!
ReplyDeleteWell,thjat's something to make us Believe in BC again...Wow. Go Eagles!
The fans who stayed away from this game suck.
ReplyDeleteHuge goal line stand! This defense looks so much better.
ReplyDeleteWow, it's so refreshing to hear Daz compared to Spaz. He took responsibility instead of blaming his players too.
ReplyDeleteWow. That was a crazy half.
ReplyDeleteMore than happy to be up by 10 - Obviously
Who are we??? The fifty faces of BC - some great, some putrid . It's college football!!
Wake's #50 Whitlock is a Pre-season All-American
ReplyDeleteHint to Special teams:block #50.
Got it?

ReplyDeleteWe should be up by more. Left a lot of points on the field. Now we need to improve in the second half.
ReplyDeleteI'm not liking this designed roll out for Rettig. He's not fast enough and our line isn't good enough for it to work. I don't think Rettig has completed a pass yet on these roll outs.
ReplyDeleteOffense sputtering...we need to throw a wrinkle in there...reverse to Spiffy?
ReplyDeleteAgree with unknown
ReplyDeleteDoes Ryan Day have any creativity?
Has Spaz decided to take over the offense now? Good Lord.

ReplyDeleteDoes Rettig look tentative, almost shaky--lost that ballsy, let it rip attitude ever since the long bomb pick?
ReplyDeleteHe really hasn't had the chance to pass much since the pick. It's been basically all runs this half with a few roll outs.
ReplyDeleteAndre is working it!!
ReplyDeleteOk, forget the reverse, let's just run it down their throats! Is Patchan ok?? We need him
ReplyDeleteI guess with Andre and OL (yes! Can you believe it??) manhandling WF, no creativity is needed.
ReplyDeleteA great smash-mouth drive!
Can the defense hold?
ReplyDeletePatchan is sitting on the bench looking unhappy.
ReplyDeleteHelp. I am thinking like Spaz.
ReplyDeleteRun out clock
Need the defense to hold here.
ReplyDeleteBTW, the defense has been much better so far tonight.
ReplyDeleteOur deep covers are not hanging tough down field. Its a problem that a USC will exploit all night...
ReplyDeleteLet's go D! Stop them again here!
ReplyDeleteI admire Grobe and think he's a great coach, but he looks like he is asleep tonight.
ReplyDeleteUSC hee hee
ReplyDeleteJack:
ReplyDeleteFYI, Patchan has a hip injury.
Yes Grobe seems off
ReplyDeleteCampanero is a dangerous guy. He's all they got.
ReplyDeleteHow did we not tackle him behind the line on that one?
ReplyDeleteTHE D LINE HAS BEEN REMARKABLE.
ReplyDeleteI am about to lose power but all hats off to our BC team
ReplyDeleteAgain fans who did not show suck
ReplyDeleteFans leaving early unbelievable

ReplyDeleteChase has been limping for a while now. Let's hope it is not serious.
ReplyDeleteTick tick tick .......
ReplyDeleteChase seemed quasi gimpy last year too.
ReplyDeleteThis is agony now.
Tick tick tick
Edebali is really coming into his own. Covering a lot of ground.
ReplyDeleteDaniels blows
ReplyDeleteEdibali has that relentless predator pursuit that we haven't seen since the pros took WonderBoy...
ReplyDeleteTanner Price sulks like Jimmy Clausen
ReplyDeleteWow, just noticed that Rettig has completed only 7 passes for only 123 yards. Could have sworn it was more.
ReplyDeleteGreat night for Williams. Making good decisions and running well.
ReplyDeleteRettig is hurting...
ReplyDeleteGet Williams out of the game
ReplyDeleteNot perfect, but another solid effort.
