Week 8: The University of Virginia

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

Surprisingly strong stop on 3rd and medium. What crazy play will UVA use on this 4th down?

 

[dkst0426]

Tennessee beat South Carolina, too.

Are their WRs that much bigger than our guys that our DBs are playing with such loose coverage to keep the receivers in front of them?

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

Boone looks really bad today? Like Connette bad with the arm.

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

One of the worst punt returns of all time will lead to a 98-yard TD by UVA.

 

[physicsfactor]

Damn. We should have let that guy continue to retreat for a safety.

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

Fumble by UVA bounces right back into the falling UVA player's arms.

It's just not Duke's day. Win probability is like 5%, realistically.

 

[dkst0426]

And naturally, they recover their own fumble, and for a first down, to boot.

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

lol Duke penalty on an INT. UVA first down instead of Duke's ball.

 

[physicsfactor]

What a horseshit call on the flop that negates Duke's INT

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

So now it's not a question of whether Duke will win (they won't), it's a question of how many huge breaks UVA needs to go its way before going up by 2 possessions.

 

[dkst0426]

That was Ronaldo-esque on the "holding".

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

How pathetic are you if you've recovered your own fumble while the guy was falling to the ground, gotten a 4th and long fake punt conversion, had an INT negated due to ticky tack penalty, and had the opposing QB throw like Brandon Connette, and you're only up 7? This is a terrible team Duke will lose to.

 

[physicsfactor]

Terrible defense. If you can't get to the QB with 5 or 6, just drop 8.

 

[physicsfactor]

Hey, we got to the QB!

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

With the way things were going for Duke, I honestly believed the refs weren't going to call that intentional grounding where the UVA QB threw the ball straight into the grass, 20 yards from the nearest receiver.

 

[dkst0426]

Thought that flag would be roughing the passer call on the grounding.

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

Fuck that, obvious touchback. Don't even think about it.

 

[dkst0426]

Ref wanted to call that down at the 1, didn't he?

 

[physicsfactor]

Last possession for Boone to prove we shouldn't go with Connette

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

If Boone morphs into a decent QB again, Duke can win. Why is he this bad? This is Blaine Gabbert stuff.
