Syracuse/Rutgers Live Blog

Morning all! Just for shits and giggles I'm blogging live today during the game so check back periodically. If you dont get ESPNU, I've got your updates covered!

Hour and 15 to game time...


1st Quarter.:Its wet, 'Cuse can't tackle (surprise) and Rutgers is threatening.

Update.. threatening no more. Teel Threw a sweet pick. No Scarlet Knight around in the end zone. Easy pick. Holding penatly coming up on SU 1st down... whoooppeee....

after the hold.. Pass interference on 'Cuse. Still 1st and 22..... damn near their own goal. Pass to Owen gets them back to the original fucking line of scrimmage. 3rd and 9.

Doug Houge just broke one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gone!!!!!! TD!!!!!

Damn, I could have drove a cement truck through the hole he had to run through. Great call on 3rd and long.

7-zip 'Cuse


Rutgers responds with a 3 and out. SU blocked the punt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 14-0 on a Graham (correction) block!!!!!! Hell theyre scoring faster than I can type!!! Whens the last time we saw a SU punt block for a TD??

14-0 SU rolling..... Rum and coke #1 - GONE

Another 3 and out for Rutgers. Fair catch made by Bruce at about the 10

Scarlet Knight D makes the stop. 3 and out for 'Cuse. Rob Long booted one to the RU 31.

If I see this fucking commercial for these dufus ass die cast trucks I'm going to throw something. Wouldnt be so bad but they take like 3 fucking minutes.

Rum and Coke # 2 - GONE

SU D looks soft this quarter. Rutgers ran the same fuckin play twice in a row for 2 1st downs. Scarlet Knights in FG range

1st and goal Rutgers. Whooooooo.... made this 3rd Rum and Coke kinda stttttrong.

Dammit!!!!!!! TD Rutgers. Teel toss to Underwood. Easy catch. Fuck!!!!!!!!!!

I love when anncouncers cant get a players name right. "Matt Sutter with the runback"

More fun from the announcers. Sales dropped a pass... "couldnt complete the Sale".... Har Dee Har Har. Dantley sacked. SU punting

Rum and Coke # 3 - GONE

Scott went down hard. Looks to be OK

Teel is picking this SU secondary apart. SU D still looks soft. Theyre hitting but not covering

TD Rutgers. Teel put it on the money in the corner of the endzone.

This one announcer has no fucking personality. Remember that Simpsons episode where Bart goes to the Box Factory? The guy who gave the tour is calling this game.

Normally SU waits til the 4th quarter to give a ball game away. Guess they figurd 'why wait?'

Rutgers D holds. Boonah got robbed out of a 1st down. Looked lke he stretched it out and his knee wasnt down. SU punting (again)

Rum and Coke #4 - GONE

Hate to say it but great call by Rutgers on 3rd and long. Same draw play that Hogue scored on earlier. 1st down Rutgers. 40 seconds til halftime.

SU Pick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! chance for a FG at least. Good time to have Shadle.

Dantley ran for the 1st. SU FG att coming.

FG blocked but Time was called first.

Another attempt coming.

What the crap??? another timeout. another miss.

Tied 14 All at halftime. Time to refill on booze.

SU starts at their own 28. 1st half stats heavily favor Rutgers... except the 3 SU take-a-ways.

3 and out for' Cuse. Rutgers is bringing alot of pressure.

I'm going with my frosty cold mug and ice cold beer this half.

Still havent seen DR J throwing ice cubes in glasses yet.

Art Jones broke free and forced a sack!!! Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet.....
2nd and 20 Rutgers

My wife's only comment of the game is that Art Jones has a huge ass.

Oh Rutgers punting...

HUGE run by Boonah for the first time today!! 1st and 10 Cuse on their own 33

Dammit!!!!!!!!!! Pressure came. Dantley coughed it up. Fucking Rutgers ball already in FG range.

Beer #1 - GONE

Son a bitch!!!! Teel pass to Campbell. Rutgers on the 1. Should have been a score IMO. Probably will be in about 1 or two plays. Wait... under review. Should be a score.

Play stands. RU ball on the 1. Young is in. 21-14 Rutgers. SU needs to keep it on the gound next time out.

If that wasnt enough fun to watch heres my favorite 3 minute long Die Cast Truck commercial again.... AGAIN.

Beer #2 - GONE

Son of a bitch another sack. Turns out SU did show up after all. 3rd and forever on their own 10.

Dantley just tossed it 5 yards deep in the sideline. SU punting.

Rutgers at midfield

Youve got to be fucking kidding me. 45 yard run by Rutgers. Direct snap to the Martineck. he hit the corner and was GONE.

So is Beer # 3

SU keeps it on the ground like they should. Gee.... funny its halfway through the 3rd quarter and theyre down by two scores to figure that shit out. 1st down Syracuse.

Rutgers facemask just gave SU another 1st down. I aint complainin

Play action doesnt work again. Dantleys pass way off the mark... again.

While I'm happy that Boonah's getting postitve yards this half he doesn NOT need to be jumping over defenders when he doesnt have to. Remeber those past injuries??

Another sack. Dantley went down akward and is down. NOT GOOD!!!!! Right knee twisted. Hate to see that. For any player. Hope he's OK

Shadle is good. 28-17 Rutgers. Looks like we may see ARob for the first time since NW.

Great return by Rutgers. Scarlet Knights with great field position.... again

End of the third. Rutgers threatening. Lots of work for SU to do to get back in this one.

4th down coming up for Rutgers. Looks like theyre going for it. I'd just kick the FG and be happy with the lead. Its not like SU has posed much of an offensive threat.

Rutgers just paid for going for it on 4th. BIG stop by SU D. 'Cuse takes over on downs. Loss of 3 on first down. ARob in at QB

3 and out again.... Time ticking away.

Beer #4 GONE

If youre wondering ARob threw one pass which was way off and then ran but wound up short of the 1st. RU at their own 35.

Crap. Teel just tossed a 40 yard beauty to Tim Brown (not that one). Rutgers 1st and 10 at the 15

Fuck, before I could even finish typing another Underwood TD grab. We all know SU is NOT a 4th quarter team. This ones fucking over.

ARob pass was batted down by a LB. 2nd and 10 'Cuse on their own 30

Heres the same quote I give my wife every week. I just shake my head and assure her.... "It didn't used to be this way"

Thank God for the 98 Rutgers game clips earlier! How cool was it to see Kevin Johnson, McNabb and Konrad?? Sweeet.....

Worst play Ive seen in a while from ARob. Pocket collapsed. He could have run. Decided to dump it off to Brinkley but threw it ... about 10 feet short on the ground.

ARob complete to Hogue for a few. Still short of the first down. But hey, at least the ball found its target.

Dont hold your breath for an SU comeback. On 4th down ARob sailed a pass way over the intended receiver's head. Ddidnt catch who it was. I was busy throwing a pillow against the front door. Remember... throw it at the front door. It absorbs impact better than other doors in the house.

Oh.. and Rutgers driving. Ball game pretty much over.

Wait.. too little too late but Mike Holmes just recovered a Young fumble. 1st and 10 Syracuse.

And just like that Boonah caught on in the flat, got a few yard then got the hell knocked out of him. Coughed it up too, so Rutgers has it right back. Shit!

Refs reversed the fumble call. SU ball

ARob goes down for another sack. I believe thats 5 on the day for Rutgers. Geeeeeeeeeez..

BEER ME!!

Only thing that could make this worse is another fucking die cast truck commercial.

Greg Schiano looks like Charlie Brown with a gap in his teeth

1st down Rutgers.

Young with another carry. Another fucking Rugers 1st down. I think I just saw the grim reaper standing behind Greg Robinson.

Another Young carry. Another first down

Its over. Minute left... just take a fucking knee

Knee taken. Its over.

BEER ME!!!!!!!
