GDT: UNI @ Hawaii

[clenz]

Tied at 7 with 6:38 left.

Hawaii scored on a snap that looked like the Broncos first snap in the Super Bowl.

http://www.themw.com/#!/watch-live#5915

These announces are very very very bad so be aware

[clenz]

The announces are shocked that not all UNI players at 5'5 150 lbs and aren't slow.

Multiple references to UNI being in Cedar Rapids.

Calling Iowa state with bad HS football, even though per capita we have a damn good contingent of NFL players from the state.

[clenz]

Hawaii is much faster than I thought they would be.

Game started badly for UNI as you could tell the 11PM local time kick off and travel was affecting focus. The team seems to be settling in though

Holy ****...they just said that UNI was in Grand Rapids.

[clenz]

First Brion Carnes sighting of the season on a read option.

The announcer said "Based on play call and his looks he is WAAAAAAAAAY more athletic that Kollmorgen"

Seems racist, no?

Their D is Lehigh small though. They have a big guy at NG but everyone else looks undersized. Their LB's blend in with their DB's....

Agreed, but the swarm like crazy. I've not seen a team swarm quite this well in a while.

[bonarae]

Both offenses using the running game... Not much passing present right now.

I was about to say the same thing, they can close quickly....I can see why they would give a team like UW, who plays in space, trouble.....

[clenz]

Hawaii's offense is all Lakalaka off of a read option look.

[clenz]

So far Hawaii's passing game is bad....so far.


Knocking on every piece of wood I can find.

I can't believe you east coast guys are watching this game late. Seems like it will be a good one.

[clenz]

Hawaii forced to punt and it's shanked, just 20 yards....Hawaii punter can kick with either foot. I've not seen that before.

UNI takes over 1:08 left int he first at their own 40

LAKA LAKA.....gotta love the Hawaii names. I keep thinking the Muppets are on.

It's my team and I'm struggling right now. By the end of the game I'll be lucky to make it bed. I'll end up asleep in the kitchen chair I'm in with my head on the lap top.

UNI's TE Lehman drops a pass and isn't getting up. In a lot of pain

If I hear him say he lika lika's Lakalaka again, I may mail him anthrax.

Haven't completed a pass yet.

Might have just been a wind knocked out situation?

Boarderline roughing the passer not called on that pass.

The first thing I thought of when I heard that was that Lakalaka would be Fozzie's catchphrase if he had a stroke.

[centennial]

Cheap shot..

I gotta turn on the poll before I go to bed, haha. Debating whether to wait for the end of this game or not, the struggle is real.

Halftime of this game, it should be on.

[superman7515]

At least the game is going quickly. From 8 seconds left in the 1st quarter to 8 minutes left in the 3rd quarter in the blink of an eye.

[clenz]

7-7 after 1

Better than mine. I was leaning toward being trapped in a Pac Man game.


I was also shocked to find out we are allowed to give 65 scholarships. Quick, get your coaches on the phone!

Of course...as soon as I say that they hit a 50 yard bomb.

Where are you watching? My feed from the Mountain West page is obviously several minutes behind yours.

[clenz]

I still like the UNI defense.


If the offense can get it clicking UNI pulls away in this thing. That is much easier said than done right now.

You need to refresh it every once in awhile. Especially during "commercial" breaks. Even with that, live stats are about two plays ahead.

[superman7515]

http://www.themw.com/#!/watch-live#5915

Yeah, that's the stream I'm watching, but bonarae posted the field goal probably 3 minutes before it happened on my stream.

[clenz]

Dorleant lights the Hawaii RB up...but isn't getting up.D

Damn. He's good.

Also, his name isn't pronounced like a frenchman like they are saying.

It's like it looks.

Hit looked to be in the shoulder area...broken collarbone?

[clenz]

No push from the UNI OL up front.

UNI needs to run some quick slants/screens to get some room somewhere.


UNI too far out to kick a FG. Punt time, yet again

[clenz]

god dammit...another just freaking prayer bomb pass thrown and caught

[centennial]

Seems like Hawaii might score again.

[clenz]

mother *************************

[superman7515]

Nice pass for the 15-yard TD

[bonarae]

Getting uglier.

Hawaii 17-7 6:37 2Q

[clenz]

UNI's offensive coordinator needs to get his head out of his ass right freaking now and figure something out

[centennial]

UNI is making Brock Jensen look stupid for picking you guys on gameday.

[superman7515]

Nice return, UNI right back into Hawaii territory.

[clenz]

Big return to Hawaii territory.

I hope our OC gets his head out of his ass and starts calling something other than pee wee football plays


Predictable as ****

[centennial]

Sacked!

[clenz]

Dear god...someone fire ****ing Salmon right ****ing now

[superman7515]

Sack for Hawaii, pushes UNI to the other side of midfield.

[clenz]

I can't ****ing stand a year of watching this OC ruin yet another talent loaded team.

This is just freaking stupid

[BisonFan02]

This is what I get for picking UNI to win a "big" game....should really know better by now.

Just stupid

I swear to god if our play calling isn't better on this drive I'm taking an ambien and going to bed.

[clenz]

Carnes comes in at QB and using a lot of option looks and QB draw looks right now.

Not a bad move

- - - Updated - - -

We can stop running freaking draws from the shot gun right about now...holy damn

[superman7515]

So is Carnes basically unable to pass? If they start stacking the box everytime he's in there, they could be in trouble.

He's not real great...but not terrible..

Drop UNI from your top 25.

I still think you guys win this one..

[superman7515]

Wouldn't surprise me, Hawai'i hasn't looked impressive at all. Other than chuck-n-duck, the Warriors don't seem to have much going for them. Then again, they have 8 of 22 starters out with injuries before the game even started.

[clenz]

And the patented UNI prevent defense late in any half allowing for any pass anywhere on the field is back.

One of these times I'm going to follow through with my threat to go to bed.

[superman7515]

Hawai'i had a man wide open with nothing but air and opportunity in front of him, but just overthrown.

[superman7515]

He can say all these weird ass Hawai'ian names, but can't pronounce Zach without stuttering...

[centennial]

Lot of long balls thrown by Hawaii

[clenz]

I was initially excited about this game, but as it got closer I started to like it less and less.

1. 11 PM local kick off. I don't care that the team went out Wednesday. It's a 4000 mile trip and a 4 hour time difference. You need at least a week to get over that.

2. A second straight loss to start the season could really hurt the teams psyche.

3. I hate our OC. Have I said that yet?

[bonarae]

FG salvaged by UNI to end the 1st half.

Halftime: Hawaii 17-10.

[superman7515]

UNI field goal to cut the lead to 7 at the half.

[centennial]

Only behind by 7..

[clenz]

Seriously, fire Bill Salmon right freaking now.

Get someone that knows what the hell they are doing for the second half.

[superman7515]

The poll is open, I put a link to the UNI @ Hawaii box score in the How They Fared thread so that hopefully folks will click that after the game is over and see the final score if they get up to vote before I get up to put the final score in. Best of luck Clenz.

[clenz]

shocking.

UNI opens the second half with an I Form counter...

Never saw that play before.

Followed it up with a shot gun draw.

Hey, stop me if you've heard these plays before.

- - - Updated - - -

Shockingly followed up with a pass 20-25 yards down field...

Dear god.

[clenz]

Hey...watch this next series.

I bet the first play the team comes out in a single back I form, wing a wing TE.

Probably runs a zone stretch to the wide side of the field looking for a cut back...

Anyone want to take that bet?

[clenz]

Called that **** to a T.

[citdog]

What's the score Lenzy?

[clenz]

17-10 Hawaii

5:50 left in the third

[thebootfitter]

They might set a record for total number of punts in a football game here...

[clenz]

I've correctly predicted about 80% of UNI's plays since the start of the second quarter.


Seriously, this is just ****ing stupid.

[thebootfitter]

Ooh, ouch. A big run by Lakalaka for a TD.

24-10. With the lack of fire and momentum on the UNI side, that may be enough to put it away. Let's see if they can rally for a score or two and get back in it...

[clenz]

I promise you that UNI runs a dive with 2 sideline passes on this drive.

****ing bank it.

[clenz]

Well...starts out with a dip **** sideline pass (2 actually) but Lemaster pulls in 2 circus catches

[thebootfitter]

There's some momentum to end the third quarter. I hate cheering for UNI, but c'mon, Panthers! Keep that going!

[clenz]

and ****ing lemaster looks to have blown his knee out again.

I need a full bottle of jager to chug

[clenz]

SOMEONE STOPPED SALMON FROM CALLING PLAYS!

WE HAD AN OFFENSE THERE!

HOLY ****!

[clenz]

i should add since I've been blasting him all over here, AGS, twitter and facebook tonight, I think Salmon is a great guy and I've enjoyed any conversation I've had with him. I just think he's terrible at calling plays

[clenz]

UNI shockingly goes dive sideline pass sideline pass to go three and out.

[thebootfitter]

I thought you were going to bed, clenz?

I missed that last drive, but it looks like they found some life. Can they do it again here?

[clenz]

No, what happened was someone kidnapped our OC and didn't let him call the plays.


He's back now and we've gone back to dive, sideline pass, draw, sideline pass, dive, sidline pass, sideline pass

[clenz]

I really want to find a way to blame that muffed punt on Salmon....I really do

[clenz]

**** this... I'm out for real this time.


Christ almighty that offense is embarrassing to watch

[thebootfitter]

It would be nice to spin it and just say it was a hard-fought defensive battle. But, yeah... no.

At least they were never completely out of it on the scoreboard, but I really did think UNI had the horses to get 'er done.

[MTfan4life]

The FCS record for most combined punts in a game is 26. This game has had 24.

The single team record is 16, and UNI has 13.

[thebootfitter]

Whoa! Clenz, are you still there? They're driving and knocking again.

[thebootfitter]

Kollmorgen to Miller for a TD! With a successful onsides kick, this still has the potential to be interesting.

[thebootfitter]

I had a feeling they had to be close to a record. At this point in the game, I highly doubt they'll break it though.

[bonarae]

Wait, UNI scored.

Hawaii 27-24 1:56 left in the game...

[thebootfitter]

So much for the successful onsides kick, though. It will take a miracle now.

(Where's Miracle Max when you need him?)

[thebootfitter]

And 27-24 is the final. Even if ugly on the field, they kept it close on the scoreboard and stats.

[UNIFanSince1983]

That was brutal. You can see glimpses of a decent team. Mistakes killed us again, and the offense has become so predictable. Looks as though the o-line has a long way to go. Finally, can't tell if Kollmorgen has regressed this much or just was under too much pressure tonight. He hasn't been good completion percentage wise all season. Not sure if we should be ranked at all right now. Have to prove we can win a game, and maybe have some offense.

[JayJ79]

the UNI loss sucked.
but judging from the reactions of some UNI "fans", you'd think they pulled a SHSU performance or something.

[clenz]

Ah "fans"
