We win by 11, and are up 4-9 or so points most of the 2nd half and you’d have thought we played terribly. Yep it was an ugly physical poorly called game, in fact both games were but we won and won today by a lot more than the spread. While I agree with everything you say what makes me nervous is that the Bills looked terrible against the pressure SFA was applying. That isn’t going to work when they play more talented teams. Im glad they got the win but I would have like to have seen a lot more poise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old guy Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 My turn. Second half was not like the first half, they just could not make FGs. Bad news. Very physical, very dirty game with lots of uncalled contact, very poor refs, a drought on FGs and we won the game. Not only did we win but we went close to twice the Vegas line. We won this game on defense and FTAs made. Amazing, a year ago who could have suspected that we would win a game with over 80% Field Goals made. Great effort, some people were off, but still great effort, great win. Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Compton Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Bills first Q3 win this season. 5-1 in DI games halfway through the DI non-conference schedule, with the only loss to a Top 10 team. Great start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was pushing himself beyond his limit and started getting symptomatic once more. This is not good, Fred cannot do this and expect to play a full season, not with the kind of disorder he has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach said on the post-game interview with Rammer & Earl that Thatch was dehydrated, and that that was the reason they couldn't play him as much as they would have liked to down the stretch. dlarry likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That isn’t going to work when they play more talented teams. Im glad they got the win but I would have like to have seen a lot more poise. I somewhat agree with the caveat that is pretty tough to stay composed when the game is allowed to be that physical. They were called for 24 fouls which was about 10-12 lite. Yuri had 6 turnovers but he was getting beat up pretty good. He also got doubled a couple of times and everyone just stood and watched. He lost quite a few assists also, 2 I can remember near the end where Linnsen got fouled and got to the line. He ended up with 11 points. If you get fouled and get to the line and make 2, you don’t get credit for a fg but you get the same 2 points. He was 7 of 8 from the line. While I agree it wasn’t a good game, it wasn’t as bad as its being made out to be. Jones was not pressured when running the point the same as Yuri was. And speaking of Jones, what a pass to end the half Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NH Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 The negativity in these threads is crazy to me. We just won two neutral site games against real opponents. Don’t get me wrong, there are many areas we can improve on. But I’m ecstatic to be 6-1 right now. We lost our best player and have responded in a really positive manner. Roll bills. slufanskip, brianstl, Littlebill and 4 others like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
