Denver Gameday...

Good job by the defense on that last play but the offense in the last 6 mins was malpractice, you have got to be better there, full stop.
Man up was terrible today. never got a clean look. Joey forced that pass when we could have held it another minute even strength. Probably the most inexcusable play in that stretch
 
Well this team definitely loses this game 2 years ago. 7-2 after this road trip is more than fine.

Thats 100% accurate, the team 2 years ago probably loses to Penn to. This year's team has done a better job in late game situation. Just wish we had one more year of Hiltz or English .
 
Ugly win but a win. N since was close game know terry foy will mention how we fell apart n almost lost it lol. Anyway onto back home n another big game we need vs gtown.
 
we also allowed a 5 goal quarter against a not well thought of offense, so its definitely a mixed bag

Agrees. The caveat being 3 were man up goals in about a 56 sec span but still that cannot happen. That last DU goal should never have happened either, Bowen knows better
 
Denver was 3rd ranked defense according to Massey. Manning had a 70% save percentage in the first half. A lot of meat left on the bone but 13 goals is still a good performance against this team, especially on the road. There are still plenty of the usual criticisms that never get addressed, but for now take the wins and get back to the dome.
 
gotta figure a way to get leo going sunday. he can't have a 0-X shooting day.

Hes out of sorts. Problem is I think hes more comfortable at Mid but Anderson is finally showing life there so they don't wanna keep shuffling him back and forth. I gotta say though this is the 2nd time in 3 games hes looked lost at attack. Its not sustainable

Agreed for the most part, that 4th qtr really spoiled things though. The other problem is as nyclax pointed out these dumb undisciplined sequences are gonna bury this team in a big spot. Your point about the usual criticisms never getting addressed is the main problem i have. Your up 12-7 starting the 4th vs this Denver Offense, you should have coasted or at least won by 3+ goals.
 
SU got a bit lackadaisical after the stellar third quarter and let down, allowing Denver to rebound. There were also some careless penalties and Mullen lost his edge in
the fourth.

When it was 13-11, I was certain Denver would cut it to one goal. And then I felt pretty sure Denver would tie it and send it into OT. We held on. Recent SU teams would have collapsed. So there’s that. I’ll take it.

They wouldn't dare lose on your birthday
 
Fun game. Rhoa shooting that much from outside makes me wonder if the coaches gave him the green light based on something they saw on tape.

Letting teams hang like that is how you get bounced out of tournaments. Our offense needs to meet their potential. We saw it against MD - it was brilliant - and we haven't seen it since. I'll say it every postgame until it resurfaces. It needs to be solved.
