Play of the game

[721Comstock]

Also right there is the scramble Shrader had where he zig zagged backwards a couple times, looking like he was going to lose a mile's worth of yardage only to get downfield and eiher pick up a first or get close to one (I can't remember which). Louisville wasn't out of it yet and a big sack for them there may shift some momentum.

Yeah, that was a no-No-NO-YES!!!! play on his part.

It didn’t seem like there was any way to turn that into a positive play, and I was just praying he’d get rid of the ball before the (seemingly inevitable) sack came.

GS is a BALLER.

They will be showing that highlight when Williams gets drafted.

My son and I were like, “What is Shrader doing?” We were both in awe as he turned up the left side of the sideline. That was also amazing.

That whole time I didn’t even get excited because the way the night was going I was sure the refs were going to throw a flag - I couldn’t believe that not only did he pull it off, but the refs actually let it happen!

There were a few moments that were key. Garrets crazy int….the goal line stand….Tucker and Shrader both with plays multiple times getting the team out from inside the 5 yard line….

 

[OrangeMojo]

Biggest play of the game for me: first offensive play of the second half, when I saw that Tucker was back in the game and he bulldozed his way up the middle for 10 yards and a first down.

The amount of relief I felt after that play was incredible.

lol that one and the one he had at Louisville 2 years ago. The clemson pick 6 is one of my favorites too

 

[money3189]

GW funneled back and under cut the backside post. That was remarkable. Most CB's would have squated as soon as the near side receiver broke in for the deep cross.

 

[ForCuseSake]

I enjoyed Courtney Jackson’s 23 yard catch & run on 2 & 25.

Cards left him alone and he made the most of it.

 

[Red Holzman]

Schrader bulldozing 2 defenders was my play of the game.
Defined what we were witnessing -loved it!

 

[shu 49]

He said he wanted to make more plays and get more INT’s this season.

That’s a pretty, pretty good start.

If u rewatch, it wasn’t even his guy. He made an insane recovery.

Other game changing plays:

1. 12 min left in 2nd quarter, down 10-7. 3rd and 13. Garrett makes an incredible run to get the first down.

2. 5 min left in 2nd quarter, we stuff Louisville on 4th and goal. They ran that beautiful WR pass play and got zero points out of that drive.

3. Our interception late third quarter and long run back that totally took the wind out of Louisville's sails.

How about a shout out to the sharp shooter here. Nice job Garrett and Dennis! What a brilliant picture.

One man gathers what another man spills:

I want to know why there was no penalty called for the exposed knees on this receiver. Where are the refs from that Tennessee game ??? I said this live during the game. Throw the flag, ref!

Not a game changer, but Gadsden had a sliding catch that was really impressive. Might have been Shrader's worst ball of the day but he made it work.

 

[IthacaMatt]

A lot of athleticism. But did anyone else feel Cunningham blew the play as in that he had the guy wide open and waited a split second too long to throw it. But even so it took a beast move to INT. As the play developed, I was hoping for a deflection. Never in a million plays, would I have thought he could have gotten there to intercept the ball.

Yeah, I was scared to death on that play, because the WR was running free about 10 yards behind his original defender. Garrett flew in there like Batman to make the play. Holy cow!

 

[Cusefan69]

One other play...first Louisville drive 2nd down I believe. Cunningham took the shotgun snap and faked handoff and looked like he wanted to bootleg right and our DE stayed put and stopped him dead from getting outside and forced Cunningham into the line of scrimmage. There was NO ONE beyond that DE as the defense had flowed left on the fake. Huge contain play.

If I was emperor of football, I would ban gloves.

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

That was THE play tonight.

But…. Where was the safety?

It was a great play. GW needs to be more consistent if he wants to be considered great.

G. Williams was a safety there.

Yes, and he actually made the right read on the zone concept and didn’t take himself out of the play when his area emptied … he went and found the receiver. Love it!

 

[cuse62]

I think his interception was the play of the game; but when I coached, his hustle play to catch their wide receiver on gadget play was awesome. What a teaching moment. That hustle play and goal line stand, gave up 0 points.

 

[Chris02M]

I think the goal line stand was the turning point of the game as our offense was in penalty/stall mode and Louisville missed there opportunity

One minor quibble I had with yesterday that I don’t think will ever get fixed under Dino, but punting before that drive drove me nuts. He’s still chicken and it’s going to cost us eventually. Louisville got the ball in the exact same spot in one play. Same story as ever.

punting was the right play in that moment 99% all college coaches would make the same call when your up 2 scores especially

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Dino sounded like that was something that was worked on
