UConn postgame

[pokercuse08]

If the play clock is running, the game clock is running. Unless you're coming off an OOB run or an incomplete pass. Then, what possible difference does it make?

The amount of time left is irrelevant to whether the play works or not. The only issue is if you leave yourself enough time to run all the plays available to you. So with a timeout left how is :30 not enough for two plays? A play near the goal line takes ~5-7 seconds, and you only need :01 on the game clock when the ball is snapped for the second play. So you have :22 to get a play in and get lined up again, or you can take your timeout if you're concerned.

Mmm my see

This is a popular opinion, but I think people are misunderstanding. Nobody is saying you waste a play trying not to score. You simply want to leave yourself enough time to run your three plays, and not much more.

Yasin scored with :48 left. Had he failed to get in, they had two more tries and one timeout. Had they run the play clock down the extra :24 they safely could have to :05, the play would have ended at :24 on the game clock. That's plenty of time to run two plays with one timeout. You could argue to snap it at 10-12 on the play clock and leave a full :30 after the play, but they definitely left more meat on the bone than they should have.

As a result UConn managed to get their win percentage back to 50-50 when it never should have gotten back above 5-10%.

Dee Brown says score when you can, because you never know what might happen.

Am I supposed to be ecstatic that we barely beat Connecticut in overtime?

Yes

 

[Surfan06001]

How are sprints post game disrespectful?

The message is that we beat you, but we should
Have beat you by way more because we’re Syracuse and you’re UConn.

It’s disrespect. But also, as I said before, is it wrong?

 

[OrangeCrush22]

Not for nothing, after the interception, last two drives were 90 and 80 yards.

Still cannot believe the turnaround.

I’m really hoping something clicked there with the offense and going forward we are formidable

The sprints weren’t a result of the score.
It was about FB seeing players not playing with enough intensity.

Maybe UConn needs to get over themselves.

Up tempo seemed to help a lot.

I’m kind of fuzzy from earlier. Did Antonine make 2 pbu’s late in game or 1?

 

[ADKDave]

He saw Miracle. Herb Brooks move.

Again, Again, Again …

Takeaway: Collins better stay ready because this O line is going to get injured. Just abysmal blitz pick up.

Fran must have talked to Mike Messere.

If anyone thinks it's disrespectful get a thicker skin or kick rocks. Fran's first and foremost worry should be to his teams focus and effort among other things. They played like azz today win or lose. Great way to get their attention and it sends a better message than making them run if they lost, or in practice on Monday. It just doesn't have the same impact days later. Good for Coach.

ok so flip it. you'd be cool if it happened to us ? like there wouldn't be 100 posts about disrespect ?

You have the best breakdowns on the board. Everything from statistics and articles is extremely well organized

But no one but SU fans know that context. Most people just see the game and the sprints.

But anyway I don’t disagree. If UConn doesn’t like it, they should have won. God knows they had opportunities to do so.

They can go kick rocks

 

[Cuse On 3]

Unbelievable you’d be mad at another team for getting disciplined. What do you care?

Some of their fans. We have no idea if the players feel that way.

 

[Surfan06001]

These terms are acceptable

 

[Shrmdougluvr]

Fran having the players run post-game sprints is the #2 story on ESPN.com right now.

I think that was likely the point.
