Colgate at Yale Game Thread

[Pard4Life]

Halftime... Colgate 35, Yale 17... that's like a final score! Yale probably wishes it was over...

...game is on ESPN game tracker.

[Pard4Life]

Yale was up 17-14, but three straight McCarney TDs, two rushing, on long drives, have the Red Raiders up... Yale only has one TO.. an INT.

[bulldog10jw]

see week 5 score thread for the sad details

[Pard4Life]

McCarney, 14-16, 227 yards... McCord 50 yards, McCarney 58 rushing... McC may have 400 yards passing and 100 rushing by the time this is over.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Colgate is going to be a force in the league.

[Pard4Life]

Though defense wins championships, Lafayette has enough anemic offense that it will be offense that wins championships.

[TheValleyRaider]

I've been listening on Colgate's radio broadcast

The offense is doing pretty much whatever they want. Outstanding game from McCarney, good stats from McCord and the recievers, it just does not seem like Yale has any answer

The defense struggled early with Yale's no-huddle, and is still giving up some big plays. But, they held Eli to a FG earlier, then grabbed the pick right at the end of the half to prevent another attempt/possible TD. Yale has benefitted from some huge kick returns to set up shorter fields, but the coverage has been better in the 2nd quarter

Colgate gets the ball to start the 2nd half, so I'd love at least one more score to really put this one away

[Bogus Megapardus]

Is Yale that bad? Maybe Cornell not that good? Colgate much better than anyone thought (SBU is hammering Army right now).

H-Y Game this year will be a laugher, that's for sure.

[bulldog10jw]

Yale is that bad. I think the offense will improve week to week, they are very young.

The defense is just small and slow. Probably the worst Yale D I have ever seen.

[bulldog10jw]

Yale actually got a stop. Hope they don't rough the kicker.

[Pard4Life]

Yale actually got a stop. Hope they don't rough the kicker.

And only a 20 yard punt... knocking on the door already at the C15

[TheValleyRaider]

Shanked punt, Yale has the ball deep in Colgate territory and appears ready to score again

This is why I wanted another score early....

[bulldog10jw]

Yale scores.

Colgate 35 Yale 24

[Pard4Life]

Yale scores.

Colgate 35 Yale 24

10 yrd strike... Williams to Varga... Colgate personal foul on the play ?

[bulldog10jw]

Yale recovers a Colgate brain fart on the kickoff at the Colgate 8. Not sure what happened.

[Pard4Life]

FUUMBLE!!! Yale ball at the 8!

[TheValleyRaider]

10 yrd strike... Williams to Varga... Colgate personal foul on the play ?

Roughing the kicker on the PAT

Ensuing kickoff from the 50 gets loose, Yale gets it back at the Raider 8. This is unravelling quickly

[Pard4Life]

3rd and goal at the 2...

[Pard4Life]

.aaaaand an 8 yrd loss...

[TheValleyRaider]

And Yale shanks the FG attempt

Bullet dodged?

[bulldog10jw]

Yale blows a big chance.

[Pard4Life]

26 yard FG.... MISSSED!

[Pard4Life]

Keggy scores... 20-7 QUackers.

[bulldog10jw]

Yale gets another stop.

[Pard4Life]

Yale ball at the Y39... they made a stop! First one today...

[bulldog10jw]

2nd one. That's two in a row. Might be a season high.

[Pard4Life]

Ouch... I fully expect our game with you to go down to the wire... we can't score on anybody.

[bulldog10jw]

Yale gets a 15 yard illegal block penalty which will probably end this drive. 3rd and 25

[bulldog10jw]

Yale punts. They had their chances to get back in it.

[Pard4Life]

Well Yale gets it all back, but not enough on third... and McCord rips off 9 yards on the first CU play.

[Pard4Life]

McCord keeps moving the ball... now across the 50.

[bulldog10jw]

Colgate pounding the ball now. Smart move.

[Pard4Life]

First downs: C 20, Y 16

[bulldog10jw]

End of the 3rd quarter 35-24 Colgate.

[Pard4Life]

Colgate pounding the ball now. Smart move.

McC just runs for 8 and a first.... C now just short of 200 yards rushing.

[TheValleyRaider]

Colgate 35
Yale 24
End 3rd

Really starting to run the clock down. Still want another score or two

[bulldog10jw]

Colgate with a 3rd and 2, oops, 3rd and 7.

4 down territory though

[bulldog10jw]

Surprised they punted

[Pard4Life]

Well... Eli with another stop... still anybody's game.

[Pard4Life]

BIG play for Varga... now out to the 50... big third here...

[TheValleyRaider]

Big pick for the Raiders! 1st and 10 at the Yale 19!

[Pard4Life]

Oh MAN!! INT C, returned to the 17...

[Pard4Life]

It's Over... 14yard TD McCarney.

[bulldog10jw]

That should end the competitive phase of this game

[TheValleyRaider]

McCarney again! 6 TDs for the 'Gate QB! 4 rushing, 2 passing

And the PAT is blocked. Of course it is...

42-24 Colgate
12:08 4th

[Pard4Life]

That should end the competitive phase of this game

Never fear... XP blocked.

[bulldog10jw]

And the PAT is blocked. Of course it is...

41-24 Colgate
12:08 4th

It's still a 3 score game and pretty much over

[Pard4Life]

47 yrd KR for Yale... a few plays and it's to the C27.

[bulldog10jw]

I do feel better than I did at halftime. No matter what happens the rest of the way, Yale played a pretty good second half. Mistakes, sure. But not bad for a young offense and the D at least looked like they made some adjustments.

[Pard4Life]

QB Williams big gain... Yale in striking distance.

[Pard4Life]

3rd and 7 at C12

[bulldog10jw]

NOOOOOOOO. Not a FG attempt.

[Pard4Life]

fourth.. GO FOR IT!

[bulldog10jw]

SAD

[Pard4Life]

HA!! Are you serious! 29 yrd FG Miss..

[Pard4Life]

SAD

Should not even be kicking FGs down 17 with 8 to play...

[bulldog10jw]

Yale might have the worst kicking game in the Ivy's. The again, Princeton's is pretty bad, too.

[TheValleyRaider]

It's still a 3 score game and pretty much over

That's less a comment about this game, and more about our mediocre special teams in general

[bulldog10jw]

As I said two posts above that one

[Pard4Life]

Yale might have the worst kicking game in the Ivy's. The again, Princeton's is pretty bad, too.

Yeeeah... you may want to watch the PU-Gtown tape...

Meanwhile, McCord chewing up yard, C across the 50 already.. 126 for McCord.

[Pard4Life]

Was that play necessary? Went for it on fourth and 7... at mid-field, now first down at the Yale 8.

[Pard4Life]

TD CU... 8 yard McCord run... 48-24 ...

[Pard4Life]

Well, 47-24... Xp botched, again... I didn't learn from VR.

[bulldog10jw]

TD CU... 8 yard McCord run... 47-24 ...

.

[Pard4Life]

10-3 Brownies in the first Q.

[Pard4Life]

Yale moves to the C12... AND intercepted, less than two to play...

[bulldog10jw]

I think Yale was inside the Colgate 20 yard line 4 times and came away with nothing.

[Pard4Life]

Why are you calling timeout Yale??? It's done!

[bulldog10jw]

To put in some players who rarely play

You mean that they didn't start the game????

There's allllllways Columbia.

[TheValleyRaider]

Colgate 47
Yale 24
Final

Offense slowed in the second half, but both sides of the ball made plays when they needed to. Got 2 weeks to get ready for Holy Cross and PL play

[bulldog10jw]

Congrats to Colgate. Nice win.

[Pard4Life]

Meanwhile, 30-6 Princeton.

[bulldog10jw]

You mean that they didn't start the game????

That's the sad part. xlolx

[Pard4Life]

Solid Gate win... both teams will give the Pards a run.

[bulldog10jw]

There's allllllways Columbia.

That might be Yale's only other shot this year, although we always play well against Princeton.

[bulldog10jw]

Looking at the stats.....only one penalty the whole game? Is this where the replacement refs went?

In short... yes... they came from leagues such as ours.

[bulldog10jw]

I though they came from the lingerie league

[Pard4Life]

Yes, and D2! Yale may want to play a few lingerie league games before facing Harvard... or dare I not even bring that up?

[bulldog10jw]

I'm hoping to hold them under 50

[Pard4Life]

I'm hoping to hold them under 50

Holy Cross couldn't even do that...

[bulldog10jw]

Holy Cross couldn't even do that...

I'm hoping we improve enough by then to have a shot at holding them to 49

[Bogus Megapardus]

In short... yes... they came from leagues such as ours.

The CIP (Colonial/Ivy/Patriot) officials are under contract. None was available for NFL replacement ref duties. Same will all other current DI officials.


I though they came from the lingerie league

Actually, some of the replacement refs had been dismissed from the lingerie league for performance reasons.

Ah... thought only FBS referees were standing with the union.
