[Dane96]

[igo4uni]

Ok, I am tuned in to the Drake vs. San Diego game right now.

[GOTOREROS]

Drake forced to punt for third straight time - 1st and 10 USD on the Drake 41...

[igo4uni]

Anyone know about crowd size?

No idea.

[GOTOREROS]

Drake blocks 36 yard FG attempt...

[Dane96]

Drake seems to be playing pretty well....nice job blocking the kick!!!

[igo4uni]

Drake blocks a FG attempt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[windwalker]

FG Blocked...

[laparka316]

Jacob Craig blocks the FG... also has a sack for the game... Drake is in BUSINESS

[Dane96]

Damn....almost broke one!!!

[AggiePride]

GO DRAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DetroitFlyer]

Wow, a PFL thread on AGS.... Amazing.

[Dane96]

7-0 at the quarter.

[Dane96]

Not amazing...just finally a game that means something...

Just kidding!!! I know the feeling, when UA got our first thread I was pretty happy!

[GOTOREROS]

Drake seems to be playing pretty well....nice job blocking the kick!!!

Well, they had a great ST play but the Drake offense has done nothing - so far at least...

[igo4uni]

These Drake radio annoucers are fun... You can feel their excitment in their voices.
They give credit due when it IS due.. and basically call it as it is..

Good job..

Good job..

If anyone cares Jack Harbaugh is doing the color commentary on USD radio - its pay per listen though....Jack is not as polished on air but he sure knows how to describe and comment on what each team is doing...

GOTOREROS

[laparka316]

USD is playing the run, need to get the play-action going to allow for Phaydavong to do his damage later

HUGE punt for Drake - downed at the USD 2 yard line...

[Dane96]

whoa...what a punt!

[DetroitFlyer]

Drake punting.... Punt off, downed at the one yard line. Wow! Drake special teams have stepped up tonight. About a 66 yard punt!

[Dane96]

make that the 1 yard line...66 yard punt

[windwalker]

Great Punt... 66 yds down to USD's One

[igo4uni]

USD at their own 1 yd. line.

[BigApp]

i wish Drake would get their live stats to work

[Dane96]

Big App...your last post made this 1st line, page 1 material!!!

[DetroitFlyer]

Any word how many fans showed up to night?

[UNHWildCats]

wats the score?

[GOTOREROS]

USD runs out to 25 yard line....1st DOWN!

USD 7 Drake 0

[DetroitFlyer]

Big run by Rogan.... Now not backed up at the goal line. Too bad for Drake

[igo4uni]

holding against USD.

[GOTOREROS]

i wish Drake would get their live stats to work

No doubt - Gametracker is awesome. Not sure how so many schools don't have it......

[GOTOREROS]

USD gains 24 yards on the ground 1st down Toreros!

[DetroitFlyer]

Rogan running all over Drake

[DetroitFlyer]

Drake's D, maybe bend but don't break

[GOTOREROS]

USD first down, ball on the Drake 22.

[DetroitFlyer]

USD rolling..... Drive started on the 1 or so, now at the Drake 22 or so...

[GOTOREROS]

Jennings from Drake is having a great game so far on defense...

[DetroitFlyer]

Sounds like Drake is getting some pressure on JJ

[windwalker]

Thought the announcer said incomplete.. but guess he said it's complete REAL FAST!! LOL

2 and 10 from Bulldogs 22...
Drake dropped them for no gain..
3 and 10

[GOTOREROS]

Doh! Here comes our kicker! NO!!!!!!!!


Whew USD 10 Drake 0 FG is good from 38 yards...

[igo4uni]

USD stopped on 3rd down.

[DetroitFlyer]

Big play.... USD 3rd and 10. Pressure, incomplete! Another FG attempt?

38 yard attempt, good! USD 10 Drake 0

[windwalker]

10 -zip

[GOTOREROS]

Drake is starting to move the ball...

[DetroitFlyer]

Big play, but Drake holds.... Coming back. Were all the way to the 7. Bummer for Drake! Back to the USD 49.

[GOTOREROS]

Big play.... USD 3rd and 10. Pressure, incomplete! Another FG attempt?

38 yard attempt, good! USD 10 Drake 0

If USD has one weakness it is our kicking game - hopefully it doesn't come back to haunt us later....

[windwalker]

USD holds... Drake has to punt again...

[GOTOREROS]

Drake forced to punt again....1st and 10 USD on the USD 17 yard line

[windwalker]

Did anyone else hear what I just heard the announcer say???

" You have to make those plays when you are playing the number one team in the nation "

[GOTOREROS]

Did anyone else hear what I just heard the announcer say???

IT'S OFFICIAL!!!! :hurray: :hurray: :hurray:

(hope you get my sarcasm)

[AggiePride]

I think they mean non-scholly? No?

[GOTOREROS]

I think they mean non-scholly? No?


"mid-major" poll is what they are referring to...

[windwalker]

IT'S OFFICIAL!!!! :hurray: :hurray: :hurray:

(hope you get my sarcasm)

Just realized that he earlier had said that USD was #1 and Drake #2 in the "mid major" poll..

Oh no... is USD going to punt again????

[windwalker]

Went for it on 4th down and got it... Big balls Harbaugh... it worked

[laparka316]

17-0 half... not looking good for the home team

[DetroitFlyer]

OK, USD up 17-0 at the half, at Drake. Any believers yet?

[GOTOREROS]

HALFTIME USD 17 DRAKE 0

USD gets the ball to start the second half....

[windwalker]

OK, USD up 17-0 at the half, at Drake. Any believers yet?

In Drake?? or the Flyers?? or USD??

I believe each team exists... LOL

USD is playing good football tonight...

[ISUMatt]

Wheres my USD hat?

[BillLuc1982]

C'mon, let's see a comeback!

[AggiePride]

"mid-major" poll is what they are referring to...

Sorry, my mistake, in D2 we were all grouped equally.

[Dane96]

OK, USD up 17-0 at the half, at Drake. Any believers yet?

You must be kidding. This game, so far, does nothing to solidfy anything. If they were blowing out Drake, yeah I would agree. But the game I am listening to is a dogfight, score notwithstanding.

And no offense to Drake, they are not exactly a Top 35 team (Drake that is).

[GOTOREROS]

Sorry, my mistake, in D2 we were all grouped equally.


Agreed. I think they should get rid of "mid major" label makes it confusing. Either I-AA or you're not, just my opinion...

Oh come on Dane... You have to admit, USD is the #1 mid major.. no doubt about that...

[AggiePride]

Agreed. I think they should get rid of "mid major" label makes it confusing. Either I-AA or you're not, just my opinion...

Totally, labels are lame. I think it helped Davis in D2 polls.

USD is not hitting on all cylinders, and you have to give credit to Drake for making stops. USD is notorious for coming out of the half well - outscoring opponents 53-7. We shall see what happens...

GOTOREROS

[crunifan]

Is San Diego a good mid-major? Most definitely.

But look what UNI did to Drake (at Drake) and then tell me again that San Diego can compete with good scholarship teams.

[Dane96]

Well, if you are not including the NEC in mid-major....yeah, sure. If you are, no, I am not going to give USD that honor....just yet.

[DetroitFlyer]

OK, define a blow out. If the second half is a repeat of the first half, hold on, lt me do my higher math, and I am an Engineer and all,.... Cyphering..... OK, 34-0. USD is a darn good team!!!! Drake has not been held to 0 points in a half yet this year. For crying out load, give some credit where credit is due. USD is also shutting down Scotty P far better than UNI did.

[GOTOREROS]

Might be too simplistic given the weather conditions, but yes in general terms USD is not on level with the scholarship programs...I will agree and you have no argument from me.

Relax man.

[GOTOREROS]

Drake 33 yards rushing in first half...Phaydavong has been stopped thus far, but still a lot of time left...Drake is the 3rd ranked rushing team in the nation coming into this game...

[AggiePride]

I'm impressed with USD, I was really looking forward to this game.

The current developments definately make me biased.

[DetroitFlyer]

Hey man, after that heartbreaking loss my Flyers suffered today at Davidson, I have had to imbibe numerous adult beverages. I am certainly relaxed. And for the record, USD is rolling again....

[GOTOREROS]

We're not going to get a bid - we will be up in Davis on the 25th trust me. I would love to get into the playoffs, but the reality is that we are still on the outside looking in. I am excited to play Davis. I think we might be able to hang in there for a quarter or two but your depth and talent will get us in the end...

[AggiePride]

Sometimes you could type in a way that expresses that. I try.

I general I would say Davis fans feel dissed by your Coach havings pipe dreams over the fact that Davis really should be considered a PO game for your school. In a sense.

And Davis is not looking down, we were you guys in D2.

The only argument I have ever made are the facts, USD has no measure with its SOS.

[windwalker]

since we were playing the infamous "Idle U" this week.. I had to " imbibe numerous adult beverages" on the golf course today..

[GOTOREROS]

You need to put much of Harbaugh into context - the guy is trying to get that next job so he is on a PR trip. Sucks for USD but Harbaugh will be gone as soon as he can leave....

[GOTOREROS]

TD Josh Johnson - 24-0 USD over Drake...

[GOTOREROS]

USD may be up 24 points right now, but Drake is a good team......

[AggiePride]

You need to put much of Harbaugh into context - the guy is trying to get that next job so he is on a PR trip. Sucks for USD but Harbaugh will be gone as soon as he can leave....

I agree to an extent. But our coach had much better luck with being subtle, using years to establish consistancy, and proving it on the field. Respect for others always, especially the teams on this board.

So, his aspirations for a better job, are going to piss people off. Basically. I hope USD finds a great coach, I know for Davis it is huge.

I really want USD in the GWFC. I think it could take you guys to the next level, and bring CA I-AA into the spotlight.

[windwalker]

Holding on Drake cancels a good run...

3 rd and 11 now..

Drake just can't get anyting going...

[windwalker]

oh... bad... punter drops the ball..
USD has the ball on the 17

TD To matthews..

USD rolls...

[GOTOREROS]

TOUCHDOWN USD!! 31-0 USD OVER DRAKE!

[igo4uni]

looks bad for Drake.

[DetroitFlyer]

OK new found PFL fans.... USD is up 31-0. Is this a blow out yet?

[SO ILLmatic]

The question now is how many points Jimmy H is going to have the Torreros run up on the scoreboard?

[AggiePride]

OK new found PFL fans.... USD is up 31-0. Is this a blow out yet?

Blow out for sure.

I would have loved to see them play Minnesota today.

[GOTOREROS]

The question now is how many points Jimmy H is going to have the Torreros run up on the scoreboard?


Hey, this game isn't over yet. Lots of time left for Drake...

[windwalker]

looks bad for Drake.

On the other hand... doesn't it look good for USD???

depends on your point of view I would assume...

[SO ILLmatic]

Lots of time for them to get scored on by the Torrero first stringers

[GOTOREROS]

Offense through 3 quarters:

USD 370 yards
Drake 105 yards

[igo4uni]

On the other hand... doesn't it look good for USD???

depends on your point of view I would assume...

Yes................ good point.

[UNHWildCats]

The question now is how many points Jimmy H is going to have the Torreros run up on the scoreboard?

History shows he'll throw for the endzone up 60-0 with 5 seconds left.

[GOTOREROS]

USD makes a goal line stand and gets the ball back from Drake....

[GOTOREROS]

So how many points is not too many? Just wondering......

[windwalker]

History shows he'll throw for the endzone up 60-0 with 5 seconds left.


The anouncer's just said.. " They have a lot of their starters still in".. and the other one said.. "They have to try to score to boost their rankings in I-AA for the playoffs"

Heck a win is a win... don't rub it in...

[DetroitFlyer]

I understand that this is the first year most of you have ever heard of USD, but ever since they destroyed my Flyers at Dayton last year, I have been a believer.... We led USD 24-20 at the half, and lost something like 48-24 or so.... USD is a VERY good team. They do virtually everything well. If they do make the playoffs, they will give ANY team a great game.

[DetroitFlyer]

USD is trying to make the playoffs against ALL odds, Josh Johnson is trying to win the Payton award, and yet there are folks that will hammer USD for running up the score against their best test this year, on the road at a 6-1 Drake.... USD is a good team. Accept it!

[GOTOREROS]

USD fumbles at the Drake 19 yard line...argh...lucky for us it avoids another score to rub it in...

[UNHWildCats]

The anouncer's just said.. " They have a lot of their starters still in".. and the other one said.. "They have to try to score to boost their rankings in I-AA for the playoffs"

more points isnt gonna help? Someone needs to tell the moron announcers its allow about the quality of schedule.

How'd you lose four points in the second half? ;)

USD is good, no doubt.

[windwalker]

WOW USD made amistake... fumble...

Drake's ball on about the 20

Well the back up RB fumbled the ball on the Drake 19.....make you feel better?:eyebrow: LOL.

GT

[windwalker]

Perfect pass... now the anouncers are starting to sound like sour grapes...

Heck... USD is doing what they THINK they have to do... Beat everybody by as much as they can.. Killer instinct ain't all bad..

yes they are a good team... to bad they didn't play a better schedule..

[DetroitFlyer]

Up 37-0 over Drake. Does anyone remember me predicting an UNI type win for USD against Drake? USD can play with ANYBODY! Believe it!

Too bad we'll never know that for sure since they won't schedule SOMEBODY!

[windwalker]

drake has totally self destructed in the red zone tonight...

they could have had at least 6 points...

Good win for USD
and time to say good night...

BTW... Coastal edged out "Ilde" 2 - 0.. got a safety with 3 seconds left..

[DetroitFlyer]

USD 37 Drake 0!

USD is a darn good team.... Believe It!!!!!

[GOTOREROS]

USD beats Drake by 37....

UNI beats Drake by 41.....

Not sure why the UNI fans were popping off before and during this game...

OK, you beat them by 41 points, we beat them by 37 points.......what's your "POINT"?

How about these stats UNI fans:

USD 513 total yards vs Drake
UNI 448 total yards vs Drake

Drake 282 yards total yards vs. UNI
Drake 200 yards total yards vs. San Diego

GOTOREROS

No way of knowing that...:read: xcoffeex

[MiamiTorero]

Sochor- How on earth can you make that statement? you're an idiot... the biggest idiot ever

[crunifan]

I believe our starters were out the entire 4th quarter.

[crunifan]

P.S.- I would LOVE UNI to play you.

We would shut you up so fast your heads would spin. We'll have to suffice to letting UC Davis do it for us.

[SochorField]

Sochor- How on earth can you make that statement? you're an idiot... the biggest idiot ever



I'm so tired of USD fans at this point.....biggest mouths ever. Just be quiet for a day or two.

[MiamiTorero]

When we lose I'll shut up but we havent so I wont. Keep hatin on us

"IT'S ABOUT THE T! THAT'S ALL WE CARE ABOUT IS THE T!"

[redbirdtim]

I would love to see USD play any Gateway school that isn't Missouri State or Indiana St.. I really think a home and home could work. Would get Gateway schools some exposure in that area and well...USD already plays a lot out in the midwest...so...just good for us I guess.

[Coastal89]

I believe our starters were out the entire 4th quarter.
I believe your correct, according to the stats page, and UNI still scored 14 in the 4th. BTW, that was the first game of the season against an in-state school so the kids likely played against each other for years in HS. USD had the advantage of this years game films too, something UNI didn't have. UNI was still better prepared.

[SochorField]

When we lose I'll shut up but we havent so I wont. Keep hatin on us

"IT'S ABOUT THE T! THAT'S ALL WE CARE ABOUT IS THE T!"



Not "hatin," just getting annoyed. Lets stop before this before the thread goes to smack. :thumbsup:

[GOTOREROS]

P.S.- I would LOVE UNI to play you.

We would shut you up so fast your heads would spin. We'll have to suffice to letting UC Davis do it for us.

My point was to say that you can't really compare results by simply saying so and so beat somebody by "x" points etc. There are many variables that make it a fallacy to think you can do that.

I have no idea how USD would fare against UNI - I think we might hang in there for a quarter or two and then your depth and talent would take over. That is the basic difference between the PFL and larger scholarship programs - depth and number of talent....
