FCS Semifinal - Illinois State @ New Hampshire

[Gil Dobie]

Their quarterback was a transfer from Alabama and he tore our defence up. If he hasn't have gotten injured, Toledo would have been a contender for a MAC championship.

It looks like their were contenders for the MAC championship, only 1 loss in the conference. They lost to Iowa St with their #2 QB, because they had a bad MAC Defense.

[Mattymc727]

The Toledo game still has my head scratching. That was just a very poor performance by UNH. If UNH plays like that again, ISUr will win by 20+. I have never seen a team be up by two scores to being destroyed like that so fast. I think they ran out of gas in the second half for some reason and Toledo did whatever it wanted. After that game, UNH had a bye week and hasn't looked that bad since.

Same problem with CMU two years ago. UNH owned that game, and than absolutely blew it.

[chattownmocs]

I think UNH is pretty tough to run right at. We will see though.

[Houndawg]

I guess I do have a short fuze when a simple and very easy to understand question is answered by some sarcastic jerk. I shouldn't be mad though UNH is in the playoffs for the 11th straight season and in the semi's for the second year in a row. UD sucks and will continue to suck for another few years so have fun with that. Most Delaware fans are respectful and rational, can't say the same for you, but like i said you are probably old fat and have nothing better to do than troll and giggle to yourself afterwards. hope I didn't violate any rules this time.


xlolx

Sounds like him.. xnodx

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Go Redbirds!!

[Mattymc727]

Offensive coordinator Carty talking about UNH and the "trick" play element that goes back to Chip Kelly. We see a couple every week, and its really hard to prepare for because they get crazier and crazier. Its almost like you have to hope UNH screws it up more than you can prepare to stop it:

[Redbirdgrad]

So many coaches on this board... it's comical.

[Redbird 4th & short]

Washington was 124th, giving up 283 yards per game.

Is that Washington (8-5) or WSU (3-9) ??

[Gil Dobie]

Is that Washington (8-5) or WSU (3-9) ??

Washington Huskies

[Redbird 4th & short]

Washington Huskies
well, EWU's 52 points was the most they gave up all year. The next 2 highest were Oregon's 45 pts and UCLA's 44 pts ; everyone else they played were held under 24 points.

[Skycop27]

UNH UNH UNH

[ValleyTalk]

I'm ready for the dual Missouri Valley / National Championship.

GO REDBIRDS!

[Bisonator]

See you guys in Frisco!

[X-Factor]

I'm ready for the dual Missouri Valley / National Championship.

GO REDBIRDS!
That would be a good game. For selfish reasons I'm hoping for UNH, but I also understand what the odds of that are.

[TheRevSFA]

I have ties to both schools, so I just hope to see a good game tomorrow. Best of luck to both teams

[centennial]

UNH will have to play their best game of the season. If not they might get steamrolled. Still think it should be close. ISU really looks like a mid-upper big 10 team this season

[Catsfan90]

Here we go got all the essentials loaded up and ready to go! lets go cats, hoping for an awesome one today!

[caribbeanhen]

I really think UNH will be exposed today, despite playing at home in the Dungeon.....

question: How many fans will Illinois State bring to Frisco? about 1000 or so?

[UNIFanSince1983]

I really think UNH will be exposed today, despite playing at home in the Dungeon.....

Well if their home playoff game is any indication then 1000 might be high.

[BigHouseClosedEnd]

Go get em, Wildcats!

[IBleedYellow]

Well if their home playoff game is any indication then 1000 might be high.

Seriously? Last year Towson brought almost no one...now we have either UNH who may bring people and ISU who won't?

Lame. Tailgating with the Kats was part of the fun the first two years.

[NHwildEcat]

The predictions of a blowout are comical. UNH at home, no shot in hell of a blowout.

This will be a tight game, and I have complete confidence that the best HC in the nation can come up with a game plan that gets UNH into the National Title game, and a shot a revenge on NDSU!

GO CATS!

[UNHWildcat18]

Seriously? Last year Towson brought almost no one...now we have either UNH who may bring people and ISU who won't?

Its hard a lot of these northeast teams dont have the largest stadiums or largest fan followings. So many other sport interests around NH but I think with the new stadium the following will grow as will the traveling following.

[Crimson Crow]

The 'Birds will win easily, but it should be a good game.xpopcornx

Neither UNH or ISU will bring many fans. 95% Bison fans again.....xthumbsupx

[IBleedYellow]

Bison Home Game *clap clap clap*

[Redbird 13]

Well if their home playoff game is any indication then 1000 might be high.

Can we get to the game before we start ripping on how many ISU fans will make the trip?

The Redbirds will travel just fine.

[NDSUSR]

They were not tough to run on last year, and are not this year either.

GO CATS!

I personally would love to see UNH in Frisco. We only beat you by 38 last year, 45 would be great this year.
Alas, I am pretty confident it will be the MVFC co-champions who face off in Frisco to decide the "real" MVFC champ!

[mmiller_34]

Cmon REdBIRds!

VCU played well. Good for them.

UNH UNH UNH


You at a rave?

[IBleedYellow]

I hear Jay Walker is casting this? I'm actually glad I'm at work and can't watch this, if so.

[Southern Bison]

Interesting call on the ISU kickoff for a pooch...short field for UNH.

[centennial]

His Jersey toughness?

[Sycamore62]

Did UNH have some huge returns last week?

[Mr. C]

Nice look of the decrepit surroundings of Cowell Stadium and the UNH fieldhouse next door. Just shows what a great coaching job Sean and his staff do with the program. What a dump.

[Mr. C]

Jay Walker didn't eat his Wheaties this morning. They could take some one off the street in Durham, N.H. who could do a better job.

[Mr. C]

I guess Walker never was asked to throw a shovel pass at Howard.

TD for Goldrich and UNH on a run.

[centennial]

UNH using a lot of pitches but getting blown...

- - - Updated - - -

TD!

[Mr. C]

Illinois State looked real unbalanced on defense on the UNH TD.

New Hampshire 7, Illinois State 3, late in the first quarter.

[IBleedYellow]

The fact UNH doesn't have a place kicker and they go for it on 4th and 12...yeah this one's done if they can't kick FG's.

EDIT:
WTF ESPNN Gamecast...it says New Hampshire turnedover on downs. They scored?

[centennial]

Redbirds look too keen and are tackling poorly in the back, they need to settle down.

[Mr. C]

On the announcers:

It has never been easier to watch game film, or TV games of schools you are covering. Why can't these guys be professional enough to prepare for broadcasts?

[IBleedYellow]

It's Jay Walker. Do you seriously think he's going to look at film other than MEAC schools?

Hell no.

[Mr. C]

EDIT:

ESPN Gamecast has a lot of screwups every week. Sometimes they credit teams with scoring TWO TDs on one drive.

[Drblankstare]

On the announcers:

It has never been easier to watch game film, or TV games of schools you are covering. Why can't these guys be professional enough to prepare for broadcasts?

They usually have 2 taking points for each team, which they then repeat over and over the whole game.

[IBleedYellow]

Welp Mr. C....I'm counting on you to tell me play by play.

[Mr. C]

With all of the passing, this is going to be a long game. Almost 40 minutes to play the first quarter already.

[centennial]

Dangerous throw in the middle but thrown perfectly. 1st and goal ISUr.

[Sycamore62]

Goal line FCS replays are worthless. How much are 2 or 4 cameras

the official was pretty sure with his bean bag though

[Mr. C]

Welp Mr. C....I'm counting on you to tell me play by play.
A lot harder to do when I am not in the press box, though I do not miss the catacombs at Cowell Stadium.

ISU blows another drive with a fumble. Being looked at in video review.

[centennial]

Wow! Turnover. QB loses the ball trying to force it into the endzone.

[Drblankstare]

What a huge play for UNH.

[Southern Bison]

Wow...ISU blows a great chance.

[Mr. C]

The fumble recovery stands for UNH.

ISU moving the ball well, but not much to show for it.

[centennial]

UNH is going to need some breaks like this to keep in this game.

[Mr. C]

UNH pinned in deep as the first quarter ends.

New Hampshire 7
Illinois State 3

End of First Period

[Southern Bison]

UNH is going to need some breaks like this to keep in this game.
I was thinking the same thing.

The UNH D doesn't seem to be able to handle the Redbirds.

[Mr. C]

Something UNH has always done so well. Throw deep to the TE. UNH pass for 47 yards, Goldrich to Spear to the ISU 43.

- - - Updated - - -

Another first down near the 30 on a pass completion and a Goldrich run

[Mr. C]

Missed tackles are killing ISU in this game. 2nd and short instead of stopping a receiver for two yards. Another first down

- - - Updated - - -

Steretti for 14 to the 5 for another first down.

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

UNH TD.

[Mr. C]

Steretti on the dive for six points.

- - - Updated - - -

UNH Vailes runs for two.

- - - Updated - - -

New Hampshire 15
Illinois State 3

Early in the second period.

[centennial]

ISU will lose if they don't get better on tackling.

[dwtime]

Nice 96 yard drive for the Cats!

[Mr. C]

ISU needs to score on this drive. The Redbirds are trailing for the first time in the postseason.

[dwtime]

Refs missed a nice hold on ISU there on the facemask....

[Mr. C]

ISU quickly to the UNH 40. And then a comeback check-down to near the 30. Run for a first down to the 28.

[Mr. C]

Another 6-yard run to the 21. Option keep stuffed near the 20. 3rd down.

[Mr. C]

No where to go on a run up the middle. Decision time for ISU on 4th down.

- - - Updated - - -

40-yard FG is pushed wide right.

[dwtime]

Missed it yeah!

[Mr. C]

Illinois State is missing a lot of chances early. You can't do that against UNH at Cowell Stadium and expect to win.

- - - Updated - - -

You have to question why ISU went away from the pass at the end of that drive.

[Skycop27]

Plenty of game left, UNH has the MOMENTUM

[Mr. C]

One of those great crossing routes for UNH to Harris and he is out to the UNH 49.

That was bad play calling. Clearly the box was stacked, they needed a screen or a short throw instead the runner ran into a bunch of UNH players.

[Mr. C]

Harris now has more catches than the awesome David Ball at UNH.

- - - Updated - - -

Roberson needed to check off to a pass on third down.

[Drblankstare]

I'll st better pick it up or this could get real ugly.

[Mr. C]

Amazing throw to Goldrich as he was being sacked as he gets the ball to Harris on a comeback. UNH called for holding to wipe out a nice play.

[Southern Bison]

Goldrich looks hurt...

[Mr. C]

Third down pass in eight-man cover to Spears the TE. 4th and 2.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

A lot of game left.

[Mr. C]

Goldrich looks hurt...
He has taken some accumulative shots. But like Villanova, UNH has a great backup QB in Vailes.

[Skycop27]

not the best special teams yet today. better clock management though

[Mr. C]

The punt for UNH on 4th and 2 at the 42 skipped into the end zone. ISU ball at its own 20, needing a scoring drive.

[Mr. C]

not the best special teams yet today. better clock management though
Special teams has never been a great part of UNH's game, outside of returns.

Neblet catches one deep on the post to the UNH 3.

[Mr. C]

Remember that kid from the ISU overtime upset at Appalachian State in 2012.

[Skycop27]

wow

[Mr. C]

UNH stuffs the run again. Check off, Roberson!

Another stuff on Roberson. 4th and goal.

[Skycop27]

BEND BUT DON'T BREAK! Very well done.

[Mr. C]

Field goal for ISU

New Hampshire 15
Illinois State 6 with 1:45 left in the half.

[kdinva]

FG, 15-6 UNH.....

[Mr. C]

BEND BUT DON'T BREAK! Very well done.
And more bad play-calling for the Redbirds.

[centennial]

Bad play calling in the red zone.

[Mr. C]

UNH has a chance to score again before the half ends after a good return.

- - - Updated - - -

After two incompletions, ISU might get it back with some time.

- - - Updated - - -

Interception near midfield.

[Skycop27]

ouch! too much pressure on D horrible clock management

[Mr. C]

Great catch by a lineman on that pick

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

INT.....this could be a game changer here if the Redbirds score before half.

[centennial]

Turnover.

[mmiller_34]

Redbirds don't have much consistency today

[centennial]

Terrible O play calling again.

[Mr. C]

Deep post is covered well incomplete on first down.

Six points thuis far for ISU in four trips to the red zone.

- - - Updated - - -

3rd and 10 for ISU after another incompletion.

- - - Updated - - -

Throw into triple coverage and the dangerous throw is almost intercepted and incomplete

- - - Updated - - -

Still 1:04 left for UNH with 3 time outs left.

- - - Updated - - -

Sterreti runs for 9 on the draw.

Harris limps off with a left ankle injury.

[Skycop27]

just get it to halftime

[dwtime]

Harris and Goldrich are hurt, not good for the Cats. Lets see what they come up with for the 2nd half.

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

UNH has to be happy being up 15-6. QB hurting and now Harris....Redbirds moving the ball but not finishing.

Should be a great second half.

[Mr. C]

Halftime

New Hampshire 15
Illinois State 6

[centennial]

If ISU can sort things out they can win, if not they will lose. I blame the QB being too eager and unimaginative O play calling.

[Mr. C]

And now for some Las Vegas Bowl highlights.

Yuck.

Because Georgia Southern and Appalachian State were bowl ineligible, a Louisiana-Lafayette team that lost to both of them is playing in that meaningless bowl. Broadway, the QB for ULL is the best in the SUn Belt. 14 straight completions today. It is a very poor conference for QBs in my opinion after covering that league all year. Most of the CAA, the MVFC, the Big Sky and some of the Southland would beat those teams.

[Sycamore62]

This is the ISUr team I watched play ISUb

MVFC is better. CAA, Big Sky, Big South, Southland are similar take out a few really bad teams.

Is there anyway to stream the game online free with an iPad?

[centennial]

Depending on your internet and cable provider watch ESPN works fine. If not firstrow might have it but not for the iPad.

[Skycop27]

UNH gets ball to open, would it be blasphemous to want Vailas?

[Mr. C]

UNH will have the first crack in the second half. Goldrich has his ankle heavily taped. Vailes is in on the first play with Goldrich and takes a big shot.

[NDSUSR]

Looked a little helmet to helmet to me. No mention of targeting...

[Houndawg]

If ISU can sort things out they can win, if not they will lose. I blame the QB being too eager and unimaginative O play calling.

This is a no-lose situation for Saluki fans - either we get an all-MVC final or we get the pleasure of watching the 'turds choke.

Pretty clear they were looking past these guys. what do the halftime stats look like?

[Mr. C]

Shot to the head for Vailes, who is still down. He is finally up and off the field, but looking woozy.

[Skycop27]

What a head shot, Vailas done

[dwtime]

You know what you knock a guy out you don't high five your teammate. #1 for ISU is a douchebag.

[Skycop27]

UNH does have many weapons.

[mainejeff]

You know what you knock a guy out you don't high five your teammate. #1 for ISU is a douchebag.

Agreed. Should have been a penalty.

[Skycop27]

home run was there

[Mr. C]

Goldrich not looking good on that bad leg. He misses a wide-open Harris behind the secondary.

- - - Updated - - -

Goldrich with a gutsy run for a first down.

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

WOW...nice grab by Harris!!!! UNH on the move.

[Mr. C]

Wonder if there are any Ricky Santos-types hanging around on the UNH bench. Anyone remember that UNH upset of defending national champion Delaware on the road on the opening night of the 2004 season? From fifth string to the Payton Award ...

[hebmskebm]

UNH is so well coached.

[Skycop27]

many weapons

[Mr. C]

26-yard screen play beats an ISU blitz. UNH down around the 20.

[Houndawg]

Its a characteristic of the breed....xcoffeex

[Skycop27]

1st and goal!!

[Mr. C]

More missed tackles and Harris on the reverse inside the 10. 1st and goal.

[Skycop27]

can you say harold spears?

[Mr. C]

UNH is so well coached.
Probably the best coached team in FCS.

[centennial]

So many missed tackles.

[Skycop27]

watch the fake

[Mr. C]

ISU holds to force a field goal with blitz pressure.

- - - Updated - - -

25-yared FG makes it UNH 18, ISU 6 with 10:45 left in the third period.

[Skycop27]

I'll take the 5 minutes of clock and the 3

[centennial]

ISU better get their heads in the game or its over.

[Mr. C]

The key drive of the game is coming up for Illinois State. It is put up, or shut up time for the Redbirds.

[Skycop27]

will be a telling drive here

[BisonFan02]

Not gonna lie....feeling pretty good right now.

[Mr. C]

Seeing that press box brings back BAD memories of my computer freezing there in the 1994 playoffs. At least it is enclosed now instead of open air. Boy was it cold there that day.

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

WOW.....wrong direction son...

[IBleedYellow]

Not gonna lie....feeling pretty good right now.

I'm thinking the same thing. The fourpeat doesn't look as hard as it did about 3 weeks ago.

That said, you still have to play the game.

[Mr. C]

Pass play is a yard short on third down.

[Mr. C]

UNH will be backed up by a block in the back to wipe out a good punt return.

[dwtime]

Nice call refs way to ignore the ISU player ripping off DeAndrade's helmet.

[Mr. C]

Andy Vailes is out for the rest of the game with a concussion.

Steretti with a big 27-yard run. More bad tackling.

[Skycop27]

New Hampshire TOUGH and GUTS

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

Another 6 pts. left on the field.

[Mr. C]

Goldrich has two receivers behind the secondary and misses Harris again for another possible TD.

[Skycop27]

ok, ok, I'll take the 13 plays again

[Mr. C]

Big third and 6 near midfield for UNH and Goldrich calls a time out with ISU showing a full blitz.

[Skycop27]

shovel pass or screen could work here

[R3TRO]

UNH has left 2 TD's on the field in this quarter. What a shame.

[Sycamore62]

It may be telling for me that for 2 weeks I have watched games with a team in mind I wanted to win, then toward the end I was always for the losing team. I think it may be because I hate all these teams and all of you.

/kidding

/kind of

[Skycop27]

False start against a potential UNH blitz.

[Mr. C]

Pass play is broken up by the UNH secondary. Punt time again for ISU. UNH seems to have made some good defensive adjustments.

[Skycop27]

where is this all world running back?

[Mr. C]

Bad punt gives UNH good field position with the third quarter winding down.

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

Great field postion for UNH...time to connect on a long pass and put 6 on the board. Let's go UNH.

[mmiller_34]

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

Give the UNH defense some credit here.......

[Mr. C]

ISU is aty least settling in defensively. Three and out for UNH. ISU ball at the 16 after a nice punt.

[Skycop27]

all year long our clock management is taking years off my young life:D

[Mr. C]

I think the Coprich streak of 13 straight 100-yard games is going to come to an end. Two unsuccessful runs. Third down.

[mainejeff]

UNH has more team speed.xpeacex

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Bad playcalling killed ISU.


This here and UNH is playing really good defense.

[mmiller_34]

Such good 6-second bursts

[Mr. C]

First-down conversion on a pass to Meredith. Meredith is hit hard on a catch after a play fake.

[Sycamore62]

The tackle on 19 got more crowd response than it should have

[Houndawg]

Somebody call a social worker and make the abuse stop....xlolx

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

Here come the Redbirds....game on with a score here.

[R3TRO]

Goldrich missing those two touchdown throws to Harris is going to come back to haunt is. Dammit!

[Skycop27]

need more than 3 here

[Mr. C]

Warrum with a catch to the 17 and Roberson with a run on a broken play as the third quarter ends.

[mmiller_34]

The 6 second bursts should hold the ISUr offense

[Sycamore62]

Dear Mr Announcer, so we're clear, last year at this time Roberson's season with the Hoosiers was over for 3 weeks

[Skycop27]

ILL State still very much in the game.
Who will make the crucial plays?

UNH UNH UNH

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Ill State needs a score here!

[centennial]

With a score it might be game on..

[mmiller_34]

Those 6 second bursts tho!

[Mr. C]

TD pass is dropped in the end zone by ISU

[Mr. C]

Running out of the pocket, Roberson makes a first-down completion near the goal line.

[mmiller_34]

What a catch

[Sycamore62]

Not sure that was a catch

[Mr. C]

Finally a TD on a poor throw from Roberson. Now under review.

[Skycop27]

ball is on the ground

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

No catch...

[centennial]

Right out of NDSU playbook. TD!!

[Bronco]

Great hands for a fullback...give it to him

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Don't think that is a TD

[Mr. C]

Think it will be overturned.

[dwtime]

Thats not a catch

[NDSUSR]

TD pass is dropped in the end zone by ISU
I would not call that dropped, it was a very good move by the defense to knock the ball down.
Great effort.

[centennial]

I think he has control... might go either way.

[Houndawg]

Sad trombone....

[Mr. C]

TD overturned.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Still 2nd down....get the TD.

[Mr. C]

I would not call that dropped, it was a very good move by the defense to knock the ball down.
Great effort.
If it is in your hands, you should catch it.

TD run from the two for ISU.

Last possession wins??
Not if UNH responds here. Key defensive sequence for ISU.

[Skycop27]

championship football on the line now

[NDSUSR]

ISU will hold on this drive!!!

[Houndawg]

Make it a track meet

[Skycop27]

key drive for UNH, ILL St has the MO

[Mr. C]

UNH will start at the 29

[Sycamore62]

I'm pretty sure the motion #80 went in from a covered up tight end to a slot without ever coming set should have been an illegal shift on the TD

[Mr. C]

Nice play to get the third down conversion to Harris.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Big 3rd down conversion for UNH

[Mr. C]

Goldrich floated a nice pass up to Harris, who can't hang on deep. Harris is down on the play.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Wow...got to catch that ball

[Mr. C]

Harris limping off the field again. Think this tough guy will be back.

[Mr. C]

Goldrich is sacked and it forces a UNH punt with 11:11 left.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Good stop for the Redbirds!!

[Mr. C]

Great punt pins ISU back at the 11.

How does a receiver landing funny after jumping up for a ball and possibly even just knocking the wind out of himself via the ball have anything at all to do with the physical nature of MVFC football? That was a moronic comment.

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

Both teams have left points on the field. Coming down to the team that can execute here in the 4th quarter.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Is Ill State wearing UNH down?

[Mr. C]

Still not much running room for Coprich. Third and long.

Thats literally how physical it is. Even things that aren't normally considered physical is now physical.

They als keep forgetting the O in O'Shagunessy

Two-point play is a flanker option pitch for the goal line
