Weber State at JMU (Quarterfinal)

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Schor is from my neck of the woods. He played HS in the same league as my HS alma mater's and he juco'd at our local JC. I've kept up with this kid for years. He usually runs a really tight ship on offense. He needs to settle the offense down and display some serious leadership...

[mmiller_34]

All I hear are Weber fans chanting “Weber State, Weber State.”

[PantherRob82]

JMU unraveling. I'm shocked at the coaching and lack of composure from the Dukes.

[Lorne_Malvo]

If Weber gets point on this drive JMU becomes unglued.

[jmuwishyouhadadukedog]

If Weber gets point on this drive JMU becomes unglued.

I agree if its a touchdown.

[mmiller_34]

Still decent field position for Weber even after the flag.

[centennial]

JMU unraveling. I'm shocked at the coaching and lack of composure from the Dukes.

JMU is an undisciplined team. And that coach doesn't know how to play call under pressure.

[cx500d]

Too much purple in this game IMO

[mmiller_34]

+1

[Professor Chaos]

JMU just needs to relax. They've got plenty of chances left to take control back. Not a lot of composure from them given that it's still a tight game.

[Daytripper]

He was wide open.

[Lorne_Malvo]

4th quarter is pressure... Lets not put the wagon in front of the horse.

[Drblankstare]

Weber offense going for the throat. They missed but I love it

[Reign of Terrier]

Yeah, you'd expect more composure from the defending champs

[cx500d]

Weber too greedy considering the QB has poor accuracy

[Lorne_Malvo]

Stupid of Weber...

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Basically a punt. See if JMU gets some momentum out of it....

[Daytripper]

Cantwell flew too close to the sun....

[cx500d]

He looked at one guy the whole time

[cx500d]

wasted opportunity

[centennial]

Bad throw. JMU has a chance.

[mmiller_34]

Let’s see if JMU got it figured out after that

[Bisonator]

Doesn't JMU have a bigger back for short yardage?

[Lorne_Malvo]

Shor will burn Weber deep sooner or later...

[cx500d]

Bad throw. JMU has a chance.


Has a chance? They had one bad series. I still think Weber is on borrowed time

[centennial]

I think that guy got drafted late last year.

[th0m]

We dont really have a bruiser fullback no.

[Lorne_Malvo]

Told ya..

[jmuwishyouhadadukedog]

I think that guy got drafted late last year.

Our #1 RB went out early in the season due to a torn achilles (Cardon Johnson)

[mmiller_34]

BIG sack.

[Reign of Terrier]

JMU playcalling is not respecting Weber's strengths, namely the pass rush. How many sacks is that? 4?

[cx500d]

Thats the only way to beat Schor is to literally BEAT Schor

[Lorne_Malvo]

Thats the only way to beat Schor is to literally BEAT Schor

Lol, I tend to agree.

[Reign of Terrier]

bad bad bad playcalling.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Weber State has really rattled Schor. I've never seen him this "lost"! He's doing a lot of chucking...

[centennial]

Thats the only way to beat Schor is to literally BEAT Schor

Even if JMU escapes tonight Schor will not be 100%. He is taking a lot of hits.

I like how Weber just makes big plays and then walk back and get set to make another without a drawn out flamboyant celebration every time.

[cx500d]

bad bad bad playcalling.


Yeah, from Weber....Using our 2016 Rush 3 defense we used against EWU

[gofurman]

JMU is an undisciplined team. And that coach doesn't know how to play call under pressure.

Thats the ex-Citadel coach Houston ... Dude can coach (obviously, he has SoCon titles at Citadel and won CAA twice immediately at JMU). And a national title in first year beating NDSU AT NDSU.

BUT I agree doesn't seem to have much going tonight. That said, Weber has a great D - I think that's how they got here

[grizband]

Weber just tripled their total yardage on one play.I was honestly about to write the same post.

Almost picked Weber as an upset, but didn't honestly believe it could happen...Still lotsof time though

To be honest with you, even if JMU wins this one, I think their mental toughness is in question.

They just haven't been the same since Weber took the lead

[mmiller_34]

I have a feeling this 4th QTR is going to be nuts.

They've been "off" all night. That series before half was brutal with time management.

[No_Skill]

I sense a pattern in Weber's first down plays.

[mmiller_34]

This QB run is going to bust one for about 25 yards soon.

Big holding call there.

[cx500d]

Bad hold!

Meh, not a late hit. Good no call.

[centennial]

What did I say, they will start bunching up against man. At least they had some offense.

[Professor Chaos]

A lot of hand fighting between the JMU DB and Weber WR on the back end of that 3rd down heave. Dangerous considering how flag happy this officiating crew is.

[mmiller_34]

What is with the bouncy camera?

I was wondering about that too.

is it windy? Or is that the stadium shaking? Or does the cameraman/woman just suck.

[Bisonator]

JMU with great field position. You get the sense its now or never

I think one camera in the endzone just doesnt have a very sturdy tripod or something, that camera always shakes

[cx500d]

It was just a matter of time for JMU....Weber, outside of one play, has done nothing offensively.

[mmiller_34]

BOOM. Just like that.

[centennial]

Game is not over yet. Weber still has a chance.

[Reign of Terrier]

JMU on the ground, not with Schor, has controlled this game. No idea why Houston went away from that.

[Bison56]

Weber defenders over perusing on the TD run.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Cantwell can't force something now. Still plenty of time....

I think he will come back to it now.

JMU's defense gave up 9 TDs in their first 12 games. They've given up 3 tonight so far (although one was on a very short field).

Weber's offense showing some sustained success. It's cliche but this may come down to who has the ball last.

Lucky. That could have been ruled a fumble.

Why is JMU doing no huddle? They should be trying to sustain a long drive and chew up clock

JMU should just run the jet sweep.

[jmuwishyouhadadukedog]

Going for 3 was absolutely the right call. 3rd and 20 is a low chance play. We're only down 1 now and even if they score a TD, we can tie it by going for two.

Need a stop now (that goes without saying).

This is awesome for Weber State, but it also kinda hurts for me to watch, knowing that we were a very similar team. I'm not saying that Western would be doing this well against JMU, or even that we would have gotten past Southern Utah...but I just see a lot of "this could have been us" in this game. Doesn't help that they are a very similar team to what WIU had this year, so I see a lot of things they're doing that we would be doing and even a few passes that Cantwell isn't making that I know McGuire->Acklin would have hit all day.

Go back and watch more games with Cantwell. As someone who has seen a lot of Big Sky games this season, he is one of the main reasons they tied for the conference title and are in the quarterfinals. Looking good is a lot tougher when you're playing against one of the best defenses in the country.
