Very good job special teams for Bulldogs after that hiccup earlier in the game that put Wisco in good field position...that turned the field and now El Cid needs to take advantage of what they got going on...

oh man i got it, sweet check it out another team that can roll with the punches from the "big guys" good job DAWGS! Keep it up yall....

i wonder how many people made the trip up to WISC?

[AlphaSigMD]

Very impressive. That was an amazing 1st half by the citadel! I know you don't just want a moral victory now, but you certainly have done FCS and the SOCON proud already. Good luck in the 2nd half!

[BULLDOG8180]

21 - 21 at the half

[kick29]

How is the defense of the citadel looking this year?

[Peems]

does anyone have the yahoo link to the game?

I remember back in the day when we had to do things ourselves. Rough times.

[citdog]

Our Boys are MAGNIFICENT! Show thw world how big the FCS schmeckle really is!

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

If The Citadel can win this, college gameday should do their Novermber 3rd show in Charleston! xlolx xlolx

[OL FU]

Hopefully hear this score the Furman boys will step it up.



go Dogsxthumbsupx

Don't hold your breath. xthumbsupx xwhistlex

[Franks Tanks]

Watching this game on the Big Ten network--- Citadel is every bit as athletic as Wiscoso, this is getting interesting.

[AlphaSigMD]

Two thoughts:


1. I wonder how many references Coach Bielema made to Appalachian State in his peptalk at the half. Probably quite a few in phrases such as "do you want to be the laughing stock of the college football world like Michigan?". It would be interesting to know...

2. I wonder how many fans in Ann Arbor are listening intently at their tailgates in the misery loves company bandwagon...

[NDSUFREAK]

Lets take another Big Ten team down!!!
FCS OWNS THE BIG TEN!

[DuckDuckGriz]

I smell a boycott of the Southern Conference by the Big Ten...

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

Keep it up, Cid!!

[CSUBUCDAD]

Go Dogs. Put a butt whooping on them damn yankees.

[Jerbearasu]

I smell a boycott of the Southern Conference by the Big Ten...

If NDSU takes down Minnesota later this year the Big 10 may just boycott the FCS altogether... If they were smart they would join the FCS so they would gain some credibility!xthumbsupx

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

Touchdown UW....28-21 Wisconsin.

[OL FU]

Don't hold your breath. xthumbsupx xwhistlex

Considering the Griz history against I-As you should understandxnodx

[Peems]

If NDSU takes down Minnesota later this year the Big 10 may just boycott the FCS altogether... If they were smart they would join the FCS so they would gain some credibility!xthumbsupx

and actually have a chance at winning a national championshipxnodx

They'll have to start playing NAIA teams instead...heaven forbid one of them play a Mt Union or a Grand Valley...

[GreatAppSt]

Big time homer ref call to help wis get the score.xmadx

[bodoyle]

Keep up the good work cit

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

INT UW gets ball in Cit territory...is The Citadel's backup QB in?

[Cleets]

is this game on-line or TV only...!!!!

[JMad03]

On the Big Ten Network

[Cleets]

On the Big Ten Network

weird.!!
I can watch Montana griz games on-line but not Wisconsin..?

Bass-akwards if you ask me

[PaladinFan]

So, can the Southern Conference just move up en masse and push down the sunbelt?

[walliver]

So, can the Southern Conference just move up en masse and push down the sunbelt?

How can you push down something that's already on the bottom?

The SoCon should hold out for a BCS bid.

Now, if the Confederate ghosts will just come out now to help El Cid.

[Casey_Orourke]

and actually have a chance at winning a national championshipxnodx

Think they could give the Griz or Appy some real competition?

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

End of 3rd, still 31-21 Wisconsin. Where was Cid's O in this quarter?xconfusedx

[BULLDOG8180]

seem to be conservative in the 2nd half

It might just be me, but seems a lot of penalties, especially holding calls are NOT being called. I know the rules are loose, but when a guy is holding onto a jersey and can't get away---.

Anyway a good first half, but couldn't sustain it.

45-21 wisc.

[BULLDOG8180]

The Citadel picks up a safety and a field goal.

45-26. 6 min left

[BULLDOG8180]

oops didn't get a safety.

but picked up a late TD.

final 45-31

respectable, but after being even at 21, kinda wanted a W.

Great game by The Citadel. Wisconsin has a little more ammo than Michigan did against App St.

Good job El Cid! xthumbsupx

[Casey_Orourke]

It is usually near the end of the game where the depth of an FBS team becomes apparent over an FCS team. That being said, the ability of El Cid to play the game they did speaks volumes about their program.

[CID1990]

Man, I am really happy with our offense. Duran Lawson has surpassed all the billing so far this year. Tory Cooper also has a great motor.

Our lack of depth on defense hurt us, but if we had been able to do a little better in the 3rd quarter in the field position battle, this likely would have been a one-score game at the end.

All in all, a well played game. This makes me really excited for SoCon play.

[citdog]

i am very proud of our boys, they fought their hearts out and as always are a credit to our institution!

[terrierbob]

Way to go, Bulldogs.

[AlphaSigMD]

Agreed. I didn't think that the citadel would do this well against Wisconsin. Congrats, because they certainly did a service to the SOCON and all of FCS.

the Yosef vs Spike matchup in Charleston could be a really big one.

[BlueHen86]

The Citadel must really suck to lose to a Big Ten school.;)

Just kidding, The Citadel did themselves proud today.xthumbsupx

[Zoo]

I'm a Badger fan, and I must say the Bulldogs gave me a huge scare, but they played their hearts out, and for that, I tip my hat to them, they deserve all the credit for playing Wisconsin as good as they did. :D

Godo job Bulldogs.

[AppHokie]

What a first half. Seeing Citadel makes me believe once they earn a playoff spot this year, they will be quite a force. They had plays on the dline to get total penetration today...quite impressive.

[travelinman67]

The Citadel stood tall and proud today.

[ncman071]

i was at the App game but i heard the score and all i can say is..wow. Citadel evidentally has a really solid team this year. I hope ASU brings their A game when we play them. Congrats on the performance. man, SOCON was almost 2-0 vs Big Ten.

[james_lawfirm]

the Yosef vs Spike matchup in Charleston could be a really big one.

Yep. It appears that both teams could do well against the rest of the conference, setting up a late season match up in Charleston. I've already got tickets.

Citdog you have been clling it for a while now. Good coaching and players doing the rights things. The Cit is for real and I hope i can be in Charleston for a great game. Maybe we can have a beer together?

[ngineer]

Kept following the score all day--THE Citadel has a lot to be proud of..way to fight....You guys are becoming a force to be reckoned with...How's it feel to have a 'Union General' (Higgins from Lehigh) leading the 'Reconstruction'??;) :D xthumbsupx

[Go...gate]

Great game by The Citadel! xthumbsupx
