[Tod]

Ooh. Huge UD run!

[appfan2008]

ud is finally playing well...

[terrierbob]

This may have been mentioned on this thread, but it doesn't look like a sell-out.

[appfan2008]

nice rush chart...

[DuckDuckGriz]

Ref's got a bad mustache, shave it or fix it up.

KC Keeler is a Peter North look-alike :p

[Intrepid]

WOW

[appfan2008]

touchdown pass broken up... and was almost sacked...

[Rob Iola]

SIU 2 saves the day - for now...

[DuckDuckGriz]

ud is finally playing well...

Flacco and Cuff are playing well.

The UD offensive line is struggling

[appfan2008]

2nd and 10 on the 16... but flag first...

[patssle]

Great offensive play...great defensive play

[Intrepid]

The Hens will win it from the air...tellin you...

[Rob Iola]

SIU trotting out the DSU 12 man defense...

[appfan2008]

2nd and 5 after 12 men penalty on the 11 ... run for cuff ot the 9...

[appfan2008]

[Intrepid]

[appfan2008]

ud on top for first time tonight...

[Purple For Life]

*looks at the clock* Well, that took a while.

[Rob Iola]

Um, phone call for Mr. Flacco - it's Sunday calling...

[DuckDuckGriz]

UD had 3 WRs at Flacco's disposal to that side alone and SIU was overmatched

[FCSFAN]

UD leads SIU 14-10 7:31 3Q

[TheValleyRaider]

Delaware finally finishes off the drive, Flacco escapes pressure to find his man, TOUCHDOWN Hens. PAT is up and GOOD

14-10 UD
7:31 3rd

[Chi Panther]

first half errors gonna cost SIU....xoopsx

[appfan2008]

14-10 UD
7:31 Q3

[Rob Iola]

Is it too early to book the Corey Hart tribute band for Chattanooga?

[DuckDuckGriz]

Is it too early to book the Corey Hart tribute band for Chattanooga?

Yes.

[mtoliver]

first half errors gonna cost SIU....xoopsx



That's what I've been afraid to tell myself... xnonono2x

[Purple For Life]

Is it too early to book the Corey Hart tribute band for Chattanooga?

...



...



...



...



...what?!?

[FCSFAN]

here comes the Heisman stuff............

[TheValleyRaider]

UD kicking off, short, taken at the 20, up to the 38. Flag on the play, and it's Holding on SIU. Ball moves back to the 11. 1st and 10 Salukis

14-10 UD
7:24 3rd

[DuckDuckGriz]

Guys the Heisman presentation is tonight, FYI xreadx

[RadMann]

Yes too early... Corey Hart = Sunglasses at Night...

[Rob Iola]

SIU killing themselves with penalties...

[FCSFAN]

and more Heisman stuff.............

[TheValleyRaider]

...



...



...



...



...what?!?

KC's so cool, he wears "Sunglasses at Night"

[DuckDuckGriz]

Easy PI call

[FCSFAN]

Pam is so good at chopping the Heisman stuff off!

[Purple For Life]

Yes too early... Corey Hart = Sunglasses at Night...

I remembered that after I posted. xoopsx

That was a basic mistake...shouldn't have failed that with all my music knowledge...don't tell the Man. He would laugh at me! xoopsx

[FCSFAN]

UD leads SIU 14-10 6:08 3Q

[mtoliver]

late flag on the PI... I had already come out of my chair and made at least three 'flag-throwing' motions before it came out

[Rob Iola]

SIU needs a TD here - FG not enough, as Flacco's in shootout mode

[DuckDuckGriz]

late flag on the PI... I had already come out of my chair and made at least three 'flag-throwing' motions before it came out

xlolx xlolx

I got so mad for a second then remembered I don't have a team in this game

[Purple For Life]

xlolx xlolx

I got so mad for a second then remembered I don't have a team in this game

LMAO!

[Rob Iola]

Ya know - Pam Ward doesn't suck too bad - anyone who knows their DE geography's ok in my book...

[mtoliver]

xlolx xlolx

I got so mad for a second then remembered I don't have a team in this game


Haha.. me too as I am an App fan :o

[great2bmtneer]

Oh, is there a Heisman trophy presentation tonight? Somehow i missed that thru the last 48 hours of nonstop prostituting of it from ESPN.

Great game...it'll come down to wire!!

[Purple For Life]

late flag on the PI... I had already come out of my chair and made at least three 'flag-throwing' motions before it came out

Slightly OT--DirecTV sent Man a flag for having Sunday Ticket...and it has been thrown on more than a few bad calls! xlolx xnodx

[DuckDuckGriz]

Ya know - Pam Ward doesn't suck too bad - anyone who knows their DE geography's ok in my book...

She's been very good each time in Missoula too

[TheValleyRaider]

On 3rd and 7, SIU's pass comes up just short at the UD 30, and the Salukis are going for it. The run easily gets the 1st down to the UD 25

14-10 UD
4:36 3rd

[FCSFAN]

UD leads SIU 14-10 4:17 3Q

[eddyg]

timeout delaware :-/

[swaghook]

UD wasting time outs

[TheValleyRaider]

Delaware must not have liked something, they just used their 2nd TimeOut. Only 1 TO left and it's still the 3rd quarter, we'll see if this hurts them

4:17 3rd

[Rob Iola]

Nick Hill gets 5 - Edwards would've gained 15...

[DuckDuckGriz]

UD wasting time outs

You do realize BB is beating you in posts now

[Rob Iola]

I know I know - man crush on AE...

[asucrutch23]

Nick Hill gets 5 - Edwards would've gained 15...

CoCo Hillary would've gotten 25...

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

......you have to expect the Heisman hype since it is presented tonight...

I would like to hear about the Payton award....etc..

[DuckDuckGriz]

I know I know - man crush on AE...

Edwards woulda ran it for a TD then taken a lap around the track before the whistle even blew

[Rob Iola]

Um - that was a stupid play call...

[mtoliver]

botched snap...NO GOOD

[Intrepid]

WOW...

[FCSFAN]

I know I know - man crush on AE...Shaven armpit mancrush! xlolx

[swaghook]

You do realize BB is beating you in posts now
Do you know any man that can chat more then a woman?

[eddyg]

perfect snap but the hold is fumbled

[TheValleyRaider]

Broken play on the reverse there, that nearly was a disaster. Instead it'll be 4th and i at the UD 23.

40 yd. FG attempt is BOTCHED! Snap is fumbled by the holder and tackled at the 36. 1st and 10 Hens

14-10 UD
2:50 3rd

[asucrutch23]

Edwards woulda ran it for a TD then taken a lap around the track before the whistle even blew

Then flipped into both endzones without being touched...

[FCSFAN]

AE would have run it for a TD like he did when App St beat Michigan in the BIG HOUSE!

[DuckDuckGriz]

Do you know any man that can chat more then a woman?

Just Old Montana State Grad

[Purple For Life]

Bag it up, that's a SACK!

[Intrepid]

THAT PASS WAS COMPLETED...

[Rob Iola]

I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can so I can
Watch you weave then breathe your story lines
And I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can so I can
Keep track of the visions in my eyes

[DuckDuckGriz]

Then flipped into both endzones without being touched...

I would hope for a penalty for those flips xnonox

[Purple For Life]

Just Old Montana State Grad

I've met a few in my day but they don't come to mind right now.

I really outtalk quite a number of people... :o

[TCisMYhero]

Wow, did that remind anybody of the 39 yard completion that he had last weekend?? Got away from 2 guys and just bombs it.

[FCSFAN]

UD leads SIU 14-10 1:48 3Q

[asucrutch23]

I would hope for a penalty for those flips xnonox

Yeah he cost us 15 then we had 2 illegal procedures and kicked off from our own 5... LOL

[DuckDuckGriz]

Wow, did that remind anybody of the 39 yard completion that he had last weekend?? Got away from 2 guys and just bombs it.

Do I sense some post traumatic stress syndrome? xlolx

[Purple For Life]

THAT PASS WAS COMPLETED...

I THOUGHT IT WAS A SACK

[Purple For Life]

I had a comment and forgot it. :o

[asucrutch23]

Idiot

[Intrepid]

Dang

[Purple For Life]

WOO HOO!

[TheValleyRaider]

Flacco nearly made a great play out of nothing, but the pass is disrupted. UD goes 3 and out. Punt is barely gotten off, bounces to a stop at the SIU 48. Flag on the play, will be Running into the Kicker. Repeating the play, this punt is drilled, and so is the returner, that will be Kick-Catch Interference. Good yardage for SIU here. 1st and 10 Salukis at their 44

14-10 UD
1:31 3rd

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

OUCH...huge penalty

[DuckDuckGriz]

Idiot

When you have a chance to lay someone's ass out it's easy to forget the little things

[Rob Iola]

SIU needs to show that they're a championship team with this drive...

[FCSFAN]

UD leads SIU 14-10 1:20 3Q

[DuckDuckGriz]

Flacco was the flavor of the half I guess for the commentator.

[asucrutch23]

When you have a chance to lay someone's ass out it's easy to forget the little things

You got that right... same goes for roughing the punter...gotta love taking a shot at that kicker

[Purple For Life]

CEDAR FALLS WOO HOO!

[Rob Iola]

Are UD's DEs purposely losing contain?

[FCSFAN]

UD leads SIU 14-10 end of 3Q

[swaghook]

Is UD D crumbling? SIU moving well.

[DuckDuckGriz]

CEDAR FALLS WOO HOO!

Wow

[TheValleyRaider]

SIU moving the ball into Delaware territory as the clock runs out. They'll have a 1st and 10 when the 4th quarter begins

Delaware 14
Southern Illinois 10
End 3rd

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

....switching gears here........with the commercial......

I guess ASU has finalized their travel plans today..best hotels, etc.....

[Intrepid]

Is UD D crumbling? SIU moving well.

They've been up and down....

[swaghook]

They've been up and down....being on the down going into the 4th could cost them the game.

[TCisMYhero]

Seeing that shot of Keeler just gave me the incentive to root against that puke. Go Salukis!

[Intrepid]

Holy Cow!!!

[FCSFAN]

UD player #55 EJECTED!

[TheValleyRaider]

Wow what a start to the quarter xeekx

Ejected for "Slugging"

#55 Tim Prindle

[Intrepid]

Penalty and ejection...no no

[swaghook]

player ejected

[appstate38]

Wow #55 gets ejected for UD

[Rob Iola]

this game's getting weird...

[appstate38]

Low scoring game is kinda odd, would have expected more points than this.

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

xconfusedx xconfusedx

[mcveyrl]

Wow what a start to the quarter xeekx

Ejected for "Slugging"

#55 Tim Prindle

He's giving him the business!!!

[BigApp]

does he now have to sit out the next game?

[Intrepid]

hahaha...incomplete

[Rob Iola]

UD's secondary has made some great plays...

[FCSFAN]

Wonder if that ejection would affect him for the next game if UD advances?

[patssle]

holy shiat

[BigApp]

TRICKERATION!

[FCSFAN]

FG fake

[Purple For Life]

Wow

Sorry, I just love CF...

[FCSFAN]

try it again

[mcveyrl]

wow, that completed pass might give them 3 points anyway...

EDIt: Nope.

[FCSFAN]

UD leads SIU 14-10 13:57 4Q

[Rob Iola]

just plain weird...

[TheValleyRaider]

SIU's offense seemed to lose their momentum with the quarter break. 4th and 10 for the Salukis. 34 yd FG attempt is a fumbled snap again! Throws for the End zone, TOUCHDOWN SIU!!

Flag on the play, Ineligible Receiver Downfield, repeat 4th down


39 yd attempt now is WIDE RIGHT, just pushed it a bit

14-10 SIU
13:51 4th

[Purple For Life]

Man, is this game weird, or what???

[patssle]

Man...either of these teams are going to be huge underdogs to Appy.

[Tod]

Man...either of these teams are going to be huge underdogs to Appy.

If they play like this, yes!

[FCSFAN]

Man...either of these teams are going to be huge underdogs to Appy.Like JMU, EWU, Wofford and GSU huh?

[appfan2008]

I feel like SIU is just shooting themselves in the foot all game tonight... they are playing well but not putting points on the board

[Rob Iola]

If UD wins this will be more painful to SIU than 2003 was...

[appfan2008]

we beat jmu :)

[patssle]

Like JMU, Wofford and GSU huh?

Those teams arn't in the NC.

[appfan2008]

2nd and 9 UD on their own 24 yard line pass complete to the 30 yard line

[FCSFAN]

Those teams arn't in the NC.Neither are SIU or UD ........ yet

[Rob Iola]

Can Omar take over the 4th quarter?

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

Wonder if that ejection would affect him for the next game if UD advances?

I don't think so. GSU had a player ejected from a game a couple of years ago and he was right back the following week.

I really doubt that this is something that you are required to suspend players over. What did he do, anyways? xconfusedx

[FCSFAN]

we beat jmu :)beat might be a strong word ;)

[appfan2008]

3rd and 2 on the 30... big play for both teams... weird formation for UD... pass interference out near midfield...

[Mountaineer]

beat might be a strong word ;)

xrolleyesx xbawlingx xlolx

[appstate38]

Sloppy play by both teams at this point. Stark contrast to the game last night.

[FCSFAN]

UD leads SIU 14-10 12:22 4Q

[Intrepid]

Pass interference...

[appfan2008]

after the penalty... 1st and 10 on the 45... cuff up the middle for three to the 48 yard line

[FCSFAN]

Strong defenses make offenses look sloppy

[appfan2008]

2nd and 7 on the 48 pass caught by cuff over midfield...

[Rob Iola]

Luv Omar's spin move...

[FCSFAN]

Omar time?

[FCSFAN]

Omar time.

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

Strong defenses make offenses look sloppy

UD's offense wasn't great against Navy, I know that much. And ASU's offense is more athletic than Navy's.

[Rob Iola]

Replay of the 4th at UNI with Cuff getting 1st downs...

[appstate38]

Flacco is as mobile as a statue at this point.

[great2bmtneer]

Man, Deleware's getting a lot of calls in this game...i guess the committee is sweating bullets over all 5 CAA boys gettin' takin' out..maybe decided to give the ref's some early christmas bonuses

[patssle]

Deleware O-line playing poorly right now...Flacco has no protection.

[FCSFAN]

UD leads SIU 14-10 10:58 4Q

[Rob Iola]

UD's offense wasn't great against Navy, I know that much. And ASU's offense is more athletic than Navy's.

Um, what?
You mean UD's defense, right?

[Mountaineer]

Deleware O-line playing poorly right now...Flacco has no protection.

That's defense. xthumbsupx

[TCisMYhero]

Man, Deleware's getting a lot of calls in this game...i guess the committee is sweating bullets over all 5 CAA boys gettin' takin' out..maybe decided to give the ref's some early christmas bonuses

Come on....

[Intrepid]

UD's offense wasn't great against Navy, I know that much. And ASU's offense is more athletic than Navy's.

I know what you mean...

[appfan2008]

big third down... incomplete

[Mountaineer]

17-10 Hens!

[appfan2008]

field goal good...

[Rob Iola]

That, SIU, is how you execute a FG attempt.

[TheValleyRaider]

After a few close calls, UD finally stopped on 3rd Down. FG attempt upcoming, 47 yd attempt. Kick is up and GOOD

17-10 UD
10:09 4th

[FCSFAN]

UD leads SIU 17-10 10:09 4Q

[appfan2008]

delaware fans get ready to book your tickets to chattanooga

[Rob Iola]

That was a big-time kick...

[patssle]

delaware fans get ready to book your tickets to chattanooga

You kidding? Theres 10 minutes left.

[Intrepid]

SIU got make a TD or else it's over...

[patssle]

holy shiat

[swaghook]

You kidding? Theres 10 minutes left.

And that's only if they don't see OT

[swaghook]

delaware fans get ready to book your tickets to chattanooga
You may have just jinxed them?xeyebrowx

[Pards Rule]

Holy *****...It looks like Delaware thought he was going to be tackled by someone else.

[Tod]

That was awesome!!! Hopefully, he didn't step out...

He didn't!

Beautiful!!

xbowx xbowx xbowx

[mcveyrl]

Wow...

[Rob Iola]

What a great game!

[skinny_uncle]

Didn't he do that at App a couple of years ago?

[FCSFAN]

Tied at 17 9:52 4Q

[TheValleyRaider]

UD kickoff taken at the 12, he gets away! Turner goes in for the TOUCHDOWN! Big play for SIU!

They're reviewing to see if he stepped out of bounds.....sure doesn't look like it to me.....call is upheld!

PAT is up and GOOD and we are tied

17-17
9:52 4th

[patssle]

Umm the games tied...fans holding up Chatty bound signs?

[Polar Bear]

go skinny dogs go

[Rob Iola]

New game - 10 minutes to go - UD with the ball - who wants to go to Chattanooga?

[Intrepid]

Don't freakin kick to Turner again!

[TheValleyRaider]

SIU kicking off now. Taken at the 8, tackled at the 25. 1st and 10 Hens

17-17
9:45 4th

[Purple For Life]

YES YES YES YES I WAS JUMPING AROUND MY APARTMENT!!!

Man is DVRing the game. Dammit, I HATE when he does that!!!

[Rob Iola]

Apparently Flacco's unflappable
He's a transfer from Pitt you know
If you didn't know - Heisman presentation tonight

[Mountaineer]

Apparently Flacco's unflappable
He's a transfer from Pitt you know
If you didn't know - Heisman presentation tonight

xlolx xlolx

[Intrepid]

WOW...Nice 4th conversion

[Rob Iola]

Don't freakin kick to Turner again!

I would hope all KO's from here out go OB...

[AlphaSigMD]

I wish they'd show the replay on that again, i wonder if that was a catch and fumble...maybe by NFL rules...

[Tod]

Huge play by UD! 23 yards. Flacco is awesome!

I wonder if lack of time outs could come back to haunt UD. Obviously, too early to tell...

[Rob Iola]

Flacco wild on the deep outs..

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

I hope this game doesn't go into overtime and interrupt ESPN's 30 minute pre-Heisman presentation show...

*sarcasm*

[FCSFAN]

Tied at 17 8:28 4Q

[Rob Iola]

Heck of a catch by Agnone..

[FCSFAN]

Rogers flips Love

[Rob Iola]

Uhll - TE-sized LT - doing a fantastic job on SIU DE...

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

Take down.......2 pts.....

[Intrepid]

#8 should be playing in WWE

[Purple For Life]

Apparently Flacco's unflappable
He's a transfer from Pitt you know
If you didn't know - Heisman presentation tonight

AHAHAHAHA!

[FCSFAN]

Omar dropped the ball?

[Rob Iola]

Omar Omar Omar...

[Tod]

Cool tackle.

I have to leave for work in 10 minutes! Pick up the pace, people!!

[HLecter]

How big is Flacco? They're bouncing off him.

Unreal KO return for SIU

[Rob Iola]

Nice drive by UD - good response to the return...

[Intrepid]

Watch this TD here...

[FCSFAN]

Flacco's unflappable
He's a transfer from Pitt you know
If you didn't know - Heisman presentation tonight
and Flacco once visited in Michigan
who App St beat in the BIG HOUSE this year

[mtoliver]

Take down.......2 pts.....



5 in freestyle...

[patssle]

Flacco is getting fellatio from ESPN

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

..........some heat on that ball.....

[FCSFAN]

UD leads SIU 20-17 6:58 4Q

[TheValleyRaider]

Delaware responds to the KO very well, but SIU is able to keep them out of the end zone. 24 yd. FG attempt for UD is close, but squeezes through, GOOD

20-17 UD
6:58 4th

[Tod]

FG UD.

20-17, UD

Good, but weird, game!

[mcveyrl]

Wow, lots of drops by UD...

Judging from comments from UD fans this year, I think that's the norm, though...

[TCisMYhero]

I'm going to fathead.com. Be back later.

[Intrepid]

Okay...I would like to retract my earlier statement about the Hens winning by three TDs...I now reduce it to 1 TD...

[Rob Iola]

Does SIU want to win this game - here's where they have to prove it...

[TheValleyRaider]

UD to kick it off, we'll see if they avoid Turner this time. The kick is squibbed, returned up to the 37. 1st and 10 Salukis

20-17 UD
6:53 4th

[Purple For Life]

I'm going to fathead.com. Be back later.

Ha ha, no doubt.

[Tod]

Good field position for SIU, but their O hasn't scored since the 1st Qtr...

[Tod]

I'm going to fathead.com. Be back later.

Already went. :o :o :o

Thinking of getting a Superman fathead for my oldest grandson, whose name is Kal-el (Superman's name on Krypton).

[Rob Iola]

huge 3rd down here

[FCSFAN]

UD leads SIU 20-17 5:00 4Q

[mtoliver]

3rd $ 5 at the SIU 30 4:48 to play. TO SIU, their first

[Intrepid]

Timeout SIU

[Rob Iola]

been a great, if ugly, game...

[Pards Rule]

How did White come to go to SIU uinstead of nearby Newark, Delaware. He's from Hammonton (south NJ) - blueberry capital of the world!

[TheValleyRaider]

SIU wants to be sure of their playcall, uses their First TimeOut. 3rd and 5 upcoming

20-17 UD
4:49 4th

[mtoliver]

4th & 4 at the SIU 29

[Rob Iola]

terrible play call!!

[mistersykes]

"Its nice to have a true national champion."

[Pards Rule]

Sacked...

[mcveyrl]

Wow...the play call on 3rd down is really what cost them...

[Intrepid]

terrible play call!!

Indeed!

[patssle]

WAs the kicker unable to make that kick?

[mtoliver]

Holy coverage sack...
turnover on downs

[Rob Iola]

boy - he wanted to run for it - designed QB run all the way...
