Cal Poly at Wisconsin

[Musty]

Dally to Barden...out of bounds at the 36, clock stops at :25

[Edge316007]

Exactly where I am at in my thinking...

call me selfish I guess

Ditto, except a CP win pushes App to 3, not out of the seeds.

[malibudude]

CP ball on Wisc 47. 39 seconds left. 29-29

[JALMOND]

I have to think, win or lose, with this performance, Cal Poly should get a seed. If not, the deck was stacked against them to begin with.

[Stang Fever]

Good catch Ramses!! great run... will the kicker make me eat it??? I pray he does

[4th and What?]

I think UNI is the only school that isn't pulling for CP 100%

I can think of 1 other. It starts with a W

[Syntax Error]

I think UNI is the only school that isn't pulling for CP 100%Maybe SIU because they should get a seed over UNI

[Musty]

Dally quick slant to Barden, inc, 2nd down and 10, :23 seconds, 36 yd line

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

Come on, poly kicker! You might be able to redeem yourself.

PWN 'EM!!!

[CharlestonAppFan]

Ditto, except a CP win pushes App to 3, not out of the seeds.

won't happen but I can see them as a 3 or 4

[Musty]

Dally scrambles to the 29, TO, :14 seconds

[clenz]

Holy hell...the game just came on my TV! I get to see it now!

[Syntax Error]

Good catch Ramses!! great run... will the kicker make me eat it??? I pray he doeswhat, you are enjoying mystifying us xnonox

[Stang Fever]

Can the kicker win the game for us??? FCS everyone pray with me

[4th and What?]

We know your kicker isn't accurate, but what about range?

[DuckDuckGriz]

Dally is a GENERAL xnodx

[Musty]

I was wrong, that was CP's final TO

[LehighFan11]

Holy hell...the game just came on my TV! I get to see it now!

We know your kicker isn't accurate, but what about range?Range doesn't matter if he can't get it through the bars

[Maroons]

Score, time and possession anyone?

[Musty]

Dally for Barden...high, inc....4th and 2, :12

[LehighFan11]

ok lining up

[gbhmt]

he made a 35 yader already in this game

this would be 46

[Syntax Error]

game tied at 29

[clenz]

This may be the only time freezing will change the outcome of the kick. Making the CP kicker may throw any confidence he may have had

[catamount man]

Watching it now. LET'S GO STANGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AppChicago]

Got it now! Big Ten Network!

[Stang Fever]

We are going to kick it...

[LehighFan11]

[Musty]

Jake West's first attempt of the year

That was so bad I can't describe it

[Stang Fever]

Dally should have been on the Payton List

who's seed does Poly take if they win this game?Nova's? Maybe if they even lose this game.

[Musty]

Wisc wins the toss...will start on D

[4th and What?]

Overtime is not where CP wants to be with this kicker. Gotta get a touchdown and hold em. 2-3 OT's and CP is in trouble.

[Edge316007]

who's seed does Poly take if they win this game?

Villanova/SIU/UNI

Should take those even if they lose. JMU, App, Montana, CP in some order regardless of the outcome

[clenz]

Poly needs to score a TD to win, because we sure as hell know they won't win it with FGs

[NC Aggie]

KICKING GAME!! we will be holding tryouts next week... LADYS and MEN please come out and try to kick for us

We feel your pain Reminds me of the UCD - Stanford game....UCD with 3 missed easy field goals.....but won.

[Stang Fever]

I wish I could stay positive but I am going to say we loose... unless we get some type of turnover this game will be over...

[gbhmt]

I don't think Wisconsin will be able to stop them from only 25 yards out.

Didn't Texas Tech get a kicker from their fans earlier this year?

CMON MISS PLEASE

The kid should break his damn leg and do us a damn favor.

[clenz]

Poly is trying to freeze the PAT!

NICE!

[Hoyadestroya85]

wait did the kicker miss a third extra point?

[Stang Fever]

good game Badgers. We simply dont have a kicker who can make an extra point. Two games this season he cost us the game...

[Syntax Error]

so Mr. Damn Kicker cost them both of their losses?

[UNIFAN]

wisconsin wins, long trip home for cal poly. They should be proud of how they played regardless.

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

@#$%&#@$% !!!!@!!

[LehighFan11]

That is so sad.

[Stang Fever]

wait did the kicker miss a third extra point?

Yes he did... I am sick.. I CAN NOT BELIEVE IT!!!

there goes our seed

[GrizFamily]

Bummer, Poly. But you represented FCS well today.

[malibudude]

Welled Played Stangs you did CP and FCS proud.

[4th and What?]

Nah, still a 4 seed. Unbelievable. While there is no excuse, you gotta feel for the kicker....

[gbhmt]

Yes he did... I am sick.. I CAN NOT BELIEVE IT!!!

there goes our seed

You should get one anyway.

[Hoyadestroya85]

You guys should be happy that you have a special player like Ramses Barden

[DuckDuckGriz]

Wow you gotta feel for that kicker.

[Edge316007]

Yes he did... I am sick.. I CAN NOT BELIEVE IT!!!

there goes our seed

A 1 point loss to a 7-5 FBS team solely due to a bad bad kicker? No, I think CP earned the 4 seed today.

[Shellin]

Reminds me a lot of the Oregon State vs LSU game a few years back where Serna missed 3 or 4 extra points and the Beavs lost to LSU in OT...pretty much the exact same script here actually.

[AppChicago]

Andrew Gardner is never getting laid again.

Great effort, Cal Poly.

[Fear The Beard]

This App Fan hopes you are on the other side of the bracket! Nice game Poly! We were pulling for you!

[uofmman1122]

I do not want to be that kicker right now...

Holy crap it must suck to be him...

[Appguy]

why didn't they just go for 2 at that point???????

[Syntax Error]

thanks CP, next week starts the second season

[Stang Fever]

so Mr. Damn Kicker cost them both of their losses?

YES!!!! are you kidding me??? OH MY GOD I AM SO PISSED OFF... we have to get a kicker on full scholarship... I gave him a pass on the missed field goals.. But who in the hell misses THREE EXTRA POINTS... must be some type of record

[Old Cat Fan]

Cal poly great job, tough loss, I posted in the UNH Maine thread that it would be good to play you guys in Durham. Well after this game, I don't want you guys near my Cats.

[gbhmt]

Andrew Gardner is never getting laid again.

Great effort, Cal Poly.

He will if he talks to a Wisconsin cheerleader.

[tingly]

I was thinking they should go for 2 since Wisconsin was the better team in the 2nd half, force the issue right away.

[Stang Fever]

A 1 point loss to a 7-5 FBS team solely due to a bad bad kicker? No, I think CP earned the 4 seed today.

I believe everyone sees thata we are for real... We have the best offense in the nation for a reason. We can score with the best of them

[hippy@GSU]

Good Job Cal Poly!!

[Syntax Error]

You guys should be happy that you have a special player like Ramses BardenDally is the star. 8/16/95/1 passing, 23/118 rushing - no INTs

[MSU_77]

Unreal. Great game Cal Poly!

[Screamin_Eagle174]

Wow you gotta feel for that kicker.

You do, and you don't. He's made some pretty easy ones this year... if you suck, you suck.


Sounds like CP should have had a kicking contest at halftime for free rent earlier in the season.... xoopsx

[jmufan999]

how big is that Ramses Barden kid? Jesus, he looks big! i only got to see OT, but that looked like a big boy to me.

great effort, not only will you not lose your seed, good chance you'll take the 3 seed i think. the committee will notice what happened today. great job.

[Screamin_Eagle174]

I do on the other hand feel for the Cal Poly team.... that type of loss really, really, hurts. That's even worse than our loss to Colorado.

[AppChicago]

He will if he talks to a Wisconsin cheerleader.

Wisco ladies are corn-fed and butter-fried. Big legs...

But hey... I guess it's better than nothin'.

[tingly]

I wanted Poly to go for it on 4th down, clock stops on the first down to move the chains, then spike it and see how much time is left. Tho that kick wasn't going through the uprights from 20 yards, let alone 45.

[4th and What?]

I'll start with the excuses.....

I couldn't make a PAT when it's 20 degrees either :P

[Stang Fever]

This one hurts I really feel like this game is going to hurt next week too.. Because loosing like that can take the wind right out of your sails

[Screamin_Eagle174]

This one hurts I really feel like this game is going to hurt next week too.. Because loosing like that can take the wind right out of your sails

Seriously... I feel for CP.

[appvette]

Much respect xbowx

[Old Cat Fan]

Not to rain on your parade, but no, they're not. Fresno was overrated, Ohio State was without Wells, Iowa sucks, MSU is also overrated. Then they got stomped by Penn State and lost to MICHIGAN.

Yeah a crappy 7-5 fbs team xrolleyesx

[Stang Fever]

Lets hope we can continue to play well next saturday... Cause I cant make the first round game and want to be there for the second round game

[Throw It To Ramses!!!]

NOOOOO why do we have such a crappy kicker!!!!!

Open tryouts on monday... please

2 losses, missed extra point, 28 yarder vs montana as time expired, 3 missed extra points vs wisconsin

Please seed us!

[nmatsen]

If you would have won today you would have had zero losses against a winning D-I team. Don't get me wrong. I feel for you very much, I really wish you would have pulled it out. That sucks. I remember when our kicker missed a field goal against Iowa State to lose a couple of years ago.

[slycat]

Congrats on a huge game. xbowx

[Silenoz]

Wow. Cal Poly should be undefeated right now

[Stang Fever]

I think we all moved past the missed field go against Montana.... but these 3 missed extra points is in another LEAGUE... its unforgivable

[appstate1998]

sounds like the coaches blew it. If you kicker has already missed 2 extra points, you go for two....fool me once shame on me, fool me twice etc.

[tingly]

I'd lay the ultimate responsibility on the coaching staff. If you don't want to miss 3 extra points or have good field goal range, recruit someone who can make them.

I wondered if the field was a little slippery or the holder had trouble gripping the ball in the below-freezing weather or if it was simple missed kicks.

[Stang Fever]

sounds like the coaches blew it. If you kicker has already missed 2 extra points, you go for two....fool me once shame on me, fool me twice etc.

This is in overtime... do you still go for two???

[tingly]

Yeah, it happens mostly when you're a definite underdog or your team is exhausted.

[bigappfan10]

CP would have moved past us to number two tomorrow...whew!

[charliej]

This one hurts I really feel like this game is going to hurt next week too.. Because loosing like that can take the wind right out of your sails


Was a great game,but I was thinking the same thing.

As long as they arent too banged up,they should be able to get pumped up for a playoff game.;)

[appstate1998]

This is in overtime... do you still go for two???

absolutely. If my kicker has already proven he can't make the kick then I go for 2. If I get it, then I force my opponent to go for 2 and we can end the game there. Especially if the weather was as bad as has been said. Also looks like you guys were very effective running the ball, and with a qb who is having such a great game running....going for 2 with some play action would probably have been the best call

[WyomingGrizFan]

I'm with 'appstate1998' on this one for sure; I mean, hey dude!!! What's Ramses Barden doing? Standing around doing nothing or something? He's only about 6'6" in the Red Zone for crying out loud!!! A two-point conversion (a try at the very least) would have been a given; well, almost, but a neat little jump ball could have netted something at least, couldn't it? (Damn. He looks better than Vincent Jackson out of Northern Colorado a couple years back and he's now a starter for the NFL Chargers this year!!!) Doesn't show much confidence from the coaching staff in one powerful offense. It boggles my ever-luvin' friggin' mind!!!!

[Throw It To Ramses!!!]

Wow. Cal Poly should be undefeated right now

Should be. But we're not. Shows how important it is to have the complete package.

[ASUMountaineer]

Cal Poly fans, a guy on the Michigan State message board, Spartan Tailgate, predicted yesterday you guys would win and put $100 on an offshore betting site they would. Unfortunately, for him, he would have won $3000. xlolx Hate you guys didn't win, it sucks when it is because of a player who is not in the trenches.

[petethepenguin15]

Haha funny game. Wisconsin the underdog in my book wins because Cal Poly can't make Pats. Wow that kicker ended up missing THREE extra points thats insanely sad. One is bad enough but to miss three and end up lossing by one point that just sucks.

[LehighFan11]

First off, Congrats to Poly for taking it to Wisconsin. They deserved to win this game, but as others said, it shows how you need the complete package. That offense is dangerous, flat out dangerous. 1 play in OT for a TD? Wow. Also holding Wisconsin to around 100 yards rushing when your giving up 30 pounds atleast. I feel bad for this kid, I hope he can pick himself up because Poly will go as far as their kicker can take them. Seriously though, try the 2pt in OT. With that triple option, that gives Dally so many options at the line depending on how Wisconsin is lined up. Your the underdog, roll the dice. Nevertheless, you made the FCS proud.

[RabidRabbit]

Haha funny game. Wisconsin the underdog in my book wins because Cal Poly can't make Pats. Wow that kicker ended up missing THREE extra points thats insanely sad. One is bad enough but to miss three and end up lossing by one point that just sucks.

IN OT, at a bowl bound Big 10 (granted a very non-prestigous bowl).

Hit even one during regulation game, win by one.

[slostang]

What a game. Mixed emotions. P!ssed we lost because of missed PATs, but proud of how our team played. Cal Poly put 35 points up on a Big Ten team that was only giving up 26. Cal Poly rushed for more yards against Wisconsin than any other team and they were giving up over 60 pounds a man on the lines. Fantastic effort. Painful loss.

It was great to meet a couple of AGS legend, Cap'n Cat and DB1. Great guys. I think the Cap'n was as upset as I was.

[NC Aggie]
