<p>First Q undone by 3 holding penalties and a false start. I like what I see from our RBs and O line. D looks very solid.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">On the bright side, the penalties mean we're winning TOP 13 minutes to 2.</p><p class="sceditor-nlf"><br></p>

<p>Really hope we win the turnover battle this season. Too soon to tell, but </p><p><br>This OL looks <i>really </i>good against what is supposed to be the toughest front seven they will see all season.</p>

<p>Why the hell is Shaw punting from the 34!?!?!!?!?</p>
And why are html tags showing in my post edit?
RE: Next starts now (NW game thread) - Hurlburt88 - 08-31-2019
I can’t believe we punted!!!!
RE: Next starts now (NW game thread) - BostonCard - 08-31-2019
WIM, are you seeing something on TV? We have 49 yards rushing in a quarter against a decent front seven. Sloppy? Sure. Those two holds and a false start hurt, but I think they’ve done well.
Punting from the 34 into the end zone. Nice 14 yard net punt.

<p>And... a Net Punt of 12 yards to the NW 20. </p>
RE: Next starts now (NW game thread) - BostonCard - 08-31-2019
I get it was fourth and ten, but it would have been a 51 yard field goal with very little wind. Toner could have made it.

The worst part is that the punter punted it seven yards deep in the end zone for a net 14 yard punt. That's not good, not good at all, and I hope Shaw doesn't punt inside the 40 again this season. He could have at least tried for a field goal.

<p>If you have confidence in your defense, then you should go for it and not worry about field position...</p>
RE: Next starts now (NW game thread) - BostonCard - 08-31-2019
Agreed. Defense did it’s thing despite giving up a first down. Should have gone for the field goal. Toner can make it from 51.

Lots of Northwestern would be tacklers are going to have sore ankles tomorrow.

I don’t think we’ve run a play with a fullback yet.

<p>LOVE that play call for the TD!</p><p><br></p><p>Play action crossing route behind the LOS, so there is no OPI, allowing Parkinson to pick the Safety without penalty.</p>
