Spiders vs. Elon

[DTSpider]

Great play by #37 the true freshman. And long the play call going deep right after. KL throws such an amazing deep ball.

 

[Stonewall D]

93 yard TD pass is the longest in Spider history.

 

[Marley13]

Not sure which is worse, special teams or tackling.

 

[Stonewall D]

TD Summers. Elon is now ahead.

 

[urfan1]

Griff kicks another and then limps off of field -- his foot must really be giving him some issues

 

[SpiderK]

We have our starting running backs making tackles on kick offs now. Geez

 

[urfan1]

looked like a pretty good tackle to me -- but he was recrutied as a DB

 

[SpiderK]

Griff kicks another and then limps off of field -- his foot must really be giving him some issues

Is it his foot or hip? I can't tell. He is stretching all the time and riding the bike.

 

[urfan1]

thought I heard it was turf toe

 

[Stonewall D]

Only 55 rushing yards tonight.

 

[urfan1]

stand corrected it is a hip --- Great run by Tyler

 

[Stonewall D]

Trau's hip is the problem, according to Bob Black.

 

[Stonewall D]

Wow special teams again.

 

[Stonewall D]

Elon is driving.

 

[Stonewall D]

Correction. TD elon. Score tied at 33.

 

[Stonewall D]

And an INT.

 

[Marley13]

That may be a problem.

 

[Stonewall D]

That may be a problem.

That is an understatement.

 

[Marley13]

Looks like the last team with the ball wins. Need a defensive stand in the last minutes.

 

[Stonewall D]

4th and 1.

 

[Stonewall D]

And we didn't get it.

 

[PhillySpider]

Th O line failed badly on two plays in a row with game on the line.

 

[SpiderK]

Huesman leaves a lot to be desired

 

[PhillySpider]

And they make their 3rd and 1

 

[Stonewall D]

40 carries for 294 yards.

 

[DTSpider]

Short yardage. They can convert as their online moves guys. Our oline only pass protects.

 

[iSpider]

Peter O'Toole said it best in The Gardener, "...our defense would be better if we could tackle."
So much for the playoffs.

 

[Marley13]

Cannot believe we are going to lose to Elon. It's like losing to a girls school or Virginia Blech.

 

[URWilk110]

This team hasn't improved in any part of the game in 4 games. Looks like it's going to be a long season unless the coaches figure something out.

 

[VT_Spider]

Ya our season is done. Say goodbye to the playoffs. Looks like Huesman isn't too good a coach. No reason that with our talent we should be losing to Elon. If Huesman can't win with the loaded roster we have than he is a terrible coach.

 

[Stonewall D]

At least he didn't break 300 yards.

 

[72Spider]

What exactly is this 4-2-5 designed to stop?

 

[PhillySpider]

We were dominated on both lines tonight. You can't win if that happens.

We turned it over 4 times. You can't win if that happens.

We lost on merit. We are not very good right now. Hope it's still adjusting to new staff, but we have no more room for error. Need to win 'me all until,the killer stretch at the end and then go 2-1 in that stretch and hope by playoffs we have found our game.

 

[DTSpider]

Watching fireworks after a loss is an empty feeling

 

[PhillySpider]

We have good offensive skill position guys. After that, we have a lot of questions.

 

[Stonewall D]

Watching fireworks after a loss is an empty feeling

IMHO they should have canceled the fireworks.

 

[thirtyyearspider]

Great passing game. Thought we would have an extremely credible running game this year to complement Lauletta given the returning backs. Have to think it is the line and/or the scheme. Have seen many teams that are so oriented to one phase of the offense that the other falls apart. Being as I have not seen them in person this year, is this true with us?

[SpiderK]

What exactly is this 4-2-5 designed to stop?

It's the prevent defense designed to stop nothing as was shown tonight.

 

[Marley13]

One Way Or Another. Right band though.

 

[WolfSpider]

We had 580 total yards offense and scored 33 points. No excuse in losing that game. Though there were offensive issues, this loss falls squarely on the shoulders of the defense.
