utep vs rice game thread

[MineroFanatico]

We really need Rice to implode offensively so that we can stay in this game.

 

[Rot]

We need to keep pounding the rock. Rice’s defense is getting tired now.

 

[Taco1977]

Then he gets the pick.

Through all these years, I've never learned to keep my big fat mouth shut! 😂

 

[Rot]

And the typical timeout by the Miners because we couldn’t get the play in on time.

 

[MinerManiac]

Touchdown Miners! Nice play!

 

[develman]

This is our chance to win because our offense is limited.

 

[MineroFanatico]

Nice call coach!

 

[Rot]

Nice job by the Miners! The offense finally woke up. We need the D to step up.

 

[Dmanminer]

That was a nice play!! TD Miners!!!!

 

[utep-piggy]

nice pass by hardison under duress

Me either. Funny, there are plenty of other guys I could have picked on. Maybe this is a good sign. 😉

 

[Rot]

Nice solid tackle by Barnes.

 

[utep-piggy]

bery impressed with rice’s passing game

 

[MinerManiac]

3rd and 12 and they convert on QB sneak?

 

[FeralFelidae]

This is the defense from the LA Tech game.

 

[Dmanminer]

Have to stop them here

 

[utep-piggy]

UTEPs offense is going to have to score frequently if it’s going to win this game, the defense is going to give up more than 40

 

[Rot]

Total homers with those announcers.

Totally agree

Yep, this is a problem when the offense has to be run-heavy, if we get into a shootout the offense must pass(which can lead to problems). But only 3 points down still can control the game in the 2nd half, let's see if they make any adjustments. This is a must win IMO for them to reach 6 wins. Cause they aren't beating UTSA. UTSA is so much better than us.

I hope we can do something but I think — and I truly am not sure — but I think I read that we are like the worst 3rd quarter team in C-USA if not in the country. Mother Earth help us.

 

[Dmanminer]

Let’s see if Dismel will run the ball. Or will he come out throwing, and throw the game away.

You're correct, I think it was CUSA because our coaches excel at halftime adjustments.

 

[utep-piggy]

Rice offense with 284 yards at halftime

 

[develman]

Being down 3 they can still run, but if Rice takes their possession in for a TD, Dimel will panic and unleash Hardison.

Yep. At least we scored in the first quarter. I think we have scored 23 points the entire year in the first quarter. Let's see what Dimel can draw up for the 3rd. 😉

 

[Dmanminer]

Being down 3 they can still run, but if Rice takes their possession in for a TD, Dimel will panic and unleash Hardison.

And then we will be in trouble.

 

[Dmanminer]

Question? I know Dismel has a extension but could his job be on the line if they don’t get to a bowl?

 

[colominer]

Rozner and McCaffrey both look like NFL material. UTEP needs to get more pressure on the QB.

 

[MinerManiac]

Finally forced them to punt

 

[develman]

I wish we had at least one of them on our team.

 

[MinerManiac]

The pitch would have given us a 1st down. Fumble!

 

[Rot]

Fumble! Miners recover

 

[MinerManiac]

Our 2nd break of this game. We capitalized on the first one, hopefully we do again

 

[Rot]

We need to capitalize on this turnover and score a TD on this drive.

 

[utep-piggy]

I wish we had at least one of them on our team.

dimel wouldn’t know what to do with them, i’ll take their oc

 

[MinerManiac]

Great field position, and we don't gain a yard

 

[TxRdKiller]

Color guy Tom Herman sounds like he’d be a better coach for us than what we have now.

just sayin’

 

[Rot]

No creativity on this offensive series by UTEP. A missed opportunity.

 

[Maximus Miner]

WTF was that? Pathetic Dimel play calling.

 

[develman]

That's what I was thinking.
