Nevada Dork Pack game

[SkinnyBenny]

We did great! Go team! Proud of this house we've built. IRL this was a great win.

[PurpleOil]

Agreed. This was a solid non-conference slate we went through, and now we're 3-0.

[CHONGS]

how good is nevada supposed to be?

We were dogs at home, and they were a trendy pick to win the MW (and possibly sneak into NY6 bowl).  Of course time will tell.

For anyone watching, a nice little bonus from ESPN+ is the completely random down and distance displays they’ve been using. Really adds some mystery if you’re just half paying attention.

Yeah, this was incredible to follow while entertaining a toddler.

Dear god be threw one into quadruple coverage on 3rd and long that made my jaw drop.

[wiley]

So I missed the beginning of the second half. What made the Nevada coach go berzerk?

raging against the refs for a couple flags (that were both subsequently picked up) . . . was flailing around and accidently punched one of his assistants

This was great

[catastrophe]

Another highlight was the Nevada player tossing play money into the stands after what I think turned out to be their last score in the game early in the 3rd quarter.

Was it in front of Icat students? couldn't tell

Yea that was pinpoint, and it had to be. I was impressed, and frankly that bomb he threw was pretty spot on perfect too.

I noticed this as well throughout the entire game. 2ND AND 10.....5 yard pass....1ST AND 10 is displayed and you are thinking WTF was that 10 yards then you hear the PA announcer say "ITS THIRD DOWN"

[stunted]

i really like having a good defense. it was soulcrushing those bend-don't-break years of just letting teams have 5-10 yards every play.

Yes. Having a good defense is fun. When they are aggressive and full of swagger it’s even better.

[CHONGS]

Loved seeing us get that unsportsmanlike.

[KST8FAN]

Stan Weber is going on and on right now about how impressive it is that we're about to go 3-0 in a very tough non-con without having completed a passing touchdown. Like homie, were you stuck in traffic and late to the game? Lil Coward threw a 70-yard bomb on the second play of the game.

Stan Webber is such a blessing

Wyatt forgot we kicked a FG today as well in post game.  They must be nipping the Wabash in the press box.

I can't believe how many times we ran the ball today. That can't be sustainable, can it?

No it was just the plan for today. We will have to throw against OSU.

Well we do have 3 RBs and a running QB so I mean, why not

7 of the 10 big 12 teams have the personnel to stop our run if it’s predictable

I knew we would whip some ass today

I mean our oline is coming together, and it's not like OSU is explosive at all. But understand

The three-headed monster is a force to be reckoned with.

Except the third head gets 2 carries a game

If the starter is Deuce Vaughn and the backup is getting like 7 ypc, it would be malpractice to take the ball out of those guys hands. Even on those short yardage situations, Howard looks bigger than Jacardia.

You can tell the coaches know he needs to be pumped up a bit. On the touchdown that Howard ran in for to make it 31-17 all of the coaches ran up to Jacardia and tapped him on the helmet and hyped him up in his ear. I don't know if he had some great block, they didn't show the replay in stadium, but it just seemed like Will did the whole bang into the line thing.

Then when Will scored again to make it 38-17 Jacardia hung his head, you can tell he wanted the ball, then seemingly aware of his body language, he picked his head up and jogged off the field clapping his hands but not talking to anyone at all.

He's probably going to leave and that's okay because he's playing behind two studs and he needs a chance to shine as well. God bless the transfer portal.

[MakeItRain]

What a great effort from our o line today.

I hope Josh Rivas is okay. 

He came back in and finished the game. I think he sprained his ankle. The trainers taped something up but I couldn't see what it was they taped because they have the injury tent thing. The trainer ran out, got tape and prewrap, Rivas was out of the tent and in the game less than 5 minutes later.

This was right in front of me and it was unreal. Remember when I said that Mahomes was the best quarterback I've ever seen and he would be a NFL quarterback? I do! Well Carson Strong is the best passer I've ever seen. He's clearly not as athletic as Mahomes, but as a pure passer he's as good as I've ever seen. That bomb he hit was also very well defended but he dropped it in there, perfectly. He's athletic enough and moved in the pocket well, had good pocket awareness. He's much better than Rattler.
