FOOTBALL Middle Tennessee (5-2; 2-1) @ FIU (3-5; 3-1), (ESPN3), 6PM, Saturday, October 29, 2016

[MTBig Blue]

There is literally no one at this game. I feel bad for FIU. They have absolutely no support.

 

[MidTnBlues]

another TD

 

[SpaceRaider]

21-0

 

[SpaceRaider]

FIU scores 21-7

 

[MTBig Blue]

Our defense....

 

[SpaceRaider]

Our defense....

SUCKS

 

[SCRaider01]

What defense? I just can't believe this is a talent issue.

 

[SCRaider01]

Go for it on 4th down on your own 35 in the 2nd quarter??!!! Flat out embarrassing.

 

[BRaiderDave]

Any HIGH SCHOOL in America could score on this defense.

 

[SpaceRaider]

Dear Santa,
Please send a new defensive staff for Christmas.

 

[MightyRaider]

Our defense....

Why do we refuse to play a nickel corner on a slot receiver? It is unbearable to watch our defense.

 

[BRaiderDave]

I'm almost to the point of turning off this crap.

 

[SCRaider01]

The only way this squad can stop a drive, a turnover.

 

[sWiley]

This is why I was shocked that we let WKU have the ball back on that 4th and 1 with 90 second left in the game. It was plainly obvious our defense wasn't going to get it done.

And I don't know why anyone is surprised that FIU is moving the ball. We let an anemic Missouri & Vanderbilt offense score 45 & 47 points on this trash can defense. I would love to know the last time Vanderbilt put up 47 points on ANYBODY.

Bottom line is we are not as good as we think we are. Did you see what Kentucky did to Missouri today? The score isn't even indicative of the @$$ pounding the Wildcats put on them.

 

[sWiley]

And how bad is this FIU broadcast? I'm only getting sound about 30% of the time. Jesus christ so bush league

 

[BRaiderDave]

They have no more than 1k fans there.

 

[MightyRaider]

And how bad is this FIU broadcast? I'm only getting sound about 30% of the time. Jesus christ so bush league

Also the announcers gushing over fiu

 

[MightyRaider]

Replay was inoperable haha pathetic

 

[BRaiderDave]

According to FIU fans on the CUSA board they are indeed FIU announcers.

 

[SCRaider01]

I wonder if that timeout was to decide whether or not to just let them score on the next play so we can get the ball back.

 

[SpaceRaider]

halftime, MT defense has laid down and rolled over, giving FIU offense all the momentum in the world.

 

[Blueraider_Mike]

Like I have been saying, this will be a tough game. It's always a tough game

FIU is 3-1 in conference play and they control their own destiny.

Getting out with a win is all that matters.

 

[MTBig Blue]

I don't usually get involved with the threads about getting rid of a coach, but something has to be done in the offseason. We cannot continue to get no pressure on the QB. We need another DL coach.

 

[SCRaider01]

The LB havent played that well either so I wouldn't lay it solely at the feet of the DL. And way too may passes are uncontested.

 

[sWiley]

we aregoing to lose this game

 

[SpaceRaider]

mcgough back in for fiu

 

[Blueraider_Mike]

Our WR are constantly dropping passes as well.

Meanwhile, our punter is horrible

But, I just want a win!

 

[SCRaider01]

This team is like putting an 800 HP supercharged V8 in a Pinto.

 

[SpaceRaider]

now fiu has more offensive yards than MT, what a freaking reversal of fortunes. We'll be lucky to hang on and win this game.

 

[SpaceRaider]

28-28

12:45 left

Offense needs to get in gear.

 

[MTBig Blue]

What is it with us giving up big leads against FIU? 2 years ago, Jordan parker was running it in for a TD to make it 28-3 and fumbles it. FIU ends up winning the game.

Now tonight.

 

[SpaceRaider]

snapped the ball only 12 times in this half...

 

[SCRaider01]

%#$%#-%&(&# someone needs to get fired on the defensive staff. This is beyond horribly pathetic.

 

[JohnDavidBlue]

We are both in the drivers seat.

 

[SpaceRaider]

JAmes for a TD

 

[SCRaider01]

Stat of the game. Time of possession. FIU 32:14. MTSU 15:48.

 

[Hop45]

CB play has not been great either. Minted couldn't cover me.

 

[SCRaider01]

4-4 on 4th down. For the love of God man.

 

[SpaceRaider]

first and goal on the MT6

 

[MTBig Blue]

It's been a long time since I've seen an MT defense as bad as this. Their QB came into this game with 10 interceptions and he's carving us up.
