Re: Tulane Wake Forest
1st and goal on the 1 against a top national O line. What are the odds here?

Re: Tulane Wake Forest
This was ours to win. All we had to do was reach up and take it. I'm sure things will look different in a few days, but this feels an awful lot like last year all over again.

Re: Tulane Wake Forest
Just an absolutely classic #tulane finish. You think I'd be used to it by now, but no, never gets any easier.

And that’s that. The Wave beat the Wave.
Good thing finishing wasn’t a theme of fall camp or anything.

Re: Tulane Wake Forest
Typo. I changed it to 20 (ball on the 3, kicked from the 10).double d wrote:Impossible, ball would be on the goal line for that.Roller wrote:Their guy missed a 10 yarder in the first quarter...
Re: Tulane Wake Forest
First half three punts inside 40. We lose because of that. Really disappointing with how conservative we were.

Re: Tulane Wake Forest
Couldn’t finish again. SMU loss was painful. This one is just as painful. Second straight loss on the final play of the game.

Re: Tulane Wake Forest
Well, there goes our undefeated season.
Re: Tulane Wake Forest
Yardage 548-436 Wake. We rushed for 153, they got 170.

Re: Tulane Wake Forest
Firtz is supposedly a "moneyball" kind of guy. But I can't imagine that math favors punting from the 38 yard line with a minute left. If we're not going to kick a field goal, we'd still be better off going for it. Giving them the ball on their own 20 vs. their own 38 just doesn't mean much with a minute left. Add in that their kicker is a freshman and had already missed from short range and it just doesn't make sense.

Re: Tulane Wake Forest
100% agree. Far too much punting overall. Half expected a punt on 4th down in OTJohnny4 wrote:Firtz is supposedly a "moneyball" kind of guy.
