The new defense should be interesting....damn they are looking the same right now on the ground!

We need more red and white going on for this forum!
Well that was easy. Welcome to the James White Show.
7-0 Bucky! James White didn't have the breakaway speed you'd hope for but looked great on that drive. So did Stave.
Picking up right where we left off
Sure is nice having Wayne Larivee as an announcer. Beats the schlups ESPN usually rolls out.
If someone figures out where Stave was going with that pass, let me know.
I wonder if that was a bad route or a bad pass... it wasn't even close. Stave probably shouldn't have even gone there, it looked like the coverage was good.
Either way, get to see the D more which is fine by me.
You might be right Toad, looked like some lazy routes in that play.
NICE tackle!
UMMM, WTF? That was not a first. Not even close.
How the hell was that a 1st? Tackle looked perfect!
Thanks for the replay btw BTN
That was no fumble. What's up with these Refs? Are these the replacements from the NFL?
Yeah that was pretty rough.... I never thought for a second it was a TD
Hope like hell he just got the wind knocked out of him. WR is the biggest ? on this team.
Wow. Gordon really looks like a special talent.
I am hoping so too, we need Abs...
Let's hope Stave just has some butterflies/is rusty. He looks like crap so far. Bad throws, horrible throws and now a dropped snap...

Damn you Toad, you beat me to that comment by seconds!
sorry!
But JJ is right, Stave is having a bit of a rough time to start
JJSD and he has all the time in the world to throw. Will Phillips get minutes?
I imagine he will, but mostly because UW will be way ahead against these stiffs. I'm still thinking Stave just needs to knock the rust off a bit. It's been a long time since he's played in a game other than 2 snaps in the Rose Bowl. It's also a new offense. IMHO you need to play one guy unless it's a blowout and let him get better.
J White - 85 yards on 7 carries with 9 minutes left in the half.
On the other hand, Stave 3/8 for 32 yards and an int.
This is Battle of the Crosbys.
Pederson might want to catch that.
Gordon reminds me of Ahman Green. Not the same running style because Gordon is more upright, but they're similar in that if Gordon gets any sort of crease he is absolutely gone.
He reminds me of Erick Dickerson. Tons of power and acceleration.
Umass punter's punts are so bad the camera operators can't even find the ball.
These "receivers" haven't exactly been helping Stave make his case.
