***Lamar vs Northern Iowa Game Thread***

Game to kick off at 4:00 on ESPN3

 

If anyone is interested, Buffalo Wild Wings on Dowlen in Beaumont will be hosting a watch party.

Game is in direct tv as well

I’ll be watching from my cabin in the Smokey Mountains, North Carolina. I have DirectTV here. Edited November 24, 2018 by Skinny1

Does anyone else cringe as much as I do when he reads the press release on the Lamar athletics website for games? It’s so riddled with mistakes that I can’t read it without wanting to punch myself in the face.

during baseball, Headlines would say crap like “LU gets 7 hits”, or “Lu has strong 1st inning” in games they got trashed. They did the same thing for volleyball. Media dude is a spin doctor.

Lets go Big Red

If you have Spectrum cable, the game will be on channel 394 as well

What channel on Directv did you find?

I’ve heard 790

Now that’s the way to start a game. 2nd play Colbert to Banks for 6

After the big kickoff return and a couple of big offensive plays Lamar defense holds and forces UNI to settle for the field goal. Not a bad start at all. Need another drive to gain confidence.

You’re missing it puddin...they are chunkin that tater all over the yard...even the WRs and getting in on it!

Colbert to Robinson for 6 on 3rd and long...XP good this time and it’s 13-3

Yeah, Im not having any problem. And where has this offense been? Lamar up 13-3 following Colbert to Robinson td pass.

Halftime and the game is tied at 13. That's the good news, on the negative side Lamar offense didn't do much after the first couple of possesions.

What's going on with the cards. I am in a blackout area and BRI is my only way of keeping up with the game.

Ok, Dodd & Schultz need to get creative on offense. Bliel needs to motivate the OL. Let's stick it to them in the 2ND half.

Lamar started hot then UNI started gashing with their running attack. Defense has stood tall on third downs for the most part. UNI was able to convert a 4th and 1 then later scored to tie it at 13. My worry with this game is will the defense be able to keep it up in the 4th quarter? The UNI OL is having their way up front and Lamar DT Reggie Boseman is now crutches.

Good defense to start the 3rd quarter forcing a punt.

 

Lamar worked their way deep into UNI territory but Wanza fumbles and UNI recovers

Defense forces a 3 and out. Lamar ball at the 33

Lamar forced to punt but a deflected pass results in an interception. Lamar ball at the UNI 22. The Colbert sacked in 1st down

And a missed FG...

Ok... Does anyone know the real reason why Hoy isn't playing? As big of a difference that Hoy makes to our offense while he's on the field, I just have a hard time believing it's the 'Colbert was the starter before he got hurt...'.

If that truly is the reason why, ok... but IMO, if Colbert had not gotten hurt, there's no way we run the table like we did during the regular season. Not saying Colbert is a bad player... he just doesn't have what Hoy brings to our offense.

I don't have any inside information, but for whatever reason Schultz made up his mind before the first game of the season that Colbert was his man and if he is nothing else, Schultz is loyal to his man. Only hope may be that Colbert twist his ankle again.
