Worst half of football I've ever seen from ODU.

3rd and 23

While you were worried about me, UNH converted on 3rd down again.

Again another dumb ass penalty.

The defense is killing us.

Worst shootout ever. We're getting kneecapped everywhere.

All you experts #$#%#$ on the team, is this the first time you've seen them play because they are on TV? I'll be honest and say it's my first time because I always work on Saturdays, but I'm not bewildered because they are losing.

30 minutes left, first to 68 wins.

What no mention of the special teams turnovers that have taken two drives away from Heinicke and has led to 14 UNH points?

I've seen them play all year. Those past 3 games were to iron out the wrinkle in this team. Don't even argue with us because there is no defense for this showing.

Just asking a question, I haven't been to a game, so I'm not in a position to debate anything.

Hoping for a 62-61 win at this point.

We can spot any team 14 points as long as we can stop 2 69 yard runs and a long pass on 3rd and 23.

Corners need to start tackling and stop trying to just drop a shoulder into them. They just run right thru.

Gonna be a LOT of gassers this week. Stupid penalties.

Special teams is still lacking. The right side of their d line has been a eating up number 73.

We've made some good plays moving the ball. Just gotta hold them on a few drives and we will make it a game.

It's a 16 point game with 30 to play. Now is not the time to give up on this team. Anyone who does knows zilch about football.

Honest question, shouldn't we have markedly better athletes than New Hampshire?

Agreed sadly. I'm seeing a hs defense out there doing weakass tackles. If it doesn't turn around 2 half buh bye.

Let me make a suggestion. No more negative posts until the game is no longer in doubt.

First game I've been able to watch on TV since I live in Colorado, but this IS the worst half of football I've seen ODU play. I've watched all but two games live on the streams (home and away) in the last four years. I hope you weren't referring to those of us who are stoked to watch this on TV without being tied to their computer for several hours.

GO MONARCHS!

I'm about to walk back into the stands and continue to cheer regardless. Just expressing frustration. :)

This is all about the first half.

I'm not disagreeing with you about the defense, I just think the special teams deserves a big part of the blame. Muffed kicks (especially the one by Mayers where he went after the ball surrounded by Wildcats) are absolutely avoidable boneheaded mistakes and the difference in this game presently.

I like our chances to come back but it will be extremely difficult if the arm-tackling and awful pass coverage continues.
