Wow you can't read either. Let me repeat it for you again, it proves nothing even if RU beat UCONN. You are still an idiot who can't get out of your own way. Our discussion has nothing to do with whether I think UCONN is so much better. Our discussion focused on how you ignored all the facts and stick to your hatred of UCONN by using selective opinions. In the end, you are still an idiot whether UCONN wins or loses at RU this year.

You can call me an idiot if it makes you feel better but at the end of the day you have proved that you are a blind homer. Both Temple and Louisville got screwed last year. I know it and many on here know it. If they weren't screwed and my "hatred for UCONN" was making this all up then why were there public apologies issued by both conferences? Obviously they feel the wrong call on the field was made? Guess they hate Uconn too right? Nov 3rd can't come here soon enough puppie.

Ok Jr I guess you missed the whole point of why I started this thread in the first place. You still failed to see the other side, which is expected considering your past record.

I think we can put this thread to rest for now. It is not fun for me to continue picking on the handicap.

Yeah, Nov 3rd can't come here fast enough. It should be a good one regardless of the result. I hope we gonna smoke you like we did last year. I like to see how your 4 and 5 stars recruits against our no star recruits.

We need to move on until then.

I think Temple got screwed last year. I look at it frame by frame and I still think they got screwed. It looks like a catch to me. I'm not saying it was or wasn't just that TO ME it looks like he had realistic control of the ball. All the frame by frame proves is that it was an extremely close call.

UCONN will always be blasted for the punt return because that was not a judgement call. It was blatent cheating and the Ref was too much of an idiot to make the correct call on multiple issues with the play. That wasn't a judgement call. Yes, there were questionable calls later in the game that went Louisville's way but it wasn't due to a Louisville player knowingly breaking the rules.

In fact, the muffed punt often cited by UCONN fans was called as illegal touching by UCONN and the ball was awarded to Louisville at the spot of the illegal contact. That's why it was brought out to the 11yard line (or whatever) instead of staying at the 1 yard line where the UCONN player eventually recovered. Now, in my opinion it was PROBABLY the Louisville player that touched the ball and not the UCONN guy so UCONN should have received possession on the 1 yard line. But it was a close call and the ref made a decision. The Louisville player wasn't knowingly cheating. That is the difference between the calls.

The Temple call will die down a lot quicker as it was a judgement call in a nonconference game. The fake fair catch call will linger for years as it was a conference game , with a blatent error by the refs, with the added insult of Coach Edsel awarding a game ball to the offender.

Just my 2 cents. On with the debate

I would gladly bet a sig that UConn beats Rutgers this year. Your D-Line is pathetic, special teams are still an Achilles' Heel, and Teel does not play like a leader. If UConn had the receivers you had, we'd be a Top 15 team, easily. Even without a vertical passing game, expect to get gashed again by Donald Brown.

This thread has resided far too long on the main board.

I was wondering what happened to this thread. I guess it is at the right place now.

Ok let's look at things from another perspective.

Temple player to me CLEARLY did not have possession when he went out of the bound. ESPN did the frame by frame analysis later and they agreed also. Because that camera angle was not available to ESPN during the game, it was not shown on national TV. I wish they did have that during the time cause this controversy should never been one in the first place. Ref with the view made the call and there was not enough evidence to overturn it. UCONN won.

On the UL game - I don't know if you ever play football. Players are taught to play until ref blew the whistle. Larry Taylor merely did what he was taught. It was possible the ref did not see his fair catch signal so he took off. According to you, next time a player did something that's a penalty they should stop playing? Next time an offensive lineman holds a DL they should just stop playing cause they broke the rule? Those things happen all the time. UL players should kept on playing since they also DID NOT hear the whistle. How do you blame Larry Taylor on this? Refs screwed up. Blame them. UCONN player had nothing to do with it. He was merely doing what his coaches taught him since Pop Warner. On your questionable call, well ESPN did have the angle and replay. There is no doubt UL guy touched the ball and UCONN was screwed out of a TD.

So the UL punt coverage should have hit the returner even after they wave the fair catch and proceed to get a 15 yard penalty? Your POS punt returner decided to cheat a rule that is put there to protect him not the coverage team but its their fault for actually being decent humans right?

......Yea if you had the recievers right? Who would pass to them? Mr 3 INT against I-AA Hofstra? alrighty then loser carries the others sig of choice until the next game in 2009.....not next season next RU-Uconn game.

Just curious, are you still so confident that RU gonna kick UCONN's ass when we play?

SF, there is really only one thing a Uconn fan needs to say to yet ANOTHER in a very long line of delusional and ignorant RU fans..........
