SEMO vs Southern Illinois at 5:30 ESPN+

Post by cats2506 » Thu Aug 29, 2019 5:07 pm

If you have ESPN+ you can watch our Gold Rush opponent play Southern Illinois at 5:30

Mods if yo want to move this to College Sports do it, I just wanted the football people to see that the game was on

SEMO just got called for “disconcerting signals”. We got two of those during the UNC game.

Very odd call that results from defense making sounds that are similar enough to the snap count to cause false start on offense (my understanding).

SEMO has 7 penalties early in the 2nd quarter. Didn't hurt them on that last drive. They got an Emanuel Butler style receiver that's winning some 50-50 lobs.

7-7 with 10 minutes left in the 2nd quarter.

These guys can't defend a deep ball to save their life. They're stout on D line (and ofc as I type this the Salukis get a rushing TD) so if Ifanse gets stuffed, it may be on Bauman's arm to win the game. If we can get ahold of that though we may not need to punt all game haha

SIU just ran all the way down the field with ground and pound for 7. That's good news. They keep getting 3rd and short and have picked up 6 out 7 3rd down conversions.

14-7 SIU 6 left in the 2nd.

SEMO skewered them through the air on that drive. Huge holes in the zone and one play where the safety tripped over a white line. :shrug:

Just trying to scout the game. Nice to see their weaknesses and understand their strengths.

This game is a double whammy. UNA is dUMb's week 2 opponent and they look good. Up 9-0 with the ball.

UNA was a good DII team, they may surprise more than a few teams this year

This is their first game as a true FCS team.
