One Frame At A Time: Rutgers Comment Count

Ace

Of note:

  1. Jabrill Peppers is going Norfleet-before-a-punt to keep the game entertaining.
  2. On defense.
  3. It is still the second quarter.
  4. Total yards are 311-3.

It only would've been slightly more insulting to Rutgers if Peppers had continued dancing during the play—not that doing so would've affected the outcome.

Wave back, guys!

Finally, a touchdown!

No sarcasm here—this was a wonderful moment:

You'd be hard-pressed to find a knight mascot less intimidating than this one.

I'm still trying to figure out how the Evans near-TD (which is a great, Peppers-esque run) wasn't an actual TD.  It sure looks like he got in.

Can somebody please tell me who the block in the back was called on?! I've watched that gif over and over and over ... And all I see is RU guys flailing around, with the first two being shielded by Michigan blockers who, being well coached and disciplined, pull back so as to NOT DRAW a block in the back flag.

This was a comedy game- glad we're on the right side of it! All the Gifs are making me chuckle. Now here's to doing the same to Illinois and Sparty- Go Blue!

After the Jabrill dacing gif, things don't get much better for our boys. From that point on the defense would be gashed for 92% of Rutgers total yards. Not sure why their fans are getting on Ash for not making adjustments.

Another vote here for Gedeon. Can't remember if it was a sack. He blasted the RB milliseconds after the handoff. I swear the Rutgers guy was cringing at the handoff. I saw the play develop and thought Gedeon was just going to intercept the handoff and run in six.

When Peppers ripped off that monster Peppercat read run, I said to my son, "Peppers is doing his Denard impersonation." When Darboh stretched out for that TD, "and now Darboh is impersonating Desmond." I love this team.
