Gordon's play just took the fight out of them.

[Lobot]

Despite everything, we are in this one.

And why run two stupid runs before half and 60 yards away? I complained to my dad before it happened they just risk injury, and sure enough, Montgomery came up lame. So dumb!

[UC4me]

Why are they reviewing the interception but didn't review the fumble by Jones?

[Rufus]

Gordon complaining to the refs at break

[Rufus]

That's what we need to do the rest of this game. Continued pounding of Kiner and Montgomery.

[UC4me]

Wonder if Satterfield will publicly walk back his non-explosive running backs comment now! Way to go Montgomery!

[Rufus]

For a quarterback that supposed to have a rep as being able to beat you with his arm or his legs he hasn't shown much from either weapon. Just got toe tackled by the only cowpoke in the vicinity.

[longtimefan]

Oy, here we go again.

Based on some pics that OSU just posted, we're the homecoming opponent.

Based on the way that we have played this year, we will be everyone's homecoming opponent next year.

I don't usually do weather reports but this game is going to be awful for the players. 45 degrees with gusty north winds and cold rain starting after halftime. Wind chill will be below freezing by the end of the game. Bleah...

Offensive game plan: Run, run, run.

But that 1983 game and season was noteworthy if not historical, by UCFB standards in that era.

That game was played the week after UC's upset win over Penn St. in Happy Valley, 14-3. It was a night game, Nippert Stadium was as full as could be (although I can't find an attendance stat), which was amazing because that was also Johnny Bench night at Riverfront Stadium (which was, naturally, also full).

The game was closely played, but the turning point was an uncalled clipping penalty by OK St. (I believe it was Melvin Jenkins as the defender, and I think he was out for the season due to the injury on that play). The final score was 27-17.

1983 was HC Watson Brown's first and only season at UC; he left for Rice after the season but I was already hearing rumors he was gone by the 4th game of the year. They ended the season at 4-6-1, with the tie being with UK in Lexington.

Attendance was about 25K, and at the time, Nippert held around 28K. Great crowd. UC pulled off one of the "slickest" fake FG's I have ever seen. UC hung w/ them for a good while. It was a great game, considering much press attention was on Johnny Bench night at Riverfront. I had heard that Watson Brown was on the phone w/ other schools, the Monday morning after the Penn State win. He really never succeeded anywhere, and Rice paid him some seriously BIG BUCKs to go there, and he did nothing, and was fired after 3 years.
