THE IUP Football Thread

[Ramhead]

The league is a flag fest. Tort’s 2017 team had I believe a few games with zero and one penalties. Shepherd / Cal game last week had 238 combined penalty yards with another 10 declined. Now u tell me the refs don’t have issues. They are over officiating instead of just calling the OBVIOUS FOULS…Referring 101…just sayin

The refs then have to deliberate after each call. On the game tying field goal Shep had 4.2 seconds to snap the ball once the clock was started. The ref told the long snapper to take his hands off the ball until the clock started. The LS refused and snapped the call when he heard the whistle blow. Smart move!

You should hear why they cancelled the post-victory hot dog deals!

They ran out of horses.

I'd be interested in where IUP has ranked going back maybe in the Tort era and then maybe 10 years. I feel like IUP is frequently one of the most penalized teams.

That's the worst that's happening? I think IUP is in good shape then with the direction this country is going.

Always enjoy the police reports this time of year. The Wayne Ave (7th St) Sheetz had a patron urinate behind its checkout counter at 130am Saturday. Keep in mind, one has to jump the counter to get back there.

Kind of a hard one to explain when you're captured on 30 cameras.

God Bless those who work the Graveyard Shift at that location.

Wawa workers in some sections of Philly and Delco say suck it up buttercups. :-)

It’s an addendum to the original IUP Rule that IUP
must be penalized the most every season.

Stat to keep an eye on for this week:

IUP is the most penalized team in the PSAC (100 yards per game).

Mercyhurst is among the least penalized teams at just 44 yards per game.

After two weeks I'd say being the road team probably got IUP a couple extra flags it likely wouldnt have got at Miller. But, nonetheless.

A hundo per game can't happen anymore.

It’s a conspiracy engineered by The Home Office in Lock Haven. :-)

Don't let them get past you. It's not hard!

The part about just throwing deep made me laugh ... not your common 'coach speak'.

But, yes, they better get it fixed. Quickly. Film is out now. They may see an air show in the coming weeks.

This quote really stood out in the Gazette game article:


“We keep harping on the guys to keep their hands off them,” Tortorella said. “We say to keep everyone in front of you. I don’t know how they don’t see it. You don’t have to be a football coach to see it. They’re getting beat and then chasing after guys. If I were coaching against us, I’d just throw deep the whole game because right now, it’s either going to be a completion or pass interference. We better get it fixed.”



Well, they are going to face some gunslingers here in the coming weeks.

A subtle indictment of his co-DC who on paper coaches DBs?
