No Kazanowsky at QB for RPI

Anyone else having problems getting audio from Buffalo St? Union takes opening kick right down the field and scores on a Michael Fiore run. 7-0 Garnet.

No audio here either.

Meanwhile, RPI/Hobart feed is borderline unwatchable.  They cut to a sideline cam during most plays, what a mess.

Finally got sound just as 1st quarter ends. Union now up 21-3.

No Kazanowsky at QB for RPI

But their freshman QB just threw a bomb for a long TD.

Now he (Justin McCormack) ran for a second TD. Prior to today he only had mop up duty with six attempts. So far he has looked pretty poised.

These Hobart announcers are so cringeworthy...

Receiver and Cornerback both pushing and battling: 'Well, if you're allowed to blatantly interfere every time, Hobart may need to call a different play.' And after a TD: 'And by the way, the defense is allowed to hold receivers with both hands...'.

Hobart lines up for a FG with 4 seconds: 'And RPI is going to call timeout to what, ice the kicker? For a 20 yard field goal. Hahaha'. Meanwhile, that TO gave Hobart to change their mind and ends up scoring.

Dude, you sound like the clowniest homer ever. Brutal to listen to.

Ted Baker (one of my all time favorites), best quote of the first half (and there were a lot to choose from), "I hope the Hobart DB's are taking note that in this game you can grab both shoulder pads of the receiver when covering. I know I'm supposed to be a good boy but come on..."

Excuse me if I misquoted a word or two, but you get my gist. Baker is absolutely one of my favorites. Great game so far. 14-10 Engineers at the half.

'One of my favorites'...oof. Your taste is not impressive. It's pretty god awful to listen to.

Totally get it Mach. I just enjoy him because I think he does such a great job on the call and yet, he's got to be the biggest homer announcer I have ever heard, and I mean ever. It's like I completely respect his knowledge and commentating ability but the fact that he is always able to add that other element really entertains me.

Union up 30-10 over Buffalo St. at halftime. Lots of balls in the air for both sides. Union's Donovan Pacatte is 12/19 for 200 yards and a TD. Buff Sts. Noah Kimble 12/19 for 99 but with 2 picks. For Union Michael Fiore is doing his thing 11/51 and 2 TDs. The star for Union so far is kicker Max Gluck who is 3 for 3 (34, 40,38) on field goals. He's making a late push for kicker of the year in the LL. One downer for the Garnet is that they allowed a 95 yard kickoff return TD. Got to clean that up.

A lot of interesting football being played.

Union up 30-10 as expected.

Hobart and RPI in a war, RPI up 14-10.  I think Hobart has been the better team and may pull away in the second half.

Ithaca in a closer battle with SLU, 16-7, where the rookie QB has struggled against what I think is a decent SLU secondary.

Dickinson up on JHU at the half, 9-6, which is good for RPI and bad for everyone else in R2

Mt. Union crushing JCU, which is good for all Pool C hopefuls.

Cortland killing Brockport, good for every R2 Pool C helpful..

UW La Cross up 14-0 over UW River Falls early, also good for Pool Cers.

Hats off to Hobart for bouncing back after a touch start and flat out whooping RPI on the second half.  A great gritty effort on senior day.

One more LL war to play next week.

Meanwhile, Buff St. not content to let Union kneel it out with 30 seconds left, calling timeouts down 43-17.  I'm hoping Poppe runs play action.

Buff State called a TO after a kneel?

THE BOZ CAN NOT BE ENGINEERED. HOMER ANNOUNCERS ARE PART OF IT. Good luck next week to the Engineers and the Union Dogs/Chargers/Colonizing Dutchmen in what should be a dogfight(pun intended) in the Shoeless Bowl

Union goes conservative in the 2nd half save one mid 4th  quarter drive where they opened it up. Bengals scored on a perfectly executed wheel route. Final 43-17. I jinxed Gluck. He missed his only 2nd half kick, an extra point. Fiore finishes with 110 yds, 3 TDs. Pacatte 18/28 270, 2 TDs.  Bring on the Red Hawks.
