There’s the Love Horse

 

[NDBoiler]

Just got home and rewinded the game to the beginning. KVA is freaking huge for an EE.

 

[LifelongFan]

Nice blitz pickup from Love on that drive too. Impressed by him all day.

 

[NDBoiler]

The players overall look to be in great physical shape.

 

[NDBoiler]

Aeneas Williams is also jacked

 

[LifelongFan]

That throw on the move from Carr made me perk up a bit

 

[LifelongFan]

Sevillano punked Otting right there.

 

[Riddickulous]

What a strike

 

[ND87]

Pretty ball.

 

[Mass MoCA]

I'm struggling to remember another qb who looked as good as Carr in the blue/gold game. All the qb's have been solid but his throws have been special.

 

[BabyIrish]

The way Carr reads the field right now is crazy for his age. Tell me why he shouldn’t be the starter!?

 

[Irish2155]

Dime

 

[FWIrish4]

This team is going to be pretty damn good this fall…

 

[Henges24]

All the QBs have looked solid

 

[stlnd01]

Not watching but based on the chatter it seems like we have a very good dilemma to have at QB?

I haven't been impressed by Angeli's constant check downs honestly but he's done way better after getting comfortable. I think in previous years we'd be hyped if any of these would be our starter.

 

[LifelongFan]

I understand the Gilbert hype.

 

[ND87]

And Angeli has a beaut of his own

 

[ND87]

Ughhhh Greathouse....

 

[Irish4life]

All 3 QBs led multiple TD drives and looked good doing it. All 3 had incredibly impressive throws.

 

[NDpendent]

We have 4 QBs on this roster who could be starters at a majority of power 4 teams this year.

Great news on the QBs, any updates on the D?

bigger than u would think

bigger than u would think

We are showers AND growers.

I tried to watch the OL play on both sides and they were fine. My biggest takeaway from both units is just how skinny Wagner looks out there. That and RJ Oben and Onye just punked their guys on a couple rushes…but other than that they performed well. The gold OL especially had some nice lanes for Payne.

 

[NDPhilly]

With solid OL play this team should go undefeated. Figure out a way to score enough on A&M and 2024 season will be fun.

 

[MacIrish75]

Also you can’t tell me that Aeneas Williams isn’t the reincarnation of Kyren. The similarities are just so striking.

Anyone have a link to a game replay?

Anyone have a link to a game replay?

I know it’s typically on YouTube within 24 hours

Angeli showed himself to be a great game manager and QB. He's not going to stretch the field like Carr and Minchey did, but he was smart and was great at moving the pocket as well as a few scrambles. He was very safe.

Carr looked to have the best arm and made some great passes. He's absolutely the future, he was impressive as an early enrollee.

Minchey had a couple really great drives, especially the one in the 2nd half where he made a couple longer throws to score. His 1st half wasn't very good other than one nice scoring drive. He struggled the most I felt, although the Gold team didn't have as many weapons as Blue did (Love, Greathouse, Raridon, Aneyas, etc). Minchey had a bad pick as well as a fumble. Payne had a couple fumbles too. I still think Love is our best back right now, but it makes sense that he's such a weapon we're getting him reps in the Slot. Minchey showed that he has wheels today. He wasn't bad, but he was probably the most inconsistent of the three. He seemed to stretch the field more than Angeli though.

If I had a depth chart based on today I'd put them Angeli 1st, Carr 2nd or even 1b, Minchey 3rd.
