What, you don’t like the skunk mixed with BO smell?

I haven’t looked. But Bottari with his glorious mane is on the sideline with a vest helping sign in plays.

We are 2-2 against then (and now) top-25 teams. 1 more (maybe 2 depending on AZ) to go.

BYU has played one ranked team and lost (Texas) with one more (OU).

We aren’t, but the coaches will. And they don’t care about our judgement or criticism on who we think should be the starter, backup, if they made the right decisions, etc.

We’ve had 3/4 B1G games (2-1) with one left + our 3 Big 12 games left with the 4-corner state schools (sorry, NM, I grew up with you but you are left out).

They would have (should have) announced by now – the stripes and Ute Pride were announced with enough time to plan. I would wear red. Black in the afternoon is dumb although it looks like high of 45 wouldn’t be bad. Earlier on sunny days that would not be nice.

Porky pig ‘it’s duck season’?

Yeah, our depth chart is more of a ‘top 2 players when healthy that don’t have a season-ending injury’ list. Doesn’t say who is healthy or actually going to play.

Yeah, kind of felt @OSU was the biggest game (or most important) of the year – on the road against a good PAC team. Since we lost that one, now Cal becomes the biggest game to get a win and back on track (and hopefully an improved offense).

I think we truly have Glover (all 5’8″ of him), a banged up Jackson, and … ? We’ve got to get Randle some reps or teach these freshman how to pick up blocks, right?

I’d have to think injury. I hope they totally game plan around his skill set. If I were Nate, I’d go all out with no pressure because it’d be unlikely they’ll pull you unless you are on your 4th turnover (knock on wood, please no). Didn’t Nate limp at the end of Oregon St. (maybe an ankle sprain)? I hope it was very minor. But one play away from a…[Read more]

True, but if you don’t have the talent or experience, sometimes it’s just not possible to score 1 more point than you hold them to.

And the last question … that is the great mystery of fans, forums, and diversity of thought. It’s our soap opera.

I feel like we have to beat who we ‘should’: Cal, ASU, UA, CU. That takes us to 8 wins. That is ‘you did your job with what you have and held it together’ land. Solid. Win the 50/50 against USC (our defense limits their offense, we actually score some points on their horrible defense, maybe getting a few defensive points to help), that’s a ‘ok,…[Read more]

The way we list our 2-deep doesn’t help, but:
WR-X: Parks, Simmons
WR-Z: Vele (just returned), McClain (injured)
WR-R: Pittman (injured), Matthews
LT: Fano (injured), Togiai
LG: Bills, Harrison
OC: Maea (injured, could return soon), Faaiu (but isn’t Kump generally taking C duties? haven’t paid close enough attention)
RG: Mokofisi, Kump
RT: Laumea,…[Read more]

The rest of the offense was still the same? He struggled a little more after their top receiver went out hurt. At least that’s what I saw. Also, USC defense really sucks?

Putting in QB2 (not even QB3, QB4) with the rest of the regular offense sure is different than playing a 2nd string Center (and shuffling the line), RB1, RB2, RB4 hurt or out for season, TE1 (Yassmin) should be doing better, but TE2 is undersized, TE3 is converted defense. McCain, Pittman hurt, so leaves us thinner at WR (Vele, Parks, Matthews).…[Read more]

This. But isn’t it ok for us fans to keep expectations as if all the 1st teamers (or maybe a few 2nd teamers) were still playing? kidding

I think we are probably on plan F with all the permutations we’ve had to deal with.

Coaches/Teams can’t control NIL money or direct it (well, wink, wink – with potential rules actually being discussed on this). That would have been between Cam and the deals. I truly think Cam thought he could come back faster (like his 1st injury) and he is busting his you know what to try to get there. But healing doesn’t speed up just by being…[Read more]
