Since many, if not all, of our Marshawnthuasiasts will be away from computers during the game, we are putting up the Open Threads early. If you are confused as to why there are like 5 empty posts all of a sudden, START WITH THE FIRST QUARTER THREAD AND WORK YOUR WAY UP! Use this one to discuss the Third Quarter action for the Cal v. ASU game on 10.4.08. Here is the PreGame/First Quarter thread Here is the Second Quarter thread.
For those watching the game on TV and commenting live, don't forget to vote in our Insta-Poll. This will help capture the feelings of the electorate (i.e. Cal fans) as the game progresses. Were we really depressed after the first quarter only to feel great again by the 3rd? Now, historians can pour over this data. Which I'm sure they will. That's just what historians do!
We've been posting a lot recently. So, if you missed anything, look at our Post CSU thoughts, our CSU photos, photos, and more photos, the Fantasy Week In Review, and our debate over Top 25 rankings. Also, the Roundtable and Conspiracy Post and Eating the Enemy. Plus, the Q+A with House Of Sparky and my pathetic attempt at analysis

BearInsider wants Nate benched
Shouldn’t be surprised by any of this.

statistically they’re correct… but I wouldn’t yet. He’s playing very well.

Aren’t Longshore’s problems when Cal is trailing or the game is tied? That’s usually when he makes the big mistakes. When he’s ahead he’s generally chill.

Is anyone else having problems with espn360?

Amlost SYD… he’s really going for the ball
by danzig on Oct 4, 2008 2:29 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
Huh? He clearly moved didn’t he?
by BearsNecessity on Oct 4, 2008 2:32 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
yeah, but it easily could have been called on Syd
by DougOLis on Oct 4, 2008 2:33 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Not really, offensive motion usually gets the call. It has to be blatant to penalize the defense. Syd skirted the edge.
by BearsNecessity on Oct 4, 2008 2:33 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah that was definitely a lucky break
Could have easily been called offsides

Cignetti, that’s some weak playcalling. Short run, short screen, short rollout?
by BearsNecessity on Oct 4, 2008 2:39 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
I thought they normally open it up more when Longshore is playing. Why the conservative play calling today?
by DougOLis on Oct 4, 2008 2:41 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Three and out. Cool

Great read there
He just took it away from the receiver.

Rudy looks confused – “WHite guy?? WHat??”
by Shadwhand on Oct 4, 2008 2:43 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
Is it just me, or does Rudy look like Nate with hair and a goatee?

GOING FOR IT ALL!
Boateng! TOUCHDOWN!

Haha, maybe you should come back here during commercials.

Am I crazy or did Nate throw just throw 3 TDs in 3 quarters?
the sky must be falling.
by danzig on Oct 4, 2008 2:46 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
Are we heading for a Longshore specific hattrick? 4 TDs each quarter? :O
by Shadwhand on Oct 4, 2008 2:48 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
If nate doesn’t throw a INT in the 4th quarter, he’ll win the PR battle next week.

Does Nate still hold a ticket for Jessica Simpson?
by DougOLis on Oct 4, 2008 2:48 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
no… but he should cuz his play has gone south ever since he got married. He should’ve never gotten married.

Man, Hagan looks good too. I’m excited about next year and the peak of our secondary.

Ahhh crap
That should’ve been the game.

Reading this thread and using espn360 reminds me a bit of the ol' days
When I was a student and couldn’t be at the games, I’d hear the canon before seeing the TD on TV

Kind of. It was iffy Pac-10 reffing though.
by BearsNecessity on Oct 4, 2008 3:01 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
the jump? no, who was it on? I didn’t really see a pushoff but it might have been minor. Doesn’t that happen all the time though?
by DougOLis on Oct 4, 2008 3:01 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
shouldn’t that be overturned? kind of like Reggie pushing Leinart in against Notre Dame?
by DougOLis on Oct 4, 2008 3:02 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
Yes… but it never does b/c there’s never conclusive video evidence… it’s never called… but it is a penalty.
by danzig on Oct 4, 2008 3:03 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Why wasn’t the whistle blown? That wasn’t a hard call at all.

'Furd tried to do a hook and ladder
Of course they miserably fail like they always do. Irish win by 7.

apparently the 'leaping rule'
includes that if a player leaps on a kick, he can’t land on someone else, so that’s the reason for the flag …

Wow... TEdford called that one...
first counter pitch of the season. I miss that play.
by danzig on Oct 4, 2008 3:09 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
Run up the middle, run up the middle. I don’t miss that play.
