agreed… if we can outscore Furd even by one point in the 3rd Q, then we win this game.

For some reason we’re still playing too much nickle… not rushing anyone…. the question is can we pressure Pritchard in the 2H…he’s completing 70% of his passes.

i just started tuning in the 2nd half

i'm here to clean your pool but i don't have a pool *bowchica bowow*

by ch0ster on Nov 22, 2008 2:33 PM PST reply reply   0 recs

rush, rush, rush

not a single WR or TE caught a pass (mostly b/c Riley couldn’t connect with any of them)… all we did was rush and pass to our RBs.

by danzig on Nov 22, 2008 2:35 PM PST to parent up reply reply   0 recs

except

for 2 long plays (59 pass to Vereen, long run by Best) very ugly offense and decent defense. Two nice goal line stands – one to give a field goal one ended up a fumble.

okay

I’m feeling pretty good about the way the 3rd quarter is going.

Let's see some KOR coverage

if we can pin them again, we can get another 3Q score.

by danzig on Nov 22, 2008 2:39 PM PST reply reply   0 recs

it's so weird to see this team score...easily

havent seen this in a while

The upside for the Stanford fans is that they can beat the traffic or avoid the crowds on BART.

internet feed

Anyone have a live feed going online? Just got home from a NYC bar. Go Bears!

What are the Trees thinking. You’ve got to go no huddle at this point.

Jessica Mendoza referred to us as “Berkeley” earlier.

I love the look on Harbaugh’s face right now.

I think, barring a turnover or a big punt return, Riley’s day should be over. Let Nate get in there and enjoy his last big game.

didnt we try to recruit fua?

wow… we really shrunk the pocket fast.

by danzig on Nov 22, 2008 2:58 PM PST reply reply   0 recs

That swing pass only works when it fails so miserably that Best has to cut back across the field

by We Have Hair on Nov 22, 2008 3:04 PM PST reply reply   0 recs

hahhaaa true.

by danzig on Nov 22, 2008 3:04 PM PST to parent up reply reply   0 recs

We stilll have not thrown it to a WR yet...

we don’t need to run out the clock…
