Wow. Talk about a bad call.
The non-safety call was worse than the Locker play last week.
It wasn't even a judgment call. It was an obvious call. What a horrible non-call on the safety. It wasn't even close to not being a safety. The ball didn't get even close to 2 yards within the endzone line.
HORRIBLE CALLS:
Holding on Teofilo; No safety call; Facemask on Rulon Davis... what else?
Are these ACC refs?

So guys
This is why you wanted Riley! Big comeback time right?

In order to come back
We need to throw the long ball… regardless of the risk… whenever Terps get the ball they’re bleeding the clock big time… like OrSt did against us last year. If we assume we cannot stop their run and their TEs, then we need to strike FAST… like we did against AF.

Cunningham might be having one of those games… let’s go to him. In WasSt 05 he had a huge game… it’s strange… when he’s on… our entire team is always off. If that’s the case we need him to go long and catch some big balls like he did in WasSt05… that’s how we won that game.

Morning, Bear fans!
Despite my best efforts to wake up early, I totally missed the 1st quarter and part of the second. Did our boys look that bad in the 1st quarter too? What the heck is going on?!
I’m not throwing in the towel yet, because the game’s still relatively close, but holy cow, they need to get it together! Make some tackles! TRY, for crying out loud!
Oh, I’m gonna start the heavy drinking early this morning…Ugh.

Riley is killing you guys. Hanging onto the ball way, way too long, bad passes … you need a spark.

I guess my concerns about our guys not being able to engineer any sort of prolonged offenensive drive last week, or our very very poor defensive play from the first week were justified.
Ah well.

The Trutles are gearing against the run daring Cal to beat them through the air, and we just can’t do it. Riley has no touch and seems to be way too out of synch

Respectfully disagree
I’ve seen guys who were at least marginally open, and Riley was nowhere close. He’s not 16-of-32 because of coverage.
