Great punters on both ends
Hankins – 49, 55
Anger – 52
And I hope we won't see Anger that much because we'll be scoring on every play!
In other words, Go Bears!
Hankins is up for an award this year… the one bright spot.

Why are people voting the we only played moderately well? How well would Cal have to play? -5 1st downs allowed? Going for 2 after every TD?
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
I voted "moderately well"
on account of the one fumble and the second near-fumble (if that’s what it was). ’Course, people are free to disagree with me.
Turnover
That’s huge!

Sorry Cory, but ASU has the look of a team that wants to quit. If Cal scores twice, I think that would be enough

Nothing is enough. It needs to be 75-0 before you can feel even remotely at ease.

They looked pretty good on that offensive drive. Lets see if Cal can get out of their own end zone first.

So we got another version of Riley
who can throw but fumbling twice a quarter
This is why I said RUN THREE STRAIGHT TIMES

If we can’t trust Riley on a 3rd and four from the 8 then we’re in big trouble.

I don’t really get the point. OK, the color guy likes rock music. Good for him. Can we focus on the football game?

anyone want to argue about the defense now?
Could he be any more wide open? I could have thrown that ball
Sure, I’ll argue about the defense.
One play does not a horrible defense make. Up to that point they have been playing very well.
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
huh?
This has been happening all year…this is possibly the worst qb we’ve faced…and if not him, how about Tuel last week?
We gave up 17 points and won by a ton. I fail to see the problem everyone has with last week.
That last play was an awful play by our defense. We handed them a TD. But that doesn’t erase the excellent play of the defense prior to that.
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
WSU is a high school team
I’m sorry, but there’s no reason to be proud of beating the worst team in the conference and then trying to argue that the defense is great because of it, That’s what they’re supposed to do
I think a little less than average
Would 5th in the Pac be average? I would guess we’ll end the year 5-7th
it also bothers me that people criticize the D constantly on bad plays but never talk about what they do right.
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
not trying to argue
but what do they do well? or right? I would say they stuff the run pretty well normally. Anything else? the pass d is horrendous. I dont get the 10-yeard cushions on every play. Weren’t the dbs and safety supposed to be out strength of this team? Also, where’s the pass rush?
as I write this, syd-god gets a pick…stoops on me.
I guess my feeling is that there is a TON of bad defense in college football. Every week I watch teams give up 400+ yards through the air and 40 or 50 points.
Is our pass defense good? Nah. But it’s not horrendous either. We pick balls off. We break up passes. We do things right. It’s not all good, but it’s not all bad either.
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
Another part is that true we might not have the worst D. BUT compared to pre-season outlooks (our own not the polls) our defense is heavily underwhelming.
In other words, Go Bears!
Yeah
Maybe thats why I’m so underwhelmed. I thought the d-line and secondary were going to be awesome…but not so much. Any half-decent QB is going to look great with all day to throw (no pass rush) and 10-yard cushions on every play by te DBs
Because Gregory hates us and he’s stupid and he needs to be fired.

not a "zona troll". warriors got trounced by the suns last night, that was a waste of my time. and if riley fumbles another one, im turning it off. at least niners beat the cards
