This has been happening all year…this is possibly the worst qb we’ve faced…and if not him, how about Tuel last week?

by Trilogy44 on Oct 31, 2009 1:47 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

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.

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

by Trilogy44 on Oct 31, 2009 1:51 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I’m not arguing the D is great. I think they’re average.

The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS

by norcalnick on Oct 31, 2009 1:52 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Would 5th in the Pac be average? I would guess we’ll end the year 5-7th

by Trilogy44 on Oct 31, 2009 1:53 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

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

by norcalnick on Oct 31, 2009 1:55 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

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.

by Trilogy44 on Oct 31, 2009 2:01 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

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

by norcalnick on Oct 31, 2009 2:04 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

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!

by royrules22 on Oct 31, 2009 2:05 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

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
