yes next week could be the defining moment of this season

we’ve seemed to have recovered from that massacre in Reno and we’ve always had a potent rushing attack. Can Riley step up in a pivotal game like this? All that experience and talk about it will be put either be put to bed or lauded for its importance this time next Saturday.

KR sadly has not improved at all. I really wanted to believe he would pull a Canfield, but he doesn’t have it in him. Our passing game, or lack thereof, is our Achilles heel. On the bright side, we now appear to have a kick-ass defense for a change. Fun to watch!

Sure, but this UCLA pass defense has really been quite good, plus they let us run all over them. We gladly accepted the offer.

Just hoping Riley summons his ASU/Furd/UCLA 2009 game.

I don't believe this UCLA pass defense has been very good at all this season

They have faced two bad passing teams in KSU and Tejas which has inflated their stats.

Jeff Tuehl picked them apart last week and Luck had a good game against them.

by SDBear on Oct 9, 2010 4:01 PM PDT up reply actions  

Depends on what they give up on defense. For whatever reason, they were allowing 0 deep balls today.

Probably because Riley to Jones deep killed them last year.

Not trying to be a wet blanket. I am thrilled with what I saw today, especially against fucla. Vereen is amazing. I love our D.

I don’t really see it as a turning point for Riley – at this point, I think we know whats going to happen. He’ll hit some nice passes, miss some easy ones, make a couple mental errors, make a play or two out of nothing. The real hope is that he hits somewhere around 60% of his passes, doesn’t make a killer turnover and makes one or two touchdown plays – adding a good Vereen game to a decent Riley game would be enough with this defense to get a win.

by LeonPowe on Oct 9, 2010 3:57 PM PDT up reply actions  

But is it too much to ask for him to not take so many sacks? Allegedly “immobile” Longshore made his offensive lines look pretty good; Riley makes his look bad.

Go Bears!

by California Pete on Oct 9, 2010 4:19 PM PDT up reply actions  

I don’t know – but it seems to me that Longshore had much better lines. But Nasty Nate was really good at getting rid of the ball as well.

by LeonPowe on Oct 9, 2010 4:20 PM PDT up reply actions  

Sure, but Longshore wouldn’t have made that nice scramble and toss to Allen either.

by abaddon on Oct 9, 2010 4:20 PM PDT up reply actions  

Well, I suppose it beats throwing a pick.

But yeah – you’d expect a 5th year senior to have enough savvy to throw those away.

It feels great to win again

Our defense dominated a very confident UCLA team, completely shutting down its running game.

Our running game looked good and the offensive line seemed to be pushing the UCLA DL around.

I loved the opening drive and the play calling.

by SDBear on Oct 9, 2010 3:52 PM PDT reply actions  

I only watched the second half, but except for a drive or two – we were driving their d-line back 2-3 yards on each snap. Pass protection wasn’t as good, but hell, let’s go 3 6 yards and cloud of dust

I am not sure he is going to get another chance. Tedford values ball security over everything else (as he should) and Ross could have cost us the game if we weren’t kicking UCLA’S ASS SO PROFOUNDLY HAHAHAHAHAHAH.

Seriously, though, I think Isi or Allen back at PR is going to happen.

I think JRoss is a solid returner in that he’s a guaranteed 5-15 yards because he’s shifty and hard to bring down. But I don’t think he has the pure speed/quickness to house it unless the blocking is amazing.

Marshall Inc. has to go up after the run blocking performance of the OL today

in fact, that is now 6 strong quarters of run blocking by the OL, however, traders remain worried about the pass protection of the unit, thus the modest gain of 88 cents per share today. Despite the pass blocking fears, I am going to rate this a strong buy.

Very good points. I’ll have to re-watch the film to get an idea.

I don’t think it’s fair to put it entirely on Riley or the WR’s or the O-line. It was multi-factorial. Riley missed some throws and reads.

He also had issues with coverage sacks.

He also had issues with being pressured.

From what I remember, I think the Oline did a pretty good job. I’d put the struggles on the passing game more on Riley and his receivers. To be fair, I don’t know what ucla was doing with their pass coverage. It blows my mind that they wouldn’t sell out to stop the run.

JT and Ludwig have now worked with Riley for over a year

I think they have tried just about everything. I think at this point it has to be on Riley. He is an average QB, that has shown very little growth over the last three years. Right now I would take Jeff Tuel of WSU over Riley.

Now is Riley the most talented QB on the roster? I think that is up for debate, he is obviously the most experienced QB.

by SDBear on Oct 9, 2010 5:07 PM PDT up reply actions  

That's what worries me

Riley is what he is. But what he is is a senior. Neither Mansion nor Sweeney have ever gotten any appreciable live-fire reps that I can think of. I shudder to think what next year will be like if there’s no Vereen to carry the load…

Exactly, the over throws I have come to expect and learned to live with

the thing that frustrates me with Riley is often his decision making. He is a 5th year senior with three years worth of starts under his belt yet he still seems to make bad decisions that you expect from a first year starter.

Cosign

There were 4 or 5 times I saw him look like he was taking off to run, only to throw it – when there were 5 or 6 yards easy in front of him.

Then again, given what happened in his first start, you can see why he might be averse to running it…

Nyquil/Dayquil is the best fever reducer for me

In other words, Go Bears!

by royrules22 on Oct 9, 2010 5:27 PM PDT up reply actions  

The problem w/ Nyguil/Dayquil is that they bundle things together. Depending on your symptoms, it’s usually better to take them individually.

For example, if you just have a fever, take acetaminophen or ibuprofen. If you have congestions, then you take pseudoephrine and possibly some loratidine.

Ibuprofen also works as a fever reducer (anti-inflammatory). But, it varies person to person. If acetaminophen works well for you then you’re wise not to mess w/ the booze. Don’t eff your liver.

XML is not a scripting language for the most part so those were probably config files.

I do know there was a lot of C++ there too, so I would say C++ with Lua.

I just threw out XML because it was the closest to coding that the testers and the test leads ever got to messing around with the game.

On running the ball so much:
“We felt like we were going to challenge them down hill. Some of the teams that (UCLA) has been successful against are spread teams. Houston is a spread team; Texas is a spread team. Stanford played them well running down hill against them. We felt we were going to test them downhill and make it a physical football game. We still need to throw the ball better though, no question.”

On Cal QB Kevin Riley:
“He needs to improve. We need to improve as a pass offense. He needs to make some better decisions. He needs to throw the ball away when we need to throw the ball away. He needs to complete the ball to guys that are open. He didn’t throw any interceptions, which is a good thing.”

Riley shoulda been picked at least once today. IIRC, we nearly had two turnovers in the same 3-and-out series sometime in the 2nd quarter.

The quote about Riley is funny to me. After one of the sacks, I voiced displeasure at his refusal to throw the ball away. A fan in front of me decided to turn around and yell at me for questioning Riley. His argument was that I should not question Riley because I’m obviously not qualified to play college QB like Riley is. Clearly, Tedford needs a talking to too. I don’t see Tedford going out to quarterback the team.

Yep. I actually think he handled that one very well. He was aware of the blindside blitz and made 1 guy miss. Almost made a play out of it. The sack wasn’t even too bad. On 3rd down, taking a sack isnt much different from throwing it away.
