I’m not necessarily sure that’s Kevin Riley and not my friend, Robert Heagle.

I know it's important for the Pac-10 to look good...

…but do I really have to root for Arizona? I just can’t*. I guess I won ‘t mind them winning if I can walk away knowing that the Wildcats are nowhere near as good as all the preseason/national media hype. (So far, that’s appears to be the case with both $C and UA!)

*I really can’t seem to root for any Pac-10 team except, for some strange reason, Oregon State. Bowl season is different; I like the Pac-10 to have a good showing, but as far as regular season, not so much.

The Cal secondary is going to have a tough time defending Arizona’s 6’4" star receiver Juron Criner.

by Berkelium97 on Sep 3, 2010 7:25 PM PDT reply actions  

It still boggles me that our porous pass defense managed to keep them in check last year.

I wonder if Pendergast will put Nbabuife (our tallest CB) on Criner.

Or, if he’ll just rely on Hagan/Anthony to jam him. Hard to give safety help with their scheme.

I’m really curious how an NFL guy will scheme vs. the Air Raid. It’s hard to get pressure on Foles because so many of their patterns are quick. Ideally, we play tight and man up. Might have a better shot at Anthony/Williams/Hagan/Nbabuife being athletic enough to stick their receivers…still not sold on our LB’s and safeties being able to cover zones effectively.

Old Toothwrangler

by Kodiak on Sep 3, 2010 7:30 PM PDT up reply actions  

Because Foles couldn’t throw well past 10-15 yards. And that’s where our weakness was last year.

Email: bearsnecessities@gmail.com

by Avinash Kunnath on Sep 3, 2010 7:33 PM PDT up reply actions  

Yeah. If we jam their receivers and keep the LB’s up tight, we have a shot. Their only counter is to throw the fade or rely on longer patterns. (not Foles strength) That burned us when we played Texas Tech…but I think/hope/pray that our CB’s are more athletic this year.

by Kodiak on Sep 3, 2010 7:39 PM PDT up reply actions  

It will be a huge test for the D

The front seven has to be disciplined to handle all those short routes and receptions behind the LoS. If not, it could look a lot like that painful USC defense from yesterday, where overpursuit, missed tackles, and bad angles helped the Hawaii offense excel brilliantly. Thankfully the front seven is a strength for the Cal D.

Well, shit, the Air Raid is just the Bill Walsh West Coast Offense put in the shotgun and taken to its logical extreme, so I don’t think Pendergarst will have that much trouble with the concept of a quick, high percentage passing offense.

Even more frightening is that he’s helping Arizona open up a deep game, a component their offense was sorely lacking last year.

Pretty darn scary seeing the improve accuracy on the deep ball and Criner’s ability to catch friggin’ everything.

But, he has all day and Criner can easily out-athlete anyone Toledo has. Hopefully it’s a different story vs. Pac-10 caliber competition?

Its nice to hear the ESPN announcers gushing over the talent in the Pac-10...

but it’s not like Arizona and USC have played teams who had a remote chance to win. Brock Mansion would probably look like a star against those defenses.

Brock wasn’t able to look like a star against our last year’s pass defense.

But yeah, the talking heads are just filling time at this point. If we weren’t starved for football, we wouldn’t even bother watching the first couple of week in most cases. We’ll know more when we see how the Pac-10 does against credible competition. I am curious about OSU-TCU.

No. Too many new starters on D + new QB = early struggles.

TCU has a chip on their shoulders, several returning starters, almost a home game, and an explosive offense.

But if they played in a bowl in Dec/Jan, I’d bet on OSU.
