We’d get 17’d- up by them now.
Glad we played them when we did

What narrative? We suck. No agenda, no prejudice, no narrative. We suck, a blind man could see it. We haven't been this poorly coached since Croom possibly Felker. I admire your hope, I really do, but open your eyes.
It’s easily our best win, and probably will be when the dust settles on the 2023 season. They’re solid. Their coach deserves a ton of credit for that rebuild.
The reason they are rolling now is because they replaced the turnover prone QB de Laura (who a lot of people on this board loved because he was mobile, sound familiar?) with the backup Fafita, who doesn’t turn it over a ton and isn’t reckless with the football. They are undefeated since making the QB switch. The only reason we won that game is because Arizona turned it over five times, with four de Laura INT’s. And we still had to go to OT to do it.
4 INTs, and at home. And we barely won in OT. Got all the breaks. Good win, but doesn’t support your narrative.
Good! Maybe they'll count that as 2 wins so we'll hit 6 and get a bowl game.**
Good coach, an
We were the only team he really turned it over against though. Competition wasn’t great but de Laura is 55-89 for 727 yards with 7 TDs and 1 int in his other 3 games
I remember hearing before that game that of de Laura’s 13 INTs last year, 11 were thrown to middle of field. I think 4 of his 5 were middle of field throws against us. He stopped throwing to middle of the field and they came back and took us to overtime. We were very lucky they didn’t make that change any earlier in that game.
I know it says something, but it makes me sad to see that we had a better team than we have right now later in the season. I love to win games, but all I ever ask from a first-year coach is that they improve the team from the beginning to the end of the season. We have significantly regressed.
They gave up 4 pass interceptions and a fumble and still doubled our passing yards even w/ those 4 interceptions, plus still had 7 more minutes time of possess. Then w/ all of those gifts we still had to go to OT. That's a bad loss for them and for us, a W is a W.
No, but it does mean we do have one quality win. This place reads like we are winless. We are about a 6-6 team, even Vegas thought so at the start of the season. I did too. Now will we actually win six? Time will tell. Some of y'all are reading what you want to into the above statement because it's me. I'm waiting to let things play out before I say what I think about the staff. I have an opinion, but it could change in November.
I've said since they beat us, they are team that can beat USC but also lose to Stanford
