    it’s easy to imagine someone new being worse.
    Color guy should be someone who is a player or coach, and he should be allowed to correct Scott.

    What’s the expectation when you are playing the backup QB and you’re without your two regular running backs?

    What is the methodology for Athlons rankings?
    Comparative scores wasn’t kind to us this week because Tulsa underperformed.
    San Diego played a nobody and won narrowly, and we were way under the spread.

    I wasn’t saying we’re not improved over Tucker’s teams. But still room for improvement. I’ve never heard what Matt Coombs thoughts are. Whatever his philosophy, no complaints on the results.
    However from a fans perspective it seems like our receivers have a tougher time getting open than the other teams. Weber defenders seem to play right at the limit of pass interference, and we don’t seem to challenge receivers to the same degree. We turn things up in spots though.

    Regarding unsportsmanlike penalty after TD call, how can players risk doing choreographed skits when the rule prohibits:
    “Any delayed, excessive, prolonged or choreographed act by which a player (or players) attempts to focus attention upon himself (or themselves).”

    Leaving aside the wisdom or stupidity of the rule, it’s pretty clear.

    The first Borisch touchdown play is a bad call for the ages. After all our plays with TT, and knowing that Idaho has a similar player, Marsh doesn’t take note of either Borisch’s presence in the backfield, or his movement before the snap to the quarterback position.or him carrying the ball despite his flowing locks. Then he doesn’t pick up that it’s a touchdown.

    I know, but does our points against success mask opportunities to be better? The Idaho pass receivers said they like playing us because we’re almost all man. Maybe we need to mix coverages up more? But anyway, it would be interesting to hear what the philosophy is. Robert Tucker always talked about being disruptive. It seems that that’s deemphasized. The stats don’t show that because of the five interceptions against Dixie.

    Any normal media environment would have had a story about our new defensive coordinator and his philosophy before this season or last spring. . We’re now 11 games into his tenure. While it’s hard to quibble with the results, because we’re winning, we give up yards too willingly. It would be nice to hear what his philosophy is. Not much to go on from his past, because he’s a newbie.
    I still wonder if Eaton should be back where he played before, which I think was strong side linebacker. The rush position seems to be where good linebackers go to disappear. He had one assisted tackle against Idaho.

    Maybe they need a spotter if they don’t have one. No excuse for how many times they get players wrong. But the biggest drawback of the Dunning choice is that now you have two guys with Davis anecdotes but nothing for the other half of the audience.

    I agree with these guys 100% on our broadcast announcers.
    They are also right about their receivers, a lot of depth like us but their guys are bigger.
  • Week 5: Idaho @ UC Davis
    Idaho has an impressive group of receivers, lots of size, a good running back, a QB who can throw and their own version of Magic. We still held them to three scores. I think that’s impressive.

    Hopefully TT will get a chance to throw again. They e been inexplicably reluctant to let him throw.

    I wonder why Larison didn’t get a bigger role.

    Best game for our pair of senior wide receivers in a long while. Its usually been one or the other but they both had big games.

    Is that Aggie football, or what ?

    if they had watched us never let Trent pass for ten games it’s reasonable.

    Blake Thorpe had some catches

    The big run by Borisch was the key defensive breakdown

    I don’t think anyone had a good read on Idaho. This is their first competitive game. But their QB rotation has worked and they have some good big receivers

    I think the multiple QBs works just fine, if they have different skills.
