They mentioned Buchanan was out first thing on the TV cast. Kind of weird because I didn’t see him injured at the SDSU game.

I too notice Eaton being more active. It seems after a stellar freshman year he bulked up for his new position and just didn’t seem to be as fast/active. It really looked like he was mentally committed last night.

well I think there could be some perspective put on the Utah State game. The only win Utah State has is against Connecticut who is awful. Utah State had 4 turnovers in that game. This is not to say Weber played a very good game and will be very stiff competition - their D is always very good - but the (Cal) Aggies - rather than the Utah State Aggies are going to be the best team they have faced this year. I had the pleasure of seeing Utah State beat BYU with Steve Young at QB in Logan in 1982 when I was getting a Master’s there. Was snowing and the place went wild.

Gonna need him (Rex Connors) and hopefully Buchanan back for the next 2 weeks. They are difference makers. Tattersall looked like he had a good game as well as Smalley. I believe one of those two got the start to replace Buchanan.

Scott Gordon was outstanding doing the commentary alongside Scott Marsh. His knowledge of the game and articulate comments after each play were very insightful. Really, really good!

Totally agree. What a nice surprise to have a very insightful and articulate person for commentary. I don’t know his background. When I googled him all I can up with is a former UC Davis golfer who made the PGA tour?

Finally Babb II.

Run defense has not looked good the second half.

Great play call.

Hawk is fired up

Second straight time allowing the edge to that running qb.

Seems like pass was under thrown again. Get it up where Castles can pluck it.

Slightly underthrown but good recognition on free play.

Now getting conservative.

that was a long attempt and 2 over 40 attempts that hit the upright isn’t terrible. But need to start making those.

The weak spot of the defense has been over-rushing on blitzes and wide open mid range passes as a consequence.

Didn’t hook it enough. Plenty of leg.

and continues to leave defenders jock straps on the field with his 360 spins.

Tompkins thrills. If he were a clock faster, he would be unstoppable

ditto. Really mixing it up.

Gilliam looks like he tweaked his foot a bit. Hope it is nothing.

You could see that coming with the rush. Good play.

The color guy on tv really knows his stuff.
