3rd play from scrimmage set the tone

After going nowhere on Borghi’s fist two carries, the Cougs faced 3rd and 10. JDL delivered. IMO, set the tone for the rest of the night.

I thought the same thing, really important play.

I just really loved the play calling and the execution throughout. Running first, high percentage passes, no turnovers. Getting first down on first and second downs, rarely getting to third down. I was a little surprised we didn't test them deep at some point, but I assume there was a matchup they didn't like.

I initially thought the same thing. But then I realized they were doing the smart thing: sticking with what worked.

And a shout out to Donovan Ollie, kind of the forgotten man of the receiving corps. He caught several passes early, including that big early 3rd down catch, I believe. It was great to see de Laura spread his passes to all 4 receivers throughout the game.

all the receivers had big games. Not 1 drop and some very clutch catches.

unlike the UW WRs, who were epically bad last night. How many drops after being hit right in both hands with the football? To me, that's the same as a RB who can't hold onto the ball and you'd find yourself riding the pine if I was the coach.
