To Do list for Rutgers

[cr8zyncalif]

Add as necessary:

- Wrap up on tackles.
- More consistent long snaps.
- Falk makes a decision after 2 seconds, then either throws or (if there is a seam) runs. Regardless, after 2 seconds he has to do something.
- WR's watch the ball until they actually have possession. Sort of like watching the ball until you have hit it in golf. The big run after the catch doesn't start until the nitwits actually catch the ball.
- Outside defenders look up the word, "contain", in the football dictionary. Quit getting sucked inside against a QB who can scramble.


Rutgers is beatable if we do most of the above. But will we? I have no idea.

To do list for fans:

Spend more time with your family. If you insist on watching the game, drink, heavily

That's always been our to do list.

I think Bender is our guy for Rutgers.
I think we will play a lot better. Would it surprise me if we win...yeah a little...would it surprise me if we lose. Nope.

Bender throwing into triple coverage was frustrating, even though it was desperation/garbage time. Hope he's not from the school of forcing things like Halliday was. I didn't really have much of a problem with Falks play, for a first game.

He had a minute left thrown into a game all of a sudden trying to win in he rain. I'm not going to judge him on that. If he made it work its a miracle. But I didn't expect much.

So was Falk though.

Like I've said several times, we are in more danger losing at home than we are on the road.

Just look back at our wins under Leach; @USC, @Arizona, @Utah, @Oregon State, @Cal. Did I forget any? And let's not forget our "good" road losses; @Auburn, @ASU (last season, when the wheels fell off late).

We are not good at home with a few exceptions. Having said that, in no way did I think we were bad enough at home to lose against a Big Sky team that is not well-regarded.

I may regret saying this, but we may actually look completely different against Rutgers and pull off an upset. And no, I am not drunk now.

We struggled week 2 against Nevada last year but I am hoping that's the case. I can't imagine anyone thinks much of us at the moment.

It wouldn't surprise me if we beat Rutgers either. Well a little at this point. We are terrible at home though. Are the players partying the night before? I have no idea what is up. But we suck at home.

We suck period until proven otherwise.

Hi fans. Not to rain on your bad day. It seems a lot of fans complained about the rain. It may rain for the RU Wazzu game this week.

Well if it does we are hosed because we can't play in the rain apparently.

It says 10% chance of rain for me.

Our local weather guy on our board says:

Looks like a very uncertain pattern into the weekend with warm conditions and at least moderate chances for showers. This forecast is likely to remain uncertain until close to game time. After another very warm week, a series of frontal systems is slated to affect this area late in the week with it being possible we'll see a stalled front Friday into Saturday with impulses riding up along it. If we see a stall and a shortwave or two rotating through our area, it would likely be warm and muggy with some showers and t-storms. However, it's also possible a secondary front comes completely through the area by Saturday, triggering showers early, but leading to clearing and cooler conditions for gametime.

Watch this thread, for updates. This guy is pretty good.

Well we'll see how it goes.
