Cam is a talent, but needs a ton of growth. He's as bad as Falk, standing back there patting the ball too afraid to throw into a tight window and creating negative play after negative play, except without the positive downfield plays to offset them.

Morris is out of his depth and needs to take his D2 garbage back to D2. He's managed to completely neuter CW's mobility and is setting him up for more INT's with those high school tunnel screens.

I'll reserve judgement on the D until we get all of our players in place, but CJD better have Lamont Thompson, Billy Newman Jr, Jason David and Marcus Trufant type players lined up to come play at WSU if he plans on leaving his secondary on an island every play. Bo Nix was the only reason Bo Nix didn't completely destroy us, so I'm thankful for that.

I would have been ok with losing in a normal, mature team way, but this just reeks of the stench of lovable loser Cougs who always manage to Coug it despite showing they can come out swinging with the "real" football teams.

Feels bad. Feels really bad.
 
BLAME THE REFS WHO FAILED TO CALL A BLATANT, OBVIOUS FACEMASK.

it was so bad, the TV broadcast crew was talking about it.

That facemask SHOULD HAVE BEEN FREAKING CALLED.

It should have been 1st down, after a should have been called facemask, with about 2 minutes or less to burn for WSU win.

They showed replay after replay on it, in addition to talking about it.

The defender grabbed the WSU WR's facemask and yanked it around on a swivel to help tackle the WR out of bounds.

Stop.

Just stop.

We don't need a miracle facemask call if we take care of business any time previously in the game, like not giving up a personal record... what... 450 yards to Bo Nix? Or not throwing a Pick 6 on (another) WR screen?

The refs were poop. They're always poop. Its just part of the game, which is why you don't leave it in their hands.

So again, stop. This is an ignorant take.
 
Can Ward can’t read the whole field. Missed a few easy and sure TDs to Strib. QB play is one of the parts of the team that is suboptimal. Play calling is another. Also going to zone and prevent is a death sentence.
Very DK-esque summation of the game.

Well done.

Also, that last drive or two - was it just me or did he stare down one target on several plays?
 
Also, as much as it pains me to say, the right team won this game.

We needed several penalties and circus plays just to keep our last two scoring drives going, and Oregon simply demolished our defense.

I feel bad for the D because they are fast and fun and exciting, and it feels like they're put in either a position to destroy the offense or be completely humiliated by the offense - there's no happy medium.

Penalties are part of the game.

If a team commits BLATANT, OBVIOUS penalties, they have to, must, should call them.

If you don't call blatant, obvious penalties, then might as well not have rules, not have refs, etc.

It wasn't a MIRACLE facemask.

It was the WR getting open, catching the ball, RUNNING HARD, etc, to the point where if the Oregon player doesn't BLATANTLY, OBVIOUSLY facemask him, the WR might have broken the tackle, gotten a first down.

Because of that the SUPER LEGIT NON MIRACLE PENALTY should have been called and should have been 1st down 10, 2 minutes or less to burn for a coug win.

Whether it's OBVIOUS, BLATANT TARGETING, or BLATANT, OBVIOUS DEFENSIVE HOLDING, OR BLATANT, OBVIOUS FACEMASK, etc, it's NOT A MIRACLE, ITS A FREAKING LEGIT PENALTY, THAT SHOULD BE CALLED.

It wasn't a ticky tacky, wish, washy, borderline, MIRACLE penalty.

If it had been, then it wouldn't have been a big deal.

Wishy washy, ticky, tacky, borderline, questionable, MIRACLE penalties, dont get replayed over and over and talked about a lot unless they are WRONGLY CALLED.

it was a SUPER LEGIT, NON MIRACLE PENALTY that was uncalled, missed, and that's why it replayed over and over, and why it was talked about for a long time by the TV crew, and it will probably be replayed, talked about in sports center, as that's how bad it was.

STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR, STOP LEGITIMIZING GAME HELPING, GAME DECIDING, SUPER BAD BLOWN CALLS BY REFS.

That's part of why the officiating is so bad, because no one holds them accountable, and no one is allowed to hold the Refs accountable, because you, everybody else JUSTIFIES, EXCUSES the SUPER BAD CALLS by saying "Well they shouldnt have let the game come down to one bad blown call by the refs".

Well how about holding them accountable, and recognizing that IF THEY HAD DONE THEIR JOB COMPETENTLY, AND NOT SUPER BADLY BLOWN A CALL, SUCH A OBVIOUS, BLATANT, SUPER LEGIT, NON MIRACLE, ETC, PENALTY, WSU or INSERT NAME would have PROBABLY won.
