***WSU @ ARIZONA GAME THREAD***

[Coug1990]

Disappointing the offense has not scored their last two possessions. This game would be out of reach if they had.

 

[Coug1990]

Back to back possessions for Arizona results in 14 points. Back to back possessions for WSU results in 0 points.

I can't drink enough to calm my Randall rattled nerves. Time to switch to vodka.

 

[BleedCrimsonandGray]

A RIDICULOUS hold there that goes uncalled.

I'm honestly starting to believe that I don't know what holding really is. I just assumed that when you see a DL trying to pursue and he has one shoulder that is clearly being restrained from behind him it was a hold. Guess not.

 

[StormyCOUG42]

this is literally sickening... we've had multiple chances to put this away and all of a sudden our offense keeps stalling and our D can't stop them.

 

[chipdouglas]

Welp. Absolutely MUST get points on this next drive, and somehow I don't think 3 will be enough to win.

This is what you get when you go balls out in the first half and pack it in in the 2nd.

In the last 2 weeks we have scored 76 points in the first half and just 14 in the second.

 

[BleedCrimsonandGray]

Cougs suffering from Seahawk flu. Maybe CML has been having late night chats with Bevell...

 

[StormyCOUG42]

either the O or D needs to step the &*%^ up!

 

[chipdouglas]

It will make me ill if we squander such a great road performance now. What a shame to build such an incredible lead and then cap it off with an L?

 

[702coug]

where the hell is Tavares Martin?

 

[chipdouglas]

Oh now we're calling holding I guess

I'm honestly starting to believe that I don't know what holding really is. I just assumed that when you see a DL trying to pursue and he has one shoulder that is clearly being restrained from behind him it was a hold. Guess not.

Well apparently they're calling holding as of now...

 

[BleedCrimsonandGray]

that was a fcking ticky tack hold compared to some of the shh!t ive seen the wildcats get away with. seriously, what the hell refs.

 

[Suudy]

Oh now we're calling holding I guess

Well apparently they're calling holding as of now...

And no advantage gained. Crappy call.

 

[chipdouglas]

I absolutely believe we need 4+ more to win this game.

 

[chipdouglas]

BALLSY CALL on 4th down!!

Luke with the conversion!!

This game is ours with a TD.

 

[chipdouglas]

Great clock management with the game on the line.

 

[chipdouglas]

TOUCHDOWN COUGS!!

45-35 COUGS

 

[wulffui]

Exceptional drive. Big stones. Too bad we didn't take the points on fourth down.

 

[froropmkr72]

Great clock management with the game on the line.

I'm feeling the win....and maybe 8 wins this season.

 

[wulffui]

I'm feeling the win....and maybe 8 wins this season.

No, this just turned a likely four game losing streak into a likely three game losing streak, obviously.

 

[chipdouglas]

Defense is already on the bus waiting to pull out the stadium.

 

[Coug1990]

Recover the onside kick

 

[702coug]

unreal

 

[StormyCOUG42]

pitiful

 

[BleedCrimsonandGray]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

oh, what? I'm just doing my Cougar D impression. Spot on, huh?

 

[chipdouglas]

What a collapse by the D. I said it. We've given up over 70 points in the past 2 weeks and counting.

 

[702coug]

Dom best catch all day!

 

[wulffui]

You've got one job, special teams.

Good job, Dom.

Run-run-run-punt if necessary.

 

[chipdouglas]

Seems counterintuitive but I'd like to see us pass some here. It's what got us here and they can't stop it - don't give up on it now.

 

[froropmkr72]

Recover the onside kick

The TV guys keep talking about the front seven.....but I have to say that the front seven is better coached than last year. Does it have more talent? Oh, Luke is a winner!!

 

[wulffui]

Game over, run it home.

 

[702coug]

I don't trust these refs

 

[chipdouglas]

That was a TERRIBLE spot. We should have been a yard and a half forward.

But, BALL GAME!!

COUGS WIN IN TUCSON!!

 

[froropmkr72]

I don't trust these refs

COUGS WIN! COUGS WIN!

 

[froropmkr72]

COUGS WIN! COUGS WIN!

Love this team!!!

 

[StormyCOUG42]

happy we got the W... but our D was pathetic in the 2nd half. Absolutely horrid.

 

[BleedCrimsonandGray]

a) that was a bs spot. the OL moved the LOS a full yard and wicks had it easily
b) the OL moved the LOS a full yard! wow, that is impressive

 

[BleedCrimsonandGray]

oh yea, forgot to mention - nice showing by the Zona fans for Homecoming...

 

[702coug]

mvp? I can't decide. prolly Marks

 

[chipdouglas]

happy we got the W... but our D was pathetic in the 2nd half. Absolutely horrid.

Agree but let's take what we can get. First 3-game win streak in 12 years!! And our O is putting up enough points to bail us out.

GO COUGS!!
