Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Concerns from the desert

Penalties. 125 yards on 12 penalties. Unacceptable

OLine. Had 4 holding penalties, Fautanu got beat bad a few times, and Penix was sacked twice

D. Sloppy tackling, especially on those attempted sacks

DBs. Got beat a number of times and had to PI to prevent big plays



Good news is all of these are correctable, we got the win, and we have a bye.

    The DBs did okay. Zone’s receivers are excellent. Better than any others we’ll face all season, save for USC.

    The horrible misses on would be sacks drive me nuts.

    The penalties have been an mounting problem. Too much undisciplined shit overall. Which leads to

    Fucking Bernard. Terrible game and effort and the fumble wasn't even surprising the way he was playing.

    Grubb pisses me off. That is all.

    Yeah, they torched Stanford.

    Bernard was good sans the fumble?
    The way I said it made it sound worse than reality since he made some plays and put up good numbers. I thought he looked lackadaisical with the ball in his hands several times and mumbled aloud to myself that he was going to cost us at some point. Body language. He also had a pretty bad drop.

    Any bitching about Grubb is uncalled for. He’s been fantastic and is exceptional. Could we have run up the score? Probably. But game time pressure to forge what we need to execute to win down the road is more important. As is developing game film for opposing teams to review that will set you up to fuck them.

    Having lived through Donovan the Caveman and Jonathan “the random play generator” Smith, Grubbs is a national treasure.

    I hate to be nitpicking a 20-year old kid... But when he scored the 1-yard TD against Michigan State and then put his finger to his lips as if shush the crowd, I don't like that when you haven't done anything special. Then he coughs up the ball last night in a way that could have cost us the game. Hopefully it will help him develop some humility. But in looking at him, he has all the tools to be a big-time player in the future.
    Definite nitpicking… but accepted. Without Jalen and with the AZ D working to takeaway Rome and Jaylin, Bernard had to step up and fill the #3 role. Survey says… not ready yet. I’ve been hoping that Jalen’s injury is minor enough that he could’ve played the last two weeks, but they realized they could hold him out for a month to get him back at 100% for Oregon.
