Our defense caved on 3rd downs. Lack of pressure and poor coverage resulted in cal having a 50% 3rd down conversion rate. Incredibly high.
Horrible blocking by our o-line.
Browning bad decisions.
Babushka deserves a shoe in the bag...so does Kawasaki.
That's it.
One more question. I was pretty high on our secondary...was the poor coverage a result of the lack of pressure/time for Goff to find guys, or was it just poor coverage?
We got pressure on Goff sporadically, but when it counted (3rd down) cal was able to convert. 50% conversion is very high.

The defense didn't lose the game. Turnovers, fucktarded play calling and fucktarded play by the offense did.
Mostly offense and turnovers, yes.
But dude, cal had 500 fucking yards of offense and their QB threw for 350. You can't win games if your defense doesn't get off the field on 3rd down.
It's troubling that Petersen really focused his comments exclusively on the offense. Again, offense mostly to blame, but 500 yards and 50% 3rd down conversion rate? It's a problem, coach.
DL - Really lacking a run stuffing DT. Need someone who commands a double team there. A lot of these guys are undersized. Ends are inconsistent with the pass rush. They'll get pushed around if we ever face a real OL.
LB - A couple good players. A few that totally suck. Clay comes to mind. Shitty in zone coverage and not quick enough to the gaps on run plays. Victor is a man.
DB - Strength of the defense. A bit soft at times. They get beat on inside slants too often and the Cal receivers did a good job of getting between us and the ball. Gotta make a hit on those or get under their arms.
Shitty tackling all around, but at least they forced some turnovers and improved in the 2nd half.

The defense gave up 23 net points, but still.
That was my point. The defense had a number of stops in the red zone and forced turnovers. The offense then turned the fucking ball over multiple times and failed to convert on third down multiple times adding pressure on the defense. I don't hang this loss on the defense, it's on Babushka, Peterman and their dreckfest offense.
Sitting at stupid brunch thing now. Getting steak though. I didn't even know steak was a brunch item. Fuck yeah. Anyway, crazy slut has texted 4 more times. Last one was 15 minutes ago. "You are a fucking asshole. Don't bother responding." Uh, dumb bitch, I haven't responded to you in 4 hours, or any of your other 8 texts you blew me up with. So, uh, thanks for letting me drill you in my hotel room bathroom. I think I am safe.

She would totally go for ass to mouth right now.
We must share the same brain. My exact thought. Do I try to run the gauntlet or not? If I shot that dumb bitch a text right now saying "I'm so sorry. I lost my phone for a couple hours. You were wonderful last night. Want to have a coffee?" I would be knocking that shit down an hour later. But, she might kill me after. Decisions.

Good luck the rest of the way out, Dawgs
