    I don't want to beat my chest, mainly because I don't want to find my old comments about how stoked for Tafisi I was in that recruiting class. If I'm just trusting my eyes, my immediate takeaways from the game were that Tafisi is our best ILB (I don't recall Wellington's name getting called a single time), Newton is our best running back, and I made my wife uncomfortable with how loudly I cheered every time a kickoff went into the end zone.

    Bowman pissed me the fuck off with more than one egregious loss of contain. I'm a Bowman fan, and this wasn't his best day.

    By the end of the year Latu will be starting over Bowman.

    Hadn't thought of Wellington's name not being called but you are right. Him and Manu repeatedly blitzed between the tackles and got absolutely stoned with ZERO to show for it.

    Tafisi will be on the field for more snaps than Manu for sure by mid year.

    Newton was our best back by far today. Savon just dances to much which he's done since his Freshman year.

    Tryon was disappointing. Don’t think he has the bend to be a real force

    Back up WRs really surprised me. Thought we had 11 of them only saw 4 snaps for Bynum 1 for puka. Fuller, Baccelia, chico were the only ones playing???

    I went to get food, who gave up the long TD before half?

    Even with that 62 yard busted play, only gave up 200 yards passing. Pretty solid day for the handful of mistakes the DBs made.

    That was a little disappointing, but our offense seems to take a long time for guys to understand. I think our offensive struggles and playing Cal week 2 played into it as well. We had to get the core guys going and get them reps.

    Taylor and Bryant also had a miscommunication on the coverage, both took the underneath area.
    Yep, confusion compounded by the fact Molden vacated that area on a nickel blitz that didn’t (quite) get home.
