    We found a QB today, it's nice to see someone running the offense who isn't hyperventilating and about to pass out.

    Browning looks like he can play, but all he is at this point is a guy with some potential. He was terrible before the final drive and made freshman errors on that drive too. It was to be expected, but if we judge him on his game tonight, he sucked.

    Frustrating ending but overall the team performed as I expected (win or close loss), which is better than what all the experts were predicting before the game.

    The team never gave up, the defense got really strong in the second half. The special team is well coached. These are all positives that we can build from and seem like a solid trend with this coaching staff.
    The offensive play calling was the biggest disappointment. It is something to play safe to help Browning, but it is counter productive if the defense can predict every play you are gonna run before the snap.
    The running game. I didn't pay enough attention to the OL but I thought the running game would do much better.

    How fitting that the game with great special teams is ended with a missed kicked caused by inept play calling

    Help me out here. How was the play calling the issue.
    We needed more hidden ball plays?
    Th hidden ball play went for 5 yards.....could have been more is FS Mickens wasn't the ball carrier.

    When your OL is consistently getting their ass kicked by the opponent, the play book is somewhat limited.

    Wow. I know they were yelling at the players, but that is bad coaching. They should know better than to spike it with 21 seconds.

    Nit picking a bit? Jesus Fucking Christ, how about the OL block someone for a change.
    The OL sucks. Yes, it is nit picking because it didn't matter. Still, for a coach that often talks about the little details, his clock management has been horrible a couple of times in close losses. Miles snapping the ball with 7 seconds on the play clock against Arizona was similar to this. Every team goes over these scenarios in practice. And I know they were yelling at Browning to wait. Why was the team so fucking unaware though? Pete is responsible.

    I couldn't tell, but it didn't seem like Boise state was trying very hard to shut down the run but they didn't have to worry about it any way. It as least seems that Browning isn't going to get killed out there and at least has some mobility. But they didn't really let him throw down the field a lot, which I thought was the whole reason you played the freshman and not Lindquist

    If we can play that shittily and only lose by 2, there is some hope for the future. This season is still over (we won't compete for pac title). Browning looks like he has what it takes to develop. When he starts to gain command of the offense, we will spread the defense.
