    Good post Auburn. I think the plan was to keep everything in front of us and limit big plays, but we couldn't get to Mariota with 3 and 4 man rushes, which ended up giving Mariota all day to find an open guy downfield. When he didn't have a guy he tucked it and picked up demoralizing first downs. It was not a good game plan.

    You can get coverage sacks if you can cover. We couldn't and didn't.

    If I remember correctly, Marriott is supposed to be a slow starter. Wilcox probably thought they might be able to get a cheap take away early and build off of it. Unfortunately, our DL played like a bunch of pussies and couldn't get any pressure. However, as fast as Marriott is I'm not sure he wouldn't have been able to just out run anybody who got remotely close anyways.

    "Coverage Sack" Is a nice way of saying the offensive receivers suck, and the defensive line equally sucks.

    Also, it implies that the quarterback can't run.

    If you give QB's and good WR's like Oregon has 5+ seconds to throw with no pressure, someone is coming open. You show how little you know about football with stupid comments like that. You just lost your goodwill after that idiotic comment.

    This was very insightful. I didn't realize our secondary would have trouble covering receivers for 7 seconds ...

    Can't wait for the breakdown next week.

    Their pass plays were thrown on time, as designed. Why are people so reluctant to blame the DBs? They screwed up repeatedly.

    Coaching , coaching, coaching

    Our coaches chose not bring pressure. Our kids should have been better prepared to deal with their pass routes.
    Yes, Oregon is great. They seemed to block and tackle a little better than we did. Mariotta is more accurate than Price. They are super fast. But we were also out schemed and out prepared.
    Now it's "blame the DBs"

    Nice flip flopping, as always.

    Also, lol at "block a little better than we did".

    Oregon's blocking was massively better than ours.

    It's so FS that Auburn keeps trying to pinpoint why we lost. He's been harping about how our coverage and now coaching sucked. Our OL sucked, our DL sucked, WR's and ASJ sucked, Price sucked, DB's sucked, coaching sucked. We needed a lot more than better DB play, Aubs.
