One Thing to not complain about

I read an article on Texas A&M today and thought of how big of a loss Daeshon Hall was. He would have been perfect at Buck.

you needed to read an article to think that?

That 4th and one was such a bullshit play.

Overall I thought the play calling was ok. Had some serious WTF calls but overall I thought it wasn't one of Smiths worst efforts (still needs to be fired).

I also don't think Brownings play warrants many complaints. Everyone just waits for him to throw a bad pass so they can bitch about how much he sucks. He made some bad throws but he also made some good ones.

I probably have more complaints about the defense than the offense from the game last night.

Brownsocks was ok last night.

You're right to focus on the defense. Giving up 28 to that mess was bad.

28 points without any special teams or defensive scores or assistance.

UA's average starting field position was the 21. Their scoring drives were 75, 94, 66 and 75 (plus an 82 yard drive ended on downs.)

They averaged 6.4 yards per play. That is not good defense.

I'm still scratching my head over why we thought a defensive line with three 300+ pounders was a good scheme for a spread offense. I don't care if they move well for fat guys, you need to get a faster DL package in there to matchup with a team like Arizona.

The good thing is the conference does not have as many running QB's. Dawkins is about the only one. I haven't seen ASU's QB, but it's nothing like it was a few years ago with Mariota, Hundley, etc.

ASUs QB Wilkins is very mobile, he's on par with Dawkins

Sounds a lot like people that defended Jaydon Mickens with "he caught more than he dropped".

believe it or not, half the board was bitching about it all game

It was better than normal but still too low against those Arizona midgets.

My bigger issue would be with the types of runs called.

THIS. Too many predictable delay handoffs where AZ's LBs camped out & caught our RBs at or behind the line of scrimmage. Speed it up with dives where RBs hit the hole hard and the LBs can tackle from the side or behind. 3 to 5 yards instead of 0 or 1. More Smiff fuckery trying to be too clever.

Almost turned the game off after the first 2 shit calls on UW's first series where two fucked up shit calls in a row couldn't produce a first down after 2nd and 2 if I recall it right. Complicated, mistake prone BS on the first drive. Had a sick feeling after that drive, but fortunately Ross's tightrope walk down the sideline cured it, temporarily, until VW started missing his field goals. Fuck.
