Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Would you be happy holding CAL to 24 or less?

245

    24 depends on the circumstances. If our 2nd and 3rd stringers give up points that is fine. If we win 25-24 I won't be happy. My goal for the season is to have us score more points in our lowest scoring game than we allow to our opponents in their highest scoring game. To date our 31 scored against Utah is higher than our 28 allowed to Arizona... so far so good..

    One thing that's an issue is time of possession of all things. We score too quickly, even when trying to run with gaskin, he got 12 yard chunks at a time. Then the stupid penalties on defense on third down that extends drives.

    In other words, our defense is playing better than the scoreboard shows. In 1991, no one scored on our 2s and 3s either.

    so you're saying if we do a better job of shortening the game and keeping our defense off the field the better chance we'll have at winning the game?

    They have played 2 defenses with a pulse. Utah and USC. They scored 24 and 23. We? Should hold them to at least under 20 unless we are winning 63-0 in the 4th and put in the 3rd and 4th stringers.

    I would only be happy with 3 or less.

    It's been many moons since that happened...'97 was last time we gave up 3 or less to CAL.
    I have high standards.

    Were @Swaye 's ancestors more like nomadic, teepee Indians or semi-settled longhouse ones? I haven't lurked here long enough to know if this has been covered previously. I also get confused because the premium chat room logo shows a teepee but references a wigwam.

    I think if we outscore them we will remain undefeated.

    Is that some kind of advanced stats prediction bullshit?
