Loss is 100 percent on the offense. An even mediocre offense scores 40 in their sleep against this pathetic Cal defense. I was wrong about this offense. Last week was an anomaly.

So I said to David Eckstein, "You promised me, Eckstein, that if I followed you, you would walk with me always. But I noticed that during the most trying periods of my life, there have only been one set of prints in the sand. Why, when I have needed you most, have you not been there for me?" David Eckstein replied, "Because my little legs had gotten tired, and you were carrying me." And I looked down and saw that I was still carrying David Eckstein.

Our receivers for the most part are awful. Especially without Patrick. We're slow and we can't hold on to the ball

Holding Cal under 30 is an achievement for our D. But you're right, the O has to finish drives.

Okay I take it all back. I apologize.
This is the tweet I meant to take back. I really apologize. Oh ye of little faith
I think Cal's defense is 11th in the PAC-12.

Well, against the second-worst D in the conference you've gotta score from the one with the game on the line. Moeai has to catch that pass when it hits him in the hands. In the end we got outplayed.

If you can't punch it in from the 2 you don't deserve to win.

I agree Cal earned it.
i wonder if Moss was supposed to run right on that play. Instead, he ran right into the spot vacated by the pulling left guard.
bummer.
time to learn a little humility, I guess.

We deserved this loss. We had our chances and we failed.
The whole timeout issue with the officials certainly made things more interesting.
Utes had to rush more than they wanted to. Part of the game.

Yeah, it looked like he ran straight into a wall. I just watched it over again a few times and it looked like the hole was supposed to be on the right.

You have to occasionally pull the ball on a read option. I don't think Williams pulled it once. And the pass to Moeki at the goal line? Ugh...

Williams did not shine. He looked very average this game. Cal's defense has been bad so far, but they looked great against us.
Is it possible the o-line was gassed after running 97 plays?

The pass to Moeai was the difference. We didn't make that play.
This is one of those games where it was a shame that someone had to lose.
It was a great call and it worked. He just needed to hang onto it.

Troy needed to wait 1 second longer to throw it to let him get some more separation, and it needed to be about a foot lower. If he caught the ball above his head with his back to the end zone as it was thrown, he would not have been able to gather, turn, and get in, would have been tackled, and the clock would have run out.

'How many chances did we have? No excuses... we failed against a crappy D.
So where do we go from here? I hope the team (the O-line, especially) gets mad and decides never to let that happen again.
I still contend that we still don't know how good this Ute team is. We haven't yet beaten a P5 team that is playing well.
