If Cal gives up a touchdown on this drive, I fear the team may quit.

Pitts defense is marginal and Bloesch is making them look great.
Yep, this should be a win tbh. Pitt is ranked because they are 5-0, but they are 5-0 against absolute dog**** competition and are not great.


We are their 6th dogsh** opponent.

Great chance for D to turn this around. But this is Cal and will give up big gains on this drive.
Get ready for some 3rd and 4th down conversions

Cal is 0-1 vs FSU.
That's why I say should. Should be 5-0 with even meh coaching. Our coaching staff turns every advantage into disadvantage.

That should have been stopped for a loss.

We are experts at turning TFLs into 8 yard gains.

-When in defense.

Bloesh is opening up the playbook, but it is so random, a reverse when we never run wide, a QB run on the fake jet sweep when we don't run jet sweeps….
Mendoza making quick throws upfield off play action on first down is money. The one run outside behind the TE went for a TD. Just stick with what is working.

That's uncatchable. Jesus Christ what kind of game are these refs calling?

It's so sad to watch them fall apart and crumble against a dog **** team like Pitt.. At least against Miami and FSU it was talented players they were facing.

So the defense has prevented a Touchdown once in the last 7 drives I believe.

It appears we, players and coaches, did not all come to play today; unfortunately the refs did.

I take it back. No 3rd and 4th down conversions necessary.

Guy is a bad OL coach thrust into a role he has no idea about. He is just a grab bag play caller.

Monster penalties, missed tackles, bizarre play calls…. I don't want to pile on the coaching, but all of these issues are coaching issues.

Well, now that the Raiders are gone, it's up to us to take on the mantle as the East Bay's undisciplined and penalty-prone team, right?

If you know you're about to get beat bad, a PI is better than giving up a potential TD.

Total lack of discipline. 7 penalties barely into the 2nd quarter.

I can't remember the last time I saw a referee make the "uncatchable" call.

Pitt is 5-0. They just have better coaching.

I'll reiterate 2 things…
"Coaching in the collegiate ranks matters more than any other factor…give me Nick Saban coaching Texas State and I'll give you a natty by year 3"

And what I said preseason watching the players, "from a talent and depth perspective this a 10 win team if not better. The only thing that can hold them back is Wilcox himself"

Welp!

We don't tackle well
We commit lots of dumb penalties
We're undisciplined
Our play-calling is inconsistent

There is a single fix for all of these . . . .
