If we lose Wilcox, we'll probably lose half the team to the transfer portal. Unless we have a star coach, it's just not gonna be pretty.
Players aren't stupid, we may lose more if he stays.

Carton has had about 8 sack chances and over committed on every single one.

Wrong angle over and over.

If he wasn't out of bounds, that should have been grounding.

He's outside the pocket.

Mendoza is ll balls, zero brains.

Quite possibly the dumbest decision making I've seen in years.

Doesn't the ball need to go past the line of scrimmage?

Mendoza has to recognize that he needs to run… there was a good 20 yd of green field for him.

Mendoza's decisionmaking has been so bad the last couple of games.

Pretty sure it made it pass the LOS. But also, the QB has to be in the pocket.

It was out of bounds from the minute it left his hand. I believe it is not where the ball lands but where it goes out of bounds.

Clearly more talent on Cal, and yet poor play calling, mistakes, and lack of fire...

Wide right, even from the left. lol.

Take a knee? Pathetic. I don't want him as our coach either. Embarrassing.

Nope. Draw a line from where it hits out of bounds to the sideline.

re: Intentional grounding


It's where the ball lands irrespective of whether it is inbounds/out of bounds.

There's an imaginary line drawn across the field that extends outside the field of play.

We should fake every field goal.

Man this game is totally different if we call a QB sneak on 4th and Mendoza runs for that first down. Just lame.

That half was painful to watch (and to listen to the announcers).
If you believe in forever
Then life is just a one-night stand
If there's a rock and roll heaven
Well you know they've got a hell of a band

Has to be in the pocket (tackle box):

I missed the first half, caught the last 2 minutes. Wow, we are explosive on offense! Just missed that FG, that's rare.

Mendoza's still trying to run the plays that the coaches are calling. Unfortunately, there's not much there. Cal's best plays of the first half have come from when Nando has improvised.

Hard to draw any conclusions watching two terrible teams play. We can't run the ball. Can't kick. And can't stop 4th down conversions. Same can be said about Stanford with the exception of their 4th down prowess. Turnover margin will decide second half.

The one conclusion is that Stanford is a much better coached team. Cal has a significant talent advantage but . . . here we are.

Tedford's in the stadium, so Mendoza didn't want to pull a Riley at the end of the game half. Thus he didn't run, despite having 20+ yards of open real estate in front of him.
