So sick of Tedford. Why not trying running Bigelow in the redzone? Clearly, the passing plays with Maynard aren't working. Try something else you idiot. Insanity is trying the same thing and expecting a different result. Tedford is clearly insane.

Wow, just wow.

An average QB, we have the lead right now. A good QB, we're blowing them out.

Oh, and Bigelow not being in FOR ONE PLAY on that last drive just shows Tedford has no clue what he's doing. He's a playcalling robot with no regard to the rhythm of the game.


We would have blown every team out this year with any Div 1 QB

I can't believe Zach is better than our 3 Elite 11s.


This.

Also, if he is, everyone responsible for their development should absolutely be fired.

I've never said he's "very good". I have said that from what little I've seen, he might be the most prepared we have and with the swiss cheese O-line I don't want to get one of our underclassmen QBs killed.

Tedford ruins even good QBs, its unfair to expect a QB like Maynard to do well under him.

Why burn 2 TOs, why not have Bigelow in there? This is not 2nd guessing, we were all saying this during the drive. So bizarre.

Yea, I am contemplating just doing something else with my time. At this point it seems like they will just drop 14-21 more on us to finish it out. If we win, great, but I feel so beaten down by this **** offense that it isn't fun to watch.

SC couldn't stop Bigelow. Yet JT ran passing plays over and over. Just plain stupidity.

If USC starts running plays for their TEs I think we're done. We seem to be allergic to covering TEs.

The playcalling is atrocious.

Freshfunk - should we have used Bigelow in the 1st half? In the 2nd half?

I mean, he's not a "gameplan", as you say. But is Maynard to Allen? Tell me how we should have used Bigelow - baggage carrier? Water carrier?

5 trips to the red zone, 9 points (FGs). Such a great opportunity to win this game.

We have been give so many chances in this game.....fumbles, ints, open looks.....but it takes a special team to **** them away. Our coaches comprise that brain trust. How many other PAC-12 schools are donating to keep Fatfurd employed?

Five fricking trips inside the 15 yard line and we only have 9 points. Unfrickingbelievable.

Well, quite disappointing. Too bad we have no coaching or decent QB or field goal kicker. Although - he represents are only points.

Note to CJ: please stay off this website. You won't like what you see.

This is like losing a drag race to a car with deflated tires, we can't get over the SC hump even when they are giving the game to us.

IN the conference only Washington State allows more 3rd down conversions per attempt.

I know - run it until they stop us. Why put it in Maynard's hands like this against a good defense, esp. when it was working so well. Why are you like this JT? Ugh.

Because he has the football IQ of a low functioning retard.

He cannot go through a progression like any good QB can. Here is his brain:

Allen
Run?
Allen?
Run ALLEN


Sad, but true.

SAdly, I think this will be our lot in life until we get a real head coach who actually plays his best players.

And by "special team" you must be referring to the team whose coach comes to school on the short bus.

Our own head coach is killing our momentum with his personnel decisions. Bigelow needs mote touches. Or even if he doesn't touch the ball, he needs to be in there to give SC another dimension to defend.

Agreed.

This game may finally have pushed me into full Tedford hysteria. I simply can't take the guy anymore.

We have never been given a better chance to beat USC at the Colosseum. It feels almost like Tedford is losing on purpose. I know that is absurd, but it almost seems that way.

Without Bigelow in the game in the first half getting CARRIES, CAL was in so many 3rd and LONG situations that any athletic director who has half a brain-cell in their noggin would notice the difference.... Hello Sandy???

In our five goes inside the red zone how many rushes does Bigelow have? Has he been given any chances? Or do we simply prefer missing wide open receivers and throwing picks?

Memo to JT. Go down looking for a TD. A FG is not going to cut it. Try to win this game. Your D has allowed 3 points in the 2nd half to $C. They deserve your best.
