Statistically this checks out

Really, Petersen? Leading 24-0 and using your timeouts to ice a kicker before a 60-yard FG attempt?

---

Why wouldn't you?

---

I wouldn't, dick move.

---

Agree! That calling of two consecutive timeouts was pure chicken sh*t.

At least we get the ball first in the second hat. Doh!!!!

So you'd prefer a 60 yard FG attempt which has a better chance at being returned for a TD than being good? I'll take a 2% chance at 7 vs. a 3% chance at 3. And before you say the INT could be returned, too, save it. Cal offense (with extra WR) has a far better chance stopping a return than the FG team against Pettis.

---

about an equal chance of a fumble, with 0% chance of a TD with a Hail Mary...

seriously. 4 seconds to get down field... 1-2 seconds of protection time. No chance of a score.

Actually laughing right now... at least something is funny tonight.

I thought the first was strategic - you don't know if we will Hail Mary or kick. The second might have been to ensure that we'd still try and kick. Did he do it a third time?

I'm watching Utah/Furd. Utah has a mobile QB. You need one to keep the defense honest. Decisive runner who feeezes the backers

---

You should see what Arizona's running QB did to CU today - and many here had the Mildcats pencilled in as one of our Ws.

---

I'm thinking McIlwaine starts next year. At least we're recruiting OL, but we need DR back along with some JC or great WR recruits. Our guys get no separation.

Not if you include Cal's current statistics.

In 1000 random games, sure. But if coaching was pure statistics, we wouldn't have coaches.

Honestly, calling a kick stupid, AND saying a Hail Mary with this line and 40+ yards to go is pretty funny. Both are about equally unlikely to happen (with our kicker). Neither is bad coaching with our line and our kicker.

Kicking was probably more likely. No way Ross lasts 4 seconds running arround.

Wilcox and Co. better recruit some playmakers at QB, RB, and WR quick, because this group is absolutely awful.

I prefer recruiting linemen. I would be happy with an entire class of DL and OL for the mid/long term success... A good pair of lines can win a lot of games.

Aaron Rodgers and tony g? F this guy. Did he even read the press notes before phoning this in? His ass should be canned.

Worst half of Cal football I have ever seen. I know we don't have world beaters but we need to at least run some kind of misdirection. No play action or screen game. No reverses. Just letting Washington dominate us with a 4 man rush. Giving this offense zero chance at success. Say what you will about Dykes, at least he kept other teams guessing to offset the talent gap.

---

You realize Dykes poor recruiting put us in this mess.

---

No one denies that Dykes was a recruiting abomination. All I'm saying is that at least he knew how to gameplan the offense based on the talent at hand, vs the talent he wished he had. We have to change our current scheme if we want to compete. Playing straight up is getting us slaughtered. I have yet to see us run a RB screen, WR screen, reverse, halfback pass, shovel pass, outside tackle pitch. Get the ball out of the pocket and out of Bower's hands as quickly as possible. Ross with the ball in his hands is not a + matchup.

Haha. false start. Morans.

Clearly, the OL and DL are in horrible shape too but without quality skill players this program won't win more than 3 games a year.

Paul is looking good.

Baldwin has about as much to work with on offense as Buh did when he ran our defense and we know how that turned out,,

---

Baldwin had less to work with at EWU and he had better offenses than this, even when they played FBS competition.

Just a meme. Calm down.

Washington still hasn't come out of the locker room after halftime, maybe offense can take advantage.

Our D, when given time to breath, can actually be decent.

I think we have more tfl yards than offense

Maybe true. Hopefully Wilcox is good enough to build a team, regardless of who is right here! haha.

We get a deep route open and nothing. **** everybody

QB keeper, that's new.

OH MY GOD.

Why is cal so bad...always. aside from like 7 years total, that play, like the fumble at WSU is Cal as hell.

Jesus. That was horrible.

OMG

The announcers have already tuned out the game in front of them.

This offense is collectivity God awful.

Wish dykes recruited more receivers
