What a disappointing way to lose...that is on diaco for screwing the first half...

Another opportunity to get over the hump. As exciting as the second half was that 1st half just can't be ignored..

He looked good in practice, might be one of those players that does not have "it" once the games start.  Sure looks like he doesnt.  

Look at our pass defense. Uncle Rico would look good against the NU secondary....

Hats off to the team for playing the game out. I'm very confused what Oregon was doing in the 2nd half, trying very hard not to lose. Their coaching staff went into the "don't mess up" mode and nearly lost because of it. 

Good job to the men in red for not giving up.

Bring on the Patrick O'Brien era?

o hell no.  The coaches know the players and if he was ready they would have him out there already.

This assumes a level of competence in the coaching staff that has yet to manifest itself on the field.

I feel better now than I did at halftime.

 

This is a rebuild.  We've known this.

Their coaches tried to give us this game but ours didn't know how to get it. I agree that Riley will be happy with this

What I really didn't understand was the complete failure of clock management. Yes we had a chance but had we played with any urgency late I believe we get 1 maybe 2 more possessions. 

 

Also why the hell was every pass play off of play action at the end of the game. They knew were we throwing and it didn't suck the backers or freeze the safeties. In fact they would have loved us to ran and get 5 and waste 35 seconds of clock. All it did was make the pass plays have to take tanner longer to get set and deliver which in turn allows the d line to get push Like they did. 

 

As for the last INT. I see and hear people saying he was throwing into coverage regardless. I think he was trying to go deep on the post route on the sideline. It was man coverage on that WR so not a terrible idea but with two minutes not needed. 

 

Also did diaco learn 4 linebackers can't cover 4 wr and a speed back on pass plays yet?? 3rd downs and turnover tell the story. Bend but not break sure as hell broke hard today. I fear what will happen all year.

I don't like urban much but day 1 these are your players. Own it

I'm not sure this is a rebuild. I fear this is a place-holding.

We gotta get talent and we gotta coach it up.  I'm not high on Diaco, though.  He's not aggressive at all.

[skers83]

A rebuild? Of what? Riley will forever be rebuilding.

totally pathetic.  Cant beat an unranked pac 12 team.  We used to play and beat the likes of UCLA in the Osborne era routinely in mid Sept.  My how things have changed 

We got rolled by UCLA 3 years ago. Time to wake up and realize this isn't 1995 anymore.
