2-1 again for week 3, 7-2 overall, +$480. Should've went with my gut on both Miami and CU. That Miami line just looked way too low, made me wonder what I was missing. And CU....well, I just can never trust them to not be CU. Oh well, I can live with the only loss being the Neb/Ore game not going over since we won.

Couldn't agree more. I don't think I've ever been so happy to get a penalty ever. That really saved our behind.

There were plenty of times where the 3 and 4 man rush flustered Prukop during the game. I think Banker did a good job a mixing rushes on Oregon today If we would've brought 5 or 6 more times, I think he would've been an absolute basket case. Seemed we missed the opportunity to really exploit him. I know you can't blitz every play but damn, whenever we did it seemed to go our way.

It's also a little telling where their focus was in that sampling. 4 democrats and 16 republicans. I don't know crap about how biased Politifact may or may not be, I just absolutely hate reports like this. What's next, asking them if they still beat their wife? IMO, most of Trump's lies or false statements are made out of ignorance or bravado. Whereas HRC's are more genuine lies intended to cover her own ass. Trump's bullsh#t is pretty easily recognizable but hers are substantive and of a more critical nature i.e. made under oath or of matters where lives are on the line.

I won't argue that most everything that comes out of Trump's mouth isn't usually some kind of falsehood BUT a graph like this is very subjective. They rated 50 comments from each of these people. Which 50? How were the comments selected? Any one of us could make this graph look anyway we wanted to. I could pick out 50 things HRC has said that were all lies or false. It's petty politics. Fact is, all politicians lie plenty and Trump and Clinton are two of the worst. Neither one is fit.

Refs aren't going to call a perfect game. Sure they made some mistakes but it had no effect on the outcome of the game. The bad critical calls did not favor one team more than the other. I still maintain it was a better officiated game than most.

Yeah, I can't believe nobody noticed that until it was too late. Why oh why do guys drop the ball like that so often. It's not like it's a burden to hold onto it a few more seconds.

I didn't see anything questionable towards the end. They may have received one pretty tick tacky PI call early in the game but other than that it was well officiated. I saw quite a few holds they got away with and one blatant, critical PI call they were not flagged on. They've got nothing to complain about.

It's so refreshing to see the coach remain calm and collected in critical situations. It's paying huge dividends with the players not giving up and keeping their composure. This team won't quit and that is a huge testament to the coaches. I'm not going to go overboard though, Langs and Banker have to get a bit better at recognizing what is working and go that direction a bit more. It was a great win but I felt it could've been a little surer thing with a tad more rushing and more blitzing. But maybe those things worked as well as they did because we didn't over utilize them...IDK. Maybe I'm just gun shy from previous years. Probably take a few more like this before I don't expect things to go wrong at the last minute.

^^^ This.

I learned that Langs can call just enough runs to win a game. I learned Banker can bring just enough extra pressure to win a game. I learned that I still don't understand why both of them don't do more of those things. I learned that winning is possible when you don't kill yourself with penalties, turnovers, and bad clock management. Things are looking up. Good, much needed W.

Words; We want to throw the ball. Actions; Must. Throw. Ball.

Pretty sure Langs ran home for halftime....but he's back now.

Turned out great but I am going to have a coronary if the plan is to have TA make more touch passes.

DPE!

What happened to "we want to run the ball"? Good plan Langs, try to get cute with TA slinging it. Wtf.

Jeebus f'n krist. Catch the ball. Hold on to the ball.

F#ck

Very nice gesture. Thumbs up Oregon.

They're a lot more tame than their usual but I kind of like them. Should look good on the field with our home reds.

We ask for a chance that's fair.
