Oh, so it's OK for others here to attack me, leave sarcastic smartass comments etc. (including you), but I can't say anything back. Gotcha.

Worse than 70-10 ???devnet said:

What's quite amazing about the UCLA game is the fact that UCLA ran 30 more offensive plays than we did, had roughly 200 more yards than we did, yet only won the game by six points. While UCLA as to be feeling good about their performance, they have to be a little concerned more of those yards didn't result in points. I think UCLA could turn out to be a very good team, but wow are they young. They have some growing pains. They have the athletes to play with almost anyone in the Pac 12, but the youth is probably going to cost them a game or two.

Yes, yes it is. Because personal attacks means attacks at the person.
There's a difference between, "You're an idiot so and so."
And, "That is probably the dumbest thing I've ever heard."
--At least, that's how I interpret it. It did take me 2 years to get on the Offended Posts thread, so I think I would know.
You're saying you'd rather lose 70-10 to Texas Tech, 45-17 to Wisconsin in primetime, get blown out by Michigan on the road, lose 49-3 to Missouri, get ravaged at home by Oklahoma State like we did in '07, than give up 650 yards to UCLA and lose by six points?devnet said:
Points matter far more than yards allowed. Each of those losses were far more embarrassing.

I can understand where devnet is coming from. Giving up 650 yards is atrocious, and it's something we didn't do in losses to Wisconsin or Michigan, or South Carolina in our blow out losses last year. Giving up 650 yards and only losing by 6 implies that 1) our defense didn't break, even though it bent a lot or 2) UCLA's offense didn't capitalize on all the chances they had. If you chose number 2, like devnet probably would agree with, then the score could have been a lot worse had they capitalized.
I disagree with that opinion, however. Was it the worse defensive showing? Perhaps an argument could be made for that.
But it is nowhere near the worse loss, because our offense was productive. It's not like we put up 200 yards and 7 points, we put up 400+ yards and 30 points. Not to mention we left a lot of points on the field as well. So no way has this been the worst loss since the 50s. No way.
