Re: 2023 PAC-12 Game Thread
Last weekend I was pretty proud Arizona beat a ranked UCLA squad on their last road trip to Tucson but watching how bad the Bruins look tonight Vs a conference worst Arizona State team that's wingin' it with a limited roster, but now I don't know.
It's taken the Bruins Defense way too long to make of a point of blitzing Bourguet and getting after his hobbled mobility. But then again Bourguet is playing well enough through a lot of pain and limping, and he got rid of the ball quickly on that last drive. He's keeping ASU's offense on the field.
On the other side of the ball, where is Keonte Moore? Benched or injured? Boy do the Bruins miss an efficient, heady QB like Garbers. Both Moore (last week Vs us) and Schlee are inaccurate passers.
Weird game.

The only rational explanation is that Arizona breaks teams

Re: 2023 PAC-12 Game Thread
Did we just witness the first time a team has ever had 4 illegal movement calls on a 4 down in a row?
And they were on purpose??
Lose 20 yards going backwards on purpose, just to punt the ball.
Lol

UA was called for a random offensive pass interference call, but this much worse by a large matter of degree.

Colorado getting boat raced. Appears we broke another team even if they were already mostly broken at this point.

Re: 2023 PAC-12 Game Thread
At this point not sure why the big 12 wanted Colorado or ASU
i was going to put the ua/asu records here...but i forgot what they were.

Re: 2023 PAC-12 Game Thread
I feel like they were pretty much forced to take ASU because of us. And they took Colorado because... they used to be there?

They took Colorado because they needed a domino to fall and start the exodus.

Re: 2023 PAC-12 Game Thread
Colorado and ASU both have better storied football programs than Arizona has, along with having major media markets. PHX is #11 and Denver is #17 in Nielson ratings. Wasn't that why the PAC picked up Colorado, to get the Denver market?
Rado's CFB NC was only 7 years before UA's MBB NC. ASU has 7 sole football conference championships in the WAC/PAC eras. UA, obviously has none.
UA has an elite MBB program, although it's been 2 decades since the Final Four, but football is where the money is at.
All obvious of course.

Washington just barely beats Oregon St. And of course they get called Washington St. right when they secure the win...

Re: 2023 PAC-12 Game Thread
So depending on if we go to the title game or not, definitely looking like the Vegas bowl or the Alamo bowl. I'm sure Vegas would really like us but we'd probably be playing a like 7-5 Illinois or 6-6 Minnesota in that game. We'd probably play a ranked Oklahoma or Kansas State in the Alamo bowl

Washington & Oregon both looking like the teams they were in the first half of the season.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

Everyone thought Oregon would dominate this game based on the last 6 weeks

Oregon makes up for not covering WRs by not tackling well.

Re: 2023 PAC-12 Game Thread
Washington’s OL has shut down Oregon’s blitz. Ducks defense looks disorganized with too much mass subbing. And Ducks have no answer for the Huskies elite WR corps between McMillan and Odunze.

Announcer is right: Nix is off balance as he throws. Even that sweet sideline route pass came as he was stepping to his back foot.

I was surprised UW didn’t call a TO at end of half. They probably could have had 30 seconds and a TO to get a FG after the UO TD.

Re: 2023 PAC-12 Game Thread
Same here. Bunch of sad, dumb Ducks tonight.
For having a defensive background AND highly rated defensive players across the roster, Dan Lanning’s defense utterly failed tonight. Gave up 481 yds and folded like a scared poker player down the stretch.
