It would have been nice to really put them away earlier in the game, we had the opportunities but defense struggled and a couple of bad turnovers by offense and special teams. Overall though, the game never really felt in doubt and happy to get a W on the road. Now let’s get the boys focused for a big game next weekend.

I'm satisfied with a win this game. This was the definition of a trap game. First road game, first game outdoors, first game against non-ranked opponent, big rival the following week. This had the trappings of an Idaho St. kind of situation but the team won.

This is conjecture, obviously, but I think this was a pretty vanilla game intentionally. The defense didn’t pressure all that often, we played a lot of off-coverage, and our offense was moving the ball well enough to not need to do much pre-snap. There wasn’t much in terms of trickerations, and it seemed almost like a preseason game. Hate week now, I think there will be a little more fire under their asses

Also it's time to "Release the Brockstar"!

I have more thoughts on this one too:

-time for Griebel to be replaced as a returner

-the screen game was definitely snuffed out

-defense didn’t get home quite as well in this one, need a better effort against a better OL next weekend

-for God’s sake, ball security

-definitely not the same energy as when they’re playing at home in front of 3500

-All said, as long as Bubba keeps doing the Griddy, I’m happy

during the game or was he out?

I take back my comment.  I didn't see a moment where he got banged up (thought there was a catch where he lost his shoe but that was Weah who lost his shoe during a run)

He did play, caught 7 balls for 47 yards.

When the camera went to Weah limping, I taught Weah was hurt. Then he adjusted his shoe!
