Washington had to go for it on at least 3 4th downs to beat us today. While that's no consolation for losing, I can say this is one of the first times I haven't felt embarrassed by our play against Washington since joining the Pac.
Plus, all of this was without our best player and our best corner.
Overall, I'm happy with the defense for sure. We need better punting, and I'd like to see us actually attack the mid distance middle of the field more often on O.
I like how aggressive he has gotten. We got burnt on that last TD play, but I'd rather force a team to make a play against aggression. I like the changes he has made to his play calling.Gotta give Eliot tons of credit. Dude called a hell of a game.
I’m not talking deep passes. How about an occasional slant? Skinny post? Roll out pass to an out pattern?How much of that is not trusting the OL on a deep pass play until there have been a couple first downs to tire the defensive front?
If you read it, it wasn't.No posts about this being some sort of moral victory-we had a ton of chances.

I was just going to say this. He is very bad player. How did he end up D1 let alone a starter?Tonz is wigley level terrible

And never once did I say I was happy with keeping it close - just that it's the first time I haven't felt embarrassed.Two things in your post stood out-One, you mention that they had to go for it three times on fourth down to win. Two, you say that we did this without our best player and best corner........sounds like a moral victory type of post to me.
It was the players for the most part, but as we’ve discussed ad naseum, we aren’t going to win these games until we recruit better on the OL.
Dude is so weirdwe should all be so lucky to have someone that loves us like holic loves Tonz

Game over without a turnover
I blame Nik
