No you're just incredibly negative! You can't wave a magic wand and just start beating teams like Washington. A year and a half ago they finished 3-10

You wouldn't have a field captain. I am sure that doesn't mean anything to you.
Take Gamboa away and see what happens. I hope to God it doesn't happen, but if it does let's remember this little conversation.

Still feels like we are looking for a statement win for this program. It would have been Oregon last if not for their debacle of a season, even OSU beat them.
Regarding UW, better coached, more talented team won. I think Mac has done a good/great job getting us to win PAC 12 games, even compete for division titles. The next step will be tougher.
Montez is young and still relatively inexperienced. These days will happen. I thought he ran with more authority today. UW played him like a fiddle. I think he'll be a solid qb for us. Expecting him to be good at so young, just not realistic. He doesn't have a blue chip pedigree so we're going to feel these learning curve days, probably with an L in the win/loss column.
Trenches have to get bigger and front seven more athletic. UW brings SEC mentality to the trenches. CU needs to aspire to do it more like that.

Mac has been frustratingly slow in some of these moves... I don't know if it is just being overly cautious or trying to make sure the foundation is legit, but there are upgrades to be made, and he needs to pull this trigger after thanksgiving.
I think it is because he is not showing full leadership, rather he is too cocky and needs to grow up. Not picking his ass up tells him to grow up and own your mistakes.
This game will help him grow up. I believe in Montez. He is a talent. If Lindgren is such a great QB coach, then he needs to earn his pay this week. Montez makes unreal plays, and then makes freshman type mistakes. Technically he is a first year starter and has two more full years of starting after this year. He will get better every day, and he will need to learn these lessons now to make him better. I am happy that he will be our experienced QB for the two Fuskers games.
He's not in any danger of losing his job, so you can sleep well.
But you really are not paying attention if you do not see his liabilities. We are susceptible to stretch runs from here on out because he is really slow.
Oregon loses, they are not as good as many thought. They have a lot to work on. Arizona State is also not that good.

When a poster can't spell his own handle unbias(ed)buff, I smell nub.
Thankfully, there aren’t a whole lot of Pac12 defenses as disciplined as Washington. I am worried about @Utah after this performance because that’s a team who will let us make mistake after mistake and we likely need that game for win #8.
Lol’d at someone suggesting we only win 1 more game this season but I also think this loss was pretty eye opening. QB play looks like an adventure game to game when I hoped it’d be a strength.
I’m not prepared to lose to trash UCLA so please don’t let this happen.

Jones and Landman are likely far superior athletes. It is a matter of having a really smart coach type player on the field that is less athletic but knows what is going on. Landman and Jones need to make rapid improvements in the film room and above the shoulders and then maybe they take some playing time away. As crazy as it sounds, we are more built as a roster to play the 4-3 than the 3-4???

Can UCLA run the ball on us? I trust our secondary but don't trust the Buffs against anyone that can run the ball
Great question, and I hate UCLA and so happy to see UCLA losing.

WTH? Gaskin is probably better than Lindsey, but who else in the Pac12 is better?
I love Lindsey but you can't be serious... Love from Stanford and the two guys in USC, at least.
Love Lindsay too but Oregon has a first rounder named freeman
Relax, I am a huge PL fan, but
PAC 12 RB order:
1. Robert Jones
2. Royce Freeman
3. Bryce Love
4. Myles Gaskin
5. Phillip Lindsay (however, his receiving makes him potentially more valuable than Gaskin and Love)

If UCLA can run on us it's going to be a long season. They suck at it.
Nine new defensive starters & Steven, etc found out tonite you cant have three turnovers and a blocked punt against a final four team. Not to mention 100 yards in penalties.

Put Lindsey behind USC or Stanford's OL and see what he would do. Put any of those players behind our line and they won't do what Lindsey has done over his career.
He is far from the only QB who does that. Seems like some guy called Sefo threw a few.
He is making the mistakes of a you raw QB who hasn't had the coachig and experience.[/QUOTE]
There is a future NFL guy named TANNER LEE about 500 miles to the east that throws Pick Sixes on a daily basis like taking a morning deuce
You don't need OL to see a guy's strength, burst and top speed.
The blocked punt would've never happened if Montez showed more awareness and dove instead of slides. Hopefully he grows and learns from this game
