What happened to Sefo?

He seemed off today. I know he got sacked and pressured a bunch. Was Stanford's rush rattling him? Was their coverage that good?

Thank god Lindsay was able to run the ball.

It is a good thing that he is taking care of the ball. Still no INTs.

Anyone have any ideas?

Maybe a Wednesday post. Sure as **** not a Saturday night after a monumental (however ugly) win post.
 
he was off today and threw some really poor passes. if he hits the passes he usually hits, we rout these guys even with the kickers missing 3 and a td called back.

but, he rallied. he held in there and despite the lack of success, our offense stayed on the field long enough to rest the defense and allow them to play tough against a physical stanford offense.

we have a really good team here. score a bunch and win. score a few and win. change qbs and win regardless of which is in.
 
“We’ve got to go back and look at the film,” said CU quarterback Sefo Liufau, who was uncharacteristically off- target, particularly early in the game. “I know I wasn’t at my best today, but that’s why you have teammates to pick you up. We’ll have to go back to the tape to see why we didn’t push it in.”
 
and, did i mention that i ****ing love our offense? seriously. we are running the ball with ****ing authority from a no-huddle high-speed offense. we are ****ing dangerous mofos on offense.

one thing i might look at, tendency-wise, right about now in the bye week... long gain via pass play is almost always followed by an inside handoff while the defense is still gassed. i might try to switch that up since it is on film, a lot.

Eh. Would rather defenses try to stop it. If we keep doing, it means they can't.
 
I kind of attributed it to the process of exorcising the road demons that have haunted this team for the last several years. Sefo was sidelined for the last two road contests this year and especially against a team that is a tough out he struggled a little today. This is his fourth year here and the team has characteristically lost games like this over and over again. Hey, he got through it, the team got through it and the fanbase survived as well. Great win in Palo Alto today and with the monkey off his back I think he will be strong for the next road game.
 
We won.

It wasn't pretty, but we won.

Now we have a bye week to sort some stuff out, heal up a bit, and get ready for some UCLA ass-kicking .
 
Sefo was throwing some worm burners today. Also made some throws and found other ways to move the sticks. Most importantly, he didn't turn the ball over. I doubt he's happy with how he played, but he did a hell of a lot to win today's game with excellent game management and toughness. Week off will probably do him good.

That strike to Fields was beautiful.
 
Warrior Sefo would never mention it much less use it as an excuse but I wonder if he is still feeling the ankle.

He ran effectively today so it is obvious that he is healed up enough to play but I wonder if soreness or stiffness in the ankle is impacting his throwing motion. He didn't look like he was entirely comfortable on some throws and he had a lot of passes that weren't on the mark like we have come to expect this year.

High ankle sprains are notoriously slow to heal and painful to play on.
 
the guy threw a 65 yard td strike on the button on one leg at michigan, right after the injury occurred. i would hazard a guess that he just had a bad day and that his ankle pretty much had nothing to do with it.

Bad chowder in Palo Alto... He'll be ok by UCLA. He just needs a few cups of Kool-Aid and film.
 
When the dust settles on this season and the trophies are in the cases, a narrative will emerge.

And that story will tell of a leader whose commitment to the Buffs was unshakable, even as a recruit. How as a true freshman he was thrown in the fire. How he would take a beating--and in the words of Robert Earl Keen--laugh at all those sonsabitches who said he'd never get back up.

And how he led the Buffs to Tomorrow-morrow land. Captain Walker.

He moved the ball effectively on quite a few drives. Red zone effectiveness was not great, and the missed FGs hurt. If we connect on those, the scoreline is much different. He did a great job on his reads and didn't try to force any throws. Defensive play giving the offense some breathing room.

It looked like Sefo was really favoring his knee after one play, then ended up scrambling for like an 8 yard gain on the next play, and I didn't really see him favoring it again after that. Guy's pretty amazing.

They should consider renaming the annual Buffalo Heart Award in his honor. I can't think of a person that better exemplifies the traits that award is to supposed to represent.
