Oregon State offense looks great. For sure Cal has more talent. Hmmmm.

Tall TEs

Calbears93's avatar

We chuck it way down field and pray or throw sideways to a running back. We have talk TEs, serviceable or better receivers, and never throw to them. Just hard to understand.

Possibly the worst I have seen Cal offense play. Horrible play calling. Garbers just not a good passer. We have ZERO intermediate passing game.

SD23's avatar

The play designs are horrible too. Either everyone goes deep or everyone stays stays short. No mixing up the routes or decent check downs

This was just bad on all levels

Don’t see another win on the schedule.

Cal football and basketball maybe at all time lows. I don’t see that changing any time soon

Can we fire the AD first?

Did we just abandon Tight Ends? They didn't catch or block

This is the type of loss that can destroy the morale of a team and a program. The Wilcox era is in big trouble.

Every throw is either a check down or over the top. Never a slant, never a deep cross, never a seam route. Nothing ever in the middle 10 yards downfield. Why?

100% my biggest frustration with the program with Garbers at QB.

Calbears93's avatar

Exactly. I don’t understand it. Been years without that. Every mediocre program can execute that.

I was a Wilcox fan until now. This program needs grow some balls and just fire him. We done I’m ready for a new coaching staff

Well Wazzu outplayed us in every phase. They took advantage of the opportunities presented and we didn’t. Points for that one TD catch though.

First three losses were still close. This was a loss dominated by Cougs, and much worse than the score represents.

So now I'm back to Fire Musgrave bandwagon

Is Musgrave telling Garbers to checkdown on every 3rd down?

We’ll, College football season officially sucks just a few days into October. Cal is dead and the PAC 12 looks to have no one in the playoff. So much for the excitement of a normal season if this is Carl’s new normal

Why does Garbers keep throwing short passes short of stick

He can’t or won’t throw into tight intermediate windows against the two deep zone

Disagree, they’ve been ditching that question for decades. There will always be assistants willing to get paid less for a power 5 school. I’m the question is if the pac-12 will stay such with the changing landscape.
