Throwing the ball up for grabs should get blamed on the QB every time. Wilson does that a lot, and our offense pays for it most of the time. Baylor Romney makes better decisions than wilson and it isn't even close. I will take a smart QB over arm talent every day of the week.

So then he gets afraid to call them and goes back to vanilla 3 man rushes. Our coaches get out coached in every game where we are playing teams with equal or better talent.
He apparently hasn't coached them how to cover in a 8 man pass coverage then either. Which is stupid to say. I don't think he's the right coach for the job.

Maybe he should try flipping it and rush 8 and drop 3? I mean it couldn't hurt since nothing else with the D seems to work.

I agree with you on both statements.

I agree but on that play it wasn't all on Wilson. The oline has been owned by SDSU dline tonight.

This team has been so frustratingly hot/cold. You never knew how they were going to play week to week. I hope they figure it out going into next year.

Romney's decision making makes up for our coachs' ineptitude.

Wow that punt is the perfect way to end this game.

Frankly, I think that is asking a lot. Sitake's only consistent thing is his inconsistency. I was hoping they would hold off on extending his contract until he could show some consistency but that didn't happen either so we all have to live with this kind of inconsistent play for at least 3 more years.

I wish I could see the wide angle view of the field to see if the receivers really are being covered this well.
