Hoping for a Great Game (and a Ute Victory)
The first question is, is Lanning looking at Auburn? I sure as heck don't think so and have seen nothing CREDIBLE that would indicate he is. Additional questions are whether Dillingham the candidate is interesting in being THE candidate with the unknown sanctions pending and better jobs in the future opening. I realize it would be a homecoming for him, but ask Willie how'd that work out for him. I think in Mari's case, he'll survive quite a bit longer.

Lanning Was Out-Coached
Win: your brilliant or LUCKY. Lose: your not or UNLUCKY . Win: you out-coached your opponent or were LUCKY, lose: you were out-coached or UNLUCKY. That's fans, media and critics from the other perspective. He who wins gets to write the history.

Lanning, Players Convey Confidence in Backup QBs if Bo Nix Can't Go

Dan Lanning Weekly Press Conference | November 14, 2022
You are correct, but he also was burned earlier in the game on the long TD, and was he part of the "mis-communication" vs Colorado?

Two Cents Worth .... Nix Injury
I think that player baited Bo when he saw the formation and knew what was coming. I'm not sure we will ever see a targeting call on a below the waist tackle.

Tough Question: Are These the Right Defensive Coaches?
Lanning has been around a large number of coaches and compiled a list of who he would hire. So, based upon all the other hires, I'll trust in this one also.

The Head Coach is Brilliant...When?
This onside kick would have worked had it not been kicked so far. The ewe dub defender seemed to backtrack more than the UCLA guys. The ball just went almost 5 yards further. I was Ok with it, since we weren't stopping them anyway. The play Nix got hurt on, we were baited into that run. They "showed" the same D to the same formation Nix scored on, Hind sight indicates a Nix jump pass to a TE would have been nice to see there. Just like a naked bootleg by TT on 4th.

Tough Question: Are These the Right Defensive Coaches?
I think it is a combo between players and coaching. You coach what you have to their strengths. If your DBs are weak, you need to shield them with your line and LB play. If you can't due to personnel, you're screwed. I would think with the players and supposed coaching chops we have, a better result should be happening. Not record wise, just scoring and yardage wise.

I Can Admit When I am Wrong....
TT's 5* was not a consensus and one site that gave him that rating also said some of it was based upon potential. It would be nice to see what he could do with a full playbook and the first team around him. Of course, according to our "coach speak" 1A, B & C was not clear cut in the spring or early fall . . . yeah, right.

Ducks Give Away Win to Huskies
Correct. However, I thought the replay showed our player with the ball firmly in his hands and stomach with the WR grasping for it. But, we'll never know.

Ducks Give Away Win to Huskies
Agreed, have to keep kale on the diet 2 mas anos. Goal line fumble wasn't too costly as it really just took time off the clock as we held and then drove down and scored. Pass defense = oxymoron. Bennett burned twice, second one especially bad since it looked like if he takes the correct angle, he has a chance for the int. Passing, yes weird only 1 TE catch. Nix's injury, the insult was that it looked like he was baited into that run as the tackler was lying in wait and brought the woodshed with him. Heck, even I knew it was essentially a repeat of the earlier scoring play (fool me once . . . but there was "no shame on" me follow up). Also agree with punt on that last 4th down. It looked like Auburn 2019 2.0 only with Bo literally on our sideline. Why not have Thompson run an RPO, or naked bootleg on an earlier down. Injured center, back up also at guard. Needed a little more coaching prowess there. Also brings back memories of Chip vs Fairley in the BCS. Lastly, these are the PAC 12 refs, why not challenge the tug-o-war int/catch. It sure looked like we (don't remember who, Gonzo?) had the int, possession and a knee down before the ball is ripped away.
