I don’t feel great about how it was won, but oh well. I think Nebraska gets theirs next week. GG Nebraska.

Hoover, just put it near Becker and/or Marsh and we go from a good team to a great team.

Hoover now has 17 TDs to 0 ints and he’s still going to be more criticized than he should be.

Honest to God I wish he throw a pick so we can just get it out of the way.

Upvoted.

But I feel good. OC and DC adjusted. Good win.

Very tough team. At their awesome stadium going wild.

Good win!

Yeah, the adjustments at half were clutch, contained the QB much better & might have been our best half all season from the secondary, still not great, but actually clamped down on some plays for once & in my heart had 2 picks.

Yeah, the roughing was a very tough call, taking that pick away. That's why it was so stupid to throw the unnecessary extra forearm shiver when they hit the turf. Up until then it was clean. Act like you've been there before. I don't blame the official there.

I don't know why it took until half to make offensive and defensive adjustments. In fact, both guys seemed to take until well into the mid third to find their stride. But kudos to both. Haines' side was ballin' once they covered more and rushed with four. And Shanahan (who I always think is the weak link, even as he regularly dominates , lol) had those big hitters.

Yeah, I'm sure they'll find a way to shit the bed like always, so I'm not putting too much hope in a W next week.

I do think he's improving, but the wind was crazy out there today.

Don’t worry Nebraska will find a way to tragically blow that Oregon game too

u/tynore 7d ago

lol did any other WR make a catch today?

u/TheGreatRavenOfOden Indiana Hoosiers 7d ago

Davion Chandler may have had one. Our young TE had a few
