There is nothing wrong with a coach being empathetic, but the team's response to what happened was not overly positive. I don't know what went on in the locker room during half-time, but the third quarter would leave me to believe there wasn't much leadership being demonstrated and that starts at the top.
Maybe im reading this wrong, but the defense started the 3rd quarter with a 3 and out (with a sack).  Then the offense drove the ball 60+ yards that ended up with a 30 yard field goal.

The defense didn't give up a score the entire half, not a single point. Dude is a weirdo. Just like last week when he was crying about the d-line who gave up like 20 yards over 30 rushes and had 4 sacks against Stanford.

Are we just conveniently forgetting about how abysmal the offensive side of the ball was?

Sure, the D performed admirably but I can't excuse the offense which looked like a complete clusterfuck. But hey, let's feel good about a close win against Southern Illinois. It's not like the schedule will get any tougher.....

Lots of sunshine pumping on FB about Will Howard. I really want to believe, but I just can't. Not until he actually shows us an ability to lead and not buckle under pressure.

Will has only thrown two pick sixes in his entire career, I doubt he throws two in the first two possessions Saturday!

I should rephrase. I meant Will Howard will likely turn the ball over in such a way that it allows Nevada to easily score 14 points, not that he'll come out of the gate and throw back to back pick 6's.

I think we can overcome 1 INT or fumble, Probably not 2.  Their defense is dogshit so hopefully we bludgeon them with the 3 headed monster and only throw when they stack 8 in the box.

I fear he won't check out of a run play in an 8 or 9 man box with obvious pressure coming.  Beyond the over throws, pick six and not just falling down when the nose tackle was standing on top of him .005 seconds after the snap.  If they haven't given howard the ability to check out of a play, they need to do the check with the sideline spoon fed offense.  I felt like SIU at one point didn't care if it was obvious where pressure was coming.  *admittedly i could be cherry picking a handful of plays, but it felt like it happened an awful lot.

Having a 6’6 tight end that can run like a deer is pretty great

I have no problem with us running the 2011 CK7 offense with Will Howard where he carries the ball more times than he throws it.

Based on my review of Nevada's games so far: their run defense is total garbage.  K-State facing this defense this week is a godsend.  Truly a miracle.

Cal's running backs rushed for 7.5 ypc.  They gave it to their RBs just 21 times. SMH.  Meanwhile, they threw the ball 38 times for 4.7 ypa.  Idaho State's RB also got 7.5 ypc.  F worrying about building up Howard's confidence this week.  Feed the runningbacks early and often.  I want the 3 headed monster to get 40 carries.  Let Howard carry it 10 times too if he wants. 

They have an average pass defense and an above average pass rush in my view. 

Go rush for 300 yards, run 3-3-5 all game to try and stop that mad bomber crap they pull, and we should win by 3 scores.
48 carries for 270 yards, win by three scores.

:cool:

He had 3 or 4 chances to grab it and whiffed on all. Not trying to drag him. Just an observation from the slo-mo.

When he’s on the ground at the end and is eye level with it and completely missed the ball had me dying.  I’m sure he was terrified but man his brain and hands just couldn’t link up.

Poor Will Howard. Godspeed little man. Sweet dreams little man.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.
