Re: 2016 Poinsettia Bowl
Now they are throwing all over our defense. I hope the offense shows up on the next drive or we lose this game.

Re: 2016 Poinsettia Bowl
Our passing game still sucks. If we don't get our receivers fixed in the off season, next year will be a very long year.

Moroni Laulu pututau (or however the hell you spell his name) needs to be cut from the team. His uniform was perfectly white at the end of that game.

Re: 2016 Poinsettia Bowl
I love that it all ended with a Nacua interception. I love less that Wyoming was able to claw their way back into the game. But they looked like a good team, regardless as to what credit they get for it. So I'm grateful for the win.

Re: 2016 Poinsettia Bowl
What a sloppy game! I was not impressed with several QB decisions that Tanner Mangum made. The kid has Karma to get away with what he does.

Re: 2016 Poinsettia Bowl
It worked last year because we had receivers that bailed him out. This year and next year we will not IMO. At least I don't see anyone on the roster who will do it and we don't have a receivers coach anymore that is going to coach the receivers into some toughness.EM_Puma wrote:What a sloppy game!

Re: 2016 Poinsettia Bowl
Observations:
- Jamal Williams is a beast and will be missed.
- Mangum needs to sharpen his decision-making. There were several questionable throws including that ricochet ball that Balderee ended up catching. That sack on BYU's last drive was horrific.
- The defense was stout--but didn't get to the QB much. Couldn't get off the field on several long Wyoming drives. Overall good effort, and key to winning the game (Kai Nacua--who will also be missed).
- Add Hanneman to the list of guys who need to stop being reckless and picking up targeting calls. Those really hurt the team. His targeting ejection was in the 2nd half so he should miss the first half of the Portland State game.
- WTH Francis Bernard.....
- Moroni Laulu-Pututau needs to get his head on straight. Bonehead penalties at critical times really hurt. It could be overlooked a bit if he was far more productive than he was this year.
Looking forward to signing day and the march toward the spring game! Go Cougars!

Reinforces the reasons why Taysom was never benched. There was more wrong with the offense this year than QB play.frdbtr wrote:Our passing game still sucks. If we don't get our receivers fixed in the off season, next year will be a very long year.
