    That is the 2nd missed PI that should have been called on Utah.

    Wasn't it a little bit crazy that ESPN doesn't even show a replay of that play, probably the most important play of the game?

    Did anyone else notice that Utah's QB takes a step with his left foot before the ball is hiked on just about every play. Isn't that a false start?

    offense is allowed one backfield player in motion before and during the snap. It would be illegal procedure if another Ute was moving at the same time Rising stepped back

    Side note: The rest of the NCAA’s probably love PAC-12 officiating. PAC-12 officials have a long history of being some of the worst officials in the NCAA’s. They’ve often gone out of their way to make controversial calls to take out the top team(s). See it year-in, year-out, nobody who the top teams are.

    Then, you watch Big Ten. Their officials are like, “How can we ensure Michigan wins so they can stay in the CFP picture? We want Big Ten reppin’!” That late PI to help Michigan was lame….

    Ducks gutted out a win with a hobbled Nix and missing 3 starters on the OLine, including their C

    Dillingham need to shitcan the trick plays. They have all been disasters the last 2 weeks

    sure looked like, for the first time this season, Lanning was calling the shots on defense; or at least co-signing on a lot of the plays

    after last weeks absolute defensive disaster, something needed to happen. Tosh Lupoi's seat may be getting a little hot

    I think the judges are too busy looking at the line of scrimmage to look back at the qb in shotgun for that penalty since QB’s rarely have infractions. It’s usually the center.

    Lupoi has always just been known as an amazing recruiter. Don’t really think his game time coaching acumen is any great.

    So bring us some awesome recruits before you shit can him.

    I don't believe either Lanning "call the shots (plays) on defense" or "Lupoi's seat may be getting a little hot." are true.

    Utah doesn't have the speed to exploit Oregon's slower safeties and below-average pass coverage LB's.

    the speed of receivers might have been a factor, but I know, from watching the game, that Oregon played more press coverage and near press coverage, and man-for-man in that game than they have all season. Again, maybe that was a game plan based upon Utah's WR's, but it still was a major change in defensive philosophy to implement this late in the season. Of course, disasters like the UW game can cause that

    as for Lanning, yes, he sure appeared to take a lot more ownership of the defense. He had the defensive call sheets in his hands, and that was a first. And he was signalling in plays just about every time I saw him when the Ducks were on defense. Whether or not Tosh is in danger of being a 1-year DC I don't know

    Tosh didn't last long as the play-caller at Bama (only a few games I think).
