I most likely won't be able to be online during tomorrow's game, so do me a favor and play nice in the game thread

I have been diagnosed with AZ football depression. I have tickets to the game, a tailgate to hit, it is homecoming, they are serving beer in the stadium...I just can't get off the couch to make the drive down to Tucson.

Well as usual the remedy for AZ football depression is AZ basketball. There's just no life in the program right now and it goes beyond the losses. As another poster mentioned earlier, Arizona football seems like a rudderless ship right now. No leadership, no direction, no identity, no bueno.

tate was in a boot for the Wildcat Walk but has it off during warm ups.

There is a black cat loose in the south part of the stadium. Since that’s Oregon’s end for warmups, surely that’s bad luck for them. Right? RIGHT??

Oregon and Oregon St haven't won on the same day in almost 2 years.

A lot of upsets today. Let's keep it going.

That's what David Kelly reported.

Did Oregon bring their cheerleaders? Would be the best looking thing at Arizona stadium in a very long time.

Doubt it - probably afraid of the water bottles.

No wonder it wasn't correct.

No respect for the UA defense since OU won the toss and elected to receive.

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:39 pm

Nice one on one tackle by Schooler.

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:40 pm

First Tate throw deep. The man was open at least. Just overthrown

DrWildcat · Post by **DrWildcat** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:42 pm

Well that was a good opening drive. Tate made the correct throws.

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:42 pm

Wow, offense looked great there.

RhettRod could not have made that pass, probably a pick

Who is this team? I don't recognize them.

BearDown89 · Post by **BearDown89** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:44 pm

Well that was certainly efficient.

OSUCat · Post by **OSUCat** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:46 pm

That was the offense I have been expecting to see. Some run, some run flat routes, with a deep ball here and there.

Gladiator Cat · Post by **Gladiator Cat** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:47 pm

what team is this

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:49 pm

Back to back 3 and outs by the defense.

And the offense is back to normal

BearDown89 · Post by **BearDown89** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:54 pm

That ineligible receiver down field has been a real pain in the ass this year.

OSUCat · Post by **OSUCat** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:54 pm

Then they go back to stupid play calling.

OSUCat · Post by **OSUCat** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:56 pm

Worse thing Tate can do is get long ball happy that he seems to do.

Another 3 and out by the defense

DrWildcat · Post by **DrWildcat** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:59 pm

Offense can't waste these possessions. They can't expect the defense to keep this up.

Merkin · Post by **Merkin** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 8:01 pm

Strange penalty. Hopefully this one won't be as painful as the other one. I don't think the UA defense can possibly keep this up

I don't think so either. Our O-Line just isn't good enough to sustain long run drives that eat the clock and keep the defense off the field.

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 8:05 pm

Does Tate ever throw to his left side?

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 8:06 pm

The fumble recovery!

DrWildcat · Post by **DrWildcat** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 8:08 pm

Looked like the guy over the middle was open.

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 8:08 pm

I guess Tate is incapable of completing short passes on more than one drive.

BearDown89 · Post by **BearDown89** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 8:09 pm

Not sure about the play calling there.

scumdevils86 · Post by **scumdevils86** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 8:09 pm

Amazing we're winning with such shit passing and playcalling as usual.

Never.

He doesn't even use the pocket anymore.

Best start of the season and it's only worth 10 points? That may not even win the first quarter.

DrWildcat · Post by **DrWildcat** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 8:11 pm

Playcalling hasn't been that bad. Its Tate's reads or lack there of...

Exactly. I am wondering what happened to the play calling from the first drive.

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 8:16 pm

Our third down offense is only microscopically better than Oregon’s right now

Too bad that RhettRod doesn't have Tate's arm, or Tate has RhettRod's football IQ.

But special teams has been outstanding for AZ

Robert A Booey · Post by **Robert A Booey** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 8:18 pm

Oregon's offense looks terrible. I love it.

prh · Post by **prh** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 8:20 pm

Tate is missing throws so badly this is embarrassing.

Low QB IQ. Every player on our defense probably wants to punch him.
