A stop here would be so fucking cool.

Considering the number of USLs in this game, a eye needs to cast at the coaching staff.

Cost us a legit chance at the spread.

I never thought it was realistic anyway. UNM demonstrated that they could move the ball last week. UA defence was always gonna be a work in progress after what we lost and new coaches involved. But it'll get better over the next couple of weeks.

I think it might take another TD to make it look like we deserve to keep the number 21 spot in the polls.

In the second half I think we were not out of position on defense as much as earlier. Showed some type of running game which they needed to do. Gave up way to many points but New Mexico's office looked nothing like their first game.

Offense is pretty much as advertised/expected and can be very explosive. Defense appears to be very poorly coached and undisciplined. Is basic tackling a graduate course at Arizona now?

A 22 point win is pretty close to what I thought it would be.

Now if we can't win by 30+ next week...

Gonna point out yet again that when they put Luke in at fullback it really helped out the run
